well .. since you are learning english, i will go ahead and confuse the hell out of you .. lol
mild is an adjective, but 'mildly' is actually an adverb (Adverbs can tell you where, when, how, why and to what extent something happens)
and you are correct that 'offense' is a noun, but 'offensive' is also an adjective.
a literal translation here would work 'docile offense' people would understand that .. but it just isnt used in everyday language and sounds awkward.
all of this over 2 words .. lmao ... this is great though, i have thought about this stuff for a year. im sure i will be bugging you over other things in the future.
