distraite

Was Val to believe that under that charming exterior he was burning with the dull rage that kept her silent and distraite?

Mr. Rutledge, how have you managed to amuse my listless and distraite young niece so long?

She has to pretend to be distraite, for really she is very all there, and likes her dinner.

Her very silences are eloquent, and yet she is never distraite but always cheerful and frequently the brightest of the company.

She sat on thorns, and was so distraite she could hardly answer the simplest question.
