cool
Calm and collected
Cool is mainly a designation of a usually comfortable place between warm and cold.
Cool relations or a cool reception, however, are uncomfortable because they are better when they’re warm.
To cool something is to reduce its temperature.
This is especially positive when it applies figuratively to tempers or emotions.
The adjective cool is a frequent, informal way to express approval or appreciation: He’s a cool dude.
