영어 씹어먹기 : [P.28-29 Drill] 윔피키드(Wimpy Kid : Old School) 정복기

아빠는 작은 일이 큰 결과를 가져올 수 있다고 강조하며 나를 꾸짖었고, 로드릭도 요즘 아빠의 신경을 건드려 결국 아빠는 로드릭에게 기름값을 직접 벌어오라고 일자리를 구하라고 했다.

일단 써보기

I didn't think it was a big deal, but Dad gave me this long speech about how "little things have big consequences." He said if I was a kid growing up in frontier times and it was my job to tighten the bolts on the wagon wheels but I forgot to, then the wheels would fall off and our family would get eaten by wolves. I thought Dad was being kind of dramatic, but it did make me fell a little guilty about that toothpaste cap.

 

I'm not the the only one who's been getting on Dad's nerves, though. Lately, Rodrick's been getting under Dad's skin, too. Whenever Rodrick needs gas for his van, he hits Mom up for money. But a few nights ago he made the mistake of doing it in front of Grandpa. Dad said that from now on, Rodrick has to pay for his own gas. And when Rodrick asked how he was supposed to do that, Dad said it was time for him to get a job.

아래 번역문을 보며 영어로 표현해 본다.

나는 그것이 큰 문제가 아닐 거라고 생각했지만, 아빠는 "작은 것들이 큰 결과를 가져온다"는 긴 이야기를 해주셨어. 아빠는 만약 내가 개척 시대에 자라나는 아이였고, 짐마차의 바퀴에 나사를 조이는 게 내 일인데 그걸 잊어버리면 바퀴가 빠지고 우리 가족이 늑대에게 잡아먹힐 거라고 했어. 아빠가 약간 과장하는 것 같았지만, 그 치약 뚜껑에 대해 조금 죄책감을 느끼게 하긴 했어.

하지만 내가 아빠의 신경을 건드리고 있는 유일한 사람은 아니야. 최근에 로드릭도 아빠를 짜증나게 하고 있어. 로드릭이 밴에 기름이 필요할 때마다 엄마에게 돈을 요청해. 그런데 며칠 전에는 할아버지 앞에서 그런 실수를 했어. 아빠는 이제부터 로드릭이 자기 기름값을 스스로 내야 한다고 했어. 로드릭이 어떻게 그걸 하냐고 묻자, 아빠는 그에게 일할 시간이 됐다고 말했어.
