翻译

他的决定从经济上完全可以理解,但从道德上很难成立。

(参考翻译:His decision can be justified from an economic point of view but can hardly be morally/ethically justified.)

优秀翻译:王良秋:His decision can be justified economically but not ethically.

... is justified(被动语气的一般现在时)意思是“是正确的,是有道理的”(justified成了形容词),表示判断、状态,不是“被证明正确”这一事件。

[搭配]PREP.on the grounds of/that

以…为理由证明正当:The decision is justified on the grounds that there is no realistic alternative. 既然没有其它现实的选择,这个决定是合理的。

个人翻译:His decision is justified on the grounds of economically not ethically.

造句

仿照例句:The end justifies the means.

场景:正义由胜利书写

造句:The victory justifies the justise.
