Does this sentence really match its English translation?

Yes, it matches.

But doesn't 「添い遂げる」 means rather something "to be/ to remain a faithful husband/wife till death" than just "to be married"?

Pfirsichbaeumchen Pfirsichbaeumchen December 29, 2012 December 29, 2012 at 12:57:42 PM UTC link Permalink

It can mean either that or ‘to overcome all difficulties and eventually become husband and wife’ (according to the Kōjien).

It’s the second meaning.

Thanks, Lisa!
I think, it would be really nice if Jim Breen has added "to overcome all..." meaning to his JMDict/EDICT, too. :-)

Maybe you should suggest that to him. ☺

I always use the Kōjien to be absolutely sure (love that book). ☺

Kōjien is undoubtedly great, I reckon. :-) But I'm afraid this book is too tough for beginner learners. :-)
