Earlier this year, American songwriter Bob Dylan became the first musician to win the Nobel Prize in Literature: authentic.
今年的早些时候，美国作曲家鲍勃·迪伦成为了首位获得诺贝尔文学奖的音乐家：真实的。
Dylan's career has stretched over half a century. His fans say he has earned this award.
迪伦的音乐生涯延续了半个世纪。他的粉丝们说他赢得了这个奖。
He shaped our generation. And he shaped the responsibility of artists simply by being so authentic to his desire to tell the truth in song.
他塑造了我们这一代，并且塑造了艺术家们的责任，他是如此真实地在歌里说出了真相。
If something is authentic, it is real and not a copy.
如果某物是原创的，那么它是真的，不是复制品。

When people are described as authentic, it means they are true to their individual identity: the ideas and beliefs that make them who they are.
如果人们被描述为真实的，这意味着他们对于自己的个人认同是诚实的，即对塑造他们的观念和信仰是诚实的。
