미국 캐나다 생활 영어: Slowly but surely

미국 캐나다 생활 영어: Slow but surely

미국 캐나다 생활 영어: Slowly but surely

 

안녕하세요

미국 캐나다 실생활 영어 알려드리는 카니잉글리시입니다 ^^

"Slowly but surely" 

"slow but sure" 또는 "slowly but surely"는 목표를 향해 단단하고 점진적인 진전을 만드는 것을 의미하는 영어 관용구입니다. 

실천 속도가 특별히 빠르지 않더라도, 일정한 진전을 이루려는 노력을 강조합니다. 

성공을 달성하거나 목표를 달성할 때 속도보다 일관성과 인내가 더 중요하다는 아이디어를 강조합니다.

본질적으로 이것은 무언가를 재빨리 처리하거나 지름길을 택하는 대신 시간을 들이고 노력을 기울이는 것이 

빠른 속도보다 더 신뢰성 있고 성공적인 결과를 가져올 것이라고 시사합니다. 

이는 인내를 장려하며 속도뿐만 아니라 작업 또는 진전의 품질에 중점을 둘 것을 촉구합니다.

예를 들어, 누군가가 새로운 기술을 배우고 

"나는 가장 빠른 학습자가 아닐지도 모르지만, 천천히지만 확실하게 진전을 보이고 있다"라고 말하면, 

그들은 진전이 빠르지 않더라도 꾸준하게 개선하고 있다는 것을 의미합니다.

 

한 마디로

"천천히 그러나 확실하게 하라"라는 말입니다.

-Slow and steady wins the race와 일맥상통합니다만, 일상생활에서 slowly and surely가 더 자주 쓰입니다.-

 

예문으로 뉘앙스 확실히 파악하고 가겠습니다.

고고!
