13、y go through many procedures to translate the text to make it acceptable for the specific communicative situation. The translating process is explained as follows:Translation is not the transcoding of words or sentences from one language to another, but a complex form of action, whereby someone prov
14、ides 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. (Snell-Hornby 82) According to the explanation, in translating, a translators task is to convey the content and
15、 spirit of the source text and rearrange them into the target text in a smooth and logical way under the new specific situations and conditions. Additionally, we should remember that “a natural style in translating is nevertheless essential to producing in the ultimate receptors a response similar t
16、o that of the original receptors” (Ma and Miao 17). Therefore, effective translation methods and techniques are undoubtedly indispensable in translating activities. Conversion, as a grammatical phenomenon, has been a hot subject in the field of linguistic research. Since source language and target l
17、anguage are quite different in nature and use, and the target text should convey the meaning of the source text in the closest natural manner, conversion becomes one of the most effective techniques to seek in the target language the equivalent information of the source language.A clear and correct
18、expression of the source text is what really matters in translation, for it is crucial in translation to seek equivalence in content or information, but not absolute formal correspondence. “For most people the informative function is predominantly the major role of language” (Hu 10). A good translat

20、e it enables translators to achieve a natural and faithful translation which not only offers information of the source text but also keeps with the expression habits of the target language. In this way, contents of both source language and target language are in accordance with each other, though fo
21、rms may be somewhat changed.The thesis argues that, because of the great differences between English and Chinese in grammar and expression style, conversion becomes a frequently-used translation technique, which enables translators to achieve a natural, fluent and accurate translation. In addition t
22、o Introduction and Conclusion, the thesis consists of three parts. The first chapter discusses the conversion of word classes in English-Chinese (E-C) translation. The second chapter focuses on the conversion of sentence components, which is usually caused by the conversion of word classes. The thir
