・V2 Vocabulary Building Dictionary: composed and able to remain calm when facing difficult situations
Tips: When learning the word unflappable, think about a sail flapping in a stormy wind. The wind forces the sail to shake and move around uncontrollably. If someone is unflappable, he or she is not easily shaken by difficult situations. The term unflappable was first used to describe Harold Macmillan, who was Prime Minister of England from 1957-1963. Good leaders should be unflappable.
Example: In order to work in this frenetic, high-pressure job, you need to be unflappable.
