savoir-faire


Explanation:
Seperti Laisser faire, this French adapted word named savoir-faire can also be used.

E.g: Oscar Wilde, has considered to have Savoir faire, although he probably would have said that he was more Laisser faire (i.e. lazy, disinterested).

Example sentence(s):
  • She possesses great savoir-faire.
  • A person who has Savoir faire is naturally suave and classy, or has the innate abiilty to do or say the right thing at the right time.
