What is the difference between attitude and tone. I read a lot about them but I couldn't see the difference. Plz help

[@SWLF]

Interesting question, Hassan. We would say the two terms mean pretty much the same thing. Tone is generally understood as the author's (or given character's) attitude towards a subject. So "tone" is a kind of attitude. Hope that helps!
