要求：字数不得少于150字。
燕子去了，有再来的时候；杨柳枯了，有再青的时候；桃花谢了，有再开的时候。
但是，聪明的，你告诉我，我们的日子为什么一去不复返呢？——是有人偷了他们吧：那是谁？又藏在何处呢？是他们自己逃走了吧：现在又到了哪里呢？我不知道他们给了我多少日子；但我的手确乎是渐渐空虚了。
在默默里算着，八千多日子已经从我手中溜去；像针尖上一滴水滴在大海里，我的日子滴在时间的流里，没有声音，也没有影子。
我不禁汗涔涔而泪潸潸了。
1）Rush （translated by Zhu Chunshen）Swallows may have gone, but there is a time of return; willow trees may have died back, but there is a time of re-greening; peach blossoms may have fallen, but they will bloom again. Now, you the wise, tell me, why should our days leave us, never to return? — If they had been stolen by someone, who could it be? Where could he hide then? If they had made the escape themselves, then where could they stay at the moment?I do not know how many days I have been given to spend, but I do feel my hands are getting empty. Taking stock silently, I find that more than eight thousand days has already slid away from me. Like a drop of water from the point of a needle disappearing into the ocean, my days are dripping into the stream of time, soundless, traceless. Already sweat is starting on my forehead, and tears welling up in my eyes.2）Transient Days (translated by Zhang Peiji)If swallows go away, they will come back again. If willows wither, they will turn green again. If peach blossoms fade, they will flower again. But, tell me, you the wise, why should our days go by never to return? Perhaps they have been stolen by someone. But who could it be and where could he hide them? Perhaps they have just run away by themselves. But where could they be at the present moment?I don't know how many days I am entitled to altogether, but my quota of them is undoubtedly wearing away. Counting up silently, I find that more than 8,000 days have already slipped away through my fingers. Like a drop of water falling off a needle point into the ocean, my days are quietly dripping into the stream of time without leaving a trace. At the thought of this, sweat oozes from my forehead and tears trickle down my cheeks.3）Days Gone By (translated by Zhang Mengjing)When the swallows have gone, there is still time to return; when the poplar and willow trees have become withered, there is still time to see green; when the peach flowers have already faded, there is still time to blossom. But please tell me, the genius, why then have my days gone and never returned? If some people have stolen them, then who are they? And where are they hidden? If they have escaped by themselves, then where are they now?I don't know how many days I have been given, but the in my hands are becoming numbered. Counting silently, eight thousand days have slipped by. Just like water drops a pinpoint dripping slowly into the vast ocean, my days been dripping into the river of time, quietly and invisibly. I can’t help dripping with sweat and weeping many tears.注：格式：5号宋体（英语部分用times new roman），题目用黑体。
《英汉对比研究》笔记
《英汉对比研究》笔记《英汉对比研究》笔记综合语与分析语聚集与流散形合与意合繁复与简短物称与人称被动与主动静态与动态抽象与具体间接与直接替换与重复第一章综合语与分析语综合语为“运用形态变化来表达语法关系”，如拉丁语、德语及古英语。
分析语为“用词序及虚词来表达语法关系”，如汉语。
英语为“综合-分析语”，表现为1.形态变化；2.固定的词序及丰富的虚词；英语为拼音文字，有语调（intonation）；汉字为形声字，有声调（tone）表达语法意义的三大手段：形态变化、词序和虚词。
（一）形态变化，即词的形式变化。
1.构词形态，词缀变化（affixation）,包括前缀（prefix）和后缀（suffix）。
英语有，汉语没有，所以英汉互译时，要改变词性、转换词类。
2.构形形态，即词形变化，包括人称代词，名词单复数和时态。
New factories are being built all over the country.全国到处都在兴建新工厂。
（二）词序形态变化越多的语言，词序越灵活，反之亦然。
英语词序比汉语灵活的一个表现就是英语中的倒装句。
原因就是“形态变化”和“连接词”；而中文缺乏形态变化，少用或不用连接词，词序较固定。
形态变化规则要求句中词语之间保持语法关系一致，只要词语之间前后呼应，就容易灵活安排；汉语无这种一致的关系，只能按照表意的需要排序词序。
a)He had to quit the position and went in exile, having beendeprived of his power.他被剥夺了权力之后，只好离职，流落他乡。
b)a very important questiona question of great importance一个很重要的问题c)at an unprecedented speedat a speed unprecedented以空前的速度d)There is no inconsistence in what he said.There is nothing inconsistent in what he said.他说的话并没有前后矛盾之处。
英汉语言文化比较期末重点
《英汉语言文化比较》讲义第1讲语言与文化概述1.The relationship between language and culture.Language and culture are inseparably intertwined.(1) Language is a part of culture.(2) Language is a manifestation of culture. (Culture manifests itself both in patterns of language and thought, and in forms of activity and behavior.)(3) Language is the stimulus of culture (A flourished language can promote the development of culture.)2.English speakers are good at abstract thinking while the Chinese are aptto think in terms of images.3.English speakers prefer analytical thinking while the Chinese prefercomprehensive thinking.4.English speakers think more in a linear way while the Chinese think moreor less in a curving way.5.According to Whorf hypothesis, “The language that an individual speaksfacilitates particular ways of thinking.”第2讲英汉语发展简史11.Based on morphological classification (形态分类法), English belongs toinflected language (屈折语), while Chinese belongs to isolating language (孤立语).2.Based on structural classification (结构分类法), both English and Chinesebelong to analytic language (分析语).3.Based on genetic classification (谱系分类法), English belongs toIndo-European Language Family, and Chinese belongs to Sino-Tibetan Language Family.4.English is a West Germanic (西日耳曼语支) language that originated fromthe Anglo-Frisian dialects brought to Britain by Germanic invaders.5.English is a phoneme language (表音文字) and Chinese is an ideographiclanguage (表意文字).6.The first people in England about whose language we have definiteknowledge are the Celts.7.After the Norman Conquest, English entered the period of Middle English.8.The period from 450 to 1150 is known as Old English. From 1150 to 1500the language is known as Middle English. The language since 1500 is called Modern English (1500-1700, early Modern English, 1700 until now, later Modern English).9.The main differences between Chinese words and English words: a)Letters in English are like strokes in Chinese. b) Morphemes in English are like radicals in Chinese. c) Chinese associative compounds (会意字) are like English compound words.第3讲英汉语发展简史21.Chinese and most related languages share features that make them unlikemost Western languages: They are monosyllabic, have even less inflection than English, and are tonal.2.In Chinese, a syllabic structure has three essential components: initials(声母), finals (韵母), and tones (声调). Chinese pinyin system has 21 initial consonants, 36 final vowels and 4 tones.3.According to Xu Shen’s (许慎) research, Chinese characters can be dividedinto six groups: 1) Pictographs (≈4%) 象形; 2) Ideographs (≈1%) 指事; 3) Logical Aggregates (≈13%) 会意; 4) Phonetic Complexes (≈82%) 形声; 5) Associative Transformations (a small portion) 转注; 6) Borrowings (a small portion) 假借.第4讲英汉语构词法1.Word formation in English:1)Compounding (合成法): T wo or more words are joined together toform a new word. (For example: home + work →homework)2)Prefixation (前缀法): Prefixation is the formation of new words byadding prefixes to stems. Prefixes do not generally change the word-class of the stem but only modify its meaning. (For example:Pejorative prefixes (贬义前缀): mal-, pseudo-, mis-, ill-).3)Suffixation (后缀法): Suffixation is the formation of new words byadding suffixes to stems. Unlike prefixes which primarily change the meaning of the stem, the primary function of suffixes is to change the grammatical function of stems.4)Conversion (转化法): Conversion is a word-formation whereby a wordof a certain word-class is shifted into a word of another without the addition of an affix. It is also called zero derivation (零位派生). (For example: 1) Problems snowballed by the hour. 2) Sandwich the two bread halves together and cut into 1-inch-wide slices.)5)Shortening (缩略法)6)Blending (拼缀法): Blending is a process of word-formation in which anew word is formed by combining parts of two words. The result of such a process is called a blend. Blending is a process of both compounding and abbreviation. For example, smog (smoke＋fog).7)Back-formation (逆成法): a process of word-formation by which aword is created by the deletion of a supposed suffix. It is also known as a reverse derivation.8)Eponyms9)T oponyms2.Word formation in Chinese:1)The overwhelming majority of the Old-Chinese morphemes aremono-syllabic.2)61% of the 3,000 most commonly used Chinese words are disyllabic.3)Chinese prefixes mostly involve morphemes such as 老, 小, 第, and初.4)Some so-called Chinese suffixes are added as a way of nominalization,like 度, 性, etc.第5讲英汉词语的文化涵比较11.In Chinese, the word xīn (心) that primarily denotes the heart organ mayalso refer to the “organ for thinking”and the “seat of thought and emotions”.2.In contrast, according to the Western view, heart is seen as the center ofemotions/feelings and the head (the locus of the brain with which the mind is associated) as the center of thought.3.Based on the metaphor “heart as a physical entity”, the following wordsare formed in Chinese: 心房, 心窝, 心田, 心地, and 心弦.4.Research proves that if a language only has two color words, they must beblack and white; if the language has the third color word, it must be red;if it has the fourth one, it must be yellow or green.第6讲英汉词语的文化涵比较21.Dog has a negative connotation in “a dog in the manger”.2.Traditionally, people have talked about “fixed expressions”, stressing thefixedness of these expressions, but corpus studies have shown that many of the phrases can actually be varied.3.An idiom is a fixed or semi-fixed expression whose meaning cannot bededuced from its parts. But very few idioms are 100% fixed.第7讲英语抽象名词和汉语具体名词1.The plural forms of abstract English nouns often have the function ofconcretization, for example, ratings, attractions and breakdowns.第8讲形合与意合1.Hypotaxis (形合): The dependent or subordinate relationship of clauseswith connectives. For example: It was cold because the snows came.2.Parataxis (意合): The arranging of clauses or phrases without connectivesshowing the relations between them. For example: It was cold; the snows came.第9讲英汉句法比较1. A topic-prominent language is a language that organizes its syntax toemphasize the topic–comment structure of the sentence. Chinese is considered to be a topic-prominent language, where the topic of the sentence takes precedence in the sentence.2. A subject-prominent language (e.g. English) is a language in which thegrammatical units of subject and predicate (S V) are basic to thestructure of sentences and in which sentences usually have subject-predicate structure.第10讲英语被动句和汉语主动句1.English uses far more passive sentences than Chinese./ Passive voicesentences are more common in English than in Chinese.2.Many sentences in English have inanimate/impersonal subjects (无灵主语),while Chinese use this pattern less frequently. For example, “The thick carpet on the corridor killed the sound of my footsteps.”第11讲语篇对比11.According to Halliday and Hasan, collocation is “cohesion that is achievedthrough the association of lexical items that regularly co-occur”. The association is achieved when the lexical items have a tendency to appear in similar lexical environments or when they are related lexicosemantically.2.a) This is a fine hall you have here. I’m proud to be lecturing in it.(Reference)b) This is a fine hall you have here. I’ve never lectured in a finer one.(Substitution)c) This is a fine hall you have here. I’ve never lectured in a finer. (Ellipsis)第12讲语篇对比21.The normal pattern to develop an English paragraph: topic sentence (mainpoint/ central thought) – supporting details.第13讲隐喻、文化和世界观1.Sports metaphors are used by all Americans, regardless of class,professions, race, age or gender. The reasons are as follows:1)Most Americans believe competition to be one quality that has madeAmerica great.2)“Being the best” American mentality has often turned everyday lifeinto a sport game. People compete in almost everything.3)American schools are another contributing factor to the Americansports mania. In many schools, athletics outweighs all other programsin terms of money and attention received.4)As a country, from the national to the local level, Americans go out oftheir way to honor athletes.2.The literal use of 吃includes 吃面, 吃饭. (not吃惊, 吃香, 吃官司, 吃败仗). The literal use of 吃饭includes 吃冷饭. (not 吃干饭, 吃闲饭, 吃软饭)第14讲基于语料库的英汉语比较与翻译考察1.Corpus (pl. corpora or corpuses): a collection of text, now usually inmachine-readable form and compiled to be representative of a particular kind of language and often provided with some kind of annotation.2.Parallel corpus is most useful for translation studies.第15讲个人主义与集体主义1.Highly individualistic cultures include the U.S., Australia, Great Britain,Canada, the Netherlands, New Zealand, and Italy. Some examples of collectivist cultures include India, Japan and China.Short Answer Questions:1.What are the different types of transliterations (音译)? Give theChinese borrowings from English as examples.Answer: The first type is phonetic loans: 摩登、咖啡、咖喱、巧克力、克隆。

中外翻译理论期末考试点
中外翻译理论考点△重点1.John Fryer(傅兰雅)(British)Translates more practical aspects of Euro-American science and technology into late imperial China.(Editor of The Chinese Scientific Magazine《格致汇编》)Mirroring the Origins of Chemistry《化学鉴原》Chemical Analyse《化学考质》An Introduction to Chemistry《化学初阶》Methods of translating(to establish a systematic nomenclature based on 3 linguistic choices):（1）Using existing nomenclature（系统命名法） from native works on the arts and science;（2）Coining new terms by creating a new character, inventing an descriptive term, or phoneticizing a Western term according to the Mandarin dialect;（3）Constructing a general vocabulary list of terms and proper names.-Why Xu Shou and John Fryer’s translated names for the elements are still in use? -Because their method of translation was quite rational and not simply.2.Lin Shu——famous for introducing the Western literary works into ChineseBorn in Fujian Province in 1852 and received the provincial graduate（举人）The most influential works:La Dame Aux Camelias《巴黎茶花女遗事》；Oliver Twist《贼史》Uncle Tom’s Cabin《黑奴吁天录》The first person to bring many of the important works of Western literature to the attention to the Chinese for the first time and Chinese began to appreciate the value of Western fiction.Translation motives:（1）to cultivate patriotism: his translation intentions were to save the nation from subjugation and ensure its survival;（2）To educate the public: he hopes that the Chinese people could learn the pioneering spirit from reading the translation of the novel.Translation Methods:（1）Omission(considering the Chinese culture and the Chinese reader’s reception): delete some contents for the sake of Chinese literary norms and Chinese reader’staste;（2）Addition(considering reader’s expectation): to publish and improve the original and also to help the readers to understand the original and the Western tradition, making the translation more interesting and attractive and appealing; （3）Alteration(considering the Chinese reader’s aesthetic tendencies): due to the social and cultural differences between the source and target languages, he made some compensation or replacement;（4）Adaptation(considering the feudal Chinese ethics)Criticism of his Translations:(1)the choice of the source text(2)Mistranslation and Incorrect OmissionContributions of his Translation:(1)to reconsider the value of fiction as a genre(2)To change people’s disregard of foreign literature(3)To exert a tremendous influence on later generation3.Fu LeiSome of his translations:Eugenie Grandet《欧也妮·葛朗台》Le Pere Goriot《高老头》Jean Christophe 《约翰·克里斯多夫》Translation Ideas:(1)Spiritual Resemblance Theory: In terms of effect, translation should be the same as copying painting, for what is searched for is spiritual similarity rather than formal similarity; Translation would be easy if breaking the structure, and characteristics of the native language could convey the features of the foreign language and obtain the original spirit; The meaning and spirit of the original, the fluency and integrity of the translation could be combined in one.(2)Translating as a holy career: Those who are not poets should not translate poetry, for what they produce will not only be unpoetic and it will not be like prose either; Measures of our adaptability: our enthusiasm about the original work since emotional interest affects understanding and our artistic insight.Whatever the style of the original, it will always be unified and coherent.(3)Language of translation: paying too much attention to grammar, syntax and style is definitely not conductive to the creation of great works.He can hardly achieve translating it into Chinese to convey the tone of the original text and reproducing the mood and atmosphere in the translation.But it can serve as an important link between what goes before and what comes after in the original text.4.Qian Zhongshu（Fortess Besieged）Works of translation: On the Art of Poetry《谈艺录》；The Pipe-Awl Chapters《管锥编》Translation Ideals:Realm of transformation（化境）：describes what an ideal translation is like, differentiates the good translation from the bad, and contains hidden echoes of similar terminology from traditional Chinese poetics and art criticism.(1)The highest standard in literary translation is “化”, transforming a work from the language of one country into that of another, this could be done without betraying ant evidence of artifice by virtue of divergences in language and speech habits, besides, preserving intact the flavor of the original.(2) a translation should cleave to the original with such fidelity that it would not read like a translation, for a literary work in its own language will never read as though it has been through a process of translation.（与奈达的动态对等理论相似）(3)Misrepresentation：讹.The words transmit and entice explain how translation functions in cultural interchange; it acts as a middleman, a liaison as though playing the role of matchmaker and bringing about a “literary romance”between nations.(4)Translation was to save people the trouble of learning foreign languages and reading the original works,but now it entices the readers into doing the very thing. It arouses the reader’s curiosity, causing them to yearn for the original.(5)The Chinese character for “translation”译has etymological and associative connections with the characters for “seduction”诱，“error”讹，“mediator”媒 and “transformation”化(6)Sublimity，化: changing the form and retaining the content and style or spirit at the same time; a translation should be both smooth and idiomatic in the target language; should be faithful to the original in content or spirit and style;is an all but unrealizable ideal.5.JakobsonHe experimented with “supraconscious”（超意识的）poems, the co-founder of both the Moscow Linguistic Circle and the Prague Linguistic Circle.His essay “On Linguistic Aspects of Translation” extends the significance of translation to include intralingual and intersemiotic translation.His emphasis on the functional role of linguistic elements in the translated text had a positive effect on the work of poetry translators3 kinds of translation are to be differently labeled:(1)Intralingual translation or rewording is an interpretation of verbal signs by means of other signs of the same language;(2)Interlingual translation or translation proper is an interpretation of verbal signs by means of some other language;(3)Intersemiotic translation or transmutation is an interpretation of verbal signsby means of signs of nonverbal signs systems.Equivalence in difference is the cardinal problem of language and the pivotal concern of linguistics.（差异对等是语言的基本问题，也是语言学的核心问题）6.CatfordFundamental Problems in PhoneticsTranslation Ideals:(1)The definition of translations: translation is the replacement of textual material in one language (SL)by equivalent textual material in another language(TL).(2)The general types of translationCatford saw language as a set of systems operating at different levels, and described broad translation types using three sets of criteria:A.in terms of the extent of translation, he distinguished between full translationB.In terms of the levels of language involved in translation, a distinction is drawn between total translation and restricted translation(phonological translation and graphological translation)C.In terms of the grammatical or phonological rank at which translation equivalence is established, he distinguished between rank-bound translation and unbounded translation(3)Formal correspondence and textual equivalenceA formal correspondence is “any TL category(units, class, element of structure, etc); a textual equivalent is “any TL text or portion of text which is observed on a particular occasion.In his own words, translation shifts are thus “departures from formal correspondence in the process of going from the SL to the TL.”:1) A level shift would be sth. That is expressed by grammar in one language and lexis in another;2)Category shiftsa.structural shiftsb.Class shiftsc.Unit shifts or rank shifts: rank here refers to the hierarchical linguistic units of sentence, clause, group, word and morpheme.d.Intra-system shifts(4)The limits of translatability(可译性)It fails where the difficulty is linguistic and those where it is cultural(节日，特殊意象)7.Peter Newmark(Englishman)One of the main figures in the founding of translation studies in English-speaking world.Communicative translation and semantic translation(交际翻译和语义翻译)——main contribution to general translation theory Communicative translation:1)responds to the representational and vocative functions;2)Is likely to be smoother, simpler, clearer, more direct, more conventional, conforming to a particular register of language, tending to undertranslate.3)In some sense, communicative translation, by adapting and making the thought and cultural content of the original more accessible to the reader, gives semantic translation another dimension.4)The transition to communicative translation is basically makes the text smoother, lighter, more idiomatic and easier to read.5)“Standardized English”must be translated communicatively, whether a standardized equivalent exists or not, even if it appears in a novel or a quotation, unless the term is used descriptively rather than operatively in the original text.Semantic translation:1)attempts to recreate the precise flavor and tone of the original;2)Tends to be more complex, more awkward, more detailed, more concentrated, and pursues the thought-process rather than the intention of the transmitter to overtranslate, to be more specific than the original3)the transition to semantic translation normally reduces the unit of translation, and brings the text closer to the figurative and formal elements of the original.wrence Venuti(a distinguished American translation theorist, historian and translator) Translation Ideals:(1)Invisibility of the translator（译者的不可见性）The Translator’s Invisibility: A History of TranslationThe absence of any linguistic or stylistic peculiarities makes it reflects the foreign writer’s personality or intention or the essential meaning of the foreign text—the appearance, that the translation is not in fact a translation, but the “original.”The more fluent the translation, the more invisible the translator, and, presumably, the more visible the writer or the foreign text.(2)Foreignizing translation strategy（异化翻译策略）Venuti defined translation as a process by which the chain of signifiers（意符，能指） that constitutes the source-language text is replaced by a chain of signifiers in the target language which the translator provides on the strength of an interpretation.Because meaning is an effect of relations and differences among signifiers along a potentially endless chain(polysemous, intertextual, subject to infinite linkages) “resistancy”（异化、反翻译）Resistancy seeks to free the readers of the translation, as well as the translator, from the cultural constraints that ordinarily govern their reading and writing and threaten to overpower and domesticate the foreign text, annihilating（消灭） its foreignness. Resistance assumes an ideology of autonomy（自主性的意识形态）, locating the alien（异己） in a cultural other, pursuing cultural diversity, foregrounding（突出） the linguistic and cultural differences of the source-language text（源语文本） and transforming the hierarchy of cultural values（文化价值层次）in the target languages.The translation of Buddhist scriptures:The initial period:An Shigao; Zhi Qian(Han Dynasty)The period of development:Dao’an (East Jin Dynasty); Kumarajiva（鸠摩罗什）The period of prosperity:Xuanzang(Tang Dynasty)Translation of western science(16—18AD,Ming Dynasty): Matteo Ricci（利玛窦）Italian Jesuit priest, one of the founding of the Jesuit ChinaMission.The first person to translate the Confucian classics into awestern language,Latin with assistance from the scholarXu Guangqi. They translated Euclid’s The Elements（几何原本）into Chinese.Xu Guangqi: he had coin so many new terms and to select carefully the accurateexpressions of mathematical concepts and contexts fromthe wide vocabulary of Chinese.Three Great Pillars of Chinese Catholicism（中国天主教的三大支柱）：Matteo Ricci，Xu Guangqi，and Yang Tingyun（Summary of WesternLearning《西学凡》；On Geography《识方外纪》）. Translations during Ming Dynasty had 2 distinguished characteristics:(1)the subject of translation shifted from Buddhist scriptures to scientific and technological knowledge;(2)Translators in this period of time were mainly scientists and government officials who were erudite scholars, and the Western missionaries who brought Western knowledge to China.The translation of science in the Late Qing Dynasty:Robert Morrison, Daniel Jerome,Benjamin Hobson, James Legge,Alexander Wylie. John Fryer.Yan Fu1.Famous for introducing Western thoughts, including Darwin’s idea of “natural selection” into China during the late 19th century.2.His heart was indeed not in technical translation but in the transmission of the political ideas which he had discovered in the West so he translated a number of key works of modern Western thought:1)Evolution and Ethics and Other Essays （天演论——赫胥黎）2）The Study of Sociology（群学肄言——斯宾塞）3）The Wealth of Nations（原富——亚当斯密）4）On Liberty（群己权界论——论自由，斯图亚特）Translation Theory: faithfulness, comprehensibility, elegance（信达雅）Hu ShiHu originally emphasized 8 guidelines that all Chinese writers should take to heart in writing:1)Writing with substance（要言之有物）2)Do not imitate the ancients3)Respect grammar4)Reject melancholy（不要无病呻吟）5)Eliminate old cliches（杜绝陈词滥调）6)Do not use allusions（典故）7)Do not use couplets or parallelism（对偶骈文）8)Do not avoid popular expressions（俗话俗字）or forms of characters Translation Ideals:(1)Choosing those masterpieces of famous writers only;(2)Adopting a vernacular prose style in the translation of those dramas of a verse style. He adopted a unity of faithfulness and expressiveness1) a translator should be responsible for the author to keep the spirit of the original and secondly be responsible for the readers and make his version intelligible.2)The literary works that were hard to understand could never succeed in educating people, and thus clearness in meaning is of primary importance in literary translation.Practice: Over the Roofs《关不住了》；Book of Experiments《尝试集》Lu Xun’s translation ideals:he insisted that “he would rather be faithful to the original than be fluent to the translation(宁信而不顺)”, he stressed that it was a special class of readers that his translations were intended for the proletariat literary critics who had special class interests to champion. Extreme faithfulness to the original was a way ensuring that “true” Marxist literary thought be presented to those who wanted the facts as they were.He said “The Chinese language is just too imprecise, and to this ailment, I believe we have to suffer some more pain and embody our thought in wayward syntactical structures——ancient, dialectal, as well as foreign so that one day these structures can become our own.”Practice: From the Earth to the Moon in 97hours 12 minutes.Zhou ZuorenTranslation ideals: prefers straightforward translation, that is : it should convey the original meaning and preserve the original style and express the original meaning as far as our Chinese language can do. In other words, it is faithfulness and expressiveness,Practice: Ali Baba《侠女奴》Liang ShiqiuTranslation ideals：having a book translated is to make it comprehensible, mistranslation is indeed unacceptable. Even though partialmistranslations are mistakes that may really be endlessly harmful,you have nevertheless enjoyed reading them. It would not do anyharm to modify the syntax somewhat and to make it peremptory sothat the text becomes intelligible to the reader because it’s nopleasure to grind through a text while stiff translation can notpreserve the original tone of terseness and conscious.Dead translation is very different, which is bound to be dead frombeginning to end and makes no difference whether it is read or not,also,dead translation might as well involve distorted translation. Major works: Peter Pan《彼得潘》，Wuthering Heights《咆哮山庄》；Meditation《沉思录》Lin YutangWorks of translation:The Chinese Puzzle《国民革命外纪》Women and Knowledge《女子与知识》Pygmalion《卖花女》《庄子》Chuangtse《浮生六记》Six Chapters of a Floating LifeTranslation Theory:On Translation《论翻译》：he pointed out that “translation is an art”.On Poetry Translation《论译诗》He pointed out three “responsibility”and explained the implication.He also proposed three criteria for translation: faithfulness, fluency, and beauty （忠实、通顺和美）He assumed four types of translation concerning the degree of faithfulness: literal, dead, free, and random translation.Words of each language have the beauty of sound,meaning,spirit, form, literary style and literary form.Zhu ShenghaoZhu’s work made up the core of the mainland-Chinese version of The Complete Works of Shakespeare, and the first volume is made up of 9 comedies while the second consists of 8 tragedies.Translation Ideals:(can be revealed from his self-preface of The Complete Plays of Shakespeare.) The preface consists of five paragraphs:(1)the significance of Shakespeare;(2)The situation of Shakespeare translation in China(3)His experience of translating Shakespeare and hardship involved in this process(4)His method of translating Shakespeare: to preserve the original spirit as far as possible; and if not, he made his best to put the original meaning into clear and readable Chinese. He strongly objected was word-to-word stiff translation. After finishing a paragraph, he would pretend to be a reader or a performer.Yang XianyiAccomplishment of translation: A Dream of Red Mansion, Li SaoHe acknowledged his wife’s significance in their translation——Collaborationtranslation.Translation Ideals:(1)Faithfulness: a translation should not be far from the original but not word-to-word translation.(2)Culture and translation: Translation is more than language switching. What more important is the culture behind the words.(3)Poetry translation with or without rhyme: Keeping the rhyme is secondary to keeping the meaning and it is impossible to keep everything in translation because of the differences in the two cultures.Yu GuangzhongHis works often focused upon four fundamental aspects of literature:poetry, prose, translation and commentary.Works: The Old Man and the Sea,Anthology of Modern English and American Poetry.Translation Ideals:1)The fundamental similarities and differences between translation and creative writing: if a writer also translate, his translation style will inevitably be affected by his own creative writing style, conversely, his own writing style will not remain unaffected.2)Translation is a ‘necessary evil’, a substitute we rely on for lack of something better. Not even a good translation can convey the true meaning of the original. In case of bad translations, besides distorting the original meaning, they often have a pernicious impact on indigenous writing styles.Theodore Savory （文艺学派）The Language of Science; Words of ScienceDifficulties in his search for the equivalent of a word:(1)Illusory Correspondence: a word often has several meanings and the translator should take the context into consideration when choosing an appropriate word in the target language.(2)Gaps in languages which cannot be filled in translating: because a word may be quite familiar in one language but there is no equivalent one in another. All kinds of writings where the two nations whose languages are concerned may have different customs, different games and amusements and different degrees of technical development.(3)Idioms, idiomatic phrases and provisional expressions:he suggested that the translator should ask himself 3questions:(a)what does the author say?(b)What does he mean?(c)How does he say it?A good translator’s knowledge of the translated language must be wide and it must also be critically applied so that no detail is likely to be missed. Categories of translation:(1)perfect translation:refers to the translation of all purely informative statements such as are encountered by the traveler or used by the advertiser.(2)Adequate translation:matter is more important than manner（内容比形式更重要）(3)Composite translation：includes the translation of prose into prose, of poetry into prose and of poetry into poetry(4)Translation of learned, scientific, technical and practical matter.The principles of translation:made solely because of the intrinsic importance of the original work, which is strictly confined to the practical business of living; It is almost a necessity that the translator shall have a reasonable knowledge of the science or the technique about which the original was written.The Principle of Translation:(1) A translation must give the words of the original.(2)~must give the ideas of the original(3)~should read like an original work(4)~should read like a translation(5)~should reflect the style of the original(6)~should possess the style of the translator(7)~should read as a contemporary of the original(8)~should read as a contemporary of the translator(9)~may add to or omit from the original(10)~may never add or to omit from the original(11)~of verse should be in prose(12)~of verse should be in verse.We need to choose different words in different contexts.Eugene Nida’s Translation TheoryMain Translation Ideas(1)Two basic orientations in translating:formal and dynamic equivalence.1)D ynamic-equivalence attempts to convey the thought expressed in a source text ;2)F ormal-equivalence attempts to render the text word-for-word.(2)Principles governing a translation oriented toward formal equivalence:1)g rammatical units;2)C onsistency in word usage;3)M eaning in terms of the source context;(3)Principles governing a translation oriented toward dynamic equivalence（动态对等）: the most notable contribution; elaborated in “Principles of Correspondence”and it stands to reason that there can be no absolute correspondence between two languages. It’s the closest natural equivalent to the source-language message.But here are some limitations:1)special literary form,2)semantically exocentric expressions（语义外向）,3)intraorganismic meaning.(4)Principles governing a translation oriented toward functional equivalence.Terms Explanation1.Five Losses:Dao’an(1)Sanskrit and Chinese are in reversing word order in sentence structure, as far as grammar is concerned.(2)Sanskrit prefers to be simple and straight forward, while Chinese prefers to be complex, polished in writing.(3)Sanskrit tends to be repetitive for important points while Chinese does not.(4)Sanskrit always contains sentences within sentences while Chinese does not.(5)Sanskrit writing is repetitive in subsequent passage, while the repetitiongs are deleted in Chinese translations.2.Five Untranslatables:Xuanzangsecrets,polysemy,none in china,deference to the past,to inspire respect and righteousness:Prajna instead of “wisdom.”3.信达雅（严复）Translation involves three requirements difficult to fulfill:1)Faithfulness2)Comprehensibility:prime importance3)EleganceFaithfulness is difficult enough to attain but a translation that is faithful but not comprehensible is no translation at prehensibility is therefore of prime importance.4.直译（literal translation）Straightforward translation/direct translationFormal correspondenceWorld-to-word translation（逐字译）Stiff translation（硬译）（Lu Xun）5.意译(free translation)Sense-for-sense translation/sense translationSemantic correspondenceFree translation（自由译）Distorted translation（歪译）（Lin Shu）6.Dead transportation: not only putting every word and every sentence in the same order as the original, but also not allowing the addition of a single word or even the change of the same order of any words.7. Three Responsibilities(a)The translator should have a complete understanding of the language and contents of the source text.(b)The translator should have a good command of Chinese so that he can produce a smooth and expressive version.(c)The translator should be trained properly to hold proper opinions on the standards and techniques of translation.9.Three Criteria1)Faithfulness: the first responsibility for the translator to fulfill but it doesn’t mean a word-to-word translation. A faithful version will not only convey the meaning of the source text but also spirit of the words and their implications.It is not possible to achieve absolute faithfulness.2)Fluency: a fluent translation should be based on sentence-to-sentence translation rather than word-for-word translation.3)Beauty: translation is an art and an ideal translator should make translationa fine art. So when we translate the Western literary text such as poetry and fiction into Chinese, we have to take its aesthetic value into consideration.。

英汉对比复习资料
英汉对比复习资料英汉对比复习资料一．综合语与分析语1.运用形态变化来表达语法关系的语言属于综合语。
(拉丁语、德语、、希腊语（p.29）、古英语。
2.不用形态变化而用语序及虚词来表达语法关系的语言属于分析语，如汉语。
3.综合-分析语：现代英语运用遗留下来的形态变化形式、相对固定的词序及丰富的虚词来表达语法关系，因此属综合-分析语4.表达语法意义的三大手段：形态变化、词序、虚词5.（一）、英语有形态变化，汉语没有严格意义的形态变化英语的动词、助动词、情态动词常常结合起来，运用其形态变化，表示动词的时态、语态和语气。
汉语没有这类变化，有时虽可借助一些半独立的词语来表示但多数是隐含在句中或上下文里的，严格地讲，汉语没有形态变化（二）、英语词序比较灵活，汉语词序相对固定。
形态变化与词序的关系：形态变化越多的语言，词序越灵活，反之亦然英汉句子的主要成分一般排列顺序：主-谓-宾（表）SV；SVO；SVP；SV oO; SVOC英语状定主定-状谓-定宾定状（表）汉语定主-状谓-定宾（表）（三）、英汉都有大量的虚词，但各有特点英语的虚词：冠词、介词、助动词、并列连接词、从属连接词等。
汉语的虚词：介词、助词、连词等。
英汉虚词均与实词相对而言，在句中主要起辅助和连接等作用6.英语的语音表意手段主要是语调（intonation）和重音汉语的语音表意还有其他手段，如语调、重读与轻读。
二．刚性与柔性1.英语句型结构的刚性特征（聚集型），汉语句型结构的柔性特征（流散型）2.英语有综合语的特点，受形态约束，其语法具有刚性，没有弹性。
汉语是分析语，不受形态约束，其语法具柔性，富于弹性3.（1）英语基本句型：英语的刚性体现在句子有严谨的主谓结构。
即：名词性短语（NP）+ 动词性短语（VP）。
主语+ 谓语尽管英语句子错综复杂，千变万化，但其主谓结构可以归结为五种基本句型：SV, SVP, SVO, SVoO, SVOC（2）基本句型的扩展手段:增加修饰语、扩展基本句型的成分、基本句型的组合、基本句型的省略、倒装4.英语聚集型句式的成因：（1）聚集句子的手段众多（2）句子成分之间或词语之间必须在人称、数、性和意义等方面保持协调一致的关系5.汉语不受形态约束，无“主谓一致”之刚性要求，具有多样性、复杂性、灵活性等柔性特点，因而句式呈“流散型”。
英汉对比复习试题
1.共时研究和历时研究在英汉对比研究中的作用共时与历时是索绪尔语言学理论中的两个概念，他从符号的任意性出发，得出要区分语言的共时研究和历时研究，前者指研究在某一特定状态中的语言系统，不考虑时间因素；后者指研究语言的历史演变。
英汉对比语言学用的主要是共时的方法，注意其相似点，但更注意不似点，包括此有彼无、此多彼少，尤其是貌同实异的地方，如果可能，则尽量列举，以减少学习和翻译中的错误。
这种对比既可以是单向的，也可使是双向的。
前者以一种语言为参照语，另一种语言为对象语。
研究参照语的某种范畴、某种形式、某种意义等在对象语中如何表达，有何等价物；后者以某种范畴为基点，不分参照语和对象语，两种语言平行对比。
当然，共时对比并不排斥历时对比，因为任何语言从根本上说是不断演变的。
比如，有时在共时研究中为了说明某些问题会追溯到某一语言的历史演变。
2.汉英元音系统的对比1.单元音(1)英语单元音有12 个, 汉语有6 个。
英语单元音数量是汉语的一倍, 这说明英语单元音的音位区划分得更细。
汉语的单元音数量少, 这使得每个单元音承担的功能更多, 包括的音位变体就更多, 分布也更广, 因此代表的区域也就更大。
如英语有3 个央元音, 而汉语只有一个e , 但它却包括5 个变体:/e/měi (美)、/ε/y uē (约)、/ /wēn (温)、/ /gē(哥)、/ /wēng (翁)。
汉语单元音各个变体之间的差异较之于英语也更大。
(2)英语单元音具有汉语单元音所没有的一些区别性特征, 如音长和松紧。
一些单元音的长度可以造成意义的区别, 如/it/ (它)、/i t/(吃)、/ful/(满的)、/fu l/ (傻瓜)、/n t/ (不)、/n t/ (无,零)。
英语在发长元音时, 口腔肌肉紧张,音质平缓;发短元音时, 口腔肌肉松弛。
汉语的单元音不区别音长, 其长度一般介于英语长元音和短元音之间。
(3)汉语与英语单元音系统有许多类似的音,如，英语的[i:] 和汉语的[i]如闭口、非圆唇前元音, 半开半闭、非圆唇中元音, 闭口、圆唇后元音, 半闭圆唇后元音。

上海海事大学外应英汉对比与翻译期末考试知识要点知识点：1.Contrastive Linguistics is a branch of linguistics that aims at a systematic synchronic description of two (or more) languages in order to determine the similarities and differences between them and to find out the implications of such similarities and differences for language-related activities, such as foreign language teaching, interlingual translation, the compilation of bilingual dictionaries, the study of a particular language, the study of language typology, and the study of language universals.2. Classification of contrastive linguisticsTheoretical vs. Applied contrastive linguistics ← theoretical purposes or for practical purposesMicro-contrastive vs. Macro-contrastive ← linguistics the study object and scopeMicro-contrastive : contrastive studies between languages on the formal/structural level, including phonological contrastive studies, lexical contrastive studies, and grammatical contrastive studies.Macro-contrastive: deals with how people speaking different languages are different or similar in their way of forming a text, how they are different or similar in their use of language as a tool of communication, and how different cultures may affect their use of language, and so on.3. Terium Comparationis, TC（第三对比项/共同对比基础/中间对比项）the common point of departure or reference4. Translation equivalence ：（翻译对等项）formal, semantical, pragmatical equivalent4.1 If we are comparing systems and/or structures of linguistic items, we normally take data items that have semantic equivalence and which are as formally close to each other as possible:We must take action before it is too late.我们必须在为时太晚之前采取行动。
英汉语言对比笔记
英汉对比研究（连淑能）Contrastive Studies of English and ChineseChapter 1 综合语与分析语( Syntactic vs. Analytic)1.综合语的特征是运用形态变化来表达语法关系。
A synthetic language is “characterized by frequent and systematic use of inflected forms to express grammatical relationships”。
如拉丁语，德语，古英语。
(in word level)2.分析语的特征是不用形态变化而用语序及虚词来表达语法关系。
An analytic language is “characterized by a relatively frequent use of functional words,auxiliary verbs,and changes in word order to express syntactic relations,rather than of inflected forms”。
如汉语。
Chinese is an isolating/analytic language. (in sentence level)3.Modern English is a syntactic-analytic language.(综合-分析语）English has got rid of most of its inflections, and expresses grammatical relations by devices like prepositions and auxiliary verbs and by the order of its words.4.实词：content words/full words/notion words虚词：structural words/form words/functional words5.形态变化（inflection）、语序（word order）、和虚词（function words）是表达语法关系的三大手段，三者之间有着密切的关系。
