English → Korean CHAPTER II. Level 7/10

To be tied down to the regular payment of such a sum, on every rent day, is by no means desirable: it takes away one's independence.

매 임대료 지불일마다 그런 금액을 정기적으로 지불해야 한다는 것은 결코 바람직하지 않습니다. 그것은 사람의 독립성을 빼앗아 가니까요.

"Undoubtedly; and after all you have no thanks for it.

"물론이죠. 게다가 결국 아무런 감사도 받지 못하잖아요.

They think themselves secure, you do no more than what is expected, and it raises no gratitude at all.

그들은 자신들이 안전하다고 생각하고, 당신은 기대되는 것 이상을 하지 않으며, 그것은 전혀 감사함을 불러일으키지 않아요.

If I were you, whatever I did should be done at my own discretion entirely.

제가 당신이라면, 무엇을 하든 전적으로 제 재량에 따라 해야 할 거예요.

I would not bind myself to allow them any thing yearly.

저는 그들에게 매년 무언가를 주겠다고 스스로를 얽매지 않겠어요.

It may be very inconvenient some years to spare a hundred, or even fifty pounds from our own expenses."

어떤 해에는 우리 자신의 지출에서 백 파운드, 심지어 오십 파운드를 떼어 놓는 것조차 매우 불편할 수도 있어요."

"I believe you are right, my love; it will be better that there should be no annuity in the case; whatever I may give them occasionally will be of far greater assistance than a yearly allowance, because they would only enlarge their style of living if they felt sure of a larger income, and would not be sixpence the richer for it at the end of the year.

"당신 말이 맞는 것 같아요, 여보. 이 경우에 연금이 없는 것이 더 나을 거예요. 제가 가끔 그들에게 줄 수 있는 것이 연간 수당보다 훨씬 더 큰 도움이 될 거예요. 왜냐하면 그들은 더 큰 수입이 확실하다고 느끼면 생활 방식만 더 호화롭게 할 뿐이고, 연말에는 그것으로 인해 단 한 푼도 더 부유해지지 않을 테니까요.

It will certainly be much the best way.

그것이 분명히 훨씬 더 좋은 방법일 거예요.

A present of fifty pounds, now and then, will prevent their ever being distressed for money, and will, I think, be amply discharging my promise to my father."

때때로 오십 파운드의 선물은 그들이 돈 때문에 곤란해지는 것을 막아 줄 것이고, 제 생각에는 아버지께 한 약속을 충분히 이행하는 것이 될 거예요."

"To be sure it will.

"물론 그렇겠죠.

Indeed, to say the truth, I am convinced within myself that your father had no idea of your giving them any money at all.

사실, 솔직히 말하면, 저는 당신 아버지께서 당신이 그들에게 돈을 줄 거라고는 전혀 생각하지 않으셨다고 확신해요.
