For a long time, this was sufficient justification for Friedmann's assumption—as a rough approximation to the real universe.

A rough approximation to the average duration of these mountain lakes may be made from data already suggested, but I cannot stop here to present the subject in detail.

可以根据已经提出的数据粗略估计这些高山湖泊的平均持续时间，但我不能就此停下来详细介绍这个主题。

Just beware that Pennywise typically reverts to its true form when close to defeat, and the closest approximation in our universe to its true form is that of a giant spider.

If, however, it should prove easy to secure an approximation to full employment with a rate of accumulation not much greater than at present, an outstanding problem will at least have been solved.

但是，如果事实证明很容易以不比现在高很多的积累率来确保接近充分就业，那么至少一个悬而未决的问题已经解决了。

The concept of hoarding may be regarded as a first approximation to the concept of liquidity-preference. Indeed if we were to substitute 'propensity to hoard' for 'hoarding', it would come to substantially the same thing.

囤积的概念可以被视为流动性偏好概念的第一个近似值。事实上，如果我们用“囤积倾向”代替“囤积”，结果会大体相同。
