peer agreement (net): +1Surrounded by people mostly thinking only of themselves, he had a different idea. Explanation: Surrounded by people mostly thinking only of themselves, he had a different idea. I think non-direct translation of this is more natural. I would rework "he had a different idea" depending on the context as well. I would go with "he had another idea" for 'natural' reading, if it fits your context, or maybe "he thought differently" or "his thinking was different" (although I realize that is more like 考え方が違う) "Surrounded by..." could also be translated (non-literally) as "In a world full of..." |
