For many years the British-French rivalry has extended from rugby matches, politics and trading insults to trading mortality statistics. Since records (statistics) in France started to be accurately collected, they have reported considerably fewer deaths from heart disease and a longer lifespan than the British.
trade insults 가 숙어표현인 건 알지만 그냥 insults를 교환하다, 주고받는다 = 서로 insult 한다로 받아들일 수도 있다고 생각했는데,
trading mortality statistics 이 부분에서 mortality statistics 를 주고받는다 는 어색할 것 같고, mortality statistics 까지 동원해서 서로를 깐다
이렇게 해석하면 될까요?
