春节,又称农历新年,它是中国最重大的传统节 日。时间通常在一月底,二月初,象征着一年辛 劳后,冬春之交的休息和放松,也象征了喜庆。 The Spring Festival, also known as the Lunar New Year, is the greatest traditional festival. It is usually a time between late January or early February, which means rest and relaxation between winter and spring after a year’s toil, and means celebration as well.
春节前,人们打扫屋子、在大门上贴大红对联、 放鞭炮。据传说,这样做是为了驱赶一个叫“年 ”的魔鬼。除夕之夜,一大家子定会在一起会餐 ,最受欢迎的主食是饺子,人们认为它能带来好 运吉祥。 Before the Spring Festival, people clean their houses, put red couplets on their gates, and set off firecrackers, according to fairy tales, for driving a demon named Nian away. On the eve of the Spring Festival, a gettogether banquet is a must, and the most popular food is Jiaozi, which is supposed to bring good fortune.

汉译英笔记
1.例子:现在必须采取措施来保护环境(表目的)分析:找主语->无主语,也就是无主句。
无主语:对应英文三种句型:形式主语、there be 句型、被动句型。
形式主语:It is necessary ['nesəs(ə)rɪ] /essential [ɪ'senʃ(ə)l] / imperative /ɪm'perətɪv/to take/ adopt measures to protect the environment.(不定式表目的)essential, imperative。
能用高级词汇就用高级词汇。
adopt: 有两个意思,采取采纳;收养;there be 句型There is necessity [nə'sɛsəti] to adopt measures to protect the environment.被动句型(找被动句型的主语-:措施)Measures should be adopted (taken) to protect the environment.特殊句型:是到做某事的时候了It is time to do sth.... 是到做某事的时候了It is high time to adopt measures to protect the environment.(更加地道)。
使用从句,从句使用虚拟语气,动词用一般过去时It is high time that measures were adopted to protect the environment确定句型、结构1)确定基准时态,能够避免犯大的语法错误比如:记叙文――一般过去时,以及他的变化议论文、说明文――一般现在时。
对照原文,首先检查译文是否正确的转述了原文的内容,是否有错译和漏译;其次,检查是否有语言上的明显错误,如:时态、语态、单复数、拼写、大小写、标点符号等,发现错误,及时改正。
汉英词汇比较与翻译
第一章汉英词汇比较与翻译第一节翻译中的选义翻译包括理解和表达两个过程。
要做好翻译,首先要对原文进行正确的理解。
但汉语和英语中都有很普遍的一词多义现象,却给理解和表达都带来了很大的困难。
一.根据词典释义选择合适的词义(略)二.根据语境选择合适的词义语义与语境关系密切。
同样的一个词,在不同的上下文里,就可能产生不同的意思。
英国语言学家Firth曾经说过:Each word is a new word in a new context (每个词在一个新的语境中就是一个新词)。
所以说,“多义词数量很多,但我们在语言的实际运用中,除少数歧义句外,却极少见到词的多义现象。
因为在一个具体语境中只使用多义词的其中一个义项”(傅敬民等,《英汉翻译辨析》,p10)。
先看英译汉的例子。
比如man这个词的翻译:man and wife 夫妻officers and men 官兵his man Friday 佣人,仆人man-of-war 战舰,军舰(尤指帆船)Be a man! 像个男子汉!(勇敢一些,坚强一些)另以straight为例:1. He is a straight thinker.2. Put your room straight.3. She keeps straight.4. The accounts are straight.5. They voted the straight ticket.6. She went straight home without going to the market.7. He was tall and straight and clear-eyed and dark.8. He is fairly straight with me.9. This is a very straight place.10.There are a lot of things we’ve got to get straight.11. Thanks for setting me straight.12. I believe I am thinking straight.13. He keeps a straight face.1.他的思路很有条理。

汉译英_成语的翻译 2
二、 将四字词组译成短语,如介词短语、
副词短语、不定式短语
这种方法往往是套用英语中最简单的词
组或句型。
某位领导的讲话要求外交人员“立场坚
定、目光远大、头脑敏捷、业务熟练、 才华出众、风格高尚”, “A Chinese diplomat should be firm in stand, broad in vision, swift in wit, qualified in profession, outstanding in talent, noble in character.”
三、套用英语中意思相同及功能对等 的习语
四字词组中有很大一部分是固定词组,即成语。成语
往往带有浓厚的民族色彩和地方色彩。翻译时除了要 忠实地表达原文意义之外,还要尽可能保持原文成语 的形象比喻,丰富联想,修辞效果以及其民族、地方 特点等。有的成语和英语中的习语在内容和形式上都 相符合,双方不但有相同的意义和修辞色彩,并且有 相同或大体相同的形象比喻。汉译英时,如果遇到这 种情况,不妨直截了当地套用英语同义习语。这样的 译文可能会增色不少,基本能实现四字词组的美学价 值转移。

With the development of social life and human development, language also plays an increasing key role in serving as a mirror of social changes. Chinese neologisms can be regarded as the most active and sensitive element. Ever since recent years,Chinese language has also witnessed great changes. Such changes mainly result in the increase of Chinese neologisms.Faced with the neologisms springing up,we should properly translating them or some of them into correct and idiomatic English.It becomes an issue of how to translate Chinese neologisms idiomatically and remain cultural flavor at the same time. To cope with the cultural aspects in translation of the heavily cultural-loaded neologisms, foreinization and domestication are the most important methods. And of the two methods, which to choose is another issue. This thesis attempts to seek for the most suitable methods to get the unique Chinese culture well-known by foreign friends.

第三章 张春柏 汉译英 英汉词汇对比与翻译
第三章:英汉词汇对比与翻译英汉两种言分属印欧语系和汉藏语系,英语是拼音文字,汉语是表意文字,两者之间存在着很大的差异。
这种差异首先反映在词汇上。
与翻译关系比较密切的因素主要包括词义、词形、和词的音律和节奏等。
3.1英汉语的词义对比与翻译说到翻译,人们自然会想到词的选择。
有人以为手持一本英汉词典和一本汉英词典就可以翻译了。
这是一种非常幼稚的想法。
这不仅是因为翻译牵涉到诸多非语言因素,如文化知识和科学常识等,而且还因为英语和汉语和词汇之间本身就有着很大的差别。
这种差别首先表现在词义上。
英国语言学家利奇把最广义的意义划分为七种不同的类型:外延意义、内涵意义、社会意义、情感意义、反映意义、搭配意义和主题意义。
除了主题意义外,其他六种意义都与词义密切相关。
显然,词典告诉我们的主要是词的外延意义,如“土地”、“红色”、和“荷花”在英语中分别为earth、 red和 lotus flower,而它们的其他意义则不大可能作全面的反映。
可以毫不夸张地说,除了科技词汇外,英语和汉语中几乎没有两个词在所有的意义和用法上是完全对等的。
具体而言,英汉词汇在意义上主要有以下区别:1 词汇的意义范围(semantic scope)不一样,如英语中的kill 一词和汉语中的“杀”就相去甚远。
例如:1 Japanesekilled millions of innocent people during the war.army在那场战争中日本军队屠杀了成百上千万无辜的平民。
2) Three men were killed in the accident.有三个男子在事故中丧生。
3) The engine was killed by the flood.汽车的引擎由于大水而熄了火。
4) Your joke nearly killed me.你的笑话真是笑死人。
5) I’m reading this book just to kill time.我读这本书只是为了消磨时间。

三、汉英词汇视点差异
汉英两民族在思维上差异,表现在语言思维视点上也有 差异——从不同的思维视角来看待同一事物 。其具体差 异如下: 1.汉英修饰词的转换 A. 有时英语修饰词与汉语相反的情况: 抢险车 a breakdown lorry (不等于 a lorry that has broken down) 防暴警察 riot police (即 anti-riot police) 消防队 a fire brigade 打九折 a 10 percent discount 寒衣 warm clothes 候机室 the departure lounge
汉语词义的模糊性有其优点,有利于词汇的组合与 灵活运用,但在英译时,由于汉英在形象与喻义、所指 与内涵方面存在较大差异,稍不注意便可能导致语义不 准确。
1.形象与喻义 形象与喻义
如: (1).现在的问题时抓“落实”,以确保已出台的政 策措施全部到位。 从字面上看,英语的“抓”, “出台”, “到位”都不合此 上下文,这是汉语的形象表达,在译文中要用“使生 效”、“实行”和“执行”才能将英语实际意义表达出 来呢? To ensure full implementation of the polices and measures already introduced, the question now is how to bring them into effect.

目的:引入英文句式的表达法梁实秋、赵景深:宁顺而不信---rather to be smooth than faithful 目的:可读性强,便于交流。
4.直译与意译:直译---literal translation 意译:free translation直译的例子:crocodile tears鳄鱼的眼泪; armed to the teeth武装到牙齿; chain reaction连锁反应; gentlemen’s agreement君子协定; one country, two systems 一国两制;The three religions and the nine schools of thought 三教九流; paper tiger 纸老虎; Breath one’s last---断气; go to one’s external rest---安息; the long sleep---长眠; see Marx 见马克思;Go west 上西天; go to heaven 上天堂; blow out the candles 吹灯拔蜡kick the bucket 蹬腿: You can kick everything but you can not kick the bucket直译不等于死译(dead translation):街道妇女应动员起来打扫卫生:Women in the street should be called on to do some cleaning.“In the street” should be replaced by “in the community”.她一大早起床,进城,见到了她的公爹:She got up early, went to the town and saw her public father. Public father should be father in law.意译的例子:It rains cats and dogs / at sixes and sevens /Adam’s apple句子比较:Little fish does not eat big fish直译:小鱼不吃大鱼意译:胳膊拧不过大腿试译:天有不测风云,人有旦夕祸福:直译:Storms gather without warning in nature and bad luck befalls men overnight.意译:The weather and human life are both unpredictable有人说,翻译是带着镣铐跳舞(translation is like dancing in fetters);还有人说,翻译像女人,忠实的不漂亮,漂亮的不忠实。

本文内容是关于政府的环保政策,虽然与以往的传统文化有差别,但是符合大纲要求的社会、经济、政治、科技问题,所以在备考的时候要注意准备的内容要全面。原文中长句有点多,但主要是一些并列成分,所以在翻译时首先要划分好句子的主干部分,并列的内容逐个翻译,然后再用准确的词将各部分连接,这样就能将繁多内容有条理的整理出来。另外要注意数字表达不要出错。
