フランス語日記翻訳【123】
Vo.稲葉さん、うちのオトン・オカンと年齢大して変わらないのに、あんな声でるとかやばいっす
うちのオトン、新年カラオケ行って耳がキーンなって「駄目だ」って歌いもせずに帰ったくらいなんで少しは見習ってほしいですね
「あれ？パチンコは大丈夫なのに…」と心の中で思ったことは胸の内にしまっておきます
Le chanteur principal, Inaba, a une voix incroyable malgré son âge, comparable à celui de mes parents. Mon père, quant à lui, est allé au karaoké pour le Nouvel An et a dû partir sans chanter car ses oreilles ne pouvaient pas le supporter. J’aimerais qu’il prenne exemple sur Inaba. Je gardais mes pensées pour moi, me demandant pourquoi il pouvait supporter le pachinko mais pas le karaoké.
“Mon père, quant à lui, est allé au karaoké pour le Nouvel An et a dû partir sans chanter car ses oreilles ne pouvaient pas le supporter.”
Explanation: Here, the focus shifts to the speaker’s father. “Mon père, quant à lui” (My father, on the other hand) sets up a contrast between Inaba and the father. The father went to karaoke for New Year’s (“pour le Nouvel An”) but had to leave without singing because his ears couldn’t handle it (“ses oreilles ne pouvaient pas le supporter”). This suggests that the loud environment of the karaoke was too much for him.
解説
Mon père
Translation: My father
Explanation: The subject of this sentence is the speaker’s father, indicating the action revolves around him.
quant à lui
Translation: as for him / on his part
Explanation: This phrase is used to emphasize that the action described is specifically about the speaker’s father. It often contrasts his experience with that of others mentioned earlier in a conversation.
est allé au karaoké

Explanation: This describes the action of the father. It indicates that he physically went to a karaoke location. The use of “est allé” (the passé composé of aller) suggests a completed action.
pour le Nouvel An
Translation: for New Year’s
Explanation: This clarifies the occasion or reason for the father’s visit to the karaoke venue—it was a New Year celebration.
et a dû partir sans chanter

Explanation:
et: Connects the two actions—going to karaoke and then leaving.
a dû partir: Indicates an obligation or necessity to leave. The verb dû (past participle of devoir) emphasizes that leaving was not optional.
sans chanter: Specifies that he did not get to sing, which is ironic or unfortunate, given the purpose of visiting karaoke.

car: A conjunction meaning “because,” introducing the reason for leaving.
ses oreilles: Refers to his ears, implying a physical discomfort.
