cut him some slack.

cut sb some slack的定义：to not judge someone as severely as you usually would because they are having problems at the present time。也就时说，当某人表现不好或者犯错的时候，如果情有可原，就可以cut him/her some slack，类似中文里的“放某人一马”。举几个例子：

Tom is often late for work these days, but I’m sure boss will cut him some slack. After all, his wife just died. （Tom最近老迟到，不过我相信头儿一定不会追究。毕竟，他的妻子刚去世。）

I know you’ve been through a lot, so I’m willing to cut you some slack here. But, don’t you yell at me again, okay? Enough is enough. （我知道你最近不好受，所以我愿意放你一马。但是，以后别再对着我大吼大叫了！适可而止，别太过分。）
