engelska-holländska översättning av breast

borst
Dan ben ik het eerder eens met mevrouw Breyer: klopt u zich veeleer op de eigen borst! I am more inclined to agree with Mrs Breyer - if any breast-beating is called for, you do it! Het onderwerp van dit jaar is bijvoorbeeld de preventie, de vroege opsporing en screening van borst- en baarmoederhalskanker. This year's theme, for instance, is the prevention, early detection and screening of breast and cervical cancer. Wij hebben het gebouwd en moeten ons dus ook op de borst kloppen als er daarbij fouten zijn gemaakt. We were the ones who had the house built so we should be the ones beating our own breast if mistakes have been made.
boezem
We moeten echter ook de hand in eigen boezem steken. However, we should also beat our own breast.
