英语谚语中的修辞手法
浅析英语谚语中的修辞手法 摘要：所谓英语谚语，类似于汉语谚语，它是英语国家民间流行的简短而又具备一定劝诫意义的语句，英语谚语读起来朗朗上口，而且描述生动，非常容易把握，因此，被广泛流传下来。本文借鉴国内外对于英语谚语中的修辞手法的已有研究成果，并且通过生动的实例来继续对于英语谚语中的修辞手法进行探索。 关键词：英语谚语；修辞手法；拟人；典故；重复；首韵；讽喻一、引言 翻阅英语谚语，我们不难发现绝大多数英语谚语通过修辞手法来实现了“包装”，在音、形两个层面上都独具特色，给人的一种非常美好的感觉。通常情况下，英语谚语惯用拟人、典故、重复、首韵、讽喻等修辞手法。接下来，本文将对于英语谚语中的这些修辞手法进行详细的阐述。 二、英语谚语中的拟人修辞手法 英语谚语中的拟人修辞手法将人以外的无生命之物或有生命之 物当作人来描写，并将其写得既有人的动作，又有人的思想感情，有时也将人比作动物或事物，因此，增加了生动感和表现力。在英语谚语中的例子如下：（1）a cock is valiant on his own dunghill. 夜郎自大。（2）straws show which way the wind blows.草动知风向。通过英语谚语中的拟人修辞手法的运用，赋予某些词语不同于本义的新义，使其语言生动、形象，更具有感染力，给读者与读
者留下深刻的印象。 三、英语谚语中的典故修辞手法 所谓英语谚语中的典故修辞手法就是指，许多英语谚语是来自于一个历史事件或者名言的。在英语谚语中，许多谚语来来源于古典文学作品，更准确地说，有如下几种来源：希腊神话、圣经、伊索寓言以及文学巨匠的作品。英语国家的许多谚语都最早记录在这些古典文学作品当中，对于英语国家的文化有着深刻的影响，能够体现出典故英语谚语的丰富内涵和语言风格，同时，应该引起注意的是，这些来自英语典故的谚语的汉语翻译既要能较完整地表达其在原典故中的寓意，又要能为广大的中国读者所接受。例如：（1）an apple of discord.争斗之源；不和之因；祸根。（2）the heel of achilles 亦作the achilles’’ heel.唯一弱点；薄弱环节；要害。（3）helen of troy .直译”特洛伊的海伦”，源自源自荷马史诗iliad中的希腊神话故事。（4）between scylla and charybdis.锡拉和卡津布迪斯之间———在两个同样危险的事物之间：一个人逃出一种危险，而又落入另一种危险。（5）to meet waterloo.倒霉；受毁灭性打击；灭顶之灾。 四、英语谚语中的重复修辞手法 重复也叫反复，也就是为了强调某一个思想、突出某一种感情，对于英语谚语中的重点词、重要概念进行重复，从而吸引读者来关注，让读者能够记忆深刻。英语谚语中的重复修辞手法的恰当运用，

英文中经典谚语大集合
英文经典谚语（俗语）30例详解 老外平时除使用许多俚语（slang）外，也常夹些格言（adage）、俗语（proverb）、引语（quotation）、警句（saying）或是众所周知的道理（truism）。这些玩儿，也与中文里不少的格言或俗语等意义相近。使用起来，颇有「异曲同工」之妙。 1.Like attracts（或draws）like. 意思是：相同的人吸引相同的人。(like 指similar people）这与另一句谬语「Birds of a feather flock together.」（相同羽毛的鸟在一起）意义相似。（a=same）也就是咱们常说的「物以类聚」或「同声相应，同气相求」。 2.(Too much) familiarity breeds contempt. 意思是说：相处过於亲密，就会产生侮慢之心（不尊重）（即low opinion）（breed = create）这句话又与另一句俗语「Too thick does not stick.」（太稠或太浓反而黏不住）意思相近。也就是说：「closeness brings disagreement.」（亲不敬，熟生蔑）; 就是劝人：「君子之交淡如水」或「保持距离，以策安全」。 3.Once bitten（或bit），twice shy. 就是说：一次被咬，下次胆小。或是一次上当，下次小心。（shy = avoid）动词时态：bite, bit, bitten（或bit）这又与另一句俗语「A burnt child fears（或dreads）the fire.」（被灼伤的小孩怕火）相似。说白些，就是：When you have bad experience, you don't want to have the same experience again. 这不就是「一朝被蛇咬，见绳也心惊」或「一日被蛇咬，十年怕草绳」吗？ 4.A stitch in time save nine. 意思是：「一针及时省九针」。也是「一针不补，十针难缝」或「小洞不补，大洞叫苦」的味道。这句警语与「An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.」（一分的预防，胜於十分的治疗）意义相近。此外，还有：「Don't wait for a rainy day to fix the roof.（不要等到下雨时才去修补屋顶）; 或「Always prepare for a rainy day.」或「Prepare for the worst and hope for the best.」（做最坏的打算和最好的希望）这些警语，说的都是「未雨绸缪」。 5.Old habits die hard. 意思是说：改掉老习惯很不容易。「It is difficult to break an old habit.」这与另一句谚语：「You can not teach an old dog new tricks.」（你不能教老狗新把戏）。这就是所谓「江山易改，本性难移」。 6.Absence makes the heart grow fonder. 意思是：一个人不在时，使人内心更想念。 「When a person is absent, we may think of him／her more often.」与「久别情深」、「眼不见，心更念」、「人去情渐深」，或是「一日不见如隔三秋」的意味相近。 7.A penny saved is a penny earned. 据说这是Ben Franklin 的引语。照字面意义是：能存一分钱，就是赚了一分钱。後来有人改口说：Take care of your pennies（=pence）and the pounds (=dollars）will take care of themselves. 说白些，就是：If you save small amount of money, you will eventually have a large sum of money. 就是中国人所谓「积少成多，集腋成裘」。（这句话也可指小事谨慎，大事自成。） 8.When in Rome, do as the Romans do.意思是说：当在罗马时，就照罗马人的（生活）方式去
常用英语谚语成语
1. A cat may look at a king. [字面意思]猫也可以看国王。 [解释]无名小卒也可以评论大人物。人皆可以为尧舜。不要因为别人的资格不够老，或经不如你多，就不让他发表意见。 2. A penny saved is a penny earned. [字面意思]节省一个便士就等于挣了一个便士。 [解释]省钱是明智的做法。省一分就是赚一分。不要因为钱的数目不大就不把它当一回事瞧不起小钱是不对的，要记住A penny saved is a penny earned这条经验。 3. A watched pot never boils. [字面意思]眼睛盯着看的壶永远不会开。 [解释]事情在进行中，不到时候就不会有结果，要水到渠成才行。心急锅不开。你着急，急也没用！用眼睛盯着它看也无济于事，事情不会因为你着急就会有较快的进展。 4. A word to the wise. [字面意思]送给智者的一句话。 [解释]给明智而愿意接受别人意见或建议的人提出忠告。我知道你能听进去话，所以我才跟你这么说。我说的是正确的，对你有好处，而且我知道你也会听取我的意见。 5. All is well that ends well. [字面意思]结尾好就意味着一切都好。
[解释]结局好，一切都好。出自莎士比亚剧本名。在开始或中间环节出现的一些小的差错或麻烦无关紧要，没什么大不了的，只要最终的结局令人满意，那就是好的。 6. Bad news travels fast. [字面意思]坏消息传得快。 [解释]好事不出门，坏事传千里。 7.Beauty is only skin deep. [字面意思]美貌只是肤浅的。 [解释]美貌只是表面现象而已。以貌取人靠不住。你不能只看到她有漂亮的面孔就向她求爱，你还应该考虑其它方面的因素。找结婚伴侣是要过日子，不是当海报招贴画来看的。我的忠告是两句话：Beauty is only skin-deep. True feelings are more important. 8. Beggars can't be choosers. [字面意思]乞丐不可能有选择。 [解释]你得到的不完全是你想得到的，可能条件或质量等方面差一些，但没有再选择的余地，只能接受不十分满意的事物。这就叫Beggars can't be choosers. 9. Better safe than sorry. [字面意思]安全比遗憾好 [解释]最好不要去冒险。即使不冒险你得多费些功夫，多做些枯燥无味的工作，这都值得。总比为了省事而冒险强。变体：Better to be safe than sorry.

英语谚语俗语翻译
Part One I had only recently seen John in a restaurant. The news of his death came as a bolt from the blue She found the keys she had lost last month, which was like a bolt from the blue A bolt from the blue Meaning：A complete surprise, like a bolt of lightning from a blue sky. Origin：This has the feel of a Shakespearian or Biblical phrase, but it isn't as old as it sounds. There are several forms of it: 'out of the blue', 'a bolt out of the blue', etc. The earliest citation is Thomas Carlyle, in The French Revolution, 1837: "Arrestment, sudden really as a bolt out of the Blue, has hit strange victims." It is unpleasant to hear him speak on national topics, for he is a bird of ill omen. 叫他谈论国事是不愉快的，因为他常出不吉之言。 a bird of ill omen 中国有句老话:“夜猫子进宅，无事不来”，可见猫头鹰是种不吉利的象征。它往往和黑暗、神秘甚至死亡联系起来。然而在日本，猫头鹰却是吉利和幸福的代表。 奥运会的吉祥物 雕像、挂钟、水壶、牙签盒，甚至还有女士佩戴的胸针 They were only crying crocodile tears at the old man's funeral because nobody had really liked him. 在老人的葬礼上，他们在假装慈悲，因为他们之中没有谁喜欢过他。 We need not hope for lower taxes in the future ─ that would be crying for the moon. 我们不应抱任何希望将来会降低税收，这是根本不可能的事。 “不可能”，“没门”的译法 No way/There is no way! Impossible! Out of the question/That's out of the question! Not a chance! Hopeless! Pigs might fly! The sun might rise in the west! Never/Never ever ever! You are crying for the moon! Street Arabs are produced by slums and not by original sin. 流浪儿是贫民窟的产物，而不是原始罪恶的产物。 John is ashamed of his humble background. That is his Achilles' heel. 约翰因出身卑贱而自惭形秽，这是他的致命弱点。 Every atom of your flesh is as dear to me as my own; in pain and sickness it would still be dear. 在我看来，你身上的每一个细胞都像我自己的细胞一样亲，即使你痛苦你有病，也还是一样亲。 I'll play old Gooseberry with the office, and make you glad to buy me out at a good high figure. 我要在工作上故意捣蛋，使你不得不付出高价收买我。 play gooseberry (British humorous) to be with two people who are having a romantic relationship and who would prefer to be alone. “Best be off to bed, my boy ─ ho, ho!”“No, no. We know a trick worth two of that. We won’t go home till morning, till day light does appear!” “孩子，最好上床睡吧——嗬，嗬！”“不，不，你不必跟我们玩那一套。不到明天，不到天大亮我们不归家。
