English → Korean CHAPTER I Level 8/10

"So she carries the keys in a pocket on the right.

"그러니까 그녀는 오른쪽 주머니에 열쇠를 갖고 다니는군.

All in one bunch on a steel ring....

전부 쇠고리 하나에 한 묶음으로....

And there's one key there, three times as big as all the others, with deep notches;

그리고 거기에 열쇠가 하나 있는데, 다른 것들보다 세 배나 크고 깊은 홈이 파여 있어;

that can't be the key of the chest of drawers...

그건 서랍장 열쇠일 리가 없어...

then there must be some other chest or strong-box... that's worth knowing.

그렇다면 다른 궤짝이나 금고가 있을 거야... 그건 알아둘 만한 일이야.

Strong-boxes always have keys like that...

금고에는 항상 그런 열쇠가 있지...

but how degrading it all is."

하지만 이 모든 게 얼마나 치욕스러운 일인가."

The old woman came back.

노파가 돌아왔다.

"Here, sir: as we say ten copecks the rouble a month, so I must take fifteen copecks from a rouble and a half for the month in advance.

"자, 손님: 한 달에 루블당 10코페이카라고 했으니, 한 달치 선불로 1루블 반에서 15코페이카를 받아야겠어요.

But for the two roubles I lent you before, you owe me now twenty copecks on the same reckoning in advance.

하지만 전에 빌려드린 2루블에 대해서는, 같은 계산으로 선불 20코페이카를 지금 갚으셔야 해요.

That makes thirty-five copecks altogether.

합계 35코페이카가 되는군요.

So I must give you a rouble and fifteen copecks for the watch.

그러니 시계값으로 1루블 15코페이카를 드려야겠네요.

Here it is."

여기 있어요."

"What! only a rouble and fifteen copecks now!"

"뭐라고요! 이제 고작 1루블 15코페이카라고요!"

"Just so."

"그렇습니다."

The young man did not dispute it and took the money.

청년은 이의를 달지 않고 돈을 받았다.

He looked at the old woman, and was in no hurry to get away, as though there was still something he wanted to say or to do, but he did not himself quite know what.

그는 노파를 바라보며 서둘러 자리를 뜨려 하지 않았는데, 마치 아직 할 말이나 할 일이 있는 것 같았지만, 정작 자신도 그게 무엇인지 잘 알지 못했다.

"I may be bringing you something else in a day or two, Alyona Ivanovna--a valuable thing--silver--a cigarette-box, as soon as I get it back from a friend..." he broke off in confusion.

"하루 이틀 안에 다른 것도 가져올지 모릅니다, 알료나 이바노브나--귀중한 것으로--은으로 된--담배 케이스인데, 친구한테서 돌려받는 대로..." 그는 당혹스러워하며 말을 끊었다.

"Well, we will talk about it then, sir.

"그럼, 그때 얘기하죠, 손님.
