英译汉:nine by twelve为何意?
Double rooms were a little longer and narrower than nine-by-twelve...
该句出自《挪威的森林》英译版,是由日文翻译而来.我查阅了中文版本,翻译如下:两人一个的房间,有六张垫席大小,略显狭长...
想知道nine-by-twelve是什么意思?9/12?
The rules for room assignments put first- and second-year students in doubles while third- and final-year students had single rooms.Double rooms were a little longer and narrower than nine-by-twelve,with an aluminium-framed window in the wall opposite the door and two desks by the window arranged so the inhabitants of the room could study back-to-back.To the left of the door stood a steel bunk bed.
Double rooms were a little longer and narrower than nine-by-twelve
nine by twelve 就是 9*12 是对面积尺寸的表述:宽9长12,总面积为9*12=108

再问: 感觉很奇怪啊!双人间面积比108(单位?)略显狭长?
再答: Double rooms were a little longer and narrower than nine-by-twelve
双人间尺寸比9*12更为狭长。

从原句的意思看,实际上双人间的宽小于9,长大于12,所以会显得狭长。

首先没有给出单位,可能是米;其次不清楚日本的每张垫席有多大尺寸,若9*12是六张垫席的大小,则每张垫席的尺寸为1.5*2.

原文我已经看过了,这个面积应该是米的,就好比展会上的摊位面积一般是6*6(长6宽6的正方形,面积36平),9*12面积为108 这个双人间面积比中国的一般两室两厅住房面积还大了。尽管实际面积比9*12狭长,应该也差不多那里去的。

放心好了,我的理解不会有错的。经常接触这个东西。

by作介词可以表述面积尺寸:You use by to talk about measurements of area. For example, if a room is twenty feet by fourteen feet, it measures twenty feet in one direction and fourteen feet in the other direction.
Three prisoners were sharing one small cell 3 metres by 2½ metres. 3名囚犯共住一间3米长2.5米宽的小牢房。
