umut sözcülüğü


Definition from Tureng - Online dictionary:
"Caremongering", "scaremongering"den türetilmiş karşıt anlamlı bir kelime. "Scaremongering" korku tellallığı, felaket tellallığı anlamına geliyor.

Bunun karşıtı olan bir durumu anlattığından "umut sözcülüğü" iyi bir seçenek olabilir.

Bunu gerçekleştiren kişi de "umut sözcüsü" olarak adlandırılabilir.
