Basta così !
Sembra essere un incoraggiamento a smettere di piangere.

: Penso anch'io si tratti di questo, anche se ci vorrebbe maggiore contesto.

Certamente ed ha fatto bene Elena a chiederlo, ma visto che il personaggio piangeva, l'ho ritenuto probabile ... Grazie di nuovo e buon week end !

Ora basta/calmati però
b ◊Phrases like that will do (it) and that should do (it) are used in informal speech to tell someone that you do not want or need anything more.
▪ “Would you like anything else?” “No, that'll do it.” = “No, that should do it.” That will do it and that should do it are also used to say that you have finished doing something or are about to finish doing something. ▪ I just have one more letter to sign and that should do it. [=and then I'll be finished] That will do is also sometimes used to tell someone (such as a child) to stop doing or saying something that is bothering you or making you angry. ▪ That will do [=that's enough], young man: one more word out of you and you're grounded!

: Si, è vero, ma la mancanza del punto esclamativo nel testo inglese l'ho notata anche in altre occasioni ... Chissà qual'è il motivo ?!! // E credo infatti, che il motivo debba proprio essere questo ! Brava !
