OG SC 154

falchion

OG语法154

In 1791 Robert Carter III,one of the wealthiest plantation owners in Virginia,stunned his family friends,and neighbors by filing a deed of emancipation,setting free the more than 500slaves who were legally considered his property.请高手指点OG中提到画线部分the的含义,以及为什么OG讲considered as is unidiomatic.

thx

1. the 特指，所以the more than 500 slaves说明多于500的这些slaves是Robert Carter III的，而B，the 500 slaves是Robert Carter III的，再加上more than 说明多于500的这部分不是Robert Carter III的，造成了错误的意思。

2. consider+名词1+名词2，或名词1+be considered+名词2，as多余。
