Educe, evoke, elicit, extract, extort mean to draw out something hidden, latent, or reserved. Educe implies the bringing out of something potential or latent [educed order out of chaos]. Evoke implies a strong stimulus that arouses an emotion or an interest or recalls an image or memory [a song that evokes warm memories]. Elicit usually implies some effort or skill in drawing forth a response [careful questioning elicited the truth]. Extract implies the use of force or pressure in obtaining answers or information [extracted a confession from him]. Extort suggests a wringing or wresting from one who resists strongly [extorted their cooperation by threatening to inform].*I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
