※ 引述《AppleRam (苹果羊咩咩)》之铭言:
: 这篇是有关美国陪审团的文章 这一句我一直翻的不满意
: 有请英文强者解救 @@ 感谢~
: This legislative history shows that congressional commitment to the

: 这个立法历程显示国会对於跨阶层理想的致力更符合法条精神,而非只是像条文看似指称
: 的大胆政策宣言。

: 谢谢热心的大家~
the bold policy declaration with which the statute opens
=> the statute opens with the bold policy declaration
也就是说the statute开头宣告了一段 bold policy declaration
所以是...than the bold policy declaration might otherwise have indicated
而might otherwise have indicated则是意指这段宣言指出跟前面所提到
"congressional commitment to cross-sectional ideal was more qualified"不同(或
相反)的情况 例如 congressional commitment to cross-sectional ideal was less
qualified or something else would be more qualified...(因为没有更多的上下文所
以不知道这个宣言指出什麽)
所以你的翻译我会修正为:
立法历程显示国会致力於cross-sectional ideal,相较此法条开头阐述的大胆政策宣言所
另指之情形而言更为qualified(?)
翻译得没有很好 但我已尽力表达我对这句子的解读了 希望不会太复杂orz
另外cross-sectional ideal是说a concept of producing a jury that best represents
the commuity 所以你可以斟酌应该怎翻成中文才好
以上供你参考 欢迎指教
