Misreading

I am reading “Winnie-the-Pooh” in English.
I also lent a Japanese version translated by Momoko Ishi from a library.
I read 2-3 pages in English, then I read the same place in Japanese.
I can understand the outline of the story in the English version, but when I read the Japanese version, I sometimes realize my misunderstandings.

There was a sentence like that ”Sometime he (=Piglet) slips out (from your pocket) and has a good look in the ink-pot,.”
I read it at the first time, I thought “Piglet is in the ink-pot and look up you from there. So he is very small like a fairy.”
Then I read the Japanese version, I found it meant “Piglet looks into the ink-pot.”

I find this kind of reading to be useful at times.


『クマのプーさん』を英語で読んでいます。
図書館で石井桃子訳の日本語版も借りてきました。
英語で2,3ページ読んで、その後に日本語版で同じところを読みます。
英語版でも大体の筋はわかりますが、日本語版を読むと、たまに自分の勘違いに気づくことがあります。

たとえば、このような文章がありました。
”Sometime he (=Piglet) slips out (from your pocket) and has a good look in the ink-pot”
最初に英語で読んだとき、「ピグレットがインク壺の中から見る」という風に勘違いしました。
でも日本語版を読んで、「ピグレットがインク壺の中を見る」という意味だったことに気づきました。

こういう読み方もたまには役に立つとおもいました。
