问题描述:
这是一部英文小说的简介。
Two girls were roommates at a liberal arts college outside Philadelphia, and their differences were clear, in terms of class, culture and identity. But there were similarities beeen them, too: They were both born in April 1956. One ground her teeth; the other used to. They both had a formidable father in public life. They had co-dependent mothers -- one was into substance abuse; the other was into food. One girl was rich; the other was not.
我只要你翻译这句:
One ground her teeth; the other used to.
解析:
我注意到楼主发的文章有“One ground her teeth; the other used to.”一段,中间用的是“;”.是否意思就是并列的关系??
中国也有这种说法,就是小孩子换乳牙时把掉下来的牙扔掉.照此翻译.大概就是说两个女孩的成长发育阶段的时间也相似.
大概这样了,还望各位斧正.
