[디어 애비로 배우는 네이티브 생생영어]


☞ DEAR ABBY: My son-in-law gave me a tablet that he was not using, as he had upgraded. He removed most of his information.

사위가 업그레이드를 하며 사용하지 않는 태블릿 한 대를 제게 주었어요. 그는 대부분의 정보를 삭제했어요.


When I went to set up my accounts, I noticed his list of apps and passwords was still present and saw four accounts to an adult dating site.

제 계정을 설정하려 했을 때, 저는 그의 앱과 비밀번호 목록이 여전히 존재한다는 것을 알아차렸고 성인 데이트사이트에 있는 네 개의 계정을 보게 되었어요.


My daughter and SIL have been together/married for four years. The tablet is less than 2 years old.

제 딸과 사위는 결혼한 지 4년째에요. 이 태블릿은 2년 미만 된 것이고요.


I don't know what to do: (1) act like I never saw it, (2) tell him what I found and hope for a good explanation, or (3) tell my daughter. This will destroy her. Please help!

제가 어떻게 해야 할지 모르겠어요: (1) 본 적이 절대 없는 것처럼 행동한다, (2) 발견한 것을 그에게 말하고 좋은 설명을 바란다, (3) 딸에게 말해라.
이 일은 제 딸을 파괴할 거에요. 도와주세요!


- SIGN ME DEVASTATED
- 엄청난 충격을 받은 독자



☞ DEAR DEVASTATED: Tell your son-in-law what you found and ask for an explanation. What he tells you will determine what steps you should take next.

충격 받은 독자님께: 사위에게 당신이 발견한 것을 얘기하고 설명을 요구하세요.
그가 당신에게 하는 말로 당신의 다음 행동을 결정할 수 있을 거예요.


KEY WORDS
■ son-in-law 사위 (=SIL)
