次の英文：文法で混乱しています
”Weather scientists call hurricanes by name to make clear just which storm they are talking abaut, especially when two or more take place at the sames times.” 以上の一文なのですが、whichの関係代名詞（だと思うのですが）の前後の訳し方が分かりません。 前半は 「天気科学者は、ちょうど彼らが話している嵐について、明確な名前で作るハリケーンを呼ぶ」 としてしまうのですが、日本文が変になってしまいます。 この前半部分の上手い訳し方、それと文法について説明してもらいたいです。 よろしくお願いします。

質問者が選んだベストアンサー
“Which storm are they talking about?” 「どの嵐について彼らは話をしていますか？」 疑問詞（which）を使った疑問文で上記の意味になります。 これを“make clear”という動詞のＯ（目的語）にするため、名詞節にするには、they（主語）とare（be動詞）をひっくり返します。 “which storm they are talking about” 「どの嵐について彼らが話をしているかということ」 という意味の名詞節になって、このことを「明確にする」ということになります。

No.4です。 whichは文法的にいうと疑問形容詞です。質問者さんがおっしゃる通り、名詞節にするためには肯定文でなくてはなりません。

はい、辞書で調べてみるとそれらしい感じでした。良く分かりました。ありがとうございました。

which は、関係代名詞ではありません。と言えば、文体がわかってきますか？

そうなんですか…。単なる疑問詞でしょうか。？？？
補足
すいません。よくｗｈｉｃｈを調べてみると疑問代名詞というのがあったので、それではないかと思いますが、どうでしょう。代名詞として使うんでしょうね。

Ｎｏ．１です。 何度もすいません。 「ハリケーンに名前をつけて」というのは意訳しすぎかもしれません。 ハリケーンを単に「ハリケーン」とではなく、 「カトリーヌ」など、名前で呼ぶ、ということです。 「ハリケーン」と呼んでも、いつのどの嵐のことか分かりませんから。
お礼
ありがとうございます。 文の意味が分かり、すっきりしました。後、文法的にどうなっているのかが気がかりですが。

天気科学者たちは、彼らがどのハリケーンについて話しているのかを明確にするため、 ハリケーンに名前を付けて呼びます。 特に、同じ時期に２つ以上のハリケーンが起こったときにそうします。 になると思いますよ。

The weather is probably one of the things we talk about the most. Everybody is a weather forecaster. The scientist who predict the weather are called meteorologists. They are now quite accurate about forecasting the weather over the next few days, but are less accurate over the next few weeks or months. Data from observation stations, ships, airplanes, weather balloons and satellites from all around the world are used by meteorologists to produce weather maps called “synoptic charts”. These are used to predict the weather. A typical synoptic chart is shown below. The lines on the map, called “isobars”, join places with the same air pressure. Winds blow from areas of high pressure to areas of lower pressure. The equator is the part of the Earth that receives the most energy from the sun. The areas around the North and South Poles receive less energy from the sun. They also reflect a lot of the energy back into space, because they are covered by white snow and ice. So areas around the equator are hot and those around the poles are a lot colder. Nature tries to balance this difference in temperature, so energy in the form of heat is transferred from the equator to the poles by winds and ocean currents. This is what causes our weather. Factors that affect the weather include the location of land masses, the seasons, and the rotation of the Earth on its axis, which causes winds to be deflected. Climate is the description of the weather over the whole year. Even in the modern world and with all our technology, we are still at the mercy of the weather. Typhoons, which occur in the western North Pacific Ocean, are very strong tropical storms that can cause enormous damage. To be called a typhoon, a storm must have winds of at least 120 kilometers per hour, but often winds over 200 kilometers per hour are produced. This same type of storm is called a hurricane in the North Atlantic and eastern Pacific Oceans, the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico, and a cyclone in the Indian and western South Pacific Ocean. Warm seas are needed to create a typhoon. As the warm, moist air above the ocean rises, clouds of water vapor form, releasing heat energy and causing the air to rise even faster. More air rushes in at sea level and this air rises as well. This causes very strong winds and very heavy rain. To keep the storm going, the air at the top of the storm has to be blown away from it. The center of the storm is very calm and is called the “eye” of the storm. On September 8, 1900 the city of Galveston in Texas was hit by one of the worst hurricanes of the 20th century. It was unexpected, and completely destroyed the city, killing more than 8,000 people. We now use satellites to track typhoons and predict their path. We generally have at least 24 hours’ warning of the arrival of a typhoon. So while we can’t control the weather, we are now better prepared for it than ever before. 【語句】 predict 「予測する」 observation station 「観測所」 isobar 「等圧線」 reflect 「反射する」 affect 「影響を及ぼす」 description 「説明」 typhoon 「台風」 hurricane 「ハリケーン」 Caribbean Sea 「カリブ海」（大西洋の付属海で，中米と南米大陸北岸，西インド諸島に囲まれた海域。北西部のユタカン海峡からメキシコ湾（Gulf of Mexico）に通じる。） cyclone 「サイクロン」

While the Egyptian Expeditionary Force had successfully demonstrated its attacking abilities at Gaza, Beersheba, Jaffa and Jerusalem, this victory by the Desert Mounted Corps' Australian Light Horse, British Yeomanry, Indian Lancers and New Zealand Mounted Rifles' brigades demonstrated their strength in defence in the face of determined German and Ottoman attacks. This had been the only occasion during the Sinai and Palestine campaign when German infantry attacked as storm-troopers and Chauvel commented on their crushing defeat, that it might improve the image of Australian troopers "in the minds of their detractors, who are many." The defeat was a severe blow to German prestige. German prisoners captured at Abu Tellul claimed they had been betrayed by their Ottoman allies who should have more strongly supported their flanks. Von Sanders, their commander in chief, knew that these same regiments had fought well, just a few months before, during the two Transjordan attacks in March and April. He later wrote that "Nothing had occurred to show me so clearly the decline in the fighting capacity of the Turkish troops as the events of the 14th July." An Ottoman artillery attack began at 01:00 on Tuesday 16 July and the 1st Light Horse Brigade, still in position on Abu Tellul and Mussallabeh, was heavily shelled. Over 1,500 shells were fired at their positions, causing heavy casualties, especially among the horses, who were not well protected against shell fire or bomb attacks. The accuracy of the Ottoman artillery was enhanced by spotter planes and accurate distance observation posts. In the afternoon when the 3rd Light Horse Brigade moved to relieve the 1st Light Horse Brigade; their advance guard was so heavily shelled that the main body of brigade did not take over until after dark. During the day gas drills were carried out and funk holes dug. Just two months later on 19 September, the Battle of Megiddo, which finished the war in this theatre, began.

British heavy artillery had been moved north from the Fifth Army in January, ready for the offensive at Arras and had been partly replaced by inexperienced units from Britain. Divisions from the Fourth Army had been moved south, to take over former French positions and I Anzac Corps had been transferred to the Fifth Army to compensate for divisions sent north to the Third Army by 6 February, which left the Anglo-French forces in the area depleted. Beach concluded that evidence of German intentions had been collected by air reconnaissance, spy reports and debriefings of refugees and escaped prisoners of war but that German deception measures, made information gleaned from intermittent air reconnaissance during the frequent bad flying weather over the winter, appear unremarkable. German digging behind existing fortifications had taken place several times during the Somme battle and led British Intelligence to interpret the evidence of fortification-building further back from the Somme front, as an extension of the construction already being watched.

The Turkish artillery proved far more accurate than expected, repeatedly disabling the British wireless communications. Reinforcements were sent up at 06:45 but could make no further progress. To make matters worse a dust storm began at 08:00 and continued for most of the rest of the day. British communications broke down and the storm prevented effective counter-battery fire. This in turn made it impossible for the British infantry to attack, as they faced an advance across nearly 1 km (1,000 yards) of open ground in searing heat. The heat also made it impossible to organise a withdrawal during the daytime, so the troops dug in and endured the conditions with water being supplied from the Euphrates. Suggestions that the Turks might be about to withdraw came to nothing and, at 03:15 the following day, the British commander decided to withdraw under the cover of darkness. Although the Turks did not attack the withdrawing British, around 1,500 pro-Turkish Arabs mounted an attack but were "beaten off and severely punished as soon as it got light." They continued to mount sniping attacks against the British as they made their way back to Dhibban, which they reached at 21:30 on 13 July. Casualties and aftermath The battle had been a costly failure, exacerbated by the severe weather conditions and the unexpectedly strong Turkish resistance. The British suffered 566 casualties, of whom 321 – over half – were caused by the heat. Enemy fire thus accounted for less than half of the British casualties. Some men died of heat stroke, while others were reported to have died of thirst or gone mad. Second Battle of Ramadi Background The second, ultimately successful, British effort to take Ramadi was mounted in September 1917. By this time the Turks had assembled a joint Turco-German force called the Yilderim ("Thunderbolt") Army Group, under the command of the German General Erich von Falkenhayn. The aim was to mount an attack into Iraq, marching down the Euphrates via Hīt and on to Baghdad.
