Pronunciation: tuff pav luv

Sentence: Anna used her psychological training to cure her boyfriend's bad habits.

Etymology: Tough Love (The use of strict disciplinary measures and limitations on freedoms or privileges, as by a parent or guardian, as a means of fostering responsibility and expressing care or concern.) & Pavlov (Russian physiologist who observed conditioned salivary responses in dogs)
