Hello, everyone.

I have a question. I am a little confused now.

I heard "I will be back in an hour." meansﾂ「ﾋ?ｪﾅｽﾅｾﾅ?ﾃ版津｣窶堙俄?禿溪?堙ｩﾂ。ﾂ」, notﾂ「ﾋ?ｪﾅｽﾅｾﾅ?ﾃ藩?遺?愿?窶堙俄?禿溪?堙ｩﾂ。ﾂ」But, how about this present sentence?

In 20 years, this number is expected to drop to 100.

(2) 窶堋ｱ窶堙個絶?敘ｽﾅ｡窶堙債、20窶扼ﾅ津｣窶堙?00窶堙俄?ｰﾂｺ窶堋ｪ窶堙ｩ窶堙?angaerareteimasuﾂ。

How should I translate the sentence, (1) , (2) or the others? :?

Hi, Mac !

Your translations look fine to me, although depending on the situation #1 wouldn't be "after twenty years," but "around or very close to" will have dropped -- meaning the drop will take place gradually.

I can imagine a Japanese translation, but I'll let you try to make any changes first.

A short explanation for them would be that in general 'in 20 years' gives the impression of a highly accurate and scientifically-based projection of something that will occur gradually and reach a certain point on or around 20 years in the future. "Within twenty years" (2) is a little more flexible and could be 20 or a little less, perhaps more like 窶堙ｦ窶堙ｨ窶伉ｽ窶堋ｭ窶堙坂?堙遺?堋｢ in Japanese. :?

Elizabeth explained it quite well for your example. Just to give two examples with the same pattern Verb+in+(time), let's look at

"I'll see you in an hour" or
"Meet me back in an hour."

In these examples, the "in"s actually mean "after" or "exactly after." The point is; "in" can have technically different usages, and the difference depends on context. Hence your type-(2) translation should apply in the other examples I introduced. The different verbs largely determine the context.

I would say; in twenty years this number is expected to drop to 100. Is it more natural? except that there is no meaning of "ﾂ鞘┐ﾂ々窶堙?.

If to + have + past participle? in a sentence, is it always considered "ﾂ鞘┐ﾂ々窶堙?? Just wondered.

Glenn · 2 Oct 2005

No, it isn't. That's something that has to be explicitly stated.

It is more natural for sure, any and all careless mistakes I take full responsibility for.
