[字彙] succumb
Peter 提供的 succubus 讓我想到很像的 succumb
不過字義當然是不一樣的
succumbs; succumbed; succumbing
1. to yield to superior strength or force or overpowering appeal or desire
<succumb to temptation>
屈服、臣服、投降等類似意思，怎麼翻看上下文
Gina succumbed to temptation and had a second serving of cake.
2. to be brought to an end (as death) by the effect of destructive or
disruptive forces
病死、重傷而死等死法，怎麼翻看上下文
About 400,000 Americans succumb each year to smoking-related illnesses.
