Question

翻译一个句子，谢谢

"Over the past year, Assad has become not just a brutal dictator but a defender of a segment of the population," Nasr says. 请问这句话当中的a segment of the population是什么意思？

Answer 1

“在过去的时间里,阿萨德不仅仅是一个残暴的独裁者,而且是部分民众的守卫者,”纳斯尔说。
"Over the past year, Assad has become not just a brutal dictator but a defender of a segment of the population," Nasr says.

在这里运用not just……but (also)……”不仅……而且“ 的句式。

segment在这里是”部分“的意思，a segment of the population就是”一部分民众“的意思。

Answer 2

是一部分人口的意思，a segment of 是固定搭配。population 是人口的意思，名词。

Answer 3

貌似：一部分人口
