Chaaploosi (flattery) matlab kisi ki zaroorat se zyaada taareef, aksar usse kuch paane ke liye. Lomdi ka Raven ko "Sir", "handsome" aur bhavishya ka "King" kehna sab chaaploosi thi. Raven ke pankh asal mein kaale aur chamkeele hote hain; lomdi ne unhe shaandaar bataakar Raven ka ghamand badhaaya.
Dono kirdaaron ki tulna: lomdi chatur (aur thodi chaalaak) hai; Raven bewakoof aur ghamandi. Ise analogy mein likh sakte hain: Fox : clever :: Raven : foolish.
Ghamand samajhdaari kyun nahi? Jab hum apne aap ko bahut bada samajhte hain, to dhyaan se sochna band kar dete hain. Raven ko laga uski awaaz sundar hai aur wo bhool gaya ki kya pakde hai. Kitaab ke listening kaam mein Raven baad mein samajhta hai ki wo sundar pankhon ke bina bhi samajhdaar hai, aur doosron ko chetaata hai: ghamand se jo hai use mat khoo.
Tum kya karoge agar koi tumhari bahut zyaada taareef kare? Muskura kar dhanyavaad keh sakte ho, par khud se poochho: kya ye sach hai, aur ye insaan aisa kyun keh raha hai? Sacchi taareef humein badhne mein madad karti hai; chaaploosi fansa sakti hai.
