英文古诗词

1.无题(李商隐) 昨夜星辰昨夜风,画楼西畔桂堂东。 身无彩凤双飞翼,心有灵犀一点通。 隔座送钩春酒暖,分曹射覆蜡灯红。 嗟余听鼓应官去,走马兰台类转蓬。 For the stars, for the wind, last night we met East of cassia hall, west of bower of art. We have no wings to fly side by side. Yet One sharp arrow wounded yours and my heart. Warmer than spring wine, you hint how to bet. Burning like candle fire, I guessed truly smart. Alas, called morning drums. Stumbling on street, To duty at Royal Library, was this torn sheet. 2.观沧海(曹操) 东临碣石,以观沧海。水何澹澹,山岛竦峙。 树木丛生,百草丰茂。秋风萧瑟,洪波涌起。 日月之行,若出其中;星汉灿烂,若出其里。 幸甚至哉~歌以咏志。 The Sea I come to view the boundless ocean From Stony Hill on eastern shore. Its water rolls in rhythmic motion, And islands stand amid its roar.Tree on tree grows from peak to peak;Grass on grass looks lush far and nigh.The autumn wind blows drear and bleak; The monstrous billows surge up high.The sun by day, the moon by night Appear to rise up from the deep. The Milky Way with stars so bright Sinks down into the sea in sleep.How happy I feel at this sight! I croon this poem in delight. 3.关雎 关关雎鸠,在河之洲.窈窕淑女,君子好逑.参差荇菜,左右流之.窈窕淑女,妩媚求之.求之不得,妩媚思服.优哉游哉,辗转反侧.参差荇菜,左右采之.窈窕淑女,琴瑟友之.参差荇菜,左右毛之.窈窕淑女,钟鼓乐之. Cooing And Wooing

(完整word版)英语长难句翻译技巧及方法

英语长难句翻译技巧及方法 英汉两种语言句子的不同特点是:英语书面语长句较多;汉语一般短句较多。英语句子结构较紧,多用主人结构,英语可有各种后置修饰语(介词短语、不定式短语、动名词短语、分词短语以及从句),这些成分都是造成英语长句的原因;汉语句子结构较松,多用并列结构。有翻译经验的人们对这些特点作过形象的比喻,把英语句子结构比作“葡萄”,把汉语句子结构比作“竹节”。翻译长句时,可将英语的葡萄结构拆成汉语的竹节结构,即把成串的拆成成条的。 英汉两种语言的语序差异是:英语时间顺序灵活(表示时间的从句可以在主句之前或之后);汉语一般是从先到后。英语逻辑顺序也比较灵活(表示原因、条件的从句可以在主句之前或之后);汉语一般是前因后果,先进条年,后谈结果。英语中的句词性从句(主语从句、表语从句、宾语从句、同位语从句)与汉语句子主谓宾的语序基本一致,因此,一般都可按汉语的表达方式处理。 顺序法 如果英语长句的时间顺序、逻辑顺序以及名词性从句与汉语句子的语序基本相似,一般可按原文顺序译:如: 本句时间状语从句在前,用顺序法译。 (1)As it was a fine day and I was in no hurry, I was taking my time, looking in shop windows, strolling in the park, and sometimes just stopping and looking around me. 由于天气晴朗,当时又无急事,我便慢悠悠看看橱窗,逛逛公园。有时干脆停下脚步,四处张望。 逆序法 如果英语长句的时间顺序、逻辑顺序与汉语句子的语序相反,一般可逆原文顺序译。如: (2)“Neither believe nor reject anything,” he wrote to his nephew, “because any other person has rejected or believed it ……”他在给侄子的信中写道:“不要因为别的人相信或拒绝了什么东西,你也就去相信它或拒绝它。……” 分译法 由于的英语可有各种后置修饰语,所以有些英语句子很长。为了符合汉语表达习惯,我们常可将长句中的一连患后置修饰语与其修饰成分分开来译,即把短语或从句拆译为短句,有时还需将后置修饰语另作适当安排并适当增加词语。如: (1)A physically mature female deer in good condition who has conceived in November and given birth to two fawns during the end of May or first part of June, must search for food for the necessary energy not only to meet her body’s needs but also to pro duce milk for her fawns. 一只成熟健壮的母鹿,在十一月份怀胎,五月底或六月初生下两只幼鹿,这时,他必须寻找食物以获得必要的能量,这不仅是为了满足自身的需要,而且也是为了给幼鹿生产乳汁。

中文诗歌翻译

悦耳悦目,现场见效 ——漫谈涉外活动诗词佳句汉英翻译的现场效果 吴伟雄(云浮市外事侨务局,广东省云浮市行政中心,527300) [内容提要]本文根据“翻译的目的不同,读者的对象不同,翻译所遵循的标准和运用的方法应有所不同”的原则以及著名诗人和诗词翻译家的诗论和译诗理论,结合作者的翻译实践,认为:涉外活动中诗词佳句的汉英翻译,在忠实于原文的基础上,必须使译品产生感染力强的“现场效果”;为此,则要使译品产生使人喜闻的“悦耳效果”、使人乐见的“悦目效果”、使人意会的“意似效果”或使人神会的“神似效果”。在涉外工作的现场交流中,诗词佳句的汉英翻译,不但必须要做,而且可以逐步提高质量,译出比较满意的诗文来。 [关键词] 译诗理论; 翻译实践;涉外活动;现场效果;悦耳;悦目;意似;神似 写诗不易,译诗更难。在涉外工作的现场交流活动中,诗词佳句的英译,却不能回避。郭建中教授在陈刚《西湖诗赞》的《序》中说:“译诗之难,尽人皆知;其中译古诗尤难。但是,翻译的目的不同,读者的对象不同,翻译所遵循的标准和运用的方法应有所不同。陈刚同志的译文,主要是供导游给游客介绍景点时用的,其译诗读起来必须琅琅上口,一听就懂,但又不失诗词之美”。 毛泽东说,诗要“精练、大体整齐,押韵。”鲁迅提倡:“新诗先要有节调、押大致相近的韵,给大家容易记,又顺口,唱得出来。”著名的诗词翻译家许渊冲认为,毛泽东和鲁迅对写诗的要求,“不但是写诗,译诗也该如此。” 领会伟人名家的诗论和译诗论,结合本人的翻译实践(以下译例,除注明外,均为笔者试译),我体会到:涉外活动中诗词佳句的英译,必须使译品产生感染力的强的“现场效果”。为此,则要使译品产生使人喜闻的“悦耳效果”,使人乐见的“悦目效果”,使人意会的“意似效果”或使人神会的“神似效果” 。 1 感染力强的现场效果 这是诗词佳句翻译的总体要求。我们译诗,是让别人看,让别人听的,如果没有现场效果,就达不到现场交流的目的。陈刚教授的古诗英译,就从英语导游的实用角度出发,“在翻译西湖古诗时,不拘泥于所选的诗词所涉及的具体背景,而在忠实于原文的基础上,注重…当场见效?的口译效果,即力求译文口语化,有韵脚,有节奏感,读来上口,听来易懂,象是诗词”。 苏东坡赞美杭州西湖,诗曰:“水光潋滟晴方好,山色空朦雨亦奇;欲把西湖比西子,淡妆浓抹总相宜。”陈刚接待来自美国夏威夷的旅行团时,朗诵了他预先译好的这首名诗: The shimmering ripples delight the eye on sunny days; The dimming hills present a rare view in rainy haze. West Lake may be compared to Beauty Xi Zi at her best, It becomes her to be richly adorned or plainly dressed. 译诗刚诵完,就引来掌声和赞语:“太好了!”“真美!”“这是我们此次中国之行听到的唯一的一首中国诗。”客人获得美的享受,导游本人也获得前所未有的快乐。 笔者也有多次“现场效果”的体验。1990年,我陪同美中友协的伯顿先生到广东肇庆的鼎湖山参观。导游

诗词翻译赏析

代赠 唐代:李商隐 楼上黄昏欲望休,玉梯横绝月中钩。 芭蕉不展丁香结,同向春风各自愁。 作品赏析 这是一首描写女子思念情人的诗作,诗中的女子,深居高楼,黄昏时分,她因百般无聊赖而思念起情人来了。对其思念越浓,就越渴望和他相见,恨不得他立刻出现在楼前,她按耐不住自己焦急的心情,走到楼头前,想去眺望远处,看看他来了没有。可是又蓦然想到他必定来不了,他怎么知道自己在思念他呢?就算知道又如何能这么快就来到跟前呢?她只得止步,折回楼内,欲望还休,欲见而无法相见,这种复杂的心情折磨得她坐立难安,满楼徘徊。此句把女子复杂矛盾的心理和孤寂无聊的失望情态完全表现出来了。 楼上黄昏欲望休,玉梯横绝月如钩 “楼上黄昏”,点明时间是薄暮时分,地点是在高楼之上。在中国古代诗词作品里,这样的环境有很强的暗示性,往往用来点染离愁与相思。如李白的“瞑色入高楼,有人楼上愁”,就是在这样一种意境中展开。主人公在黄昏时分登上高楼,想凭栏远眺,最终却凄然作罢。“欲望休”一本作“望欲休”。“休”,即停止、罢休之意。为什么欲望还休呢?答案隐藏在下一句里。 “玉梯”,楼梯、阶梯的美称。“横绝”,即横度。南朝诗人江淹《倡妇自悲赋》写汉宫佳人失宠独居,有“青苔积兮银阁涩,网罗生兮玉梯虚”之句。“玉梯虚”是说玉梯虚设,无人来登。此诗的“玉梯横绝”,是说玉梯横断,无由得上,喻指情人被阻,不能来此相会。原来,主人公渴望见到心上人,情不自禁地要上楼眺望;突然想到他不能前来,于是停下了脚步。唉,不望也罢,免得再添一段新愁。就在这迟疑进退间,天上一弯新月洒下淡淡的清辉,将她的无限思念与失望投射在孤寂的身影中。“月如钩”,一作“月中钩”,不仅烘托了环境的寂寞与凄清,还有象征意义:月儿的缺而不圆,就像是一对情人的不得会合。 芭蕉不展丁香结,同向春风各自愁 "春风"反衬了"愁"。愁人眼里无春色,抬头望月,新月如钩。低头近观,只见芭蕉树的蕉心还未舒展,丁香树上尽是缄结不开的花蕾;它们共同对着黄昏时清冷的春风,各自含愁不解。这既是主人公眼前实景的描绘,同时又是借物写人,以芭蕉喻情人,以丁香喻女子自己,隐喻二人异地同心,都在为不得与对方相会而愁苦。 芭蕉未展、丁香未开本是客观的自然景物,无所谓愁,但在主人公眼里却是满目哀愁。这是因为心中有愁,所以蕉叶难以舒展;满腹是恨,故而花瓣怨结难开。人之愁极,故而触目伤情,而触目之悲更添离人之恨。这两句诗移情入景,借景写情,设喻精巧,融比兴象征为一体。 诗人用不展的芭蕉和固结的丁香来比喻愁绪,不仅使得抽象的情感变得可见可感、具体形象,更使得这种比况具有某种象征的意味。不展的芭蕉与固结的丁香,不仅是主人公愁绪的触发物;作为诗歌的意象,又成为其愁思的载体和象征。 这两句意境优美,音情摇曳,把“一种相思,两处闲愁”的两地徘徊表现得兴味悠长,多少情思尽在其中。清人陆鸣皋说:“妙在‘同’,又妙在‘各自’,他人累言不能尽者,此以一语蔽之。”赞叹的就是这两句诗的含韵不尽。
