Unit 11 英语定语从句的翻译

四、状译法 英语的定语从句,它从语法上看是 修饰定语从句的先行词的,但实际上限定作用不强,而是修饰 主句的谓语或全句的,起状语作用。也就是说,有些定语从句 兼有状语从句的职能,在意义上与主句有状语关系,表明原因、 结果、目的、让步、假设等关系。在这种情况下,需要灵活处 理,在准确理解英语原文的基础上,弄清楚逻辑关系,然后把 英语中的这些定语从句翻译成各种相应的分句。
我试图提出一种理论,这种理论就我所知,还未曾 有人提出过,那就是:只有能说话的动物才能笑。 人是惟一能说话的动物,所以也是惟一能笑的动物。
定语从句单独成句,这种翻译技巧在非限制性定语从句中常 见.
This system is often referred to as the “free enterprise system” and can be contrasted to a socialist economy, which depends heavily on government planning and on public ownership of the means of production.
(二)省略先行词 如果把定语从句翻译在先行词后面,在“通顺、完整” 的前提下,有时候可以不用重复先行词。
It is he who received the letter that announced the death of your uncle. 是他接到那封信,说你的叔叔去世了。 They worked out a new method by which production has now been rapidly increased. 他们制定出一种新方案,采用之后生产已迅速得到提高。 After dinner, the four key negotiators resumed their talks, which continued well into the night. 饭后,四个主要谈判人物继续进行会谈,一直谈到深夜。

定语从句翻译

定语从句翻译
1.译成定语“的”字结构
• 这是最为常见的一种英译汉的方式,翻译成中 文时,将定语部分放在被修饰名词的前面。
• 例1:He is not the one who will give up easily. 译文:他不是一个轻易服输的人。
• 例2:Our two countries are neighbors whose friendship is of long standing. 译文:我们两国是友谊长存的友好邻邦。
3.译成相对独立的小分句
• 有些定语从句在修饰关系上与先行词之间关系显得较 为疏远,这时,我们通常会将定语从句译成独立的句 子。
• 例1: One was a violent thunderstorm, the worst I had ever seen, which obscured my objective. 译文:有一次暴风骤雨,猛烈的程度实在是我平生所 鲜见的。这场暴风雨遮住了我的目标。
2.不翻译关系代词或关系副词
• 有些定语从句表面上是非限制性定语从句,但在意义上却已经和 主句融为了一体。在翻译时,应该将引导定语从句的关系词省略, 从而使句子的意思显得更为连贯。
• 例1: After dinner, the four key negotiators resumed their talks, which continued well into the night. 译文:晚饭后,四个主要谈判人物继续进行会谈,一直谈到深夜。
• 二、分译法:
• 分译法是指将主句和从句分开翻译的一种方法, 主要用于较长的非限制性定语从句里。采用这 种方法可避免句子的冗长和累赘。这种方法一 般采用主句在前,从句在后的翻译形式,将句 子翻译成两个相对独立的小分句。

Translation Practice of Attributive Clause
Answer Analysis: The correct translation of this sentence is " 中了彩票的那个人现在成了百万 富翁。" The relative clause "who won the lottery" modifies "person". In Chinese, we use "那" to indicate the specific person, and "中了彩票 的" as the modifying phrase.

《定语从句》的翻译方法

《定语从句》的翻译方法

《定语从句》的翻译方法一:中、英文定语差异:1.中文:一个词修饰另一个词时,如:清香的茶叶、有趣的书籍。

可见在中文中,一个词修饰另一个词时,定语部分是前置的。

(清香的、有趣的)一个句子修饰另一个词时,如:趴在门口的猫、昨晚睡得很晚的茶茶。

可见在中文中,一个短语、一个句子甚至多个句子修饰一个词时,定语也是前置的。

(趴在门口的、昨晚睡得很晚的)当然也有特例,如中国古代汉语:中国疆域之辽阔,“之辽阔”就是后置定语,翻译时要翻译成China has a vast territory.2.英文:一个词修饰另一个词时,如:a beautiful girl,a child adopted.可见在英文中,一个词修饰另一个词时,定语可以前置也可以后置。

(beautiful,adopted)一个句子修饰另一个词时,如:a boy standing under the tree.可见英文中,所有的词组和句子在修饰一个单词时一定是后置的。

(which may help you pass the exam,standing under the tree.)看到这里,问题来了:因为英文中所有的定语从句都是放在被修饰词后面的,而中文是放在前面的,所以英译中时,一般需要将定语从句放到被修饰词前面翻译。

(前置译法)如:a book which may help you pass the exam.一本能帮助你通过考试的书。

当然也有将定语从句放到被修饰词后的译法(后置译法),之后再讨论。

二:中英文语序差异:先看一段话:中国作为一个发展中的大国高度重视中美两国之间的友谊。

翻译1:China is a major developing country and attaches great importance to the bilateral relations between China and the U.S.翻译2:As a major developing country,China attaches great importance to the bilateral relations between China and the U.S.这两种翻译看上去都是对的,因为两种都不影响理解。

英-译-汉-定语从句的译法

英-译-汉-定语从句的译法英译汉定语从句的译法定语从句可以分为限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句两种,两类定语从句在翻译方法上基本类似, 因此我们把它们放在一起介绍。

在翻译定语从句时,我们经常采用下列的翻译方法:一、前置法把英语原文的定语从句翻译成带“的”的定语词组, 放置于被修饰的词之前, 将英语原文的复合句翻译成汉语的简单句, 这种方法一般用于限制性定语从句比较短的情况。

一些较短的具有描述性的非限制性定语从句也可采用前置法, 但没有限制性定语从句使用得普遍。

例如:例1.For example, one function of friendship seems to fulfill is that it supports the image we have of ourselves, and confirms the value of the attitudes we hold.例如, 友谊的一个作用似乎是支持我们在自己心目中的形象, 并使我们持有的价值观念更加坚定。

例2.The first two must be equal for all who are being compared, if any comparison in terms of intelligence is to be made. (92年考题)如果要从智力方面进行任何比较的话, 那么对所有被比较者来说, 前两个因素必须是一样的。

例3.The first method is to give a synonym, a word that has nearly the same meaning as the word you wish to define: face for countenance, nervousness for anxiety.第一种方法是同义词法, 即给出一个与需要释义的词在意义上几乎相同的, 如用face表示countenance, 用nervousness表示anxiety.例4.Behaviourists, in contrast, say that difference in scores are due to the fact that blacks are often deprived of many of the educational and other environmental advantages that whites enjoy. (90年考题)相反, 行为主义者认为, 成绩的差异是由于黑人常常被剥夺了白人在教育及其他外界环境方面所享有的许多有利条件而造成的。

译文赏析 (2006 年全国英语考研翻译试题 ): 1 ) I shall define him as an individual who has elected as his primary duty and pleasure in life the activity of thinking in Socratic( 苏格拉底 ) way about moral problems. 2 ) His function is analogous to that of a judge, who must accept the obligation of revealing in as obvious a matter as possible the course of reasoning which led him to his decision. 3 ) I have excluded him because, while his accomplishments may contribute to the solution of moral problems, he has not been charged with the task of approaching any but the factual aspects of those problems. 4 ) But his primary task is not to think about the moral code, which governs his activity, any more than a businessman is expected to dedicate his energies to an exploration of rules of conduct in business. 5 ) They may teach very well and more than earn their salaries, but most of them make little or no independent reflections on human problems , which involve moral judgment.
英语定语成分与汉语定语成分差异: 1.从位置上看,汉语中定语一般前置,且不宜过长, 汉语习惯用短词,短句;英语中的除单词外的定语 一般后置,长而复杂。 2.从功能上看,汉语的定语只对中心词起修饰和限 定作用,而英语的定语成分除起修饰和限定作用之 外,还含有补充,交代细节,分层叙述,以及表示 条件,原因,目的,结果,让步,转折或假设等关 系。

第十一章 定语从句的翻译
定语从句是汉语中没有,英语中广泛使用的从句之一。 英国语法家罗伯特.瓦伦丁(Robert Balentine): “Attributives are to a sentence what feather are to a peacock. As fine feathers make a fine bird, so graceful attributes make a graceful sentence.” “定语之于句子,犹如羽毛之于孔雀。只有漂亮的羽毛 才能装饰成美丽的孔雀;同样,优雅的定语才能修饰 出美妙的句子。”
