O que significa "You can spare the same pain befalling another child" ?
- Inglês (RU)
"the same pain" is a reference to whatever bad thing happened to a child in the sentences before this one. Sorry, I can't be more specific without context!
The most literal explaination I could give for "To spare" is "to prevent"... but it also implies that it is an act of mercy or kindness. A judge might spare someone by giving them a less severe punishment or you can spare someone from some kind of misfortune. The word "befalling" also implies that it's a case of bad luck or fate that you can prevent.
By saying "spare the same pain befalling", the writer is making it clear that they do not think the child deserved the pain and trying to pursuade you to act as a rescuer to stop it happening again.
