Favoured

Favours favoured by those of my favourite people will receive them in plenty.

Judeo-Spanish, Djudio, Djudezmo or Ladino is the favoured language for Sephardic Jews expelled from Spain in 1492.

Shortly after, a suitor who was favoured by Lord Stair, and still more so by his lady, paid his addresses to Miss Dalrymple. The young lady refused the proposal, and being pressed on the subject, confessed her secret engagement.

But Lia was blear-eyed: Rachel was well favoured, and of a beautiful countenance.

When the Second Men had remained in their strange racial trance for about thirty million years, the obscure forces that make for advancement began to stir in them once more. This reawakening was favoured by geological accident. An incursion of the sea gradually isolated some of their number in an island continent, which was once part of the North Atlantic ocean-bed. The climate of this island gradually cooled from subtropical to temperate and sub-arctic.

My Chinese friend Don and I usually favoured watching sci-fi movies in the theatres, but as a break from that habit, he sometimes suggested that we see a "girly" movie.

My friend and coworker Jai, of a Hindu family, and I favoured having lunch at a Japanese restaurant.

I do not believe that there was ever in Spain a Minister so highly favoured by the reigning Prince, so powerful as I became.
