There is one new word needed to be corrected in L2.
The word is 调。It is marked as [tiao2] and [diao4] in our books.
For this lesson, it should be pronounced as [tiao2] only.
When the word is pronounced as [tiao2], it is a verb which means "to alter, to adjust, to tune, to turn up/down, etc."
If it is pronounced as [diao4] in other contexts, it is then a noun which means "tune" or a verb means "to switch, to transfer, to move, etc."
[tiao2]: the number "2" means the second tone of Chinese. There are totally five different tones.
