英语中六个中国特色的音译词

英语中六个中国特色的音译词

英语中六个中国特色的音译词近日有中国媒体为“《牛津英语词典》可能收录‘土豪’(Tuhao)等中文词”这类新闻自得:“中国贡献的英语单词,正不知不觉、越来越多地融入了国际生活的方方面面……从深层次看……反映了中国正在融入全球化进程。

”现在像“Guanxi”、“Chengguan”这种“中国特色”的中文音译词语经常出现英文读物中。

这些词源于中国没错,却不见得可以自豪。

“Guanxi”:被收入牛津词典的最出名中文音译词.被收入牛津词典的中文音译词,最出名的就是“Guanxi”。

《牛津英语词典》对此的释义是:“源于中国普通话,字面上理解和‘联系’是一个意思,特指在中国有助于商业活动和其他交易的社交网络系统、有影响力的人际关系。

”2013年美国《大西洋月刊》的一篇文章《摩根大通在中国:为何‘照常营业’越来越难》对“Guanxi”这个字在英语语境中的含义做了更明白的解读:“每个去中国的外国人到中国后不久,都会学到一个神奇的单词:‘Guanxi’。

这是这个13亿人的国家中必要的东西。

有了‘Guanxi’,就能意味着得到一份工作、进入不错的学校、或帮助新企业避免不必要的政府关注。

‘拉拉’‘Guanxi’,就能快速而不费事地解决棘手的问题。

”Chengguan”:源于媒体对“中国市政准警察力量”的报道.Chengguan”这一单词,源于英文媒体报道中国城管时无法找到对应的英文单词,只能音译。

2013年7月《大西洋月刊》介绍中国“城管”制度的文章题目便是《见过“Chengguan”:中国受憎恨的、暴虐的地方警察》,其中对“Chengguan”的介绍是:“作为在中国最被广泛厌恶的市政警察,从常规警察部门中分离出来的‘Chengguan’负责管理城市生活中最卑下的一部分……虽然每个社会都有警察滥用暴力,但‘Chengguan’的残暴是中国独有的。

”2013年8月《华尔街日报》以《中国城市准警察的定时炸弹》一文来介绍“城管”制度:“‘Chengguan’是中国城市政府组织、雇佣的辅助性准警察力量,负责管理各种市政问题。

中国特色词汇及英译中国特色词汇及英译中国特色词汇及英译中国特色词汇及英译中文摘要中国特色词汇是中国英语研究中相当重要的一部分。

中国特色词汇是表达中国文化中的特有事物,其中蕴藏着中国千百年文化的内涵,当中国的文化传出中国走向世界的时候,这些中国特色词汇又是怎样不失原味的被翻译成外语从而被外国人所接受的呢?本文将以中国特色词汇翻译成英文为例,介绍了一些中国特色词汇的被译成英语的方法,它们分别是音译、直译、意译等,通过这些方法可使大家基本了解中国特色词汇在英语交际是怎样被转换并被使用的,逐渐融合进传统英语中的,以满足人们日常生活中用英语交流的需要。

除此之外,还将浅谈中国特色词汇所对应的特别的英文词汇出现的原因之一:中西文化差异造成的词汇空缺。

并对文化差异进行细分详细阐述。

还将提出一些关于中国特色词汇在英语国家传播的前景的看法。

关键词:中国特色词汇;文化差异;翻译AbstractChinese culture-loaded words are becoming increasingly important in the study of China English. Chinese culture-loaded words refer to the uniqueness of Chinese items, and of course, contain the connotation of Chinese culture. With the wide spread of Chinese culture to the world, how can they be understood and accepted by foreigners accurately in translation? The paper, by giving a good number of examples, introduces some methods of translating Chinese culture-loaded words, including transliteration, literal translation, free translation and so on. These methods help to understand how Chinese culture-loaded words are transformed into and used in English, and how they gradually integrate into the traditional English and satisfy the demand of communication in English. In addition, the paper is to expose in detail lexical gap caused by cultural differences between the East and the West. Furthermore, it also offers some views on the prospect of the spread of Chinese culture-loaded in English-speaking countries.Key words: Chinese culture-loaded words; culture differences; translation一、前言英语从它传入中国的第一天开始就发挥着强大的交流作用,同时也开始了在中国发展的过程。

盘点那些自带“中国标签”的英文词汇

盘点那些自带“中国标签”的英文词汇

盘点那些自带“中国标签”的英文词汇作者:钱伟来源:《英语学习》2018年第08期中国是世界文明古国之一,历史悠久,文化灿烂,有许多举世公认的发明和发现。

这些凝聚着先人聪明智慧和辛勤汗水的成果传到海外,为人类文明的发展与进步做出了巨大贡献。

为了纪念其故乡,英文中产生了不少以“Chinese”作为限定詞的专有名词,大致可分为如下几类。

第一类是原产于中国的植物,包括一些特色花卉和蔬果。

常见的有:1. Chinese Rose——月季花月季在中国有两千多年的栽培历史。

相传上古时代就有人把野月季挖回家栽植,汉朝时宫廷花园中已大量栽培,唐朝时更为普遍。

由于气候原因,中国古代月季栽培多集中在长江流域一带。

月季与玫瑰、蔷薇同属蔷薇科,系形态相似的姐妹花,英文统称为rose。

其共同点之一是枝条上有刺,所以英文中说No rose without thorn. 译成汉语为“蔷薇朵朵皆有刺”。

为了区分,月季在英语中常被叫作Chinese Rose。

2. Chinese Peony——牡丹(芍药)花牡丹和芍药是中国的传统名花,因花硕色艳、雍容华贵而深受国人喜爱,历来并称为“花中二绝”(牡丹为花王,芍药为花相)。

二者因系同一科属(毛科、芍药属)的亲缘花卉,外形相似,英语统称为peony。

但为区别,英文中有时也用Chinese tree peony来表示木本的牡丹;用Chinese herbaceous peony来表示草本的芍药。

3. Chinese Cabbage(Bok choy or Pak choi)——白菜白菜原产于我国北方,栽培历史悠久。

明代医药学家李时珍说:“菘,凌冬晚凋,四时常见,有松之操,故曰菘,今俗谓之白菜。

”明朝时白菜传入朝鲜半岛,成为朝鲜泡菜(kimchi)的主要原料。

19世纪,白菜传入欧美各国。

现在市场上常见的有大白菜与小白菜两种,与原产于地中海沿岸的圆白菜(亦称卷心菜、洋白菜、包菜,英文为cabbage)属于近亲。

中国特色相关英语词汇China's Unique Linguistic Landscape: Exploring the Nuances of Chinese-Influenced English VocabularyChina's rise on the global stage has not only transformed its economic and political landscape but has also left an indelible mark on the English language. As the world's most populous country and a major player in international affairs, China's cultural and linguistic influence has permeated various aspects of modern life, including the English lexicon. This essay delves into the unique and fascinating world of Chinese-influenced English vocabulary, exploring the nuances and complexities that emerge from this cross-cultural exchange.One of the most prominent examples of Chinese-influenced English vocabulary is the term "guanxi." This concept, which is deeply rooted in Chinese culture, refers to the intricate web of personal relationships and social connections that play a crucial role in professional and personal dealings. Guanxi is not merely a transactional exchange but rather a complex system of mutual obligations, reciprocity, and social etiquette. The word "guanxi" has become a ubiquitous term in the business world, as it encapsulatesthe importance of relationship-building and networking in the Chinese context.Another intriguing example is the word "tao." Derived from the philosophical concept of the Tao, or the "way," this term has found its way into the English language as a descriptor for a holistic and harmonious approach to life. In the Chinese tradition, the Tao represents the ultimate source of all things, a cosmic principle that guides the natural flow of the universe. When used in an English context, "tao" often conveys a sense of balance, mindfulness, and a deep understanding of the interconnectedness of all things.The concept of "face," or "mianzi," is another fascinating aspect of Chinese-influenced English vocabulary. In Chinese culture, face is a multifaceted construct that encompasses one's social standing, reputation, and sense of dignity. Maintaining face, or avoiding the loss of face, is of paramount importance in social interactions. The English term "face" has taken on additional nuances, reflecting the Chinese cultural emphasis on preserving public image and avoiding shame or embarrassment.The term "feng shui" is perhaps one of the most well-known examples of Chinese-influenced English vocabulary. Originating from the ancient Chinese practice of harmonizing individuals with their surrounding environment, feng shui has become a globalphenomenon, influencing interior design, architecture, and even personal decision-making. The English usage of "feng shui" often connotes a holistic approach to creating balanced and auspicious spaces, blending traditional Chinese principles with modern Western sensibilities.Another intriguing word is "qi," which represents the fundamental life force or energy that is believed to flow through all living things in Chinese philosophy and medicine. In the English context, "qi" has been used to describe the subtle, yet powerful, energetic forces that shape our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. This concept has found its way into practices such as acupuncture, tai chi, and various forms of holistic healing.The influence of Chinese culture on English vocabulary extends beyond specific terms and into the realm of idiomatic expressions. For instance, the phrase "to lose face" has become a common English idiom, reflecting the Chinese cultural emphasis on preserving one's social standing and reputation. Similarly, the concept of "saving face" has been adopted into the English language, capturing the importance of maintaining dignity and avoiding public humiliation.Furthermore, the Chinese philosophy of yin and yang, the idea of complementary opposites that form a harmonious whole, has foundits way into the English language. Terms like "yin-yang" or "yin and yang" are now used to describe the balance and interplay of contrasting forces, not only in the Chinese context but also in various aspects of Western thought and practice.In conclusion, the integration of Chinese-influenced vocabulary into the English language is a testament to the profound cultural exchange that has taken place between China and the rest of the world. These words and concepts not only enrich the English lexicon but also offer a glimpse into the rich and nuanced perspectives of Chinese philosophy, tradition, and way of life. As globalization continues to shape the linguistic landscape, the continued integration of Chinese-influenced vocabulary into English promises to be a fascinating and ongoing process, one that will continue to reflect the dynamic and evolving relationship between these two cultural powerhouses.。
