Swaps and barter in the playground, sentence 3
A swap made with a threat is not a swap at all but bullying, and a "swap" where you give far more than you get is really a gift, so call it one if that is what you want.
Who acts: swap, you, that · What happens: make, not be, give, get, be, call · To what, where: swap, all, more, gift · Speech: someone speaks here
