How to use cheek in a sentence?
A kiss on one cheek makes her blush both cheeks. (Un bisou sur une joue Fait rougir les deux joues)
The eccentricity I value is essentially benign, a harmless individualism that reflects a unique, cockeyed view of the world, and spices up what otherwise might be a mundane menu, these eccentrics tend to be self-aware and tongue in cheek. They're winking at us. Some eccentrics, moreover, are just visionaries ahead of their time, like the early advocates of such eccentric notions as animal welfare.
Certainly the Catholic Church has never accepted passivism, the proper response of the Christian goes beyond turning the other cheek, which is an invitation to hit me again. The Christian response is more complex.
Well he, like, grabbed me with his nail, and I guess that's why it looks... definitely I was cut right here [ points to cheek ] because I can feel it. When I touch it, it burns.
What did that mean, to kiss? You put your face up like that to say goodnight and then his mother put her face down. That was to kiss. His mother put her lips on his cheek; her lips were soft and they wetted his cheek; and they made a tiny little noise: kiss. Why did people do that with their two faces?
