How to use the word "REPLICA"??
Hello, I've got a sentence that using "replica" I'm confused how to understand or use the word in the sentence.
however, the sentence is like ...
Longfield has a modern replica of a farm from over two thousand years ago.
I'm confusing how to make sure this sentence paraphrase to having same meaning.
so I understood this sentence as two ways like below.
1. The farm in Longfield has already finished its renovation in the past, so now, there is a modern farm which is similar with the one that built two thousand years ago.
2. The farm in Longfield is still being under construction during two thousand years.
Please give me your answer.

Interpretation 1 is the correct way to understand the statement. A replica is something that is identical to the original item.
For example, when people look for collectibles(an items of value that is no longer made), they always make sure they have the original, not a replica.

A replica is an exact copy.
Interpretation 1) is correct.
원래의 농장은 2000년 전에 존재했던 농장이다.
요즘의 농장은 원래보다 완전히 다르다.
지금 있는 농장은 원래의 농장의 정확한 모조품이다.
이게 말이 되나요?
