Compliment vs Complement

Kompliment protiv komplementa Nadopuniti

To complement is to make  something complete or better,  

znači učiniti nešto potpunim ili boljim,

often referring to a good combination of things. For example “Green clothes complement your skin  

često se odnosi na dobru kombinaciju stvari. Na primjer "Zelena odjeća nadopunjuje vaš

tone” – meaning that the colour green looks good  with the colour of your skin. Or “A nice red wine  

ton kože" - što znači da zelena boja dobro izgleda uz boju vaše kože. Ili "Lijepo crno vino

would really complement this meal” – meaning that  the wine would make the meal complete, or better. 

bi stvarno nadopunilo ovaj obrok" ​​- što znači da bi vino učinilo obrok potpunim ili boljim.

But to compliment is to give praise to  someone. For example, if you tell your friend:  

Ali dati kompliment znači dati pohvalu nekome. Na primjer, ako prijatelju kažete:

“that’s a fantastic oil painting!” if you  say that about their artwork, then you've  

"to je fantastično ulje na platnu!" ako to kažeš za njihov umjetnički rad, onda si

complimented them. You have given them praise  and encouragement about something they have done.

im dao kompliment. Pohvalili ste ih i ohrabrili za nešto što su učinili.
