補足に目を通させていただきました。 あなたが仕上げて記してくださった英文は、あなたの想いをかなり反映させたものになっていると思います。 補足にあるご質問に、お答えします。 （１）respectful sentimentsを「尊敬に満ちた態度」と訳していただいておりますが… ◆sentiment とは「心の状態」という意味で使っています。「態度」「心の態度」という意味をはっきり打ち出したいときは、attitude をお使いください。 （２）I wish I could live longer. は、「生きているからこそ、あなたの重荷となれるのだから」というような意味合いだったつもりなのですが、… そうですよね？ 私も日本文からはそういう意味だと思っていたのです。でも示された英文ではその意味になりませんし、そのニュアンスを出すことも出来ません。 Even if you are disgusted with me, I want to behave as I like. It is because I will be nothing if I die. にうまく続く形にするのが難しいなぁ… 「重荷」（burden）はすでに二回この手紙の中で用いられることになるので、繰り返さないほうが良いと思います（英語では同じ名詞を繰り返し用いると、陳腐になってしまうので、別の表現に置き換えてゆくのです）。 今まで、（英語的に見て）ストレートな表現を避け続けていますから、ここは少々ストレートな感じで love を入れてみてはいかがでしょう。 たとえば、次のような英文で、想いが伝わるでしょうか。 →It is the privilege of the living to love. 「愛することは、生きている人だけにしか出来ません」 あるいは、こちらのほうがいいでしょうか。 →It is the privilege of the living to seek love. 「愛を求めることは、生きている人にしか出来ません」 the living は the dead の反対語で「生きている人たち」の意味です（複数扱いになるので、their で受けています）。privilege は「特権」のような意味です。 仕上がった文章を見てみて、たとえば I want to ... が重なって使われてたりしていますが、この部分については問題ありません。最後に残そうと思っているメッセージに、敢えて自分の思いのたけを並べたわけですから、ここは大丈夫だと思いますよ。

Of course I didn’t want to cause any problems to you, but I think I can not die so easy unless I am strong enough to face my death. もちろん、メッセージを遺さない、あなたに負担をかけたくないという思いもどこかにありました。 でも実際、死と対面したとき、よほどの強さがない限り、そんなにいさぎよい死に方はできないと思っています。 It would be ideal of human being, but I am too scared to even imagine to die. 生ある者の理想論だと。 それを貫けるなら格好いいけれど、想像でも私はできませんでした。 After all I still love you. 私はやはりあなたが好きです。 I tried giving up from you, but I could not do. 忘れようと思ったけれど無理みたい。 I would be amazed if you think what a weird letter I sent. こんな変な手紙送って！と思ってくれれば逆に嬉しいわ。 I want to impose many burdens to you while I am alive. 生きているうちにもっと負担をあなたにかけたい。 I want to be more selfish. もっとわがままになりたい。 I want to rely on you more. あなたにもっと頼りたい。 You would be disgusted with me, but I want you to be. あなたを呆れさせても、そうしたい。 It’s because I would be nothing if I die. 死んでしまったら終わりだと思っているから。 Wish I could live longer. 生きてこそ。 At the end, Thank you for being patient with my poor letter. こんな手紙を読んでくれてありがとう。 However, it would remain you to think that I am stupid helpless girl better than a good girl. でもどうしようもない「お馬鹿さん」の方があなたの心に残ると思ったので。 I want to close this dramatize letter here. そんな演出でメッセージを締めくくります。

Although I want to be with you in Japan, I am scared about it. You said that the police would arrest you quickly and that worries me. If you get arrested and I live in Japan with you, what can I do? Where do I go? The thought that I may have to be alone and have no where to go scares me. Your parents do not like me, so I can't get help from them. This scares me very much. If we had children and the police arrested you, I would be alone with no one to help me. I am so scared by that thought. Also, during our whole relationship your anger has scared me. You are not a bad man, I know why you have become angry. But I am someone that cannot deal with anger well. I have bad panic attacks when you do become angry and become unable to talk with you. I am not calling you a bad person, you are a wonderful man. I just think our personalities do not react well. I know there is a woman out there that will compliment your personality better, a woman who does not panic when a problem happens. I just don't think our personalities go well together. I cause you to become angry easily and we both become hurt. I don't want to be hurt anymore. I am not blaming you or calling you a bad person. We both have our problems equally. When you become angry, I get very scared and stressed. Both of our personalities do not work well together. You deserve a woman that will not make you angry. I'm unsure what to say, do, or think. I just do not know anymore. I really hope you find a woman that works better with you. You deserve it. I think this is for the best. I am sorry I have been quiet lately, I have been thinking about this a lot.

I think 『I am attracted to girls who can look past the surface.』 I like to talk and I am usually attracted to someone I can be open and honest with. Also someone who can be the same. Someone who can just be real. Hope you understand. That's bad english (dont think you'll find it in a dictionary) but it means: Someone I can be myself with and someone who can be them self around me. ほとんど意味は分かるのですが、『』の部分の英文の意味がよくわかりません。 宜しくお願いします。

長文になりますが、おおまかで構わないので日本語に訳していただけないでしょうか？ よろしくお願いいたします。 ………………………… In summer in the year before last, I received a mail from a person. I felt almost was make-up story but various thinks about you were written in it. I understood the contents and replied my promise not to relate with you. However, harassment to me started by your friends, staffs of (店名) and your friends I had never related and it has been continuing until now although it becomes not so often as before. Even some of my friends were harassed only because being with me. (店名) is your working place and a place for your friends to gather. I guess they hope me not to relate with you. Because I had been told about you sometimes, I had a complicated feeling when I received your message via facebook. I thought that I would select my human relation and it would be possible for me to be a friend with you but I can not be free from the wavering of my decision to relate with you as a friend if I visit （店名）. I have to keep promise with your friends.... I do not know why your friends still stick to me. Because I have no relation with you now. I also have no relation with anyone who might have close relation with you. I do not know you have any engagement to such continuous sticking to me but I think it is a matter of mind of these people not of yours or mine. I am thankful to you for calling me your friend. However, considering my current position, I think that it would be difficult to be your friend. If you have good human relation now, I think that there would be no reason for you to keep on staying as my friend beyond it. What do you think about it? Please do not misunderstand. I do not take you into my confidence to hurt you. I want to tell you only why I have avoided you. If we have fate, we might be able to relate as ordinary friend.

Dear Mr. Norman Reedus: Hello. How are you? I am a fourteen year old girl who lives in Japan. My name is Hanako Sato. I am writing a fan letter for the first time. When I saw Daryl in the Walking Dead, I got to know you. When I saw you for the first time, I had thought you looked cool. As the story progressed on, I became much attracted to that you cared about others more than anyone and that you did the best to search her without giving up all the way when Sophia went missing. Although I saw only the Walking Dead among those you appeared so far, I will see more from now on. I am really excited how Mr. Norman acts. I think that you may have a lot of effort in filming from now. Please take care of yourself. I am looking forward to more activities. I will support very much. Could you send me a portrait with your autograph? I enclosed a return envelope with stamps. I know you must be very busy, please accept my request. May you be very happy! I like you very much. Sincerely yours, Hanako Satou 頑張ってファンレター書いてみました(>_<) あってるか分からないのでお願いします。

＞It is the privilege of the living to love. ＞「愛することは、生きている人だけにしか出来ません」 こちらを利用させていただこうと思います。 それと、第2番目の ～I can live until your birthday. なのですが、自分では、「普通に生きてきた」のではなく、「多くの困難を乗り越えて、サバイバル的に生きてきた」と言うほうが近い感じがするのですが、良い表現はあるでしょうか。 重ね重ね恐縮ですが、ご返答をよろしくお願い致します。
