由于第三者插足,这对夫妻离婚了。
Chinese Style —— The couple divorced because of the third person.
American Style —— The couple divorced because of a third party.
【点评】
序数词一般常跟定冠词 the 连用,表示“第几”;而序数词和不定冠词 a 连用时表示的则是“另一个”。如:He won the third prize(他得了个三等奖),He won a third prize(他第三次得奖)。
最新考证:
the third person 是直译,第三人,可以只三个人中的一个
a third party 字典里的解释有 a third party involved in a married couple
而电影,口语里常用 the other women
