英汉语言对比-习题·+答案
英汉语言对比Synthetic vs. AnalyticⅠ. Answer QuestionsDirections: Answer the Questions in English briefly, with examples if necessary. 1.What are synthetic languages(综合语)? How are they characterized?According to Webster’s Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary, A synthetic language is “Characterized by frequent and systematic use of inflected forms to express grammatical relationships”2.What are analytical languages(分析语)? How are they characterized?According to The Random House College Dictionary, An analytic language is “Characterized by a relatively frequent use of function words, auxiliary verbs and changes in words order to express syntactic relations, rather than of inflected forms”.3.Why English language is more flexible in word order(语序)? Why is it not so inChinese?Because word order is more connected with the formal changes. If the form change is more flexible, the word order is more flexible. Chinese language is an analytic language, the word order cannot be change at random, in which the relationship between the words are closely related with word order and function words.4.What is the usual word order in English sentences? What are the nine types ofinversion in English sentences?The usual word order in English sentence is Subject-Verb-Object.

Articles are frequent employed. To use an article or not, and to use a definite one or an indefinite one, makes great difference in expression of meaning.

Fill in the BlanksDirections: Fill in the blanks with the best answer you have found in the textbook.1.11.综合语的特征是经常性、系统性的运用曲折形式来表现语法关系为特征的语言,分析语的特征是分析语的特征是相对频繁地使用功能词,助词和改变词序来表达句法关系,而不用曲折形式来表达。

从英汉语言对比的角度看英语介词的用法及其翻译
从英汉语言对比的角度看英语介词的用法及其翻译作者:金捷来源:《考试周刊》2012年第46期摘要:无论在汉语里还是在英语里,介词都是一类带有功能性的虚词,把句子的各个成分粘着在一起。
同时,英汉介词亦存在着差异。
本文在对比英语介词和汉语介词异同的基础上,论述英语介词的用法及其翻译,旨在对英语学习者有所启示。
关键词:英汉语言对比英语介词用法翻译一、英语介词和汉语介词的构成1.根据结构区分英汉介词。
英语介词大致可以分为四类:(1)简单介词。
at,during。
(2)合成介词:alongside,throughout等。
(3)带-ing词尾的介词。
including,concerning等。
(4)成语介词。
instead of,regardless of等。
而汉语介词的分类较英语介词简单,只分为单音节介词,如:在、往;双音节介词,如:关于、根据。
2.根据语义区分英汉介词。
英语介词按其语义又可分为三类。
(1)表示时间。
如,at(4 o’clock),in(spring)。
(2)表示地点。
如:behind(the village),between(the park and the river)。
(3)表示其他的短语。
如:让步despite(the bad weather),原因due to(the snow),目的for(her),条件without(the support),关于regarding(your future)等。
根据语义,汉语介词可以分为:表示处所地点和时间的介词,如:在、从、朝等。
表示对象的介词,如:对于、关于、跟。
表示凭借的介词,如:根据、凭借。
表示比较的介词,如:比、较之。
表示目的、原因和结果的介词,如:由于、为了、因、通过等。
二、英汉介词的句法功能1.英汉介词在句子中充当的成分。
在英语句子中,介词主要可以作主语、表语、定语、宾语补足语及状语。
如下例子:Between seven and nine will suit me.(主语)/What’s the advantage of cleaning the bedroom?(定语)/I regard him as my sister.(宾语)。
英汉变异修辞比较与翻译
英汉变异修辞比较与翻译
英汉变异修辞比较是指英汉两种语言之间由于语言结构、文化背景等的不同而导致的修辞手法表达上的差异。
以下是一些常见的英汉变异修辞比较及翻译:
1.比喻
英文中,比喻多使用“like”、“as”等介词,而中文中则使用“像”、“如同”等词语。
比如:
•英文:She was as quick as a fox.(她像狐狸一样灵敏。
)
•中文:她像狐狸一样灵敏。
1.拟人
英文中,拟人化语言的使用更加自由,比如将物品、动物等赋予人类的特征。
中文中则相对较少使用,但也有类似表达。
比如:•英文:The flowers danced in the
breeze.(花儿在微风中起舞。
)
•中文:微风中,花儿舞动着身姿。
1.反语
英文中,反语的使用较为普遍,强调语气的变化来达到反语的效果。
中文中也有反语的使用,但是表现形式不同。
比如:•英文:I’m not the kind of person who gives up
easily.(我不是那种容易放弃的人。
)
•中文:我可不是那种容易放弃的人。
1.借代
英文中,常常使用借代,将事物代替人物进行描述。
中文中也有类似表达,但使用较少。
比如:
•英文:The sun smiled down on us.(阳光对我们微笑着。
)
•中文:太阳微笑着照耀着我们。
总之,英汉之间存在很多的变异修辞,不同语言之间的文化背景和语言结构的不同造就了不同的修辞表达。
翻译时,需要根据具体情境和表达方式来进行恰当的转化和表达。

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.
自学 teacher himself (a self-taught student)
E. 观察事物的角度或联想意义不一样 close the door behind you.——着眼于人所在的位置 随手关门——着眼于手 lie on one ‘ s back ; lie on one ’ a stomach -一以后背为准; 仰卧;伏卧一一以面向为准 胆小如鼠 as timid as a rabbit ; 蠢得像猪 a s stupid as a goose 雨后春笋 be like bamboo shoots after a spring rain F.词语的排列顺序不同 前后back and forth 新旧old and new 冷热hot and cold
英汉语言对比练习答案2
1.翻译下列句子,注意调整语序1)A reader’s perception of the loose, slangy, colloquial, shirt-sleeved quality of much modern prose will be sharpened if he has experienced the conscious elegance of eighteenth-century writers and the solemn lecture-hall pronouncements of the Victorians. (按照逻辑顺序译)【译文】如果一位读者读过18世纪作家的作品,体会到其刻意追求典雅的语言风格,又读过维多利亚女王时代的人在演讲大厅上所作的庄严的发言,他定能更深刻地理解很多现代散文作品那种结构松散、口语色彩浓、好用俚语、不拘形式的语言风格。
2)He felt a qualm in his stomach, and it was more in memory of his own loneliness than anticipation of hers.(按照信息中心译)【译文】他感到一阵心酸,与其说是预见了她的凄凉,倒不如说是想到了他自己的孤独。
3)Based on national realities and taking reasonable aspects of foreign economies, Chinese economists are working to establish socialist market economy, which ensures economic activities follow the requirements of the law of value and the changing relationship between supply and demand. (按照搭配需要译)【译文】在立足本国实际和借鉴海外经济合理成分的基础上,中国经济学者正致力于建立社会主义市场经济,要保证经济活动遵循价值规律的要求,适应供求关系的变化。
英汉介词对比研究及其翻译策略
英汉介词对比研究及其翻译策略摘要:介词在语法里是用来表现一个字的文法功能的词汇或字缀。
英汉这两种语言都有介词这一词类,亦称前置词,都属于虚词,用在名词、代词、名词性词语之前,共同组成介词短语或;用在动词之后,表示词语之间在时间、方式、条件、对象等方面的诸多关系。
它们的主要功能都是表示句子中词与词之间或者成分与成分之间的关系。
但是英汉两种语言的介词从特性到用法都有一定的差异性,对于这些相似和差异的认识,有助于学生挖掘隐藏在句子表面后的深刻的语言哲学规律,也能为学生运用这些规律解决实践中汉英翻译问题打开思路。
关键词:介词用法对比差异翻译一、引言介词的数量并不多,但其用法十分灵活,与其他词的搭配能力极强,表达内容也极其广泛,在句中出现的频率很高,是很活泼的词类。
通过研究英汉介词的差异性和相似性,挖掘隐藏在句子表面后的深刻的语言哲学规律,能为我们运用这些规律解决实践中汉英翻译问题打开思路。
二、英汉介词语法功能比较英汉介词是虚词,一般都不重读,在句子中不能单独充当句子成分,只能和后面的词,代词或名词性短语构成句子成分。
但是,英语介词短语在句中所作的成分与汉语介词短语有所不同。
汉语介词短语主要作状语,有的可以做补语,还有的在介词短语后面可作定语,如:①他在图书馆借书。
(作状语,表空间)②她从早上一直工作到晚上。
(作状语,表时间)③我们的干部要对人民负责。
(作状语,表对象)④我们的工作方法是通过调查研究来解决问题。
(作状语,表方式方法)⑤全国人民的生活比过去更好了。
(作状语,表比较)⑥他作了一个关于科学家彭加木的报告。
(作定语)1.与汉语相同的是英语的介词短语也可作状语、定语和补足语:①albert has so much work to do that he’s staying late at the office.艾伯特工作很多,现在还在办公室加班。
(作地点状语)②his heart danced crazily for a moment,then became normal again.他的心剧烈地跳了一会,然后又恢复正常了。

Translate the following passage into Chinese.It was a valley far removed from towns, and the road through it led to another village. The road was rough and there were no cars or buses to disturb the ancient quietness of this valley. There were bullock(小公牛)carts, but their movement was a part of the hills. There was a dry river bed that only flowed with water after heavy rains, and the color was a mixture of red, yellow and brown; and it, too, seemed to move with the hills. And the villagers who walked silently by were like the rocks.The day wore on and towards the end of the evening, as the sun was setting over the western hills, the silence came in from afar, over the hills, through the trees, covering the little bushes and the ancient banyan(菩提树;[林]印度榕树). And as the stars became brilliant, so the silence grew into great intensity; you could hardly bear it.2.

语言对比与翻译(3)词汇比较
(4)英语中有些拟声词兼做及物或不及物动词,有些 声音带有动作,汉译时常需要把动作方式和动作 分别表达出来。 Eg: a1. He banged at the door. 他砰砰砰地敲门。 a2. Helen banged the door open and ran blindly out into the train. 海伦砰地一声把门踢开,没头没脑地冲进雨中。
2.纯拟声词
(1)拟声词多循着各自的音系系统去模仿,肯定都 “失真”,英汉语中真正相似的拟声词很少 (2)英语中的多半属于动词或名词,可做谓语、主 语或宾语。 (3)汉语中的多带形容词性质,可做定语、状语或 谓语。 (4)翻译时注意拟声词使用的描述对象。
拟声词的描述对象 例如:
狮吼 虎啸 狼嚎 to roar to growl to howl
(5)英语介词短语可以后置,修饰名词短语 a. There was a Hispanic girl in special education because she just never learned to read. 有个西班牙女孩,她从没学会阅读,正在接受特殊 教育。 b. If a protein appears or disappears completely, investigations can be focused on the protein in question. 如果一种蛋白质出现或完全消失了,研究工作就可 以集中在这个有问题的蛋白质上。

英语介词的不同之处
