caress

/kəˈrɛs/B2

쓰다듬다, 어루만지다 (동사)

‘caress’는 부드럽게 쓰다듬는 것을 의미하며, 감정적인 색채를 띱니다. 여기서 ‘my first instinct was not to caress her butt’는 첫 반응이 그녀의 엉덩이를 쓰다듬는 것이 아니었다는 뜻입니다. ‘caress someone's face’처럼 쓰입니다.

Well, she told me she didn't have any I.D.,
and, unlike Boyle, my first instinct was not to caress her butt.
Frisked! I frisked her butt!
