Alice's Adventures in Wonderland — Page 4
Let me see: that would be four thousand miles down, I think—" (for, you see, Alice had learnt several things of this sort in her lessons in the schoolroom, and though this was not a _very_ good opportunity for showing off her knowledge, as there was no one to listen to her, still it was good practice to say it over) "—yes, that's about the right distance—but then I wonder what Latitude or Longitude I've got to?"
어디 보자: 아마 4000마일쯤 아래일 것 같아—" (왜냐하면, 앨리스는 교실 수업 시간에 이런 종류의 것들을 여러 가지 배웠고, 비록 자신의 지식을 뽐낼 아주 좋은 기회는 아니었지만—들어줄 사람이 아무도 없었으니까—그래도 되뇌어 보는 것은 좋은 연습이었다) "—그래, 그 정도 거리가 맞아—그런데 내가 지금 위도나 경도로 어디쯤 왔을까?"
(Alice had no idea what Latitude was, or Longitude either, but thought they were nice grand words to say.)
(앨리스는 위도가 무엇인지, 경도가 무엇인지 전혀 몰랐지만, 말하기에 멋지고 근사한 단어들이라고 생각했다.)
Presently she began again. "I wonder if I shall fall right _through_ the earth!
이윽고 그녀는 다시 말하기 시작했다. "나는 지구를 곧장 뚫고 떨어지는 건 아닐까!
How funny it'll seem to come out among the people that walk with their heads downward! The Antipathies, I think—" (she was rather glad there _was_ no one listening, this time, as it didn't sound at all the right word)
머리를 아래로 향한 채 걷는 사람들 사이로 나오게 되다니 얼마나 우습겠어! 아마 antipathies(정반대편 사람들)라고 하던가—" (이번에는 아무도 듣고 있지 않다는 사실이 꽤 다행스러웠다. 그 단어가 전혀 맞는 말 같지 않았으니까)
"—but I shall have to ask them what the name of the country is, you know. Please, Ma'am, is this New Zealand or Australia?"
"—하지만 그 나라 이름이 무엇인지 그들에게 물어봐야겠지. 저, 부인, 여기가 뉴질랜드인가요, 아니면 오스트레일리아인가요?"
(and she tried to curtsey as she spoke—fancy _curtseying_ as you're falling through the air! Do you think you could manage it?)
(그녀는 말하면서 무릎을 굽혀 인사를 하려고 했다—공중을 떨어지면서 무릎 인사를 하다니 상상이 가는가! 당신이라면 해낼 수 있을 것 같은가?)
"And what an ignorant little girl she'll think me for asking! No, it'll never do to ask: perhaps I shall see it written up somewhere."
"그리고 내가 그런 걸 묻는다면 그녀는 나를 얼마나 무식한 꼬마라고 생각하겠어! 아니, 절대로 물어봐서는 안 되겠어. 어쩌면 어딘가에 쓰여 있는 걸 보게 될지도 몰라."
Down, down, down. There was nothing else to do, so Alice soon began talking again.
아래로, 아래로, 아래로. 달리 할 일이 없었기에 앨리스는 곧 다시 말하기 시작했다.
"Dinah'll miss me very much to-night, I should think!
"다이나는 오늘 밤 나를 많이 그리워하겠지, 그럴 것 같아!
