peer agreement (net): +1英知が勝る、良識が勝つ etc. Explanation: "Let wiser heads prevail" という表現と、そのバリエーションはよく使われますが、特に定訳としてはないかもしれません。"wiser head" = intellect という意味です。賢い人、知性のある人、高尚な人、などでしょうか。 http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/head ここでは、法廷で争われる前に、裁判官の勧告に従い、賢い判断が優先され、和解ないし調停に至ったということを指しているのではないでしょうか。他にも適切な訳をされる方があると思いますが、意味は間違っていないと思います。 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 13 hrs (2007-02-07 00:30:02 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 訳しにくいですが、こういうのはどうでしょう、 ... 裁判官の勧告に良識をもって応ずることし、..... |

良識を取り戻す Explanation: In my opinion report, the final tally of financial liability was about a 50/50 split between plaintiff and defendant. Still, each side chose to go to court. I was called to testify, but while sitting in the courtroom hall with case file materials in-hand, my attorney-client came out during a recess and sent me home. I later learned that <with the judge's admonitions, wiser heads prevailed and the case settled>. And in just about the proportions I estimated! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 hrs (2007-02-07 01:35:33 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.designnews.com/article/CA6402159.html |
