مایه تسلی


Explanation:
این عبارت در اصل به جایزه ای برمی گرده که به نفر دوم مسابقه و یا به کسی داده میشه که خوب بازی کرده ولی برنده نشده.
consolation prize|جایزه دلگرمی

consolation prize: a small prize given to someone who has taken part in a competition, but who has not won
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/consolat...

اما به نظرم استفاده از "مایه تسلی" در در این متن مناسبتر است.

a consolation prize is also something that is given to a person to make them feel happier when they have failed to achieve something better

با توجه به معنی بالا میشه برداشت کرد که این عبارت صرفا معنی جایزه نمیده و می تونه هر چیزی باشه.
