empreint d'une délicate tendresse instilled with (a) discreet affection Explication : Like I said, the wider context will almost certainly have a huge influence on the way to take this; but as you are seeking to avoid 'tenderness', then 'affection' is another viable translation; likewise, if you want to avoid 'delicate' (and it all really depends on what the writer really meant: whether it was with a light brushstroke, ...), then you might consider the other sense of 'délicat' and by extension 'délicatesse', associated with 'politeness', so maybe here the sense of 'discreet'. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 26 mins (2019-01-21 18:30:46 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Maybe 'infused' would be better; would have to read the actual book to get a better idea of how it comes across. |
