smooth
Like polished stone
Smooth describes surfaces without roughness, bumps, or irregularities: smooth skin, smooth marble.
Movement can be smooth when free of jolts or interruptions: a smooth ride, a smooth transition.
A smooth talker speaks persuasively, often with implications of slickness or manipulation.
Smooth flavors lack harshness: a smooth whiskey.
To smooth something is to make it even or to ease difficulties: smooth the wrinkles, smooth things over.
