I know this is not in dicts: the closest I can find is "to encourage" (Collins, Z)
but 你去劝他 is often used for a sad or angry person


都已经哭了4、5天了,谁去劝劝他 (to console)

MM伤心地大哭不止。朋友上前劝道:“是不是感情受挫了?要想开一点啊!

既然他生气了,你就去劝劝他。(to soothe, to talk round)
Diff:
- 勸 劝 [quan4] /to advise/to urge/to try to persuade/to exhort/
+ 勸 劝 [quan4] /to advise/to urge/to try to persuade/to exhort/to console/to soothe/
