今日の英語ニュースから [2023.02.06]
PBS News Weekend Feb. 5, 2023
この番組には英語字幕がついていますが、誤りや省略が少なくありません。特に週末版は多いのですが、今日も最初以外は非常に多くの間違いや省略がありました。約３０分の番組ですが、実際に英語音声をすべて聞いて、字幕の誤りを訂正し、ニュース英語や時事英語の独特な表現など気になった語句の説明を加えて、字幕ファイルを作りました（書き加えた説明は[* ] ）。
動画サイトの字幕が変だなと思った時、この字幕ファイルで謎が解けるかもしれません ＾＾
オリジナルの字幕は大文字表記のものを使ったので、今日の字幕ファイルはすべて大文字表記にしました。ぜひ、ダウンロードして活用してください。
週末版の字幕は、翌日以降に比較的正確なものに差し替えられるようです。でも、ニュース番組なので、翌日以降に更新されても…

[02:04] 今日の主要ニュースまとめ
[04:43]★今日のおすすめ★ 今週の動きを政治記者に聞く
[07:27] Keeping on the topic of the president and Congress, the president travels to Capitol Hill Tuesday, his first State of the Union [* (米大統領の)一般教書演説。 2023年は２月８日(水)午前１１：００～(日本時間) ] before divided Congress and the first in a -- as we go into an election cycle where he says he is running for reelection. [* divided Congress = ねじれ議会。この文脈では、上院と下院で多数党が違っていること。番組内でsplit Congressという表現も出て来たが、同じ意味。]
[07:47] This is the biggest audience in all likelihood President Biden will have all year. This is the one that -- speech that everyone will carry. [* to carry = to include a particular item of news, information, etc. in something printed, broadcast, or sent over electric wires. (Cambridge Dictionary) 放送する。]
[09:22] Now, it's interesting to know that they actually didn't endorse Donald Trump the last time, either. however, this time they have gone out of their way to do a sort of de-endorsement and anti-endorsement, saying it needs to be somebody else, [* de-endorsement この話者の造語かもしれないが、意味は、「候補者の支持をやめること」。同様に、anti-endorsementは「候補者の支持に反対すること」。]
[09:43] That is all targeted at Trump and thier losses from this last election cycle. All that said, I think this could have effects maybe down-ballot. [* down-ballot = pertaining to the election of a relatively minor officeholder.(wiktionary) 例えば、大統領選挙と同時に行われる下院議員選挙など。 ]
[10:33]★今日のおすすめ★ 老朽化する水道インフラ そこにも人種差別が
[12:18] This has come to a head in a number of cities that we walked through. [* to walk through = to explain (something) to (someone), step by step. 一つずつ説明する。]
[13:43] For example, when there's a water main break, it's usually reported in the context of a traffic disruption, not the fact that there is aging infrastructure or there are potential challenges with water quality or conveying the water as a result of that main break. [* water main = the principal pipe, usually underground, for conveying water to residential and business properties. 水道本管]
[14:13] And then, I would say that environmental racism [* environmental racism = the placement of low-income or minority communities in the proximity of environmentally hazardous or degraded environments, such as toxic waste, pollution and urban decay. 環境的人種差別。環境上の人種差別。] and what we're seeing with communities who are disproportionately impacted, it's quite evident since that the historical disinvestment in communities of color really mirrors the institutional racism and other barriers that have existed in our country in the troubled history. [* institutional racism = racism expressed in the practice of social and political institutions. 制度的人種差別。]
[16:05] 産科医の情熱とその起源
[18:55] What keeps me invested in obstetrics and gynecology, and particularly obstetrics, is that I am Sam Adams Jr.'s baby daughter. [* to be invested in something = to give a lot of time and effort to something and care about it. 熱心である。]
[19:38] ストリーミングで変わる音楽の聴き方
[20:01] Later this month Amazon Music will bump up their subscription price. [* to bump up = to increase something suddenly.]
