Question

英语翻译问题？

some experts even consider lying a developmental milestone .
这句话在翻译的时候把它翻译成consider doing sth 结构，结果没看懂，但是之后才发现它是宾语和宾补的结构。前一种翻译错误是因为lying 是不及物动词吗？假如它是及物动词就要翻译成第一种结构？

Answer 1

这一句的上下文如下：
Psychologists have documented children lying as early as age 2. Some experts even consider lying a developmental milestone, like crawling and walking, because it requires sophisticated planning, attention and the ability to see a situation from someone else's perspective to effectively manipulate them.
据心理学家记载，幼儿早在2岁时就会撒谎。有些专家甚至视“撒谎”为一个发展的里程碑，就像爬行和走路一样，因为这些行为需要复杂的计划、专注力以及从他人角度观察情势的能力，来有效地驾驭。

Answer 2
