小阿奇是哈里王子和梅根·马克尔的可爱的半月大的儿子,

is currently on a royal tour in Africa along with his parents for his first official royal engagement.

目前正和父母一起在非洲进行王室旅行,这是他第一次正式参加王室活动。

Along with meeting Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, Archie was the recipient of several gifts

在会见退休大主教德斯蒙德·图图时,

when the family visited the Justice Desk Project, located in Cape Town, South Africa.

阿奇一家还参观了位于南非开普敦的司法服务台项目。

The tiny royal scored a miniature version of a Justice Desk hoodie with the words, "Be a voice for justice," on it and also a new name.

It is a custom in South Africa that those who visit the local township and interact with the community are given a traditional South African Xhosa name.

And what, you might ask, is this new moniker?

Ntsika, which was chosen by the community's grandmothers.

尼斯卡是由社区的祖母们选择的。

The executive director of The Justice Desk, Jessica Dewhurst, told Town & Country,

司法部执行主任杰西卡·德赫斯特告诉《城乡》杂志,

"The reason we chose that was mostly because Archie means the same thing that Ntsika does.

“我们之所以选择它,主要是因为阿奇和恩西卡的意思是一样的。

So Archie means strength, it means bravery and the South African equivalent of that is Ntsika."

因此,阿奇意味着力量,意味着勇敢,在南非,“恩西卡”就是这个意思。

She further explained that when someone gets a traditional name in this fashion, it's also a wish for what you hope a baby grows up to be.

她进一步解释说,以这种方式得到传统名,这也是一个愿望,你希望婴儿长大成为什么样的人。

Archie's new name was announced during an event in Nyanga township,

阿奇的新名字是在尼亚加镇的一个活动中宣布的,

where both the Duke and Duchess delivered speeches and were grateful for the gifts baby Archie received.

Dewhurst said, "Harry and Meghan loved the fact that our presents were for Archie.

德赫斯特说:“哈利和梅根喜欢我们送给阿奇的礼物。

They love the fact that they've brought him here and they can't wait for him to experience the country."

他们喜欢把他带到这里,迫不及待地要他体验这个国家。”

"I am here with you as a mother, as a wife, as a woman, as a woman of color, and as your sister."

“我作为母亲,妻子,女人,有色人种女性,还有你的妹妹,与你同在。”

The tour wasn't just about visiting The Justice Desk, where efforts are made to combat the area's high crime rates.

Mandela, as well as a few carefully-selected books for Archie Children of God Storybook Bible and Desmond and the Very Mean Word.

曼德拉,以及一些为阿奇精心挑选的书籍,《儿童的上帝故事书圣经》和《德斯蒙德的鄙言》。

This children's book was authored by Tutu, and it's about a memory from his South African childhood.

这本儿童读物是图图写的,是关于他南非童年的记忆。

In the book, young Desmond rides his bicycle around town, but is hurt when a group of other boys shout mean words at him.

在这本书中,年轻的德斯蒙德骑着自行车在镇上转悠,但当一群男孩对他大喊大叫时,他受伤了。

Despite this unhappy experience, Desmond discovers compassion.

For the engagement, Markle dressed her baby boy in a super cute outfit from the popular clothing store H&M that retails for around $ 16.

It comes from the brand's Conscious collection and features blue and white striped organic cotton.

它来自该品牌的自知系列,特点是蓝白条纹有机棉。

The duchess is well known for reusing outfits herself instead of buying brand new clothes each time she has a public appearance.

这位公爵夫人每次公开露面都会重复穿着自己的服装,而不是购买全新的衣服,这是众所周知的。

The baby outfit from the Conscious collection probably reflects her efforts to have a more sustainable lifestyle,

从自知系列婴儿服装可能反映出她想要拥有更可持续的生活方式,

as it consists of organic clothing designed to have less of an impact on the environment.

因为它是由有机服装设计,对环境的影响较小。

之后,她将花时间和母亲们在一起,这是一个帮助艾滋病病毒阳性的妇女为医疗保健工作做好准备的慈善机构。

This visit to Cape Town, South Africa was a significant media event for little Archie, as it was his very first official royal visit and his first real moment in the spotlight.

这次访问南非开普敦对小阿奇来说是一次重大的媒体活动,因为这是他第一次正式的皇家访问,也是他第一次真正成为焦点。

CNN's Royal Correspondent Max Foster noted that not only was this a big media moment for the tiny royal,

美国有线电视新闻网的王室记者马克斯·福斯特指出,这不仅是这个小王室成员接触媒体的重要时刻,

but also for Desmond Tutu, saying, "We shouldn't forget that this is a rare appearance by Desmond Tutu this aging icon of the anti-apartheid movement here.

对于德斯蒙德·图图也很重要,他说,“我们不应该忘记,德斯蒙德·图图这个反种族隔离运动的老偶像并不经常出现在这里。

He's not seen very often in public so this was a historic piece of video in two senses."

他很少在公共场合露面,所以从两个方面来说这是一段历史性的视频。”
