英语翻译
contentment is a kind of achievement in its own right.请问后面的短语 in its own right 是修饰成就感还是满足感?这句话翻译过来该是?
contentment is a kind of achievement in its own right.
如果in its own right修饰contentment则翻译为：知足本身就是一种成就.但是如果修饰achievement,则翻译为：满足感来源于成就感.

Answer 1

in its own right 应该是修饰conentment.
此句是主系表结构.is 后的句子部分全是对contentment的解释,最后的in its own right 应该是主语的补足语.所以应该翻译成：知足本身就是一种成就.
