For decades, Philip, duke of Edinburgh, has shared the public life of Britain's Queen Elizabeth II. They were married in 1947, and since February 6th, 1952 when she ascended the throne, the prince has participated in hundreds of public events with her each year. But an announcement was made yesterday that the public see a lot less of the prince.
數(shù)十年來,愛丁堡公爵菲利普親王一直陪同英國女王伊麗莎白二世出席公開活動(dòng)。二人于1947年結(jié)婚,伊麗莎白二世于1952年2月6日登基。自那時(shí)起,菲利普親王每年都陪同女王出席數(shù)百個(gè)公開活動(dòng)。但是英國昨日發(fā)表的一份聲明中稱,親王將大幅減少公開露面。

CNN新聞?dòng)浾唏R克思•福斯特將從倫敦白金漢宮為您帶來詳細(xì)報(bào)道。
In the early hours of the morning, news leaked of an emergency meeting here at Buckingham Palace. It turns out that senior staff were called in for a special announcement. That announcement was in effect that Prince Philip is stepping back from public life.
凌晨,有消息稱白金漢宮召開緊急會(huì)議。據(jù)悉一份特殊聲明召集高級(jí)別官員參會(huì)。這份聲明稱菲利普親王將不再出席公開活動(dòng)。
He's not unwell, but he is about to turn 96 years old and he's made his own decision, we're told. He just pretty much doesn't want to do it anymore.
我們被告知,他并沒有生病,但他即將滿96歲,而這是他本人做出的決定。他只是不想再出席公開活動(dòng)。
So, the queen will carry on with her role in public life. We just won't see Prince Philip alongside her in a way that we used to. Occasionally, he'll turn up in public. It means that other members of the royal family will have to step up.
英國女王將繼續(xù)履行其職責(zé),出席各種公開活動(dòng)。只不過我們不會(huì)再像往常一樣看到菲利普親王伴其左右。但菲利普親王還會(huì)時(shí)不時(shí)出現(xiàn)在公眾面前。此舉意味著皇室其他成員將不得不多出席公開活動(dòng)。
We know that Prince William and the duchess of Cambridge are moving down here to London. We'll see more of them. We'll see more Prince Charles as well.
眾所周知威廉王子和劍橋公爵夫人將抵達(dá)倫敦。我們會(huì)看到他們出席更多活動(dòng)。當(dāng)然,也會(huì)看到查爾斯王子出席更多活動(dòng)。
So, this is part of a gradual transition process. Buckingham Palace stage-managing how things move on.
這是漸進(jìn)式過渡的一部分。白金漢宮將控制過渡進(jìn)程。
The next king, Prince Charles, will have a higher presence. Prince Philip will have almost no presence. And the queen probably will have a bit of a smaller presence as well.
下一任王位繼承人查爾斯王子出席公開活動(dòng)的次數(shù)將增加。菲利普親王幾乎不會(huì)再出席公開活動(dòng)。英國女王公開露面的次數(shù)可能也會(huì)減少。
He'll be missed in public life. He's known for his gaffes. He's said some pretty extraordinary things over the years. But clearly, he wants to sit back. It's time for him to take a backseat and we're not going to see him in public life. And that's pretty big moment in British and royal history.
菲利普親王將不再出席公開活動(dòng),但他時(shí)常失言。多年來,他曾多次言出驚人。不過顯然,他想要休息了?,F(xiàn)在是他退居二線的時(shí)候了,我們不會(huì)再看到他出席公開活動(dòng)。這是英國和皇室歷史上的一個(gè)重大時(shí)刻。
From Buckingham Palace, I'm Max Foster.
