政治经济汉译英

第一节政治经济习俗语的形象表达与指称意

义的解读

由于文化差异的影响，不同民族对同一形象往往产生不同的联想和体味，翻译中的形象转换不可避免。

若两种语言中形象与喻义刚好巧合，这种转换就比较顺利。

在形象和喻义难以两全的情况下，是保留形象还是保留喻义呢？

通常舍喻义，保形象，因为意义是第一位的。翻译就是译意。

建立“一站式”服务中心，为外国投资者提供审批业务“一条龙”服务。

Set up the

“One-stop” Service Center to provide a coordinated process

service for foreign investors in obtaining approval. 期间多次实行权力下放，但都只限于调整中央和地方、条条和块块的管理权限。

development on one

hand and to the

development of

socialist culture and ideology on the other hand.

以江泽民为核心的党中央坚持两手抓、两手都要硬的方针，从多

方面加强精神文明建设…

必须清楚看到，……“一手比较硬，一手比较软”的问题还没有解决。

sober mind that …”attaching importance to material progress while negle cting ethical and cultural progress” has not been solved.

十年来最大的失误在教育。一手比较硬，一手比较软。

搞现代化建设一定要坚持以经济建设为中心，要有两手，只有一手是

第二节政治经济用语

的字面意义与内涵表达指称意义也叫所指意义、认知

意义，指词与所指客体、思想或行为之间的直接关系。（denotation, designative meanings, cognitive meaning, referential meaning, conceptual meaning）

蕴涵意义，也称情感意义，指词内含的情感和联想意义. (connotation, affective meaning, implied meaning, suggested

meaning )

不看具体语境究其内涵意义，很难想到他们相应的正确英语表达法。仅仅根据其字面意义，这类用语无法译出，即使查字典，也常常无从查起。

因此，必须在吃透原文，从整个篇幅着眼，不拘泥于个别字句，注重特定语境中上下文的关

系，注重文化差异，译出其内涵意义。
