诸如此类的词汇,被笔者称之为“滥词”,即被用到泛滥的词汇。
如果是追求反应速度和效率的口译部分,这样的译文当然没有问题。
可是在时间充裕的笔译部分,这样的简单词汇无疑会令译文质量打上折扣。
至少,无法让阅卷人眼前一亮,难获高分。
出于对以上问题的考虑,笔者总结了中高级口译考试汉英翻译题中出现频率最高的30个常用单词/词组的替换方案,以期帮助同学在短时间内积累一定的亮点词汇。
需要提醒同学们注意的有两点。
一是各个亮点词汇绝不是被替换词的同义词,不可胡乱使用,其具体用法请自行查阅词典。
如waste的替换词中,squander 是动词,luxurious是形容词,用法完全不同。
二是建议同学在此基础上继续
