4、house,which we bought last month,is very nice.这幢房子很美丽，是我们上个月买的。（非限制性）当先行词是专出名词或物主代词和指示代词所修饰时，其后的定语从句通常是非限制性的，例如：Charles Smith,who was my former teacher,retired last year.查理史密斯去年退休了，他曾经是我的老师。My house,which I bought last year,has got a lovely garden.我去年买的的那幢房子带着个美丽的花园。This novel,which I have read thre

5、e times,is very touching.这本小说很动人，我已经读了三遍。非限制性定语从句还能将整个主句作为先行词,对其进行修饰,这时从句谓语动词要用第三人称单数，例如：He seems not to have grasped what I meant,which greatly upsets me.他似乎没抓住我的意思，这使我心烦。Liquid water changes to vapor,which is called evaporation.液态水变为蒸汽，这就叫做蒸发 常用的定语从句的翻译方法一、合译法一、合译法合译法通常用于句式较短的状况，合译法通常用于句式较短的状况，主要以

6、限制性定语从句为主。主要以限制性定语从句为主。在英译汉时，一般将其译成在英译汉时，一般将其译成“的的”字结构，有时也将定语部分译成谓字结构，有时也将定语部分译成谓语、兼语句的一部分或带有语、兼语句的一部分或带有“这这”字句的简洁句。字句的简洁句。1.译成定语“的”字结构最为常见，将定语部分放在被修饰名词的前面 He is not the one who will give up easily.他不是一个轻易服输的人。Our two countries are neighbors whose friendship is of long standing.我们两国是友情长存的友好邻邦。The pe

7、ople who worked for him lived in mortal fear of him在他手下工作的人对他怕的要死。2、译成谓语当定语从句是存在句，尤其是在“there be结构”和它的变体结构、以及在“it be+主语+定语从句”的结构中，定语从句的谓语在意义上也是整个主句的谓语，可将其译为主谓结构的简洁句。There were men in that crowd who had stood there every day for a month.在那群人中，有的人每天都站在那里，站了一个月。There have been good results in the experi

8、ments that have given him grate encouragement.试验中的良好结果给了他莫大的激励。Despite the new tunnel,there are still a few people who rashly attempt to cross the pass on foot.尽管新建了隧道，有些旅行者还是企图步行穿过山口。There seems to be someone who wants to go with you.似乎有人想跟你去。There happened to be a student who was able to work out

9、the math problem.碰巧有一个学生能解出这道数学难题。另外，有些定语从句英译汉时要须要将主句压缩成另外，有些定语从句英译汉时要须要将主句压缩成主语，而将定语从句译成谓语，融合为一个句子。主语，而将定语从句译成谓语，融合为一个句子。We have a social and political system that differed in many respects from your own.我们的社会和政治体制在很多方面都与贵国的不一我们的社会和政治体制在很多方面都与贵国的不一样。样。We shall have a lot of people who will visit ou

10、r college.很多人将来参观我们学校。很多人将来参观我们学校。This is a paper mill that was built ten years ago 这家造纸厂是十年前建的。这家造纸厂是十年前建的。it.that.的句式，事实上相当于一个让步状语从句。如It is a wise mother that knows her own daughter.再聪慧的母亲也不见得了解自己的女儿。相当于一个状语从句No matter how wise a mother is,she may not know her own daughter.翻译此类定语从句应当用溶合法，即将主句和从句溶合

11、在一起翻译。例如：It is a good machine that can work without power.再好的机器也要有动力才能开动。It is a long lane that has no turning.再长的巷子也会有转弯的。3、译成兼语句的一部分、译成兼语句的一部分 当先行词在定语从句中充当主语或宾语，可接受此方法使两个分句融为一体。I need someone who can instruct me in my English study.我须要一个人来指导我学习英语。When I passed by,I saw a man who was quarreling wit

12、h his wife.当我经过时，我看到一个人和他的妻子在吵架。4、译成连动式的一部分、译成连动式的一部分 为了行文便利，须要把主句、从句中的动词连起来一起翻译，从而使句子显得连贯，符合汉语的表达习惯。He took out a bottle of wine out of his pocket,which he began to drink slowly.他从衣兜里掏出一瓶酒渐渐地喝起来。We will send the boy to Britain,where he can receive better education.我们将要把这个孩子送到英国去接受更好的教化。二、分译法分译法是指将主

13、句和从句分开翻译的一种方法，主要用于较长的非限制性定语从句里。接受这种方法可避开句子的冗长和累赘。这种方法一般接受主句在前，从句在后的翻译形式，将句子翻译成两个相对独立的小分句。1、译成、译成“这这”字句字句 有时，关系代词并不仅仅只是指代先行词，它还指代前面整个句子的内容。这时，我们一般将其译成“这”或“这一点”He admired Mrs.Brown,which surprises me most.他钦佩布朗太太，这使我大为惊异。She was very patient towards the children,which her husband seldom was.她对孩子们很耐性，她

14、丈夫却很少这样。2、译出关系代词或关系副词、译出关系代词或关系副词 依据逻辑的须要，在翻译前，首先应当弄清关系词所指代的内容，进而依据先行词的词义来进行翻译。He has learned French,which he thinks is the most beautiful language in the world.他学过法语，他认为法语是世界上最美的语言。This is a college of science and technology,the students of which are trained to be engineers or scientists.这是一所科技高校，该

15、校学生将被培育成工程师或科学工作者。另外，在英语中常常会把须要强调的内容放于句首，而汉语中却习惯把附加性说明的定语部分翻译成并列分句，以求在形式上突出主句的内容。She suddenly thought of her husband,who had left her and their children behind and had never been heard of.他丈夫早就抛弃了妻儿始终杳无音信，现在她突然想起了他。The men suddenly awakened to the fact that there were beauty and significance in thes

16、e trifles,which they had so long trodden carelessly beneath their feet.以前，它们始终被这些人漫不经心地踩在脚下，现在这些人突然意识到这些小玩意儿的美丽和意义了。3、不翻译关系代词或关系副词、不翻译关系代词或关系副词 有些定语从句表面上是非限制性定语从句，但在意义上却已经和主句融为了一体。在翻译时，应当将关系词省略，从而使句子的意思显得更为连贯。After dinner,the four key negotiators resumed their talks,which continued well into the nig

17、ht.晚饭后，四个主要谈判人物接着进行会谈，始终谈到深夜。His wife,Betty,is Shanghai-born Chinese who left China at the age of eight,and whose book“Moon”,tells of her sisters life in China.他妻子贝蒂是一位诞生在上海的华人，八岁离开中国，写过一本名叫月的书，记叙了她妹妹在中国的生活。4、用主句的主语作从句主语，译成两个小分句当主句的主语为非限制性定语从句的先行词，并且关系代词作定语从句主语时，先行词可以与非限制性定语从句溶合在一起翻译。例如：John Smith,w
