文の構造がわかりません【高校英語】

 How many barrels of oil will your revenge fetch you ? (Herman Melville 『白鯨』より) 訳:あなたの復讐で何バレルの油が手に入るというのですか。 この文の構造がよくわかりません。 fetchが動詞になると思うのですが、だとしたらなぜ動詞の前にyour revenge が入るのでしょう? 回答お願いしますv

回答No.1

My revenge will fetch me X barrels of oil. という肯定文において,X の部分を how many にして How many barrels of oil という目的語のかたまりを前に出す。 後は疑問文の語順なので,助動詞 will が主語の前に出ます。 revenge が一種の無生物主語で,「あなたの復讐が何バレルの石油をあなたにもたらすのだろうか」 主語だから動詞の前にきて当然です。

revengeは名詞で、your revengeが主語です。fetchは助動詞willにつながる原型不定詞で、全体としてはfetchに基づくSVOO構文です。

無生物主語です。直訳では「復讐が…をもたらすのか」となります。 「復讐の結果どれだけの油が…」が自然な日本語になります。

  • 英語の解釈ができないんです。

    That is, the idea that if you have the courage to be different and to follow your own path, life will be more rewarding. まず、この文章を私は、 " それは(他人と)違うようになる、そして、自分自身が決めたことに従う勇気があれば、人生はそれ以上のことをやってくれる。と解釈をしました。 ..すなわち、私はここで主語はthat 動詞はisと思ったのです。... しかし、友たちは、that is, は "いわば"という意味で、the idea とlifeが主語で動詞はwill beだというんです..そうなると解釈がぜんぜん違うので ..この文の主語と動詞と正確な解釈をお願いします。 But what has been even more interesting, and sometimes disturbing, is to see which aspects of American culture are imported to and become popular in Japan. この文章でも、主語と動詞が分かりません。解釈がばらばらで、つながらないんです。よろしくお願いします。 If guns become as "cool" here as they are in America, how long can that last? この文章でも文法的な説明と解釈をお願いします。...

    英語でかかれこのたレシピの文を訳せる方教えてください 長くなるとは思いますが訳せる方お願いします お礼は必ずします。 Now let`s look at some scenes from his tv program,the naked chef . He doesn`t cook in a tv studio but in a real kitchen. Today we will make a salad with ingredients which are not usually mixed together-cress, avocado and potatoes . I t`s simple and it tastes great, I will take you through each step. Y ou`re going to need potatoes,avocados,cress,olive oil, lemons,salt and pepper. After cooking the potatoes in salted boiling water unitil they`re very tender , you drain them and leave them in the pot. Add salt and pepper. The potatoes will get their flavor from being mixed with the oil, I love olive oil and use it in many of my dishes. After the olive oil, put in the lemon. You can squeeze the lemon with your hands and catch the seeds inn your fingers. You don`t need special things in your kitchen to make delicious food. You just need a spirit of adven-ture! Peel and slice the avocados lengthways and add them to the potatoes. The avocados won`t turn brown because the lemon juice will protect them. Next we are going to add the cress. Have you tried cress? Some people think cress is not a cool food, but I love the taste. Don`t be afraid to use food because people think it is strange. You can cut cress when it is still in the package! Add it to the potatoes and avocado. Now that you have everything together on the plate, just mix it with your hands . doesn`t this look great! It`s brilliant with chicken fish or as a salad on its own, espe-cially in the summer. Give it a try sometime! お願いします
