Today's vocabulary word – Amenable

Amenable” means “open to persuasion.” It doesn’t necessarily mean you change your opinion about something, but that you’re willing to go along with the other person to avoid conflict, reach a conclusion, or in some other way keep things moving forward.

Example:  “There are many movies I’d like to see this weekend, but I’m amenable to any suggestions or preferences you might have.”
