Talk:vanquish

The word "vanquish" is in the Harry Potter prophecy. It is necessarily equal in meaning to "kill Voldemort" or could there be any other more elegant solution that honestly fits in the lexical definiton of "vanquish"? 82.131.210.162 12:05, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

overcome (an emotion)
Should its meaning of suppress/subdue an emotion, feeling, or idea be added as a new one? --Backinstadiums (talk) 19:26, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
