369. 這位老農大概有三四個孩子，而且他們現在都長大成人，可以在地里干活了。
[誤] The old farmer has about three or four children, who have now grown up and are able to work in the
fields.
[正] The old farmer has three or four children, who have now grown up and are able to work in the fields.
注：漢語可以說“大約有三四個孩子”，但翻譯成英語卻不行。因為about 后面不能接約數，而應該接確定的數目。即：要么去掉 about，只用 three or four；要么用 about，但后面接 three 等具體的數字。
