藏在英文里的希腊词根(六)
上一期正式介绍了oto-(耳朵)、odonto-(牙齿)和glosso-/glotto-(舌头;语言)3个希腊词根及其派生出的相关单词。我讲单词时经常东拉西扯,这反映的是词汇的特性:词汇并非孤立存在的单点,而是点点相连的网络。 同前五期一样,我们重点回顾一下至今为止学过的希腊词根,温故知新: (1) cardio-(心)【cardiovascular(心血管的)】 (2) cephalo-(

英国女王的签名
提到现任的英国女王,我们都知道她老人家的大名是Elizabeth,正式称号为Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II,其中Her Majesty是尊称,亦即“陛下”。未来查尔斯老王子荣登大宝,成了男性国王,那这个尊称就要改一改了,得称His Majesty。其他人见了“王”该怎么叫呢?当然不能直呼其名,那会有失体统,要叫Your Majesty,仅仅换个第二人称物主代词,英国人

中译英策略与方法(二)
中译英对绝大多数的译员来说都是A-B翻译,即译入外语。A-B翻译产生的问题,实际上相当一部分是对母语本身的特点理解不深刻而造成的。就中译英来说,翻译的时候受中文词汇或结构影响,理解表面化,因此英文较多地出现形式上的对应。如果译员本身的英文语法概念或语感不强,便难以发现问题,从而出现错误。 我们先说一说中文动词的特点。动词是一个词类,一般表达动作或者状态。但是非常有意思的是,中文同一个动词,词形不

《习近平谈治国理政》隐喻英译技巧鉴赏
《习近平谈治国理政》是新时代中国特色社会主义思想结晶,作为典型的国家文本,是国家政治话语体系的集中表达。该书常通过形象化、隐喻性的语言表达深刻的政治意涵。下文以该书隐喻的翻译为例,分析译文传达源语意蕴的技巧。 1. 直译。如隐喻在源语文化和目的语文化中“所指”相同,内涵一致,可直接将原文隐喻植入译文,兼顾内涵传达和形象再现。 例:我们要顺应人民呼声,接过历史接力棒,继续在和平与发展的马拉松跑道

台风不识字,吹我乱翻书
从我记事起,每年夏天,上海都是喜欢“狼来了”台风的——请允许一个语言文字的爱好者把“狼来了”这一整句话,临时当及物动词使用。 “狼来了”喊归喊,三十多年,也没真来过几次。几年前,市面上流传起一种玄学的解释,说魔都有“结界”,低段位的台风来了也会给弹开。 英文里,“台风”叫typhoon。这是很多初学英语的朋友津津乐道的。他们高兴地看到,汉语对英语做出了狂飙突进的贡献。 查《梅里厄姆—韦伯斯特

翻译的出路
问:老师认为做翻译(或者说做文学翻译)以后的出路在哪里?希望老师分享一下自己的翻译历程。 答:仅就一般翻译来说,它应该是语言学习的一部分,所以出路不出路的没什么关系,决定学外语的人都应学点翻译。如果讲专业翻译,我看需要考虑两点,一是机器翻译这个因素,二是文学翻译到底是“谁的菜”这个问题。 首先要分清两类文本,翻译过程中,译者的决策主要靠自己做还是事先已由别人做出(choices from wi

美国“最佳证据原则”的司法解释初探
在美国证据法的发展过程中,“最佳证据原则”占据着重要地位。该原则起源于18世纪。在Omychund v. Barker案中,Harwicke勋爵表示,除非“在案件性质允许的最佳范围内”,否则任何证据均不可接受。在证据法学史上,英国的吉尔伯特(Geoffrey Gilbert)是第一位试图以一种融贯理论来阐释证据法的学者,他极力主张将证据规则以一个单一原则——“最佳证据原则”加以统摄。1本文简要介绍
