Short question about one sentence. Context: the narrator is a very lazy high school student who values sleep above everything else. In fact, he's sleeping right now.
今のこの季節を表現する言葉は数あれど。
俺が一番すきなのは。
春眠暁を覚えず。
その言葉と本能に従い、俺は眠っていた。
こうなると、もう何人も俺を起こすことなど――
There's probably something left out after the など, but what? Is there an abbreviated idiom here?
If I had to guess, I'd say there's an implicit できない: "no matter how many people would try to wake me up right now (, they wouldn't succeed)". Is this correct?
