If a person was complemented for her "aconite" what does that mean?

Question

if a person is complimented for their "aconite" what does that mean? I could not find a definition that makes sense.

thank you.

Answer 1

An aconite can be a plant, maybe they were being complimented on growing a nice plant.

It really needs more context to know.

this is the context in which the word was used: "Dra Robin Rakov: absolutamente impresionamte por su **aconite**, generosidad en competent sus conocimientos. Nos ha encantado." - linsan, Aug 17, 2011

Answer 2

Well I am only a beginner but I can't find any direct translation of aconite, except the plant and from the garbled rubbish that comes out of he translator I would say Dr Robin Racov is being complimented on his knowledge of this plant. It does have medical uses so maybe that is it?

I would be interested to see what someone more competent in Spanish can make of it.

Dra. Rakov (female) is a behavioral optometrist. My friend went to visit her office and enjoyed her visit. In the context she wrote "aconite" has nothing to do with the plant. I am sure it must be an idiom of some sort from the Spanish spoken in Madrid - linsan, Aug 17, 2011

in that case why not PM Heidi :) - Kiwi-Girl, Aug 17, 2011

It is a homeopathic remedy. - lorenzo9, Aug 18, 2011

That is what I was getting at Lorenzo, not as clearly as you, but why would a behavioural optometrist use it? - MaryMcc, Aug 18, 2011

Maybe Linsan needs to ask her friend? - MaryMcc, Aug 18, 2011
