“discourage” in Latin

To deprive of courage, depress, frangere aliquem or alicujus animum (opposed to erigere): alicujus animum infringere, affligere or percellere: spem alicui eripere or auferre: animum or spem alicujus debilitare. To be discouraged, cadere animis (of one, animo; unless verb is plur.; Cic.): animo (or, of more than one, animis) concidere (B.G., 8, 19; which, however, Herzog says is too strong, and almost affected): percelli (perculsum esse, of the stale): desperare (to despair): animum demittere or despondere; se animo demittere (Caes., B.G., 7, 29): animo deficere (Caes., B.G., 7, 30). (The words are found in this connection and order.) debilitari animumque demittere (Caes., De Fin., 5, 16). To begin to be discouraged, animus labat. He exhorted them not to be too much discouraged, cohortatus est, ne se admodum animo demitterent.

Dissuade or deter from, deterrere, absterrere aliquem a or de re (or with ne, quin, quominus): repellere or avertere aliquem a re [Vid: DETER]: dehortari aliquem a re (or with ne: to dissuade from): dissuadere aliquid or de re. or ne aliquis faciat aliquid: avocare aliquem a re. ☞ Not dissuadere alicui aliquid, which occurs first in Sen.
