lower-upper-middle-class 是什么鬼?


Orwell would later write in a tone of pedantic irony that his family was among the “lower-upper-middle-class” ranks that dotted Edwardian society.

莫名的想到了:北京西站南广场东,前门到了,请您从后门下车

lower-upper-middle-class
1、看了您的回帖,觉得以您的英语水平,理解根本不是问题。
2、窃以为,可以译为下-上-中产阶级,意思是 中产阶级上层中的下层。
请不吝赐教。

Hi Mxh,

Thank you. I'll take your comment as a compliment. :P

I really don't have the foggiest idea on this one. Maybe it takes reading the whole article to come to fully understand it. Or you'll have to ask the author him/herself.

Sorry to let you down.

Pan.

I'd like to draw your attention to the phrase pedantic irony, which may shed light on the meaning of lower-upper-middle-class , and help in finding an equivalent for it in Chinese.
In other words, all the contextual clues needed for understanding what is meant by lower-upper-middle-class is already here and there is no need for more.

mxh3698 兄:
您的英文造詣, 在下比不過你
但是這題很顯然有內情
不是造詣好的能解

lower-upper-middle-class

中产阶级的下上半身
不然 lower 不會在最前面
強調是著重在下半身但位置偏上部位
理解乎.....

哈..哈..哈..哈....
