What is translation?(翻译的定义),The Oxford English Dictionary: to turn from one language into another(从一种语言转换成另一种语言);Websters third New International Dictionary of the English Language: to turn into ones own or another language(转换成本族语或另一种语言)。翻译是一种“语言转换”活动。,11,The definition is:,Translation is a rendering from one language into another, i.e., the faithful representation in one language of what is written or said in another language.To be more exact, in Nidas & Tytlers words,12,美国翻译理论家Eugene A. Nida：,Translating 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. （所谓翻译，是指在译语中用最切近而又自然的对等语再现原语的信息，首先在语义上，其次在文体上。),13,A good translation is one which the merit of the original work is so completely transfused into another language as to be as distinctly apprehended and as strongly felt by a native of the country to which that language belongs as it is by those who speak the language of the original work. 好的翻译应该是把原作的长处完全地移注到另一种语言，以使译人语所属国家的本地人能明白地领悟、强烈地感受，如同使用原作语言的人所领悟、所感受的一样。(泰特勒，1790),Alexander Fraser Tytler:,14,综合各家之长:,翻译是把一种语言表达的意义用另一种语言传达出来，以达到沟通思想情感、传播文化知识、促进社会文明，特别是推动译语文化兴旺昌盛的目的。Translation is an activity of reproducing in one language the ideas which have been expressed in another language.,15,2. Scope of Translation,in terms of languages:in terms of the mode:in terms of materials to be translated:in terms of disposal: (full-text translation, abridged translation, adapted translation),1.按语言分类：语内翻译（intralingual translation）语际翻译（interlingual translation）2. 按活动形式分类：笔译（translation）口译（oral interpretation）： 连续传译（consecutive translation） 和同声传译（simultaneous translation）,3. 按翻译材料的文体分类：应用文体翻译 科技文体翻译论述文体翻译新闻文体翻译艺术文体翻译4. 按处理方式分类：全译 节译 摘译 编译 译述,16,3.

There is really a big gap between the characteristics of the two languages. In order to learn the translation course better, we have to study the comparison between the source language and the target language. Just because all the theories, methods, techniques concerning English-Chinese translation are based on the comparison, it is very important, so to say, to master the languages peculiarities.,30,Only by doing so can we raise our distinguishing ability, have a good command of the characteristics and apply the techniques consciously in our translation. Thus we can achieve better comprehension and better representation. The comparison here will be shown in the following points:,I. Language Families (语系),31,English belongs to the Germanic branch of the Indo-European language family(印欧语系). Chinese belongs to the Sino-Tibetan language family（汉藏语系）. It is well known that English has the richest vocabulary of any European language. On the basis of Angles language (Anglo-Saxon), English was built by absorbing words in various languages:E.g. Latin: Pen, pencil, cup, butter, silk French: pork, feast, sir, noble, Italian: piano, solo, studio, opera, umbrella, pilgrim,32,Spanish: cargo, cigarette, cigar,Greek: paper, alphabet, dialogue, comedyChinese: tea, chow mein, kowtow, toufu, Originally English had its gender, case, number, conjugationthese complicated changes. Because of the wide borrowings, English couldnt keep the changes, case disappearing, gender being not so strict as some other languages, only subjective case and objective case remaining and only pronouns having the changes. As English absorbed foreign words only, without absorbing grammar rules, new words can only be formed by means of derivation, composition and conversion, etc.,33,II. Word-building,The major ways of word-building in English are composition, conversion, and derivation (affixation). And in Chinese we have the same major ways.English：Composition: motherland, blackboard, waterworks, handwriting, silkworm, outbreak, easy-going, home-made, whitewash; The United Stated is a “do-it-yourself” country.Conversion: paper the window, empty the basket, elbow ones way, ups and downs, many ifs;He bicycled off a moment ago.,34,Derivation: able-unable, take-mistake, hope-hopeless- hopelessness, act- inaction,Chinese:,Composition: 并列式：语言，改革，树立，遥远，左右，出入，好歹；偏正式：学分，本科，红糖，笑声，新衣；主谓式（主从式）：耳闻，目睹，脸红，胆小，月明；动宾式：思甜，攻关，灭火，开车，忆苦，踢球；补充式：提前，救活，改善，说明，调好；重迭式：平平安安，高高兴兴，懒洋洋，亮晶晶，方方面面,英语中也有主谓式，但较少：eyestrain, heartburn, face-ache英语中也有动宾式或动补式，但一样较少：do-all, breakneck, make-peace,35,Conversion: 一棵大树， 十年树人；出售油漆，油漆门窗； 鸡鸭鱼肉，鱼肉百姓；他在办公室，他在办公室打电话； 安全第一，不太安全；今天真热，把饭热一下；廉颇老矣，尚能饭否？,36,Derivation: 前缀 （Prefix）超 超人，超额，超支，超音速，超短波；非 非人，非常，非原则，非正式，非军事化，无 无视，无限，无线电，无名氏，无疑；汉语中的“非”，“无”相当于英语中的前缀un-,in-, il- 和后缀-less: invalid, inorganic, unconscious, unmatched, informal, illegal, endless, fearless, merciless,37,Derivation: 前缀 （Prefix）反 反动，反攻， 反驳，反问，反腐败，反法西斯；可 可亲，可爱，可口，可调整，可怜兮兮；某些相当于英语的后缀able, 和ful: shameful, reliable, hateful, pitiful, fearful, valuable, considerable, 后缀（Suffix）：手 助手，舵手，选手，帮手，一把手； 年 幼年，晚年，青少年，周年，光年；子 金子，银子，票子，耗子，妻子，爱面子；头 外头，对头，拳头，风头，枕头，苗头；其中表示人的后缀有“员，者，家，师，士”等，相当于英语中的后缀：-er, -or, -eer, -ian, -ist等。,38,III. 音节及其他,. 英汉两种语言里都有单音节词（monosyllabic）， 双音节词(dissyllabic) 和多音节词(poly-syllabic): e.g. 我，study 学习，perseverance 锲而不舍；2. 还有，汉语中既有字也有词，而英语中一般只称作词。如汉语里的连绵词，分开则叫字，合起来才叫词。如：澎湃，鸳鸯，徘徊等； 英语句子中，词与词之间有空格，而汉语句子中，词与词之间无空格，每个字所占位置几乎一样大。 当然在书写成汉语拼音时，词与词之间有空格。 如：Xuexi yingyu yao xia kugong.,39,3. 两种语言中均有拟声词， 如：Tick 嘀嗒（钟表声） baa 咩咩（绵羊或羔羊叫声）4. 英语中有缩略词，类似汉语中的简化字或缩略语，如：Advertisementad numberno. 马克思主义、列宁主义马列主义；業业；鞏巩；高等院校高校， 公共关系公关； 5. 因为汉语中不仅有词，还有字，所以除了构词法外， 还有“六书”构字法，即：指事、象形、会意、形声、转注、假借。这是英语中所没有的。,40,I love my love with an E, because shes enticing; I hate her with an E, because shes engaged; I took her to the sign of the exquisite, and treated her with an elopement; her names Emily, and she lives in the east. (Dickens, David Copperfield),译文1： 我爱我的爱人为了一个E，因为她是Enticing (迷人的)；我恨我的爱人为了一个E, 因为她是Engaged (订了婚的)。我用我的爱人象征Exquisite (美妙)， 我劝我的爱人从事Elopement (私奔)，她的名字是Emily (爱弥丽)，她的住处在East (东方)。（董秋斯）,R,41,译2：我爱我的爱人，因为她很迷人；我恨我的爱人，因已许配他人；他在我心中是美人，我带她私奔，以避开外人；她名叫虞美人，是东方丽人。（姜秋霞、张柏然）,I love my love with an E, because shes enticing; I hate her with an E, because shes engaged; I took her to the sign of the exquisite, and treated her with an elopement; her names Emily, and she lives in the east. (Dickens, David Copperfield),R,42,译文3： 我爱我的那个“丽”，可爱迷人有魅力；我恨我的那个“丽”，要和他人结伉俪；她文雅大方又美丽，和我出逃去游历； 她芳名就叫爱米丽，家住东方人俏丽。（马红军）,I love my love with an E, because shes enticing; I hate her with an E, because shes engaged; I took her to the sign of the exquisite, and treated her with an elopement; her names Emily, and she lives in the east. (Dickens, David Copperfield),R,43,译文4： 我爱我的心上人，因为她那样地叫人入迷（enticing）；我恨我的心上人，因为她已订婚将作他人妻（engaged）；她花容月貌无可比拟（exquisite），我劝她私奔跟我在一起（elopement）；她的名字叫埃米莉（Emily），她的家就在东城里（east）。我为我的心上人呀，一切都因为这个E！（陆乃圣）,I love my love with an E, because shes enticing; I hate her with an E, because shes engaged; I took her to the sign of the exquisite, and treated her with an elopement; her names Emily, and she lives in the east. (Dickens, David Copperfield),R,44,第三章 词语的翻译词义的选择,词义的选择,英汉两种语言都有一词多类、一词多义的现象。一词多类就是指一个词往往属于几个词类，具有几个不同的意义。一词多义就是说同一个词在同一个词类中，又往往有几个不同的词义。在英汉翻译过程中，我们在弄清原句结构后就要善于选择和确定原句中关键词的词义。选择和确定词义通常从以下几个方面着手（教材P30-46）：1. 根据词在句中的词类来选择和确定词义 选择某个词的词义，首先要判明这个词在原句中应属哪一种词类，然后再进一步确定其词义。例如： Like charges repel. Unlike charges attract.,12345, ,45,但在下面例句中，like又分属其他几个不同词类：1) He likes mathematics more than physics.他喜欢数学甚于喜欢物理学。（动词）2) In the sunbeam passing through the window there are fine grains of dust shining like gold.在射入窗内的阳光里，细微的尘埃象金子一般在闪闪发光。（前置词）3) Like knows like.英雄识英雄。（名词）,12345,46,4). 启事：信招领启事 推荐信鸣谢启事 证明信征稿启事 口信更正启事 表 病历表 履历表 时间表 日程表,Case History Form,Acknowledgements,Certificate,Corrections,Letter of Recommendation,Contributions Wanted,Found,Timetable,Resume,Schedule,An Oral Message,47,2. 根据上下文联系以及词在句子中的搭配关系来选择和确定词义 英语中同一个词，同一词类，在不同场合往往也有不同的含义，必须根据上下文的联系以及词的搭配关系或句型来判断和确定某个词在特定场合下所应具有的词义。例如“Last”这一形容词：1)He is the last man to come. 他是最后来的。(Being, coming, or placed after all others; final) 2)He is the last man to do it. 他绝对不会干那件事。 (Least likely or expected)3)He is the last person for such a job.他最不配干这个工作。(The least desirable or suitable),12345,“Each word when used in a new context is a new word.” J.R. Firth,48,再如“take （off）这一动词：1)To take off her boots or to put them on was an agony to her, but it had been an agony for years. 脱鞋或穿鞋对她是一种痛苦，但这已经是多年以来的痛苦了。 The flyers practiced taking off time after time from this restricted space. 飞行 人员反复地在一块有限空地上练习起飞。,12345,3）took the brake off， took 20 percent off. 松开刹车 优惠百分之二十,49,何为词义的引申,词义的引申是指在一个词所具有的原始意义的基础上，根据上下文和逻辑关系进一步加以引申，选择适当确切的目标语词语来表达，避免生搬硬套地逐句死译，使译文更加通顺流畅。由于英语词义对上下文的依赖性强，可变性大，因此词义引申对英译汉尤为重要。当然，词义的引申不得超出原始意义所允许的范围。,50,词义引申的手段,词义的转化词义的具体化词义的抽象化,51,词义的转化,翻译时，如果完全生搬硬套字典所给的字面意思，“对号入座”，会使译文生硬晦涩，含糊不清，甚至令人不知所云。因此，应根据上下文和原词的字面意思，作适当的转化。,52,Case 1,The factors which are likely to influence investment spending do not stop here.译：可能影响投资开支的因素并不止这些。析：do not stop here 由“不停留在这里”转译为“并不止这些”。,53,Case 2,Whether you like it or not, globalization is here to stay. We are not going to reverse the trend.译：不管你对它的态度如何，经济全球化已成为我们生活的一部分，这个趋势不可逆转。析：若把它死译为“呆在这里”，不通顺。但引申为“已成为我们生活的一部分”，把原文的信息充分地传达出来，且易于读者理解。,54,Case 3,Our products, if maintained properly and regularly, can at least see twenty years service.译：我们的产品如果适当地定期检修，至少可以使用20年。析：see twenty years service 由“看见20年的服务”转译为“使用20年”。,55,Case 4,Thats a tall story about the towns high street.原译：这就是有关镇上高处街道的大故事。 改译: 有关这城主街的说法是在令人难以置信。 high street: the main street of a town or a city; tall: a. hard to believe, exaggerated,56,词义的具体化,词义的具体化是指把原义抽象笼统的词语，根据目标语的表达习惯，引申为意义明确具体的词语。英语中常用代表抽象意义的词表示一种具体事物，译成汉语时一般须作具体化的引申，否则意义会不明朗。,57,Case 1,There is more to their life than political and social and economic problem, more than transient everydayness.译：他们的生活远不止那些政治的、社会的和经济的问题，远不止一时的柴米油盐问题。析：everydayness 由“日常性”具体引申为日常生活所必需的“柴米油盐”。,58,Case 2,The factory is famous for its arsenal of technical geniuses.译：这家工厂以拥有众多技术精英而著称。析：arsenal 由“军火库”具体引申为“众多”。,59,词义的抽象化,词义的抽象化是指是将表示具体形象的词作概括性的引申，译成意义抽象的词。例如，将“之乎者也”译成“literary jargons”或 “pedantic jargons”就是一种词义抽象化的处理。现代英语常用表示具体形象的词指代一种属性、一种概念或一个事物，翻译时宜作抽象化的处理，使译文更加自然流畅。,60,Case 1,The interest rates have see-sawed between 10 and 15 percent.译：利率一直在10到15之间不断波动。析：see-saw 由 “跷跷板一上一下的交替摆动”抽象化为“波动”。,61,Case 2,Brain drain has been Kangdings No.1 concern; as a matter of fact, it has been an epidemic in this area.译：人才外流一直是康定的头号问题，实际上，它已经成为那一地区带普遍性的严峻问题。析：brain 由“头脑”抽象化为“人才”，concern 由“关心的事情”抽象化为“问题”，epidemic 由“流行病”抽象化为“带普遍性的严峻问题”。,62,Case 3,There is a mixture of the tiger and the ape in the character of the imperialists.译：帝国主义者的性格既 残暴，又狡猾。析：这里把tiger和ape这两个具体形象引申为这两个形象所代表的的属性：“残暴”和“狡猾”。,63,Case 4,Every life has its
