    2. to alter — изменять, видоизменять, меняться, изменяться (обозначает не полное изменение, а лишь некоторое видоизменение, чем он и отличается от глагола to change или постепенное изменение в течение длительного периода, в чем он сближается с глаголом to change): to alter course — менять курс; to alter a dress — переделать платье That alters things/the case. — Это меняет дело.
