同学好～现在这个词已经比较中性化了。比如Merriam-Webster's Advanced Learner's Dictionary给出的解释和例句就是 1 play up (something) or play (something) up
 1 a : to talk about or treat (something) in a way that gives it special importance : to emphasize or stress (something)
  During the interview, try to play down your weaknesses and play up your strengths.
 1 b : to make (something) seem bigger or more important
  It was only a small achievement though our CEO tried to play it up.
希望对同学有帮助，学习进步～
