dulcet (DULL set) From the Old French word for “sweet,” this adjective means “sweet or pleasing to the ear, melodious.” It can describe a voice or a musical sound. Though there is a verb form—“dulcify”—which means “to sweeten,” no one ever uses it.

  • Phoebe played dulcet tones on her harp, but her husband kept right on reading the newspaper.
  • “I love your azure eyes, your delicate earlobes, the dulcet tones of your voice,” Tristan crooned, hoping to win his lady’s affections.
