추도사

The minister stood at the edge of the coffin and alunched into a glowing tribute to the chracter, integrity, industry, charity, and compassion of the notorious bum whose remains were being honored.

Finally the wife of the deceased leaned over to one of her children and said, “Nancy, go over and see if that is really your father in the coffin.”

악명 높은 건달이 죽어서 장례식을 치르는 자리. 관 머리에 선 목사는 고인의 인격과 성실성, 근면함, 자비심, 동정심에 어마어마한 찬사를 늘어 놓았다.

목사의 이런 이야기를 가만 듣고 있던 미망인은 마침내 아이 하나에게 기웃하더니 살짝 일렀다. “낸시야, 너 가서 관속에 있는 게 정말 너의 아빠 맞는지 보고 온.”

*glowing tribute : 열렬한 찬사
*integrity : 고결, 성실

3월26일(월), 천안함 폭침 2주년을 맞이하여 대전 현충원에서 거행된 추모식에서 46 전몰 장병의 유가족들은 헌화하였다. 천안함은 2년전 북한의 가공할 만한 어뢰공격으로 서해 인근 해역에서 폭침된 바 있다. 부모보다 먼저 저승으로 가는 것은 최대의 불효라 일컬어 왔다. 부모의 가슴 속에 묻혀 부모가 숨을 거두기 까지 슬프게 하는 것이라고 했다. 46용사들의 부모들을 생각해 보라.
어떤 국회의원 후보는 우리 해군을 해적이라 불렀다. 이런 사람이나 이런사람이 속하는 정당에는 표를 주어서는 안된다. Make sense?

Bereaved family members of 46 deceased sailors of the warship Cheonan lay flowers during a memorial service at the National Cemetery in Daejeon, Monday, marking the second anniversary of the sinking of the vessel. On March 26, the ship sank near the western inter-Korean sea border following a surprise torpedo attack by North Korea. It has been said to be undutifulness to their parents if one would breath one\\\'s last before one\\\'s parents. It means one is burried under their parents\\\' hearts making them in sorrow until the moment they breath their last. Just imagine the hearts of the remains of the 46 navies. One of the candidates for member of national assembly called our navy a sea robber. We should not give her and all other candidates belong to that political party even a vote. 말되나?

Sometime ago, one of our nursing graduates who had been smart and attractive died from a car accident. We faculty members were all stunned by the news. We all attended her funeral service. At the service our deceased graduate was lying inside the beautiful coffin. She was wearing a pretty dress which was supposed to be a Christmas gift from her mother. The mother did not have a chance to give it to her prior to her death. We were so sad that we were speechless. During the service the minister spoke about the girl who was so bright, but struggled in studying chemistry. Most of the attendants were weeping when we heard the minister mention her chemistry struggles.

I didn\\\'t notice \\\'a\\\' was missed in the chracter until before professor Hwang\\\' reply and read as chracter is character.

I\\\'m looking forward to being posted \\\'A word of English\\\' more repeatedly.

I played golf yesterday and kept par on two holes and then my husband launched into a growing tribute.His praise without integrity did\\\'t give me trust as his wife of above story was doubtful.

I\\\'ve found another typo mistake. In the second line of the first paragraph,
\\\'a\\\' is missing in the word of \\\'chracter\\\'. Right? Very funny humor!

In the main English paragraph, there is a wrong word \\\'alunch\\\' which can not be found in dictionary. That is a misspelled word and should be corrected to \\\'launch\\\'.
