【句子】I mean, Lonny knows he messed up, and he's sorry. He's making restitution. 【Desperate Housewives S2E5】【发音】/aɪ/ /miːn/ /lɑːni/ /nəʊz/ /hiː/ /mest/ /ʌp/ /ənd/ /hiːz/ /ˈsɒr.i/ /ˈsɔːr.i/ /hiːz/ /ˈmeɪ.kɪŋ/ /ˌres.tɪˈtjuː.ʃən/ 【发音技巧】messed up连读；and he's不完全爆破；【翻译】洛尼知道自己做错了，他也感到很抱歉。他正在设法补偿。【适用场合】在英文中，restitution可以用来表示：“归还、补偿、赔偿、恢复”；比如说，当它表示“归还”的意思时，相当于the return of items stolen or lost，是一种很正式的用法，可以看看这个例句：eg: They are demanding the restitution of ancient treasures that were removed from the country in the 16th century.他们现在正在要求归还16世纪从他们国家运走的古代珍贵文物。而今天视频中，restitution是当作“赔偿”这个含义去理解的。相当于：payment made for damage or loss，当这个意思去使用的时候，跟make的搭配很常见。比如说看下面的例句：eg: The chemicals company promised to make full restitution to the victims for the injury to their health.化学制品公司承诺，对所有健康受到损害的受害人予以全额赔偿。eg: We will make restitution for the damage caused.我们会为造成的损失作出赔偿。eg: We are bound to seek him and make restitution.我们一定要找到他并作出赔偿。eg: He was ordered to make restitution to the victim.他被命令向受害者作出赔偿。【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 We have asked that they rehire the people that were fired and that they make restitution to them.
