In fact,the Japanese themselves have been as critical as any foreigner,if not more so,of their politicians’ apparent haplessness,and of TEPCO officials’ evasions and obfuscations.请问 if not more so在上面这段话中该如何翻译,如何用英语对上面的句子进行改写?
答
如果不是对他们这么批判的话。
答
如果说没有他们更加吹毛求疵的话
if not more critical than them,
答
if not more so就是说日本人大力抨击本国政客以及东电官员的无能,而这种抨击力度与任何外国人相比都是有过之而无不及
用英语改写的话,可以如下所示:
In fact,compared with foreigners,the Japanese themselves have been as critical as or even more critical of their politicians’ apparent haplessness,and of TEPCO officials’ evasions and obfuscations.
答
if not more so应该是指“如果对。。。不是更挑剔的话”。
整句话可以这样理解。事实上,日本人自己和外国人一样苛刻,甚至会更加苛责他们政客的不幸和东京电力官员的逃避与糊弄态度。
