最容易翻译错的25个汉语句子

最容易翻译错的25个汉语句子

最容易翻译错的25个汉语句子1. 你是做什么工作的呢?False: What’s your job?True: Are you working at the moment?what’s your job这种说法难道也有毛病吗?是的。

因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业,如此直接的问法会让对方有失面子,所以您要问:目前您是在上班吗,Are you working at the moment,接下来您才问:目前您在哪儿工作呢,where are you working these days,或者您从事哪个行业呢,What line of work are you in,顺带说一下,回答这类问题时不妨说得具体一点,不要只是说经理或者秘书。

2. 我很喜欢它。

False: I very like it.True: I like it very much.3 这个价格对我挺合适的。

False: The price is very suitable for me.True: The price is right.suitable(合适的、相配的)最常见的用法是以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上,如:下列节目儿童不宜。

The following programme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。

4. 用英语怎么说?False: How to say in English?True: How do you say this in English?How to say是在中国最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一,这决不是地道的英语说法。

同样的句子有:请问这个词如何拼写,How do you spell that please,请问这个单词怎么读,How do you pronounce this word。

5. 明天我有事情要做。

False: I have something to do tomorrow.True: Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow.用I have something to do来表示您很忙,这也完全是中国式的说法。

无法直译成中文的英语单词

无法直译成中文的英语单词

无法直译成中文的英语单词篇一:有很多英语单词无法直接翻译成中文,因为它们有着不同的文化背景和历史渊源。

这些单词通常被称为“外来语”或“音译词”。

下面是一些例子:1. "Auerdem" - 这是一个德国单词,意思是“此外,另外”。

它不能直接翻译为中文,因为中文中没有类似的语言表达方式。

2. "Koffer" - 这是一个意大利单词,意思是“包裹”。

在中文中,我们可以使用“包裹”来表达这个意思,但意大利语中的“koffer”有着独特的形状和含义。

3. "Gesprch" - 这是一个德国单词,意思是“谈话”。

德国和瑞士的德语中有许多这样的外来语,它们在中文中无法直接翻译。

4. "Türke" - 这是一个土耳其单词,意思是“土耳其语”。

这也说明了学习外语的重要性,可以让我们更好地理解和交流不同的文化。

外来语在英语中也非常普遍,尤其是在科技和商业领域。

例如,“HTML”是“超文本标记语言”的缩写,而“CSS”则是“层叠样式表”的缩写。

这些单词不能直接翻译为中文,因为它们有着不同的含义和表达方式。
