What is translation?
LOGO
—— To write is to translate what one is thinking of or understanding.
—— As a matter of fact, guessing what other people mean is also a kind of translating.
（翻译是把一种语言所表达的思想用另一种语言重新表达出来的活动。）
B. Eugine Nida（尤金· 奈达, American translation theorist）： Translation consists in reproducing in the receptor language the closest natural equivalent of the source-language message, first in terms of meaning and secondly in terms of style. (Nida & Taber: The Theory and Practice of Translation)

• God created the world within six days and on the seventh, he rested from his work. He then made Adam and Eve. One generation after another, the number of humans began to increase greatly. Meanwhile, the wickedness of humankind was great. So, God destroyed the earthly things in the Great Flood except Noah and his Ark. Far after the flood, the families of Noah’s sons spread on the earth in nations. • At that time the whole earth had one language and the same words. In the land of Shinar, humans planned to build a tower. ―Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower with its top in the heavens.‖ However, God was not pleased with this plan. God said, ―Look, they are one people, and they have all one language; and this is only the beginning of what they will do; nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them. Come, let us go down, and confuse their language there, so that they will not understand one another’s speech.‖ So the Lord scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city, the tower. That was called Babel, where God confused the language of all the earth.

• Translation is not the transcoding of words or sentences from one language to another, but a complex form of action, whereby someone provides information on a text (source language material) in a new situation and under changed functional, cultural and linguistic conditions, preserving formal aspects as closely as possible. (1986:33, trans.Snell-Hornby, 1990:82)

• Cultural theorist Stuart Hall (1980) • The ―encoding/decoding‖ approach settles a dispute in communication study: meaning is not only passed on by information sender, it is also generated by information receiver.

• In her book ―Translation as a Purposeful Activity: Functionalist Approaches Explained‖ (2001) Nord introduces the popular functionalists in German. She also states that functional translation is based on two principles: ―function‖ and ―loyalty‖. By using ―loyalty‖, rather ―faithfulness‖ she defines translation as an interpersonal communication, which should emphasize the need of target reader. Nord divides source text into 4 types: • One, referential function. • Two, expressive function. • Three, appellative function. • Four, phatic function.
