15、he world.（意译）直译与意译相互关联，互为补充，两种译法可以并用二、汉译英的基本技巧1.增词为了充分传达原文含义，必须增补词语，以求达意.北京是中国的政治、文化中心。这里你可以游览万里长城、故宫、颐和园等。Beijing is a political and cultural center that offers some scenic attractions:the Great Wall,the Forbidden City,the Summer Palace etc.1.我不觉得用英语与外国人交谈有什么困难。I dont think it difficult to speak to

16、 a foreigner in English.2.虚心使人进步，骄傲使人落后。Modesty helps one to go forward,whereas conceit makes on lag behind.Practice Please.2.减词:汉语喜欢重复，英语崇尚简洁。汉语的重复作为一种汉语喜欢重复，英语崇尚简洁。汉语的重复作为一种修辞手段有两种作用。一是为了强调，重复表达一个修辞手段有两种作用。一是为了强调，重复表达一个意思，或增添修饰语，加强语气。二是为了便于词语意思，或增添修饰语，加强语气。二是为了便于词语搭配，或平衡节奏，增加可读性。这些在汉语里习以搭配，或平衡节奏，增

17、加可读性。这些在汉语里习以为常的重复词语或句式，到了英语里要么不合逻辑，为常的重复词语或句式，到了英语里要么不合逻辑，要么累赘冗长。所以翻译时都要有所删减省略。要么累赘冗长。所以翻译时都要有所删减省略。这是革命的春天，这是人民的春天，这是科学的春天！让我们张开双臂，热烈拥抱这个春天吧！Let us stretch out our arms to embrace the spring,which is one of the revolution,of the people,and of science.见到自己的故乡，他想起了童年的情景。The sight of his native place

18、 called back his childhood.他连续讲了两小时的法语，没有出现任何错误。He has been speaking in French for two hours without any mistakes.长嗟短叹 sighing deeply 发号施令 issue orders 土崩瓦解 fall apart 两面三刀 two-faced tacticsPractice Please.情景没有出现省名词(省动词)3.词类转换词词类类变变形形和和转转换换，是是英英语语语语言言的的一一个个很很重重要要的的特特点点，尤尤其其是是名名词词、动动词词、形形容容词词这这三三种种最最

19、主主要要的的词类。词类。eg.eg.他的演讲给我们的他的演讲给我们的印象印象很深。很深。His speech His speech impressedimpressed us deeply.(us deeply.(名词变动词名词变动词)eg.eg.你说他傻不你说他傻不傻傻？DonDont t you you think think he he is is an an idiotidiot?(形形容容词词变变名词名词)4.语态转换在英汉两种语言当中都有主动和被动两种语态。在英语中被动语态的使用频率要远远高于汉语。如果一味按照汉语原句的语态来翻译，会使译文显得十分别扭。这个小男孩在放学回家的路上受

20、了伤。The little boy was hurt on his way home from school.门锁好了。The door has been locked up.新教材在印刷中。New textbooks are being printed.5.分译&合译分译：需要分译的句子多数是长句，或者是结构复杂的复句。这种句子如果译成一个长句，就会使译文冗长、累赘、意思表达不清楚，也不符合英文习惯。如果采用分译，则会使译文简洁、易懂、层次分明。(按内容层次分译)少年是一去不复返的，等到精力衰竭时，要做学问也来不及了。Youth will soon be gone，never to retu

21、rn.And it will be too late for you to go into scholarship when in your declining years.她隔窗望去，突然发现有只小船停泊在河边，船里有位船夫睡得正香。Looking through the window,she suddenly spotted a boat moored to the bank.In it there was a boatman fast asleep.(按内容层次分译)(从主语变换处分译)合译：相较于汉语而言，英语长句多，因此在翻译中，要把汉语的两个或多个句子合译为英语的一句，使译文紧凑、

22、简练。对我来说，我的水族箱就像我自己的一个小王国。我就是里面的国王。To me my aquarium is like my own little kingdom where I am king.第二天，我又接到一个电报。这个电报有34个字，比前一个电报说得更详细。The following day I received another telegram consisting of 34 ciphers,giving more details.从主语变换处合译按内容连贯合译6.正、反表达翻译I.汉语从反面表达，译文从正面表达他提出的论据相当不充实。The argument he put for

23、ward is pretty thin.他七十岁了，可是并不显老。He was 70,but he carried his years lightly.II.汉语从正面表达，译文从反面表达她来得正是时候。She couldnt have come at a better time.对于汉译英，你越细心越好。You can never be too careful about Chinese-English translation.7.变序 从译文的行文上考虑，有时需要对原文的词序作一番调整，以适应英文的修辞习惯，或者为了避免因结构而产生的歧义。例：到西安你可以买兵马俑、唐三彩。Unique l

24、ocal creations are available in Xian,such as the three colored glazed pottery of the Tang Dynasty and terra-cotta figures.(“兵马俑”和“唐三彩”在译文中变换了位置，是为了避免”of the Tang Dynasty”在结构上产生歧义。)PracticePractice makes makes perfect!perfect!练习 1中国将进一步发展经济、扩大开放，这对海外企业（enterprises）意味着更多的商机。改革开放以来，中国企业与海外企业一直积极开展经济技术合
