Dänisch-Englisch Übersetzung für hovmod

arroganceBecause in most states, my own included, the leaders fear the verdict of their people, adding cowardice to their arrogance. Fordi lederne i de fleste stater, deriblandt Det Forenede Kongerige, frygter deres befolknings dom og dermed supplerer deres hovmod med fejhed. I stand by my opinion that the Commission's answer is a study in arrogance, whereas, by contrast, I am delighted with the much more constructive response from the Council. Det er fortsat min opfattelse, at Kommissionens svar kan anvendes som et studium i hovmod, mens jeg til gengæld kan glæde mig over Rådets mere konstruktive svar. In order to exercise its competences responsibly, however, this Parliament must be demanding rather than complacent, it cannot resort to haughtiness nor act with the arrogance of a mandarin. For at kunne udøve dets beføjelser ansvarligt er Parlamentet imidlertid nødt til at stille krav i stedet for at give efter, og det må ikke ty til hovmod eller opføre sig som en arrogant mandarin.
