标题Re: [问题] 试译(英->中):克莱斯勒汽车公司
时间Sat Feb 24 01:20:10 2007
※ 引述《raylauxes (Raylauxes)》之铭言:
: : 这一段请参考:
: : ...it could find partners for its North American division
: : and a sale is not ruled out either.
: : 他们会找到愿意经营这块北美版图的合作伙伴
: : 试改: 公司找得到愿与其北美部门合作的合夥公司
: : 但同时公司也不排除把这个部门卖掉的可能
: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
: it could find partners for its North American division
: and a sale is not ruled out either.
: (大惊)
: sale这个字我一直在「业务」上打转,完全忘了它也有「卖出;贩售」的意思
: 完全把意思弄错了(冷汗直流)
: 如此一来,could跟either也可以说得通了
: 感谢lifegetter大大!
after i re-read the paragraph, i think this word "could" only means that it
is one of the company's options -- but there is no guarantee that the company
CAN actually find someone. Devil is always in the details, no? :)
试改: 至於北美部门,公司会愿意去找人来合夥经营
但同时也不排除把整个部门卖掉的可能

15F:推 TheRock:很多公司并购他公司是为了增加产品线,但是如果买的公司是 02/24 01:40
16F:推 TheRock:经营不善的,为了压低成本减少亏损,会倾向多多「共用」, 02/24 01:41
17F:推 TheRock:最後的结果,就是共用部份越来越多,产品的差别越来越小。 02/24 01:42
