Question

How did it come about that he made so many mistake in his homework ?

请问有谁知道come about 在句子中翻译成什么意思呢？是不是“发生”的意思呢？

Answer 1

come
about
的原意是“发生，产生”但是我个人认为这里应该翻成“怎么回事，他的家庭作业竟然出现了这么多错误”

Answer 2

他作业里怎么犯了那么多错误？
come about 是"发生"的意思，相当于happen, 还有一个地道的说法同样表达这个句子的意思：How come he made so many mistakes in his homework?

Answer 3

come about
基本翻译
v. 发生

在他的作业中怎么会发生犯如此多错误的事情呢

Answer 4

是 ，可以翻译成“发生”
