Europe is becoming increasingly unified and therefore people are afraid of losing their own identity.
请问这句怎么样翻译?特别是其中的identity 怎么样翻译?仿佛用词典中的什么意思都不通似的。
Europe is becoming increasingly unified and therefore people are afraid of losing their own identity.
identity:身份。identification: 身份的辨别、鉴别。
欧洲正在变得愈加统一,因此大家害怕失去我们的身份。(比如,本来是个法国人,欧洲大统一了,都是欧洲人了,大家担忧将来欧洲可能就是一个大国家,没法国了,也就没法国人了,法国人就失去了作为法国人的身份了。这只不过害怕、担忧而已,并不必然会达成。)
