Three Definitions

I never use these three words because they are so similar that I become confused about which means what...So to get their definitions straight in my mind, I thought I'd blog about them.

After each word's simplified definition I've written a sentence to clarify how they might be used in context.

implacable: cannot be placated or appeased.

Despite the defense attorney's best arguments, the judge was implacable in his demand

that the full sentence be served.

inexorable: unalterable

He was confronted with the inexorable truth that his deception had caused her pain.

intractable: not easily controlled; stubborn

She had the mistaken impression that her intractable disposition was a virtue.
