a psi ability comes in levels,将它理解成“有等级的灵能能力”和“能够提升等级的心灵能力”,含义有什么差别吗?差异只在表达上,这个表达与中文的整体构句习惯有关,甚至无关规则本身。
你说它错了,只能说明你不习惯这种表达……我不知道你想过没有,等级是用来提升的,这个加粗让我觉得有点蠢,因为这本应是常识,虽然也有不能升级或者负升级的情况,然而等级这个概念被设计出来,基本的用途就是阶次变化,而这一句也恰好符合了基本用途。所以,中文表达延伸“提升”的概念,对“等级”毫无损伤。它仍是泛统里的等级,以泛统的方式提升。
说实话,我是错了,是的,等级概念被设计出来就是为了提升的。因此,
这句话反应的不是不懂规则,是不懂英语。
书里面有很多come in的类似用法,那些是根本不能解做“提升”的
Basic set:
Techniques come in only two difficulties: Average and Hard
“Why does this edition of the Basic Set come in two volumes?
Muscle-powered melee and thrown weapons come in several quality grades, described below
Low Tech:
Some strigils come in sets of different sizes to clean different body parts,
Balances come in varied sizes;
Bells come in varied sizes
These come in three broad types
Axes come in many shapes
Like all knives, they come in many sizes;
these come in standard “calibers,”
Hats come in all shapes and forms
Ultra-tech
They come in two levels, basic and secure.
Commercial sensies may come in many varieties.
Ultra-tech passive visual sensors come in standard models
这个“提升”完全是无中生有,在我看来这辩解就是强词夺理,如同:
“飞机到达”和“能够飞行的飞机到达”,含义有什么差别吗?差异只在表达上,这个表达与中文的整体构句习惯有关,甚至无关规则本身。
你说它错了,只能说明你不习惯这种表达……我不知道你想过没有,
飞机是用来飞的,这个加粗让我觉得有点蠢,因为这本应是常识,虽然也有不能飞或者滑行的情况,然而飞机这个交通工具被设计出来,基本的用途就是飞行·
“火球术产生一团火焰”和“可用火球术纵火”,含义有什么差别吗?差异只在表达上,这个表达与中文的整体构句习惯有关,甚至无关规则本身。
你说它错了,只能说明你不习惯这种表达……我不知道你想过没有,
火球是用来放火的,这个加粗让我觉得有点蠢,因为这本应是常识,虽然也有不能点着或者打偏的情况,然而火球这个法术被设计出来,基本的用途就是纵火·
再来几个come in levels的例子,我不知道这些东西解做“提升等级”流畅在哪里
POWERS:
If the ability doesn’t come in levels, the extra power lets the leader temporarily add or improve enhancements to his ability, remove or reduce its limitations, or both.
To qualify, a trait must come in at least four levels that cost between 5 and 15 points apiece, act mainly as an aptitude that gives a bonus to some kind of success roll, and not be appropriate as the ability of a power in its own right.
If the ability comes in levels, dice,ST points, etc.(这个其实更类似上面的情况,levels 和dice都可以写成提升尚不发生理解问题,“能够提升ST点的能力”?你确定这样不会发生误会?)
Some of the miracles in Chapter 2 come in two levels – the normal version and an enhanced version.(是可以提升2级?还是分两个等级?并且这个东西其实是不能提升的。)
