Fang Sheng: What's the difference between harmonization and "break in"? We now often see 磨合 being used in social terms, such as 进入新工作的磨合期；新婚夫妇需要良好磨合, can we use "harmonization" here? I think it's a better term than "breaking in". What do Westerners usually say? Thx!

-> Thank you for the comment, Fang. For new job, "fitting in" might be the phrase you are looking for. For newlyweds, I can't think off anything right off. Let's wait maybe someone esle with come up with a good one.

校准

Explanation:
在台湾开车，通常建议每5000公里就做一次「保养」，例如更换机油芯、检查剎车摩擦衬块及剎车圆盘。Harmonization 有”使和谐”的意思，用”磨合”或”调校”也都能明白意思，但原来使用”校准”一詞就已经夠清楚易懂了。
