'(그렇게) 들었어', '내가 듣기로는 ~' 영어로 말하기

오늘은 “(~라고) 들었어”라고 말하고 싶을 때 사용 할 수 있는 표현을 가져와 봤습니다.

바로, “I was told”라는 표현 인데요. 직역하자면 ‘그렇게 말해졌다(?)’ 정도가 될까요? 좀 이상하죠? 🤔

실제 “I was told”의 의미는 ‘(누군가가) 내게 말해 줬어’ 즉, “(그렇게) 들었어”, “내가 듣기로는 ~야”라고 합니다.

그냥 “I was told” 단독으로 쓰이는 경우 외에도 “I was(/am) told (that) S+V” 형태나, “I’ve been told that S+V”의 패턴이 자주 쓰인다고 하니 알아 두면 좋을 것 같아요.

그리고 참고로 나 들었어라고 말할 때 우리가 흔히 쓰는 ‘I heard’와 ‘I was told’d 차이를 간단히 말씀 드리자면, ‘I heard’는 그냥 우연히들은 뉘앙스이고,  ‘I was told’누군가에게 직접적으로 들은 뉘앙스가 있는 표현 이라는 점이에요.

하지만 이런 비슷한 표현들은 현지인들도 명확히 구분해서 쓰지 않는 경우도 흔하다는 것 이제는 다들 아시죠? 😉
