中文的释义没有什么大问题,简单明了。但例句里有一条的翻译很不能让人信服:; \, X' `$ p& z1 ?' j
; e' {" R2 O" [5 O0 z+ g* X( [
The public prosecutor must prove the defendant's act was the proximate cause of the injury.
6 M* z* z$ D- I- h% q: e, J1 P检察官必须证明被告的行为是造成伤害的近因。
5 c) Q- T, P2 f: m+ A2 {/ I
2 Y( [! c- _, @* ]这儿的proximate cause翻译成“近因”不符合语境和我们的使用习惯。+ T4 Y! N V7 b) l7 f: z: ?4 C& a4 H
) a, M7 m- G! g( R# E参见朗文词典中释义的第一条:
4 f u/ p! a1 ]1a proximate cause is a direct one
& C3 e: j8 @1 v9 j/ ^3 N* y所以,译成直接原因更为准确。3 b/ J- c: i* `
