very sorry=深表歉意
在新浪网上看到了那封致歉信,看了标题偶就很高兴,总算道歉了,扬眉吐气呀。
看到的还是中英文对照的,多好呀,显示的媒体坦荡的胸襟。
又看了全英文的,好象觉得英文信很长,中文的挺短。偶就当对照着学英文呗:
美方在信中表示,“布什总统和鲍威尔国务卿对中方飞行员失踪和飞机坠毁都已表示了真诚的遗憾。请向中国人民和飞行员王伟的家属转达,我们对飞行员王伟的失踪和那架飞机的坠毁深表歉意。”("both president Bush and Secretary of Satate Powell have expressed their sincere regret over your missing pilot and aircraft.Please convey to the Chinese people and to the family of pilot Wang Wei that we are very sorry for their loss. ")
注释:这是信件的第一段。
美方还对其飞机“未经口头许可而进入中国领空并降落深表歉意。”(The US side goes on to say that it is "very sorry the entering of China's airspace and the landing did not have verbal clearance")
注释:除了媒体节选的最动听的一句话,信件第二段全文如下:
Although the full picture of what transpired is still unclear, according to our information, our severely crippled aircraft made an emergency landing after following international emergency procedures. We are very sorry the entering of China's airspace and the landing did not have verbal clearance, but very pleased the crew landed safely.
虽然所有的图片仍然不清楚,根据我方的信息,我方严重损坏的飞行器是按照国际紧急事件处理流程作了紧急迫降。我方very sorry该飞行器未经中方口头确认进入中方领空并降落,但是很高兴所有的机组成员安全降落。
