 先生、前回のご添削、ありがとうございました。本日は、Should minors who commit serious crimes receive the same punishments as adults? への、私の英文の添削をお願い致します。

1. 「私は、深刻な犯罪を犯した未成年者は、成人と同じ刑を受けるべきだという意見に賛成だ」
  I agree with the idea that minors who commit serious crimes receive the same punishments as adults, for the following reasons.

2. 「今や、強盗、殺人、強姦といった、若者達の犯す犯罪は凶悪化している」
  Now that, ferocity of crimes that young people commit such as robbery, murder, and rape is increasingly atrocious.

3. 「若者に厳しい罰を与えるのは、無慈悲な行為であると主張する者もいるかもしれないが、それでは、被害者や、被害者の家族は泣き寝入りをするしかなくなってしまう」
  Some may insist that giving harsh punishments to minors is a cruel act and stop, but if they are not punished, victims and their family members have no choice but to cry themselves to sleep.

 タイトルについて質問なのですが、commit は、「犯罪を犯したことがある」という意味で、現在完了形を使うべきではないでしょうか?

 本日も、よろしくお願い致します。


【回答】
1. → I agree with the idea that minors who commit serious crimes receive the same punishments as adults, for the following reasons.

2. → The crimes that young people commit today such as robbery, murder, and rape are increasingly getting atrocious.

3. → Some may argue that giving harsh punishments to minors is a cruel act and should be stopped, but if they are not punished, their victims and their family members have no choice but to cry themselves to sleep.

 ご質問の commit には、「犯罪を犯したことがある」といった意味合いはありません。その意味合いを出すには、おっしゃる通り、「現在完了形」にしてもよいのですが、現在形のまま、「犯罪を犯す青少年は・・・」としてもよいのです。



【質問 No. 23443】 カンマの後の which と、挿入句について(追記) Tanaka 2023-11-18 15:33:50
 前回は、失礼しました。英文の例を出させていただきますと、

 His new novel, which was published last week, is very interesting.

 この訳について、次のうち、どちらが正しいのか、教えていたければ、と思います。

1. 「彼の新しい小説が先週出版されたんだけど、とても面白いよ」
2. 「先週出版された彼の新しい小説がとても面白いよ」



【回答】
 今度は、ご質問の意味が、よくわかりました。ご質問の英文の which was published last week は、挿入節として投入されたものなので、「制限用法」的に、直接 His new novel を修飾させた 2. よりも、1. のように訳した方が、筆者の趣旨を正しく伝えていることになります。「彼の新しい小説は、先週出版されたばかりだが、とても面白いです」ということなのです。


【質問 No. 23442】 カンマの後の which と、挿入句について Tanaka 2023-11-18 13:12:01
 お世話になります。

 カンマ の後の which は、関係代名詞の非制限用法で、「情報の付け足し」だと習いました。一方、カンマとカンマで挟んで作る挿入句は、前の単語の補足説明をするものだと習いました。例えば、A, I think B, is C. で、「私が B だと思っている A は、C」のように。では、カンマ which と、挿入句が合わせて出てくる場合、A, which I think B, is C のような時は、どのように訳せば良いのでしょうか?


【回答】
 記号ではなく、実例で、質問してください。何か、考えておられる文章がおありなのでしょうから、日本文で例を挙げて、質問してください。お願いします。
