Dissuade and Eschew

Dissuade is a verb, meaning to convince or persuade someone to not do something. Dissuade is simply, the opposite of persuade, because they share the same suffixes.

Eschew is a verb, meaning to intentionally avoid something because of moral or religious practices. A common example would be vegetarians eschewing meat.
