Translation

Sentence 30 : Olga


Things not being even - that is the situation of things.

Therefore with miles, yards, feet, and inches we measure the length and shortness of things.

With pounds, ounces, pennyweights and drachms with things that are called these we weigh weights.

With tu, kok, sŭng and sǒk - [with] things that are called these we measure amount of things.



  • Discussion Questions:

I do not remember what our decision was concerning the units of volume. Should we just transcribe their names?
(YO) How about cup, pint, gallon, and bushel? We also speculated an option to leave them as transcribed and explain the internal scales: sim, chang, ch'ŏk, and ch'on (and add that 8 ch'ŏk equals 1 sim, according the Zheng Xuan's 鄭玄 commentary to the Book of Poetry 詩經. I suggested "fathom," which is 6 feet, for it.)

Sentence 31 : Olga


Calculating the number of things, there is nothing more convenient than a "nine-by-nine" [multiplication] chart.
So called "nine-by-nine" the number of nine by nine is eighty-one.

Above was the Book of Things.

  • Discussion Questions:

The translation of the first line might be a bit excessive, but I wanted to preserve the original name as well as show what that actually is.

Sentence 32 : I.Yi


Among all things, humans alone are the most numinous:

there is the kinship of father and son

there is the righteousness of ruler and subject

there is the division of husband and wife

there is the order of the first and the last

there is the trustworthiness of friends.



  • Discussion Questions:

When the text repeats like this, what do you think about changing it in translation to make it less monotonous? For example, taking out "there is" or removing most of them:

Among all things, humans alone are the most numinous. They hold:

the kinship of father and son

the righteousness of ruler and subject

the division of husband and wife

the order of the first and the last

the trustworthiness of friends.

Sentence 33 : I.Yi


The ones who gave birth to me are my father and mother.

Those whom I gave birth to are my sons and daughters

My father’s father is my grandfather. My son’s son is my grandson.

Those who share the same father and mother are my siblings.

My father and mother’s siblings are my uncles and aunts.

My siblings’ sons and daughters are my nieces and nephews.

The wife of my son is my daughter-in-law; my daughter’s husband is my son-in-law.
