When Cook found the Australian aborigines, he had no idea whatsoever of what their culture was about.

当库克发现澳大利亚原住民时 对于他们的文化 他一无所知。

The Australian Aborigines have recorded both real and symbolic images of their time on rock walls for many thousands of years.

澳大利亚原住民已经持续数千年在石墙上记录他们所处时代现实的及非现实的画面。

This hearkened back uncomfortably to earlier beliefs that some modern races such as the African " Bushmen" (properly the Kalahari San) and Australian Aborigines were more primitive than others.

这是以前一种看法的回光返照，令人觉得不大舒服，那种看法认为非洲“丛林人”（确切地说是萨马拉桑人）、澳大利亚土著居民这样一些少数民族比别的民族更为原始。

The Australian Aborigines were nomadic and reclusive, and their numbers relatively small (perhaps 200,000, speaking over 200 separate languages), so the loanwords they contributed to English were few and mainly limited to local plant and animal names.

澳大利亚原住民游牧隐居，人数相对较少（大约 200,000 人，说 200 多种不同的语言），因此他们为英语贡献的外来词很少，主要局限于当地的植物和动物名称。
