标题[请益] 外国论坛中,网友的回应(except..)
时间Sun May 21 20:33:30 2017
大家好,想请问一下
我在英语学习论坛提了一个问题,有网友回应,但我不是很理解。
----
标题:and (...) for EU supporters
内容:
‘Tactical voting’ is quickly becoming a buzzword for the UK’s June 8
elections, with groups calling for strategic alliances and for EU supporters
to vote for the least-worst option available.
---
I think the original sentence is
...with groups calling for strategic alliances and (with groups calling) for
EU supporters to vote for the least-worst option available.
Is my understanding correct?
Thanks!
网友回应:
Yes, except I'd say that you quoted the original sentence and offer a variant
to make sure you understood the original.

我试着就我的理解来翻译:
「没错,只是我会说你引用了原句,并且提出一个类似的句型来确认你明白了。」
不太懂对方想表达什麽意思?照理说这里用「Yes, and...」应该文意比较顺才对吧?
不太能理解英语人士的思维逻辑@@a

1F:→ kaifrankwind: 你都已经给出OK的翻译了... 05/21 21:41
2F:→ kaifrankwind: 他会用except他觉得你所谓的"original sentence"才 05/21 21:43
3F:→ kaifrankwind: 不是original 而只是一开始的变型 可以说这边他不是 05/21 21:44
4F:→ kaifrankwind: 拿那种"添字还原句型"的文法概念在理解这句 05/21 21:45
5F:→ kaifrankwind: 他觉得这是他跟你想法之间仅有的差异 所以except 05/21 21:47
感谢,大概了解了。
Yes, except I'd say that you quoted the original sentence and offer a variant
to make sure you understood the original.
原来关键在"and",查了辞典,这里的and应该是as a result的意思。
用中文的脉络来理解,应该是:
「没错,只是我会说『你引用了原句,但其实是』提出一个类似的句型来确认你明白
了。」
中英思维大不同QQ

感谢D大!您的意思是说,那位网友认为我是先"quoted the original sentence"
(也就是我前面所贴出的原文),接着则是"offer a variant"
(也就是後面从I think the original sentence is...开始的部分)
这样看来,我想应该是the original sentence这个词让彼此认知有差异,
其实用中文来说的话,我要表达的是「那原本句子(的意思)是...」,
可能我用英文表达时,用词不够精准,以致於有点鸡同鸭讲...。
