生育率是一种假设，基本上是推测的数字，和出生率不同。
The fertility rate is a hypothetical, almost conjectural number.
欧盟的生育率为1.47——刚好低于替代出生率。
The fertility rate in the EU is 1.47-well below replacement.
这种论调模糊了一个论点，即：对于美国与以色列之外的先进国家而言，“替代生育率”与婴儿的低出生率，二者必居其一。
This obscures the point: for every big advanced country besides America and Israel, the alternative to “replacement rate” fertility is a baby bust.
尽管此后生育率略微上升到1.5，但将出生率推动到所需要的高比率将带来巨大的社会变革。
Although the birth rate has edged up since then to 1.5, it would take a huge social change to push it as high as is needed.
结婚率暴跌，随之而来的出生率，以及非婚生育率在日本也很少。
The marriage rate has plummeted, and with it the birthrate, since out-of-wedlock births are rare in Japan.
生育率下降这一趋势是普遍的——整体出生率下降了3％ 。
The trend towards lower numbers is general - the birth rate fell overall by 3 percent.
生育率通过女性一生生育孩子的平均数量来衡量。全球女性的生育率正不断下降，而全球人口还在不断增加，这是因为人口出生率依旧很高。
Fertility, , measured by the average number of children that would be born to a woman over herlifetime, is declining across the world but the population continues to rise as rates remain high.

2013年，女性人均生育率只有1.86，而更少的出生率和下滑的人口就意味着更低的消费水平。
In2013, women were only averaging 1.86. Fewer babies and a declining population means less consumer spending. "You're talking about a lot of disposable income."
