mitigate, militate Mitigate is a transitive verb, and is often confused with militate, which is intransitive and has another meaning ( to militate against something). Mitigate is correctly used as in the following example: ? That was wrong of me, but it in no way mitigates your own actions. It is incorrectly used in the following example, in which militates is wanted: ? This is certainly a problem which mitigates against the widest acceptance of the language. |
