Patronize 就是恭維的意思，而恭維一個人就是為了安慰人而假裝讚美或崇拜的意思，以下是一對夫妻的對話。
Wife: You are great. You make money. You provide for the family.
Husband: Don't patronize me. You make money too. In fact, you make more money than I do.
Wife: I don't care who makes more money. The fact that we stay together as a family is the only thing that matters to me.
Husband: You are right. I love you.
Wife: I love you too.
一開始先生說 Don't patronize me. 表達對妻子的不滿，因為妻子對先生說了恭維的話 (即使妻子是真心這樣說的)，在這裡使用 Patronize 就對了。
我們再看下一個例句:
A: What should we do?
B: Don't patronize me. You know exactly what to do.
A 為了給 B 機會表現故意這麼問，但 B 不領情，反而說 "別恭維我"。
