"我们应该这样理解它,那不是一句话" 英语怎么说?

We should look at it this way. / We should understand this sentence this way. / We'd better understand it as such that
it is not one ( a single ) sentence but two seperate ones.

he has to assimilate the facts, not just remember them
应该理解这些事实，而不是仅仅记住它们

感觉你给的那句话有问题，有点像是 我们应该这样理解它,而不是一句话

We should understand it in this way: it's not one sentence, but two separate ones.

we could understand it in this way:it isn't a single sentence but 2 seperate ones
