ボランティアで翻訳・通訳をしている者です。 直訳ではなく意訳になりますが、なるべく原文に忠実に 翻訳すると、以下のようになります。 学校の宿題か何かでしたら、直訳の方が先生は採点するのに 簡単かもしれませんが。 カッコ内は、原文にはない言葉ですが、自然な日本語になるように 補足したものです。 ご参考までに。 「昨日の朝、モーフォードのサンブリー・ハイツ・アパートの5階から 幼児が落下した直後に、フォーリー社の頭の回転の速い窓の清掃員が (彼女を)受け止めました。 ヒーローとなったのは、48歳のドン・フォードさんで、彼は、幼い子供が ベランダで遊んでいるのに、通りの向かいにある店の窓を清掃中に 気がつきました。 すぐに危険に気がついた彼は、通りを走って渡り、塀を乗り越えて、 彼女が落下するのを受け止めるのに間に合いました。 奇跡的に、二人とも怪我はありませんでした。 少女の両親である、サラ・ウォールデンさんは、明日娘の2歳の誕生日を (娘の)命の恩人と共に祝おうとしています。 「私達は、どう彼に感謝していいかわかりません。彼にはぜひ、食事を 召し上がっていただかなくては。(*原文では受動態で「彼は食事を 与えられなくてはいけない」となります)」 地元警察は、子供が18センチの隙間をすり抜けたことに驚いていますが、 すべてのベランダの塀は、柵と柵の隙間を15センチを超えるものにすることを、 セーフティーネットの指導要領に記載しました。」 尚、原文が長いので訳がしにくくて、こちらへ質問をされたのかも しれませんが、関係代名詞で区切っているのですから、それぞれを 短く訳してから、あとは自然な日本語になるように、つなげていけば いいです。 文法的は、あまり難しいことはない文章ですが、最後の Local-以降は 少し難儀かもしれませんね。

最後の一文の意味がよくわかんないんですよね~。 子供は18cmのgapがあればこぶしを通すことができる、ってとこまではわかるんですが、その後が「???」です。

Her dad and mom died, her relatives weren't there, and at the age of 12, she finally lost her house. Only the poor clothes she wore and a piece of bread were the girl's belongings. However, even in such a situation, the pure and gentle girl believed in God. She believed that even in such a situation, God is sure to protect me.. The girl was walking alone on the road where the cold wind blows. Then a traveler talked to her girl. 「Young lady, give me food . I'm about to die.」 The girl saw the traveler's Skinny face and pitifully gave her a piece of bread, 「May you have God's blessing.」 she saw the traveler happily chewing on the bread, and the girl started walking again.

    Waiting The first and most important point in infant observation is the non-interference of the parent, usually the mother. She must refrain from initiating play or selecting which toys the child will play with. At the same time she is told to remain connected to the child and to immerse herself in his activity. As the parent empties herself of expectations, knowledge and desires in order to participate in an empathic way with her child's play, she starts feeling what he feels and merges with his emotional field. Watching In the presence of an observer, the parent watches her infant play and connects with him. When a mother speaks, what is important is not so much the content of what she says, but the subtle musical attunement to the moods and moves of the baby. The infant communicates his experience through his body, his face, his gestures, his screamings. The slightest moves on the baby's face are meaningful. The presence of the observer may allow the parent to develop awareness of her own simultaneous emotional reactions to the child's expressions and to understand her baby not through analysis, but through presence and awareness of what he does communicate of who he is and what he wants.

    とある動画で、日本人の少女に対する呼称を「asian girl」としていたので、その人に「Japanese girl」と呼んでくれ、と翻訳アプリで送ると、次のような返信が来ました。「hello. I agree with your comment, but I have some concerns. When we see a girl marching in England, we don't say European girl, we say British girl. But you said Asian girl Instead of Japanese girl. Even though Mr. Trump said that it was a Chinese virus, there were people in the United States who used violence even against Japanese allies. After all, I understand your comment that Westerners see Asia as a whole. If possible, I wanted you to call they a Japanese girl」翻訳アプリにかけたのですが、内容がよくわかりません。お分かりになる方、翻訳をよろしくお願い致します。

    長文ですがどなたか訳していただける方宜しくお願いします(*'ω'*) His early years were in a simple but homely background. His parents were poor but provided for him. Giving their children things they could not afford for themselves. He was an infant who cried all the time, tearful, dirty faced, lonely and shy and sniveling child. Didn’t mix well with other children, puny, pale and lacking in stamina in body, and not outgoing in character. A large sweaty head, delicate but poor unhealthy looking skin, like one who spent too much time cooped up indoors, playing indoor games or scribbling, amusing himself in solitary things and clinging to his family. Markedly mature for his age polite in company, a child who was seen and not heard and not inclined to canter round in front of guests. But afraid of the world outside, or over protected, restricted kept prisoner by his mother and family and lead a sheltered sad restricted life. Not a child at all. No spontaneity, or naughtiness and not happy within himself. Nervous and clumsy when scolded, or from excitement. Would make verses, draw paint. Would say things, but quickly became introverted when spoken to harshly. He was in some way unusual, gifted or considered odd and crazy. He would have grown to resemble one of his parents so much that it was remarked on. He was this parents image. He was a gentle child. Afraid to go into a dark room, afraid of ghosts and the supernatural. A superstitious child. Yet there is an element of misery and unhappiness and inequality or injustice his childhood years that he still suffers from and it is not explained. He lacked a sense of self worth. He was born a weak child, slow to talk and walk in infancy. He had no serious illness in childhood, but was not robust. Fevers and trouble with the feet.
