<> - Put you on the spot

Lisa : Hey Anna, I have a question for you.
Anna : What is it?
Lisa : I don’t want to put you on the spot, so if you don’t know, that’s all right.
Anna : All right. What is it?
Lisa : I know you’re catholic, and well, I was just wondering what a cardinal is.
Anna : That’s an easy one. A cardinal is essentially is an important bishop. They have a special relationship with the Pope, and act as his advisor. They also determine and announce new Popes as well.
Lisa : I didn’t know that.
Anna : Yup. And if a church is called a cathedral, that means a bishop or a cardinal is seated there.

난처한 질문
Lisa : Anna, 질문이 있어요.
Anna : 뭔데요?
Lisa : 입장 난처하게 하려는 건 아니니까, 답을 몰라도 괜찮아요.
Anna : 알았어요. 질문이 뭔데요?
Lisa : 천주교 신자시니까 그러는 건데, 추기경이 뭔지 궁금해서요.
Anna : 쉬운 질문이네요. 추기경은 한마디로 중요한 주교예요. 교황과 특별한 관계에 있죠. 교황에게 자문을 해 주는 역할이에요. 새로운 교황을 선출하고 발표하는 일도 하죠.
Lisa : 몰랐네요.
Anna : 그렇답니다. 그리고 성당이 cathedral이라고 불린다면, 그곳에는 주교나 추기경이 있다는 뜻이에요.
