Audiobook Dictation: “But about the horses I'm determined…”

But about the horses I'm determined.

Tetapi soal kuda, aku sudah bertekad.

'I never complained of it, I'm sure.'

‘Ibu tidak pernah mengeluhkannya, sungguh.’

My mother is not given to complaints,' said he, a little proudly. 'But so much the more I have to watch over you.

Ibuku bukan orang yang suka mengeluh,’ katanya, agak bangga. ‘Tetapi justru karena itu aku harus semakin menjaga Ibu.

Now as for Fanny there, a little hardship would do her good.'

Kalau Fanny, sedikit kesusahan malah baik untuknya.’

'She is not made of the same stuff as you are, John.

‘Dia tidak terbuat dari bahan yang sama denganmu, John.

She could not bear it.' Mrs. Thornton was silent after this; for her last words bore relation to a subject which mortified her.

Dia takkan sanggup.’ Sesudah itu Nyonya Thornton diam, sebab kata-kata terakhirnya menyinggung hal yang membuatnya malu.

She had an unconscious contempt for a weak character; and Fanny was weak in the very points in which her mother and brother were strong.

Ia diam-diam memandang rendah watak yang lemah; dan Fanny lemah justru pada hal-hal di mana ibu dan kakaknya kuat.

A stranger, a careless observer might have considered that Mrs. Thornton's manner to her children betokened far more love to Fanny than to John.

Orang asing, pengamat yang sambil lalu, mungkin mengira sikap Nyonya Thornton kepada anak-anaknya menunjukkan kasih yang jauh lebih besar kepada Fanny daripada kepada John.

But such a one would have been deeply mistaken.

Tetapi orang seperti itu akan sangat keliru.

She never called her son by any name but John; 'love,' and 'dear,' and such like terms, were reserved for Fanny.

Ia tak pernah memanggil putranya dengan nama lain selain John; ‘sayang’, ‘manis’, dan sebutan semacamnya hanya untuk Fanny.
