4行目の「in order not to」は「not to」には置き換えられないと習いました。どういうことですか？😭

4 Despite the happiness his new life brought, Saroo missed his family in India.
He also wondered about his origins. He believed his memories about India
would help him hold onto his identity. Since he couldn't read and write back
then, he often recalled them in his mind in order not to forget any detail. Sue,
Saroo's adoptive mother, was an understanding person. She noticed Saroo was
a lovely sensible child when he came, so she knew he had been loved by his birth
mother. She believed that his memories of his past were very important to him.
So, to help Saroo keep his memories, she wrote down what he told her in diaries.

「置き換えられない」というのは、「～しないように」を不定詞を使おうとしても、(not to ～) という使い方をしない、ということです
つまり、堅い表現の in order not to ～、so as not to ～ を使うということです

シンシン

例外があって、
tell 人 not to ～
be careful not to ～
はおっけーです

とくに英作文で「～しないように」を英語にしようとして、
「彼は学校に遅刻しないように早く家を出た」は
He left home early not to be late for school. ❌
He left home early in order not to be late for school. ️⭕️
のようになります

not toの訳し方がそもそも「〜しないように」じゃないよってことですか！

そうです
