He defended himself, declared that he had done all that be could to dissuade her from going to see François, and ended by calling upon Rose to confirm him, for he saw that Félicité was scanning him narrowly with her suspicious eyes.
Il se défendait, il disait qu'il avait tout fait pour l'empêcher de se rendre auprès de François. Il finit par invoquer le témoignage de Rose, en voyant Félicité l'examiner attentivement d'un air soupçonneux.

The mention of the thing he thought he perceived was involuntary on Sam's part at first, and his confused attempts to dissuade him he set down to a desperate lying on second thoughts, as being unwilling to implicate Liza.
Il suspectait Sam de l’avoir tout d’abord indiquée inconsidérément, et les tentatives du noir pour le dissuader de la choisir lui semblèrent autant d’impudents mensonges faits, sur plus mûre réflexion, en faveur d’Éliza.

I will even add that your project seems to me so hazardous that any one versed in these matters whom you might consult would assuredly bring forward substantial and convincing arguments to dissuade you.
J’ajoute même que votre projet me paraît d’une témérité telle, que, sûrement, tout homme du métier, si vous en consultez un, vous en détournera par les raisons les plus solides, les plus convaincantes du monde.

He had altogether forgotten about the message which had been sent, for no message could dissuade the ever-present death he felt around him.
Il avait complètement oublié la communication qu’on avait envoyé, car nulle communication ne pouvait repousser la mort, toujours présente, qu’il sentait rôder autour de lui.

For all teachers who have had to correct their students' papers know how reluctantly these youngsters are dissuaded from playing the role of Minos or Osiris from behind their desks.
Car tous les maîtres qui ont eu à corriger des travaux d'étudiants savent combien ces jeunes gens se laissent difficilement dissuader de jouer, du haut de leurs pupitres, les Minos ou les Osiris.

Trouche, however, dissuaded her from attempting to carry out that design. They would no longer be able to eat and drink as they liked, he said ; they would not even dare to drink their wine imwatered, or to ask a friend to come and have coffee.
Mais Trouche l'en dissuada: ils ne seraient plus libres de manger ni de boire à leur gré; ils n'oseraient seulement pas boire leur vin pur ni inviter un ami à venir prendre le café.

On a broader note, it eludes me how according same-sex couples the benefits flowing to opposite-sex couples in any way inhibits, dissuades or impedes the formation of heterosexual unions.
Plus généralement, je n'arrive pas à comprendre comment l'octroi aux couples de même sexe de bénéfices auxquels ont droit les couples de sexe opposé gêne, dissuade ou empêche de quelque façon la formation d'unions hétérosexuelles.
Still, I was the husband, and when her madness came upon her I ought to have acted sensibly, and have warned and dissuaded her.
N’importe, j’étais l’homme, j’aurais dû, quand elle est devenue folle, me montrer raisonnable, lui faire entendre que nous allions commettre là un meurtre dont nous serions certainement punis...
