epitaph

碑文，墓志铭英释中释na short piece of writing on the stone over someone’s grave(= place in the ground where someone is buried )

1 His epitaph for himself would have well suited man as he wanted him to be..他为自己写的墓志铭非常适合像他所期望成为的那种人。

2 No shockwave swept through the Arab world as news of Bin Laden's death spread, and that is perhaps the most fitting epitaph..拉登死讯的传播并未形成席卷阿拉伯世界的冲击波，也许这个作为墓志铭是再合适不过的了。

3 I would say that all of those ways of reading the epitaph are consistent with hermeneutics..可以说所有这些解读这条墓志铭的方法,都和现代阐释学相一致。
