最常见的10种中国式英语错误,你中招了没?

成龙的“Long time no see.”戏剧性地将中国式英语带上了世界的舞台;后起之秀“no zuo no die.”光荣地被美国在线俚语词典收录。越来越多的中国式英语慢慢被世界人民所接受,但这却并不代表所有的中国式英语都将成为一种潮流。今天,我们就来研究一下10个最典型的中国式英语错误吧~

1. 我没有经验。

误:I have no experience.

正:I don't know much about that.

提示:I have no experience这句话听起来古里古怪,因为您只需要说那方面我懂得不多,或者这方面我不在行,就行了:I am not really an expert in this area.

2. 现在几点钟了?

误:What time is it now?

正:What time is it, please?

提示:What time is it now是一个直接从汉语翻译过的句子,讲英语的时候没有必要说now,因为您不可能问what time was it yesterday, 或者what time is it tommorow?所以符合英语习惯的说法是:请问现在几点了?还有一种说法是:How are we doing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适。

3. 明天我有事情要做。

误:I have something to do tomorrow.

正:I am tied up all day tomorrow.

提示:用I have something to do来表示您很忙,这也完全是中国式的说法。因为每时每刻我们都有事情要做,躺在那里睡大觉也是事情。所以您可以说我很忙,脱不开身:I'm tied up.还有其他的说法:I can't make it at that time. I'd love to, but I can't, I have to stay at home.

4. 我的英语很糟糕。

误:My English is poor.

正:I am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving.

提示:有人开玩笑说,全中国人最擅长的一句英文是:My English is poor. 外国人遇到自己外语不好的情况,他们会说: I am still having a few problem, but I am getting better.

5. 你是做什么工作的呢?

误:What's your job?

正:Are you working at the moment?

提示:what's your job这种说法难道也有毛病吗?是的。因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业,如此直接的问法会让对方有失面子,所以您要问:目前您是在上班吗?Are you working at the moment?接下来您才问:目前您在哪儿工作呢?Where are you working these days?或者您从事哪个行业呢?What line of work are you in?

6. 我没有英文名。

误:I haven't English name.

正:I don't have an English name.

提示:许多人讲英语犯这样的错误,从语法角度来分析,可能是语法功底欠缺,因为have在这里是实义动词,而并不是在现在完成时里面那个没有意义的助动词。所以,这句话由肯定句变成否定句要加助动词。明白道理是一回事,习惯是另一回事,请您再说几话:我没有钱;I don't have any money.我没有兄弟姐妹;I don't have any brothers or sisters.我没有车。I don't have a car.

7. 这个价格对我挺合适的。

误:The price is very suitable for me.

正:The price is right.

提示:suitable(合适的、相配的)最常见的用法是以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上,如:下列节目儿童不宜。The following programme is not suitable for children. 这句话用后面的说法会更合适。

8. 用英语怎么说?

误:How to say?

正:How do you say this in English?

提示:How to say是在中国最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一,这绝不是地道的英语说法。同样的句子有:请问这个词如何拼写?How do you spell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word?

9. 我想我不行。

误:I think I can't.

正:I don't think I can.

提示:汉语里说“我想我不会”的时候,英语里面总是说“我不认为我会”。以后您在说类似的英语句子的时候,只要留心,也会习惯英语的表达习惯的。

10. 你愿意参加我们的晚会吗?

误:Would you like to join our party on Friday?

正:Would you like to come to our party on Friday night?

提示:join往往是指参加俱乐部或者协会,如:join a health club; join the Communist Party.事实上,常常与party搭配的动词是come 或者go。如go a wild party,或者come to a Christmas Party。

中国式英语虽然在日益壮大,并且我们也热切希望它能将中国的文化精髓贯穿到英文中去,但是,最起码的尊重还是需要有的。对于已经存在了成千上百年的英语,尊重他们的原汁原味是我们基本的礼节。就像我们不希望别人擅自修改汉语一样,我们也不该自私地去破坏它们原有的独特的味道。所以,你用对了吗?

文言文翻译十大常见典型错误汇总

文言文翻译十大常见典型错误汇总 文言文翻译在文言文阅读题里可以说是最考验技术的,下面是历年来高考生最容易犯的高考文言文翻译的十个误区 误区一:混淆古今异义 【例1】时既与梁通好,行李往来,公私赠遗,一无所受。 误译:当时已经与梁国互通友好,背着行囊送礼的,官方赠送的、私人遗留的礼品,(贺兰祥)一概都不接受。 正译:当时已经与梁国互通友好,使者往来,官方和私人赠送的礼品,(贺兰祥)一概都不接受。 分析与对策:句中的“行李”,古义为“使者”;今义是“出行时带的箱子、包裹”等。“遗”的古义为“赠予赠送的东西”,今义为“遗失、遗漏、遗留”等。 考生以今义释古义,原因是不明古义,不知古今词义不同。要解决这个问题,考生应注意以下两点: 1、积累古今异义词。一是借助教材注释识记古义,如《烛之武退秦师》中“行李之往来,供其乏困”;二是借助成语识记古义,如成语“短兵相接”的“兵”字就保留了“兵器”这个古义;三是借助复习资料上的《古今异义词简表》识记古义。 2、翻译一个词首先想到的应该是这个词的古义,除此之外还要检验这个古义放在句中是否妥帖,句意与上下文是否相符等。 误区二:词类活用分析错误 【例2】母徐衣其女衣,袖利刃行向池呼鱼。 误译:后母的衣服也就是女儿的衣服,袖子里的那把刀也向着池塘呼唤鱼儿。 正译:后母慢慢穿上她女儿的衣服,袖子里藏着锋利的刀子走到池塘边呼唤鱼。 分析与对策:句中的第一个“衣”,名词活用为动词,应译为“穿”;“袖”,名词活用为动词,应译为“袖子里藏着”。一般情况下,“名词名词”的结构,第一个名词往往活用为动词。 要解决这个问题,考生应注意以下两点: 1、借助复习资料熟悉名词、动词、形容词的活用类别,并能通过对活用特征的识记、比较,结合语境进行正确翻译。如,形容词意动用法,表示主语认为宾语具有这个形容词表示的性质或状态,可译为“认为……”“以……为……”;形容词的使动用法,表示主语使宾语代表的人或事物具有这个形容词所表示的性质或状态。 2、翻译语句的前提是读懂文章大意,而我们检验自己翻译正误的方法,就是将译文放到文段中去检验,使自己的翻译符合语境,合情合理。 误区三:误译文言虚词 【例3】西望夏口,东望武昌,山川相缪,郁乎苍苍,此非孟德之困于周郎者乎(苏轼《赤壁赋》) 误译:这儿向西望是夏口,向东望是武昌,山水环绕,草木茂盛苍翠,不就是曹操围困周瑜的地方吗 正译:向西望是夏口,向东望是武昌,山水环绕,草木茂盛苍翠,这里不就是曹操被周瑜围困(打败)的地方吗 分析与对策:“困于周郎”中的“于”字,表示被动关系,译为“被”,考生的忽视造成被动者“曹操”成了主动者。同学们要注意积累“其、之、以、而、乃、乎”等《考试大纲》规定的十八个常用虚词的多种用法,根据句意,准确翻译。 误区四:漏译省略成分 【例4】但以浓墨洒作巨点,淋漓满纸。郭异之,持以白王。 误译:只是用浓墨洒作大墨点,满纸都是。郭生对此感到奇怪,拿着纸来告诉王生。 正译:(狐狸)只是用浓墨洒作大墨点,(弄得)满纸都是。郭生对此感到奇怪,拿着纸来告诉

英语作文常见错误(病句)

英语作文常见错误(病句) 一、不一致(Disagreements) 所谓不一致不光指主谓不一致,它还包括了数的不一致时态不一致及代词不一致等。 例1. When one have money ,he can do what he want to . (人一旦有了钱,他就能想干什么就干什么。) 剖析:one是单数第三人称,因而本句的have应改为has ;同理,want应改为wants.本句是典型的主谓不一致。 改为:Once one has money ,he can do what he wants (to do) 二、修饰语错位(Misplaced Modifiers) 英语与汉语不同,同一个修饰语置于句子不同的位置,句子的含义可能引起变化。对于这一点中国学生往往没有引起足够的重视,因而造成了不必要的误解。 例1. I believe I can do it well and I will better know the world outside the campus. 剖析:better位置不当,应置于句末。 三、句子不完整(Sentence Fragments) 在口语中,交际双方可借助手势语气上下文等,不完整的句子完全可以被理解。可是书面语就不同了,句子结构不完整会令

意思表达不清,这种情况常常发生在主句写完以后,笔者又想加些补充说明时发生。 例1. There are many ways to know the society. For example by TV ,radio ,newspaper and so on . 剖析:本句后半部分”for example by TV ,radio ,newspaper and so on .”不是一个完整的句子,仅为一些不连贯的词语,不能独立成句。 改为:There are many ways to know society ,for example ,by TV ,radio ,and newspaper. 四、悬垂修饰语(Dangling Modifiers) 所谓悬垂修饰语是指句首的短语与后面句子的逻辑关系混乱不清。例如:At the age of ten,my grandfather died. 这句中”at the age of ten”只点出十岁时,但没有说明” 谁”十岁时。按一般推理不可能是my grandfather,如果我们把这个悬垂修饰语改明确一点,全句就不那么费解了。 改为: When I was ten,my grandfather died. 例1. To do well in college,good grades are essential. 剖析:句中不定式短语“to do well in college” 的逻辑主语不清楚。 改为: To do well in college,a student needs good grades.

翻译中常见的错误

翻译中常见的错误 翻译是一问遗憾的学问,经常会出错。聪明的人在于不断总结经验教训,减少错误。误译的原因很多,主要是对原文理解不够透彻、缺乏译入语的表达能力和手段、拘泥于原文的框框筹。下面试分析几个导致误译的主要原因。 一、不理解导致误译 英语有些句子、词组有其固定含义,其含义与字词的本身意思有关系,但不一定都一致。翻译这类词,要知道其来源和含义。如果不知道、不理解,又不认真查考,光凭想当然、按字面意思猜测,就难免要误译。如:The world arms bazzar is a Rubik’s Cube of complex and shifting relationships and one of the world’s largest business. 初译:世界军火市场虽然像鲁比克的骰子一样错综复杂、变幻不定,都是世界上最大的买卖之一。 Rubik's Cube,是匈牙利人鲁比克发明的魔方,在这里用来形容军火市场上的复杂和多变。初译者不了解这个词组的含义,按字面直译,译得不够准确。可译为:世界上军火市场像魔方一样错综复杂、变幻不定,而且是世弄上最大的买卖之一。 二、人称、数的不一致 例1、独立后,贵国不断探索适合本国国情的发展道路,政治稳定、经济发展、社会进步。 初译:Never ceasing the efforts to explore a road to development suited to your national conditions after winning independence, your country has enjoyed political stability, economic growth and social progress. “Your country”应该被看成单数第三人称,因此用“your”这个第二人称所有格代词是不对的,应改为its.

常见英文合同翻译与详解

引子:鉴于现在对外交流事例逐渐增多,英文合同特别是经济合同的翻译愈显重要,若译文不准确或不严谨,势必会引起不必要的经济纠纷.故今以一英文(经济)合同写作书籍为蓝本,录入一些有益文字,希望大家共同提高英文(经济)合同的翻译和写作。 合同文件是合同双方签订并必须遵守的法律文件,因此合同中的语言应体现其权威性.英文合同用语的特点之一就表现在用词上,即选择那些法律用词,以及正式用词,使合同表达的意思准确无误,达到双方对合同中使用的词无可争议的程度。 一.hereby 英文释义:by means of , by reason of this 中文译词:特此,因此,兹 用法:常用于法律文件、合同、协议书等正式文件的开头语;在条款中需要强调时也可用。 语法:一般置于主语后,紧邻主语. 例1: The Employer hereby covenants to pay the Contractor in consideration of the execution and co mpletion of the Works and the remedying of defects therein the Contract Price or such other s um as may become payable under the provisions of the Contract at the time and in the manne r prescribed by the Contract. 参考译文: 业主特此立约保证在合同规定的期限内,按合同规定的方式向承包人支付合同价,或合同规定的其它应支付的款项,以作为本工程施工、竣工及修补工程中缺陷的报酬。 注释: (1)hereby: by reason of this 特此 (2)covenant: v. make a formal agreement 立约,签订合同、条约; n. legal agreement具有法律约束的正式合同 (3)completion of the Works: 工程的竣工 (4)therein: in the Works在本工程中 (5)the Contract Price: 合同总价,指工程的总造价 (6)such...as: 关系代词,相当于that, which (7)under: in accordance with 根据,按照 (8)the provisions of the Contract: terms and conditions of the Contract合同条款 例2: We hereby certify to the best of our knowledge that the foregoing statement is true and correc t and all available information and data have been supplied herein, and that we agree to provi de documentary proof upon your request. 注释: (1)hereby:特此 (2)to the best of our knowledge:as far as we know据我们所知 (3)foregoing statement:above-mentioned statement上述声明 (4)herein:in this, in the statement在声明中 (5)documentary proof:证明文件 参考译文: 特此证明,据我们所知,上述声明内容真实,正确无误,并提供了全部现有的资料和数据,我们同意,

英语写作常见错误分析

大学英语四六级应试技巧写作篇(英语写作常见错误分析) 检查主要针对四个重点部位:1)是否切题它又分三个层面: 一是整篇文章内容是否切合文章标题要求; 二是段落主题句的内容是否与各段落提示句内容相一致; 三是段落内部的内容是否与段落主题句的表达相一致。如果发现任何一个层面不切题,应尽可能弥补,删除那些多余的或不切题的地方;增添残缺的、语义表达不足的地方。由于时间所限,删的内容一定要精,要切中要害,切忌动“大手术”。 2)是否连贯检查上下文是否连贯,句子衔接是否自然流畅,检验的标准主要是句子是否通顺,该用连接词的地方用了没有,以及所用的连接词是否合适。 3)是否有语法错误主谓是否一致,动词的时态、语态、语气的使用是否正确,词组的搭配是否合乎习惯。为避免不必要的语法错误,对把握性不大的词组、句型绝不要用。而应使用那些自己熟悉的词组、句型来表达相同或相近的意思。 4)是否有大小写、拼写、标点错误在这些细枝末节上,谨慎细心地处理,无疑会进一步提高文章的整体质量。在检查、改错的过程中,切忌乱涂乱抹。保持卷面清洁,无疑会给阅卷者留下好印象。英语写作常见错误 一、不按提纲写/ 不切题 一、不切题英汉不同的语篇思维模式是造成不切题的直接原因。一些外国人认为东方人写作善用迂回法,也就是总绕着主题的外围转,而不从主题入手展开讨论。汉语语篇的思维模式是中国历史文化的产物,人们认为这种方式含蓄、委婉,容易使人接受,而英美人则喜欢开门见山的叙述主题;所以我国学生进行英语写作时,由于受汉语语篇思维模式的影响,阐述时不从主题入手,不能紧扣主题进行写作,致使文章主题不明确,观点不够鲜明。我们来看一篇以"Trees"为题目的作文:Trees are man's friends. 1. We can see trees everywhere. 2. We plant trees every year. 3. We can make tables with trees. 4. Trees also give us fruits to eat. 5. I like to eat fruits very much. 再来看改写后的段落:Trees are man’s friends.1.They provide man with timber, fruits and seeds. With timber, man can build houses and make furniture. 2. Fruits are the food, which is necessary to us every day. 3. As for seeds, they can be used to extract oil. 这样就克服了前面所犯错误,紧紧围绕了主题句来展开,算是一篇好的作文。 二、语言表达的错误 从题目或给出的关键词中照搬,不注意单词在句中所做的成分及大小写 忽视第三人称单数 忽视被动语态的用法 三、语言表达的错误重点分析。 1.句子结构混乱,出现句子不完整或句子成分多余2.词性误用3.主谓不一致 4.根据中文逐字硬译5. 名词可数与不可数的误用 6.介词to和不定式符号的混淆7 .动宾搭配不当 8. 词组搭配错误 9.综合性语言错误: 有诸如时态,语态,标点符号,大小写等方面的错误 1.句子结构混乱,出现句子不完整或句子成分多余。句子不完整(Sentence Fragments)在口语中,交际双方可借助手势语气上下文等,不完整的句子完全可以被理解.可是书面语就不同了,句子结构不完整会令意思表达不清,这种情况常常发生在主句写完以后,笔者又想加些补充说明时发生. 例1.There are large number of people die from the disasters.

When you leave car, please turn off door and window, take your valuab le object = Be sure to lock your doors and windows and take all valuables with you.

高中英语作文中常见的100个错误,必须避免(下)

高中英语作文中常见的100个错误,必须避免!(下) 十、非谓语动词 57. We are going to talk about the problem discussing at the last meeting.此处为分词作定语,问题应该被讨论,所以把discussing改为discussed。58. The girl dressed herself in red is my sister. dress为及物动词,意为“给...…穿衣服”,此处为分词作定语修饰girl, girl 与dress是被动关系,因此把herself去掉。 59. Being seriously ill, his classmates sent him to hospital. 分词作状语时,其逻辑主语为这句话的主语,此句应为“因为他病了,他的同学才把他送到医院去”,因此把前半句改为:He being seriously ill. 60. Having not seen her for many years, we could hardly recognize her. 现在分词的否定应把not放在现在分词前面,所以前半句应改为:Not having seen her for many years. 61. Seeing from the space, the earth looks like a ball. 分词作状语,其逻辑主语应是这句话的主语,此句中地球应该被看,所以把Seeing 改为Seen。 62. English is easy to learn it. 此句中是不定式作原因状语修饰easy, English应该是learn的逻辑宾语,所以把it去掉。 63. I will get somebody repair the recorder for you. “让某人做某事”可以有以下几种表达法:make sb do sth; have sb do sth; get sb to sth. 因此在repair 前加to。

商务英语应用中常见的用词翻译错误实例解析

商务英语应用中常见的用词翻译错误实例解析 笔者在商务英语教学中发现,外贸英语中有一些使用十分频繁的词汇很容易被误译,原因是商务英语中相同的单词在不同情况下有不同的含义。现将这些单词的不同用法和含义试加比较说明。 例一:floating that the world saw a return to exchange rate system. Central banks were no longerrequired support their own currencies. Floating policy is of greatimportance for export trade;it is, in fact, a convenient methodof insuring goods where a numberof similar export transactions are intended, e.g. where the insured has to supply an overseasimporterunder an exclusive sales agreement or maintains sales subsidiary companies abroad. 译文:在这种情况下,世界各国又恢复浮动汇率就不足为奇了。各国中央银行也就无须维持本币 的汇价了。 统保单对出口贸易至关重要。它实际上是货物保险中的一种便利的办法,特别适合于分不同的时间出口的一批类似货物, 如,当被保险方根据独家代理协书向国外的进口方供货,或在国外委任了销售代表,设立分支机构时用之。 注解:floating 在上述两个句中的意思完全不一样,floating exchange rate 意为“浮动汇率”,即可自由浮动,完全受市场力量决定的汇率制度。而floating policy 则指用以承保多批次货运的一种持续性长期保险凭证,常译为“统保单”。 例二:confirm Wed like to inform you that our counter sample will be sent to you by DHL by the end of this week and please confirm it ASAP so that we can start our mass production. Payment will be made by 100% confirmed, irrevocable Letter of available by sight draft。

英语四级写作常见错误汇总

英语四级写作常见错误汇总 大学英语写作是检验大学生英语实际运用能力的一种重要方法,是衡量大学生英语综合水平和应用能力的一个重要指标,也是大学英语四级考试的一个重要内容。但从全国大学英语四级考试的情况来看,学生写作部分的平均得分率一直最低。这反映出大学生英语写作能力相对薄弱。从某种程度上来看,这一现象归因于两个主要因素:1. 学生英语写作能力的开发滞后;2. 学生写作能力出现石化现象。这两种主要症状清晰地反映在学生的作文中。 1. 单词拼写错误 例1. (误) I am writting a letter in reply to you. (正) I am writing a letter in reply to you. 例2. (误) You said you wanted to come to my colege. (正) You said you wanted to come to my college. 例3. (误) You must have some probelems. (正) You must have some problems. 例句1 是字母添加错误,即把不该双写的字母双写了;而例句2 是字母减略错误,即把双写的字母拼写成单写;例句3 是典型的语音变异型错误,为加音错误。这些错误均发生在单词的非重读音节中,这说明音响的强度对单词的拼写有相当程度的影响。 2. 时态方面的错误 写议论文一般用现在时态。只有举例,提到过去的事才会用

到过去时。 3 主谓,人称等违反一致性方面的错误 写一个句子,乃至一篇文章里人称始终要保持一致,不能一会儿用第三人称,一会儿又用第一人称。 4 修饰语的位置错误 a) Without television, people cant get information which comes from other parts of the world immediately. Immediately既可以修饰comes:得到迅速从各方面传来的消息,也可以修饰get:迅速得到从各方面传来的消息,意思含糊不清,所以要把它放到cant的后面。 b) To participate in class discussion, a lot of books have to be read. 不定式短语的逻辑主语决不是o lot of books,为了把逻辑关系表达清楚,要么把不定式短语改成If one wants to participate in class discussion,要么把主句改成you have to read a lot of books。 5. 语法结构平行方面的错误 a) With the computer, one can do shopping, banking, and read at home. 用语法平行结构原则来衡量。前面用ing 形式,最后一个用动词原形read是不妥的,为了和do shopping, do banking保持结构上平行,接下来的一个内容要用reading。 b) Participating in class discussion is not only good for the
