☆ lessen　減少させる
============================
The other day we learned “multiply”, this is the opposite word, “lessen”, or you could also say, reduce, decrease, or lower. Here are some example sentences:
Doctors recommend having a flu shot, to lessen the risk of catching influenza.
When the baby was born, the attention she paid to her dog lessened considerably.
The effects will lessen over time.
The government is looking for ways to lessen the impact of the new taxes.
Since they started therapy their arguments have lessened.
Can you make a sentence using “lessen”?
Bye,
Chris
