#. 영어회화 | 자연스러운 영어 구사를 위한 연습가이드 #07 | look, look like, almost look as if, it was clear, judging by 

 

제가 예전에 같이 일하던 원어민 선생님이 한 분 계셨는데요, 그 분이 평소에 자주 지적하고 강조했던 것이 있었어요 - "한국 사람들은 영어로 말을 할 때 너무 직설적으로 말을 한다." -- 그 이유 중 하나가 특히, 자신의 생각이나 보고 들은 내용을 마치 사실인 것처럼 말을 한다는 것이었습니다. 이번 연습가이드에서는 우리가 관찰을 한 것과 관찰한 내용을 바탕으로 느낀점이나 인상을 영어로 자연스럽게 하기 위해 사용할 수 있는 표현 4가지를 집중적으로 연습해보겠습니다. - look + adj. - look like + [....] - almost look as if  - it was clear that - judging by (~으로 미루어 보아)

 

 

방금 여기 오는길에, Just before ( now ) , on my way here,

혼자서 방황하는 개를 봤어. I saw a dog ( that was ) wandering around by itself.

• I saw a man who was smoking

• I saw a woman holding a baby.

• There were children playing in the park.

굉장히 지저분해 보였어. It looked really dirty.

• This feels heavy. Be 동사 대신 지각동사활용.

 

몇달은 못 씻은것처럼 보였어. It looked like it hadn't washed (taken a bath) in several months.

• It looked like 는 과거 못씻은것은 더 과거 그래서 it hadn't washed 로 과거완료로 사용됨.

 

보나마나 주인도 없는 개였는데,  It was pretty clear (that) it didn't have an owner.

• obviously = It was pretty clear that = It was pretty obviously that  보나마나

• I was pretty sure ~ 

 

가장 최악이었던것은 애가 너무 마른거야.  The worst thing ( part ) was that the dog was so thin ( skinny ).

가죽이랑 뼈밖에 안남은것처럼 보였다니깐요. It almost looked as if it had nothing left but (except) its skin and bones.

• It + almost + looked like 거의 ~ 처럼 보였어

• It + almost + looked as if  마치 ~ 을 한것이라도 된것처럼 보였어. 

대충 크기나 그런걸로봐서는, 꽤 어렸던 것 같아요.  Roughly judging by its size and everything, I think it was pretty young.

• Roughly ( 대충 )

• judging by ( ~로 봐서는/ ~ 로 판단하기로는 )

• and everything ~ 나 그런것 / 이런거나 그런거
