ENGLISH IDIOMS: lighten up

in persian •  7 years ago 

lighten up

ساده گرفتن، جدی نگرفتن

(To add humor to a serious situation.)

I wish you would lighten up a little. You don’t have to take everything so seriously all the time!

کاش کمی ساده‌تر می‌گرفتی. لازم نیست همیشه همه چیز را این‌قدر جدی بگیری!

مثال دیگر:

He tried to lighten things up at the conference by telling a joke.

او سعی کرد در همایش با تعریف کردن یک جوک فضا را تلطیف کند.
