Hayley教口語，“緩和”用英語怎么說？

/t??n/

tone n. 音調(diào);音色;語氣;色調(diào)

作動詞就是使聲調(diào)，語氣如何....tone sth down就是使某事某物的聲調(diào)語氣下降，不那么高亢，更平和些。

to make something less forceful or offensive, usually a piece of writing or a speech

使(通常指文章或講話)緩和;使溫和

Some of the language in the original play has been toned down for the television version.

這部戲被拍成電視后，原劇中的一些語言已經(jīng)被改得不那么激烈了。
