inform (in this context)

Spanish translation: la tuya me parece muy bien.

English term or phrase: inform (in this context)
The cortex depends on the amigdala's emotionally sensitive input to *inform* the timbre of its otherwise cold, hard, reasonable talk

como veis nos encontramos con el conflicto de "input" e "inform".
como mal menor lo he traducido así:
"El cortex cuenta con la información emocionalmente sensitiva que proviene de la amígdala para conformar el tono de su discurso, que de otra forma sería frio, duro y racional"


opiniones please?

As you can see, with minor changes and additions, your translation is awfully good, in a very difficult context, as I see it.

Just a note...


Explanation:
As you can see, I have granted my agrees to trebolillo and Miguel, but I notice that both overlooked your translation of "reasonable" [razonable] which you rendered as "racional" [rational]. So I thought I might as well call your attention on this...

HTH.

Explanation:
Por ejemplo:
"Para que la corteza transmita la información emocionalmente sensible que proviene de la amígdala, debe ajustar el tono de su discurso, el cual de otra manera sería frío, rígido y lógico".
