是你们和你们所做的一切


Explanation:
西方哲学的 Being 中文只能从 “是” 去理解,而不是 ’有‘,参阅下面有关链接。

*********
根本原因是我们说的 “存在” 是与 is 没有关系的外部客观物质存在。我们只有把这个 is 如实地理解成系词 “是” 才能与人家开展有效的对话。

许多学者明知道西文的 Being 有 “是” 的意义, 甚至认为它就是联系动词的 “是”,之所以不这样译这样讲,据说是 “为了读者容易理解”。这种建立在读者(其实也包括作者, 有时可能首先是作者,因为根据一般经验,凡是作者能够理解的东西,总会有办法让读者理解的)容易理解的基础上的理解,实际上是用我们中国人所习惯的思维方式(前理解结构)去理解我们所不习惯的西方思想。这样理解起来当然很容易给我们造成容易理解的感觉,可实际情况如何呢?

*****
根据原文西方哲学来源,好像 being 应该是 is 来理解。

建议翻译为:

家中各人,是你们和你们所做的一切,值得赞赏。

供参考。

disagree  David Lin: 好像与原文的称赞语气有矛盾。‘所作所为“ - 指做的一切事情或全部行为。多指一些不好的行为http://chengyu.911cha.com/NTN1dw==.html
