The Australian Dictionary of Invisible Culture for Teachers
nice
adjective: a kind of something (see more)
When someone (e.g. Alice) was with someone else (e.g. Tim), Alice thought like this: I don’t want Tim to feel something bad because I do something. I want Tim to feel something good.
Because of this, Alice did some things, she didn’t do some other things.
This is good.
