chinglish英语释义

chinglish英语释义

chinglish英语释义
English: Chinglish refers to the use of Chinese and English mixed together in speech or writing, often resulting in awkward or incorrect language. This phenomenon can occur when a native Chinese speaker attempts to directly translate Chinese words or phrases into English, leading to expressions that may not be commonly used or understood by native English speakers. Chinglish can also be found in signage, menus, and other public displays in China, as efforts to include English translations can sometimes miss the mark and create confusion for English-speaking visitors.
中文翻译: Chinglish指的是在口语或书面语中将中文和英语混合使用,通常导致语言使用不当或不准确。

当中国母语者试图直译中文单词或短语成英文时,往往会出现这种现象,导致的表达可能不被英语母语者常用或理解。

Chinglish也可以在中国的标识、菜单和其他公共展示中找到,因为包含英文翻译的努力有时会偏离实质并给讲英语的游客造成困惑。

汉英翻译中的Chinglish

汉英翻译中的Chinglish

汉英翻译中的Chinglish作者:方菲杨万鹏来源:《中国校外教育·理论》2008年第23期【摘要】严复的“信、达、雅”三个字精辟地概括了翻译的标准,但在实践中达到这个标准,却不是一件容易的事。

汉荚翻译中有两种倾向:一种是一味追求译文流畅、文辞优美,忽略乃至偏离了原意;另一种是过于拘泥原文字句,机械地从字面上“对号入座”,译文不顺而且难懂。

这两种倾向都不符合“信、达、雅’’标准。

我国的翻译工作一直在进步、在发展,尤其是改革开放以来的20年时间里,解决了大量出现的新问题、新词汇、新提法,在外交和对外宣传工作中发挥了巨大作用。

但也不容忽视翻译工作中存在的问题,特别是译文质量方面的问题。

【关键词】汉英翻译 Chinglish 产生原因表现形式解决办法1 产生Chinglish的原因及表现形式1.1带有中国特色的词汇不断出现改革开放以来,产生了不少新词汇,出现了一些新提法。

在英文里没有或一时找不到相应的译法,只能解释性地翻译。

解释不了,就字对字译出,因而容易出现“Chinglish”。

例1:“三讲”(讲学习、讲政治、讲正气)初译:emphasize the need to study,to have political awareness and to be honest and upright.改译:emphasize on three things:study,politics and integrity.改译虽然简单明了,但也设完全摆脱中式英文的味道,而且politics一字有时含贬意。

例2:“科研成果产业化”—— apply scientific research results to industrial production.“国民经济信息化”——build an information based national economy.“国际关系民主化”——Democracy should be practiced in international relations.汉语中经常出现“化”字,有的可直译,但不能滥用,譬如,把上例第三句译成:International relations should be democratized,意思就走样了。

你说的可能是假英文,老外总结的这些常见中式英文(Chinglish)

你说的可能是假英文,老外总结的这些常见中式英文(Chinglish)中国小伙伴们最爱在时间表达上出错,最常见的就是这种:He will arrive after one hour. 只想说,我明白你的意思,但是英语是母语的人不会这样说。

(应该把after换成in。

)另一个常能听到的句子是You have a rest. 也只有在中国才听过好几次,细想想也不能算有错。

如果是让人去歇歇,美国人一般会说:Go get some rest.网友Ron TF Lum:我在学校里学过中文,所以知道中文里的“ta”或者“他”可以男女通用,口语中更没有第三人称分男女的习惯。

因此,你就可以想象到一个中国小伙用英语描述他对象的情景了~ 网友Ryan Chew:英语中的时态都体现在动词的词尾上,而中文里没有这种词形变化,要靠补充其他词来表示。

举几个栗子,你就明白了:我吃过了。

English: I have eaten.Chinglish: I eat already.我去过了。

English: I went there.Chinglish: I go already.我见过她了。

English: I have met her.Chinglish: I meet her already.网友Gale Pedowitz:我见过最多的错是“until now”和“so far”两个不分。

(可能是因为中文里都和“至今”有关的原因。

)就连一些英语水平还不错的人也常搞混,比如:Common usage error: I have not seen it until now.Correct intent: I have not seen it, so far.这两种表达的区别就在于,本意是指从来都没见过时用so far;如果用了until now则意思是以前没见过,现在是第一次见。

看完歪果仁的吐槽,是不是感觉自己的英语水平还有上升的空间?憋捉急,刚走出国门的小伙伴,脑子也经常转不过来,总也甩不掉Chinglish,让老外狂晕不止呢↓↓↓下面就是这些Chinglish说法,其中每行第一部分是汉语说法,第二部分是Chinglish说法,第三部分则是英语的标准说法。

• 这是按照汉语的字面意思来表达,动词“forget”在表示 “忘记带某物”时,不与地点状语连用。该句正确表达是 “I left my dictionary at home.”

C.要了解西方国家的文化和风土人情,强 调了解中西文化差异才能使交际有效
• 如:Jack is a green hand at doing this work. (杰克做 这种工作没有经验)这里“green hand”意思是“生手”、 “没有经验”,而不是“绿色的手”之意。England是个 岛国,船是重要交通工具,为保养船只,常用与海水一样 的绿色油漆来漆船。一个不熟练的油漆工,工作时常会双 手粘满油漆。了解了这一背景,“green hand”之意就 不喻自明。又如:Smith can do nothing in the company because he is just a small potato there. (史 密斯在这家公司起不了什么作用,因为他在那里是个小人 物)“a small potato”是“小人物”之意,而非"小土豆" 的意思。只有了解西方文化,才会理解这种修辞的意义。

3. 这用英语怎么说? How do you say it in English? (√) How to say this in English? (×) 这个我相信很多中国人都会中招,how to say 是最为泛滥的中式英语之一。
类似的表达还有: How do you spell that please? --那个怎么拼写? How do you pronounce this word? --这个单词怎么发音? How can I say it/this? --该怎么说呢? What should I say? --该怎么说呢?
4. 我想我不行。 I don’t think I can. (√) I think I can’t. (×) 英语里表达”我想我不会”是把否定ห้องสมุดไป่ตู้放到了前面,这个和汉语刚好相反。
5. 英语不好 I am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving. (√) My English is poor. (×) 当我们遇到外国人时,经常能听到中国人说 My English is poor. 但外国人遇 到自己外语不好的情况,他们会说:I am still having a few problems, but I’m getting better. 或者—I can’t speak English very well, but I’m getting better.

50个chinglish的例子

50个chinglish的例子Chinglish(中式英语)是指因中文直译或中文表达方式和惯用法被误用而形成的一种中英混合的英语表达方式。

在中国,由于中文和英文的差异,很容易产生Chinglish。

这些Chinglish表达方式在我们使用英语进行沟通时可能会引发误解,给人留下不正式或不专业的印象。

以下是50个例子,用简体中文写。

浅析汉英翻译中的中式英语

浅析汉英翻译中的中式英语

浅析汉英翻译中的中式英语作者:刘彬彬来源:《读写算》2013年第41期摘要:本文主要阐述了汉英翻译中的中式英语一些基本定义和形式。

笔者通过分析原因,提出了解决翻译中的中式英语的一些方法。

关键词:汉英翻译中式英语方法一、中式英语定义中式英语(Chinglish)一词由来已久,中国式英语是指中国的英语学习和使用者由于受母语的干扰和影响,硬套汉语规则和习惯,在英语交际中出现的不合规范英语或不合英语文化习惯的畸形英语。

二、翻译中的中式英语学生学习英语时自然是先接触英汉互译,在母语基础上对英语进行同化处理,所以中英对照翻译学习成了学习者认知英语的手段之一。

学习者通过一对一的记忆来达到对英语的认知。

如英语中 big 就是汉语的"大",所以当要用英语翻译"一大早"时,他们就翻译成 a big morning,而没有顺应英语中很早的含义,从而做出相应的变化译成 early in the morning。

还有诸如马路译成horse road 等典型中式英语现象。

在词汇方面一词多译现象很多,但实际上含义不尽等同,如英语中的 look,see,watch 等都译成汉语的"看",学习者在翻译看书时就成了look a book。

不仅仅词汇翻译过程中容易产生中式英语,在句子互译中中式英语更难纠正。

由于汉语和英语的语法体现和行文习惯差异导致在句子翻译过程中容易出现诸如时态,修辞等方面中式英语。

主语是动作的发出者,宾语是承受者,这是汉语两种语言的共同点。

汉语中没有时态和词的单复数之分,在英语学习过程中学习者会有意识地进行同化认同而忽视英汉语言体系的差异。

英语名词有单复数之分,在名词后有词形的变化,而汉语则没有。

例如,一本书是 a book,而两本书就是 twobooks。

名词作主语,相应的谓语动词须随单复数做相应的改变。

学习者在翻译活动中习惯性地认同了汉语语言习惯而忽视了数的变化。

后者即是通常所谓的"Chinglish"(中式英语)。

中式英语是英语学习中普遍存在的一个问题,也是影响译文质量的主要问题之一,是当前最需要、也是最难解决的问题之一。

解决这一问题,从理论上进行研究是必要的,但更急需的是如何在实践中去求得解决。

本文通过许多实际工作中的例子,探讨Chinglish产生的原因、表现形式以及如何减少和避免这种现象。

Chinglish问题的解决,可以使英译文更地道、更符合英语习惯,从而达到"信、达、雅"这一最高境界。

汉英翻译中的 Chinglish问题
由于中国与英语国家的历史背 景、政治经济体制、社会文化形 态的不同,以及中国人与英语国 家人们思维方式和语言习惯的差 异,汉译英容易产生Chinglish,即 中式英语,Chinglish,因其半英 半汉、不英不汉,是一种畸形语 言现象,是影响汉英翻译质量的 一个主要因素。

第5章汉英翻译的CHINGLISH

第5章汉英翻译的CHINGLISH
❖ B: to accelerate economic reform
❖ “To accelerate” means to increase the pace of something, so “the pace of” is repeated in meaning and should be deleted.
❖ 前事不忘, 后事之师。
❖ Past experience, if not forgotten, is a guide for the future.
❖ 前不见古人, 后不见来者。
❖ Looking back, I do not see the ancients.
❖ Looking ahead, I cannot see the wise ones to come.
❖ In the strict sense, Chinglish is the interlanguage of Chinese learners between Chinese and English. Proposed by S. Pit Corder and Larry Selinker, the concept of interlanguage was established as learners’ independent system of the second language which is neither the native language nor the second language, but a continuum or approximation from his native language to the target language.
❖ Fifthly, not all the English teachers are English natives. Generally speaking, Chinese teachers use Chinglish more or less, so they will surely transfer Chinglish to their students.

中国式英语

中国式英语

“中国式英语”,也就是我们常说的Chinglish,基本上是指说英语时依然使用中文语法的现象。

这有时也被称为“转换错误”,因为你并没有真正使用外语的语法,而是把自己母语的语法转换到了外语上。

最常见的此类例子之一就是有人想表达“I am so bored!”(我真无聊死了!)却说成了“I am so boring!”(我真是个无聊的人!) 。

因为中文动词是没有词形变化的,中国的英语学习者在学习使用英文动词的-ing或-ed姓氏时总会遇到一些麻烦。

另外,由于中文第三人称“他”和“她”的读音是一样的,很多中国的英语学习者不能很好的区分英文的“he”和“she”, 所以你经常能听到有人犯这样的错误:“My mother is late. I don't know what time he will get her e.”(“我妈妈来晚了。

我不知道‘他’(应为‘她’)何时才能到这里。

”)这样的问题解决起来是很不容易的。

问题的根源是外语学习者都是在母语语法语境下学习的外语。

你听别人说英语时,首先要在心里把对方的话翻译成中文,然后决定如何回答,然后再在心里把你的回答翻成英文,再说出来。

要想流利的掌握一门外语,你需要能够使用该语言思考,而不用在头脑里来回翻译。

那些能够流利说外语的人因为具有这样的能力,说话时犯错比较少,交流的速度也比较快。

很多人都在学英语的过程中付出很多时间和精力,但取得进步并不明显,这让他们感到灰心丧气。

天赋异禀天生就擅长学外语的人确实有,但毕竟是少数,我们这些普通人都需要付出漫长的辛苦努力才能勉强掌握一门外语。

如果你想学好外语的话,有三个重点需要牢记:你可以称它们为“3A”——Access(多接触)、Attitude(好心态)和Activity(常练习)。

Access(多接触):近可能多的接触英语,尤其是母语人士说的英语。

最好的方式是和母语人士面对面的用英语交谈,但对大部分英语学习者来说可能很难。

"革命接班人"successors to the revolution应为:revolutionary successors
"革命事业接班人"successors to the revolutionary cause应为:successors in the revolutionary
cause
有的词句尽管搭配不当,但因长期使用而被英语国家接受,可谓约定俗成,例如:
二、搭配不当。由于受到汉语字面的影响,翻译中往往不是犯语法错误而是更深层次的搭配不当的问题。例如:
(3)"我们将……在新的世纪里不断谱写建设有中国特色的社会主义的新篇章。"
We will go on achieving fresh successes in building socialism with Chinese
改译:The COC has gone all out and done a lot of preparatory work for the
Postal Union Congress to make it a success. Both the Central Government
and the Beijing Municipal Government of China have rendered unfailing support
We will continue to unswervingly carry out the independent foreign policy
of peace.
b. We will steadfastly focus on economic development, resolutely press
a chapter与building socialism是不能搭配在一起的。
(4)若干一般常见的搭配不当的例句:
"来信写道"译为the letter writes属搭配不当,也是拟人化,应为:the letter reads
"取得成就"make achievements应为:score或"attain achievements
"Chinglish"是我上面所说后一种倾向的一个表现,它的存在导致某些译文生硬晦涩,使讲英语的读者敬而远之,影响了对外宣传的效果。还不能不引起我们的注意。
对"Chinglish",我们需要做一些理论上的探讨,但我认为更主要的是如何从实践中去求得解决。解决了这个问题,就可能使我们的译文更完美,更接近于"信、达、雅"这个标准。当然,这不是一朝一夕所能解决的,需要我们持续不懈地去努力。
unfailing support to the preparatory work of the Congress. The Governments
and competent postal departments of many countries have furnished kind
assistance to China’s preparatory work for the Congress. Here I’d like
that have given us support in this regard.
改译后,"大会"和"筹备"都只出现过一次,句子简练一些。
(6)"为了推动中美关系的发展,中国需要进一步了解美国,美国也需要进一步了解中国。"
初译:To promote the development of China-US relations, China needs to know
characteristics in the new century。
"谱写新篇章"在有的上下文可以译成write a new chapter,例如:"在中泰友好交往的历史中,谱写了新的篇章。"可译为:we have
written a new chapter in the annals of Sino-Thai friendship。而在例句(3)中就不能这样译,因为write
汉语中经常出现"化"字,有的可直译,譬如:"经济全球化",现译成:economic globalization。但不能一律简单译成"ize",譬如把上句译成:International
relations should be democratized。意思就走样了。
上述便句均为解释性的译文,免不了中式英文的味道。
"国民经济信息化"build an information-based national economy
"社会知识化"build a knowledge-driven society
"国际关系民主化"Democracy should be practised in intemational relations
(7)"依ቤተ መጻሕፍቲ ባይዱ治国……建立社会主义的法制国家"
初译:govern the country by law…and build the socialist country ruled by law累赘且费解。
改译:exercise the rule of law…and turn China into a socialist country with
I、产生Chinglish的主要原因及其表现形式
一、带有中国特色的词汇不断出现。改革开放以来,产生了不少新词汇、新提法,它们都是中国特有的,在英文里没有或一时找不到相应的译法,即使译出来也需要一定的磨合的过程。译文往往是解释性的,解释不了,就字对字译出,因而容易出现Chinglish。例如:
(1)"三讲"(讲学习、讲政治、讲正气)
the US better and the US also needs to know China better.
改译:To promote China-US relations, China needs to know the US better and
vice versa.
改后译文避免了重复,英文较顺。
初译:The Chinese Organizing Committee of the postal Union Congress has gone
all out to make preparations in order to make the Congress a success. The
Central Government and the Beijing Municipal Government of China have rendered
汉英翻译中的CHINGLISH(1)
严复的"信、达、雅"三个字精辟地概括了翻译的标准。这个标准要求译文既能忠实准确地表达原意,又能通顺流畅、文辞优美、可读性强。但在实践中达到这个标准,却不是一件容易的事。
汉英翻译中有两种倾向:一种是一味追求译文流畅、文辞优美,忽略乃至偏离了原意;另一种是过于拘泥原文字句,机械地从字面上"对号入座",译文不顺而且难懂。这两种倾向都不符合"信、达、雅"标准。在外事翻译中,后一种倾向更为常见。造成这一问题既有主观原因,如怕译文出政治差错,认为直译比较保险,因而不敢越雷池一步;另外也有客观的因素,政治、外交翻译政策性强,不仅要求内容准确、文字严密,而且时间性强,给翻译的时间有限,译者经常处于完成任务的匆忙之中,"该出手时就出手",难以从容地进行推敲润色,因而译文常常迁就中文,顾不得精益求精。我在四十年的翻译工作中,在限定时间内出手的译文常常留下一些永久的遗憾。
由于中国与英语国家的历史背景、政治、经济、社会、文化以及价值观等不同,汉译英容易产生中式英文,就像英译汉容易出现欧式中文一样。因此,要求译者不仅精通汉语和英语,而且熟悉英语国家人们的生活背景、思维方式和语言习惯,时刻关注英语发展动态,多听外电,多读英文原著和原文,逐渐克服"Chinglish",使英译文读起来比较地道。现就有关"Chinglish"几个问题谈几点看法,与前辈和同行探讨。
"把中国建设成为"build China into属Chinglish,应译为:turn China into。
但在克林顿欢迎江主席的讲话中就用了build San Francisco into a thriving cosmopolitan city。可见英语也在吸收外来语,也在不断发展。
三、重复和累赘。汉语和英语对名词、动词、形容词和副词的用法不同,所以对重复强调的
to express my most sincere thanks to all countries, departments and friends
that have given us support to the preparatory work for the Congress.
在这句话中,"大会",出现了五次,初译在英文中也出现五次。"筹备"一词在汉语中出现三次,在英译文中也出现了三次。译文句子非常累赘,有Chinglish的味道。
初译:emphasize the need to study, to have political awareness and to be honest
and upright
改译:emphasise on three things: study, politics and integrity
初译是解释性的,显然没有原文简洁。改译简单明了,但也没完全摆脱中式英文的味道。另外,politics一字有时含贬意。
