real和true
《英语同义词辨析大词典》(A Dictionary of Synonyms)说:“real一般指实体和表里一致的事物”,又说,“true指real或actual所表示的真实,但要先有一个判断真实与否的准绳,如某种模式、型号、某一类型或专门定义。”但是这样的辨析只会把事情搞得更复杂,对如何翻译“他是真正的英雄”这样一个简单的句子似乎没有什么帮助。此句可译为“He is a true hero.”有人

中译英策略与方法(二十七)
做好翻译的第一步是准确理解原文,这是翻译过程中最基本的一个步骤,但也是不容易掌握的一步,问题就是很多情况下理解止乎于表层意义,感性上理解了,但其内涵还是模糊的,容易纠结于某个词表层意思的翻译。这种情况在从母语译入外语的时候最容易出现,主要原因是对母语已经有了先入为主的印象,往往就不再仔细地琢磨其内涵,注意力会直接放在具体词语的翻译上,在感性理解的基础上进行翻译。如果外语的语感不强,感觉不到译文的不

论诗歌“理想的翻译”
要想“理想”地翻译外国诗歌,就必须准确了解外国诗歌里包含的文化以及我国的本土文化(后一种“了解”是为了避免外国诗歌译入后水土不服,让我国读者不知所云)。除此之外,还得精通外语和中文。清末洋务运动的主将马建忠博士1认为译员必须熟悉译出语和译入语,通晓其中的同异,对原文的内容和文理需了然于胸,做到心领神会,译时一气呵成;译文应与原文在意思上达到一致,令读者有如观原作之感。他在《拟设翻译书院议》中如是说

影视英语之短语和短句:听力拦路虎
英语影视剧台词中,短语、短句占有很大的比重。短语、短句字数少,上下文给出的提示有限,其中不少是习惯用法,如果再加上说话者语速快、背景噪声等因素,理解起来难度较大。 情景喜剧《老友记》(Friends)里的Joey是个还在为解决温饱问题而打拼的小演员,但女朋友倒是换得很勤。一天,在他经常光顾的咖啡店里,他遇到了前女友。前女友Angela穿了一件漂亮的连衣裙,像换了一个人似的。 Joey: You
