gruntle

v : cause to be more favorably inclined; gain the good will of; "She managed to mollify the angry customer" [syn: pacify, lenify, conciliate, assuage, appease, mollify, placate, gentle]

I love how the example doesn't use the word. That's classy.

But if you were regruntled were you honestly gruntled in the first place? Which means you would not become disgruntled again..just disgruntled..or perhaps it is a case of being demigruntled?

can you ungruntle? how about de-gruntle? at the moment i'm overly disgruntled at the gruntling that transpired over the idea of re-gruntling.
