"

"

"There is no knowing what _they_ may expect," said the lady, "but we are not to think of their expectations: the question is, what you can afford to do."

"그들이 무엇을 기대할지는 알 수 없지요," 부인이 말했습니다. "하지만 우리는 그들의 기대를 생각할 필요가 없어요. 문제는 당신이 얼마를 줄 수 있느냐 하는 것이죠."

"Certainly—and I think I may afford to give them five hundred pounds a-piece. As it is, without any addition of mine, they will each have about three thousand pounds on their mother's death—a very comfortable fortune for any young woman."

"물론이죠 — 그리고 저는 그들에게 각각 오백 파운드씩 줄 수 있을 것 같아요. 지금으로서도, 제가 아무것도 보태지 않아도, 그들은 어머니가 돌아가실 때 각자 약 삼천 파운드씩 받게 될 거예요 — 어떤 젊은 여성에게도 매우 넉넉한 재산이죠."

"To be sure it is; and, indeed, it strikes me that they can want no addition at all. They will have ten thousand pounds divided amongst them. If they marry, they will be sure of doing well, and if they do not, they may all live very comfortably together on the interest of ten thousand pounds."

"물론 그렇죠. 그리고 사실, 그들에게는 아무런 추가도 필요하지 않다는 생각이 드네요. 그들은 만 파운드를 나눠 갖게 될 거예요. 결혼을 하면 잘 살 수 있을 것이고, 그렇지 않더라도 만 파운드의 이자로 함께 아주 편안하게 살 수 있을 거예요."

"That is very true, and, therefore, I do not know whether, upon the whole, it would not be more advisable to do something for their mother while she lives, rather than for them—something of the annuity kind I mean.—My sisters would feel the good effects of it as well as herself. A hundred a year would make them all perfectly comfortable."

"그것은 매우 맞는 말이에요. 그래서 저는, 전반적으로 생각해 봤을 때, 그들을 위해 무언가를 하는 것보다 그들의 어머니가 살아 계시는 동안 그녀를 위해 무언가를 하는 것이 더 현명하지 않을까 싶어요 — 연금 같은 것을 말하는 거예요. — 제 여동생들도 그녀 자신만큼이나 그 혜택을 느낄 수 있을 거예요. 일 년에 백 파운드면 그들 모두를 완벽하게 편안하게 해줄 수 있을 거예요."

His wife hesitated a little, however, in giving her consent to this plan.

그러나 그의 아내는 이 계획에 동의하는 데 약간 망설였습니다.

"To be sure," said she, "it is better than parting with fifteen hundred pounds at once. But, then, if Mrs. Dashwood should live fifteen years we shall be completely taken in."

"물론," 그녀가 말했습니다, "그것은 한꺼번에 천오백 파운드를 내놓는 것보다는 낫죠. 하지만, 만약 대쉬우드 부인이 십오 년을 산다면 우리는 완전히 손해를 보게 될 거예요."

"Fifteen years! my dear Fanny; her life cannot be worth half that purchase.

"십오 년이라고요! 내 사랑 패니, 그녀의 수명은 그 절반의 값어치도 없을 거예요.
