添削希望

英文の添削を宜しくお願いします。 私は背が低い事がコンプレックスです。だからいつもヒールの高い靴を好んで履いています。 それに背が低いと視界も悪いし、高い所にも手が届きません。人から「小さいね。」と言われることも好きではないです。 I have an inferior complex about my height [ I'm very sensitive about being small.]and so I always wear high-heel shoes.[So I usually like wearing high heeled shoes.] And because of my hight, I only have low view, can't reach things that are put on high places, etc.. And I don't like poeple pointing out that I'm short.

私なら、こう訳しますね。 I have an inferiority complex about being short. That's why I prefer wearing high-heeled shoes. If you're short, you don't get a good view, and also it's difficult to reach things high up. I also don't like people saying that I'm short. 日本語の文章の流れが多少ぎくしゃくするように思えますが、できる限り忠実に訳したつもりです。 因みにinferiority complexはアメリカでは誰でも知っていて誰でも使う表現です。inferiorではないので気を付けましょう。

高校の英作文の課題なら、junglelawさんの訳の方が、一語一句正確に訳されていてベターだと思います。しかし、英語としてはギコチないですね。私の添削も これが絶対的な正解とは言えませんが、こういう訳し方もあるのだと頭の片隅にでも置いてください。私の添削は幾分 硬いかもしれませんが。 I'm worried about my short height. This lead me to prefer always waering high-heeled shoes. And beside my short height prevents me from enjoying a wide sight in addition to fetching objects placed on a high position. It goes without saying I'm afraid people mention my short height. 「complex」は日本語では日常語になっていますが、英語では心理用語の域を出ていません。sensitiveもいいんでしょうけど、「敏感」というニュアンスが強いです。それから、むやみに ただ文や節をandで繋ぐのも いかにも稚拙な文章の印象があります。それから、soなどを多用して文を繋ぐより、私の添削例のように名詞構文を使うとスッキリします。私の添削例のenjoyは 「楽しむ」という意味ではなく、「享受する」という意味です。reach thingsのthingですが、thingは 形のあるもの形のないもの全部含めて指す言葉で あまりにも漠然としているので、objectというふうに少し限定的な単語を使った方がいいでしょう。最後に afraidという単語は かなり幅広く使えますよ。

And I love children and America before. So, I decide to join this program!! I took care of my cousin’s son that he was 1 years old a day in two weeks. And I learned English from my cousin. She went to study Britain before. Now, I work for nursery school as a volunteer every day. I help teacher’s works, For example taking walk, eating ranch and changing cloths, especially 1-2 years old class. I like spending children.

And I like cooking. So, I will help willingly. Maybe it has many differences between Japan and America, for example rules, meals, of course language!

  • 日記風に、誰かに話しかける感じで書きました。添削お願いします。

    ここgooだけで勉強していますが、暫らく英文を書かなかったので、英語の文章が中々出てきません。再度、勉強をしなおさないとだめかと思っています。短い文章ですが、書いてみました。 Hi, my Crystal! The first, I must say to you “ I am so sorry! I haven't came here for a long time.” Did you worry about me? I have been well. How about you, Crystal? Sometimes I thought of you, but I couldn’t think and feel in English. I know I have to learn English day by day. Now my brain said to me “You can!" I should believe myself. I have you and you help me a lot for it. Crystal, I promise you that I will be learning with you. And someday I want to talk with you and my friends in English. Crystal, I have to make breakfast. So I say to you “Have a nice weekend!”

  • 添削お願いします

    I learnt a lot of (various) things about writing through this class, and it is my first time to write paper that has so many pages. I read some articles that related with my own thinking, and I connected it with my paper. By doing this, my thinking became more understanding for my audience. 「このクラスを通して、”書く”ことについて様々なことを学び、このようなペーパーを書いたのは初めて(の経験)だ。自分の思考に関連するいくつ化の文献を読み、それをわたしのペーパーに結びつけました。そうすることで聴衆によりわたしの考えを理解してもらえるようになりました。」 こちらの英文を添削して欲しいです。

  • 添削をお願いします。( remake )

    いつもお世話になります。<(_ _)>  添削をお願いします。 洋服に限らず、不要にになった物から、利用できる物に作り変える事が好きです。 Irrespective of clothes or others, I like to remake unnecessary things so that I can take advantage of them again. 以前、着ていたスカートをリフォームしました。レースをつけて、布地も紺色に染め直したら、思っていた以上に良いものができた。 I have just altered my skirt that I used to wear before. I have laced it and also redyed its fabric into indigo and it turned out a much better one than I had expected. 又は I had my old skirt altered. I also laced it and redyed the fabric navy. It turned out much better than I had hoped.
