To him womanhood is summed up in one of its attributes — wifehood, or its unlegalized equivalent.

对他来说，女性身份可以概括为它的一种属性——妻子身份， 或者其非法的等价物。

Decidedly, this woman was too young to be on the formidable level of wifehood — unless she had been pale and featureless and taken everything for granted.

可以肯定的是，这个女人还太年轻，无法成为令人生畏的妻子——除非她脸色苍白，面无表情，认为一切都是理所当然的。
