25句最易翻译出错的对话

1. 我很喜欢它。

False: I very like it.

True: I like it very much.

2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。

False: The price is very suitable for me.

True: The price is right.

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 在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。

3. 你是做什么工作的呢？

False: What’s your job?

True: Are you working at the moment?

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，顺带说一下，回答这类问题时不妨说得具体一点，不要只是说经理或者秘书。

4. 用英语怎么说？

False: How to say in English?

True: How do you say this in English?

How to say是在中国最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一，这决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。

5. 明天我有事情要做。

False: I have something to do tomorrow.

True: Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow.

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’m afraid I can’t make it at that time. I,d love to, but I can’t,I have to stay at home.

6. 我没有英文名。

False: I haven’t English name.

True: I don’t have an English name.

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. 我想我不行。

False: I think I can’t.

True: I don’t think I can.

这一组然是个习惯问题，在语法上称为否定前置，这就是汉语里面说“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，只要您留心，也会习惯英语的说法的。

8. 我的舞也跳得不好。

False: I don’t dance well too.

True: I am not a very good dancer either.

当我们说不擅长做什么事情的时候，英语里面通常用not good at something，英语的思维甚至直接踊跃到：我不是一个好的舞者。

9. 现在几点钟了？

False: What time is it now?

True: What time is it, please?

What time is it now这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

10. 我的英语很糟糕。

False: My English is poor.

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

有人开玩笑说，全中国人最擅长的一句英文是：My English is poor实话说，我从来没有遇到一个美国人对我说：My Chinese is poor。无论他们的汉语是好是坏，他们会说: I am still having a few problem, but I'm getting better。当您告诉外国人，您的英语很poor，so what(那又怎么样呢) 是要让别人当场

施舍给我们一些英语呢，还是说我的英语不好，咱们不谈了吧。另外一个更大的弊端是，一边不停的学英语，一边不停地说自己的英语很poor，这正像有个人

一边给车胎充气，又一边在车胎上扎孔放气。我坚信，如果现在就苦下功夫，把

EPTIP系列教材吃通吃透，您的IT职业英语水平立即就会迅速的提高。您以后和外国IT同行交流时再也不用说：我的英语很poor。您可以实事求事地说，我的英语还不算十分流利，但至少我在进步。

11. 你愿意参加我们的晚会吗？

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

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

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搭配的动词的come 或者go。如go a wild party，或者come to a Christmas Party。

12. 我没有经验。

False:I have no experience.

True: I am afraid I don’t know much about that.

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.

13. 我没有男朋友。

False: I have no boyfriend.

True: I don’t have a boyfriend.

14. 他的身体很健康。

False: His body is healthy.

True: He is in good health. You can also say: He’s healthy.

15. 价钱很昂贵/便宜。

False: The price is too expensive/cheap.

True: The price is too high/ rather low.

16. 我们下了车。

False: We got off the car.

True: We got out of the car.

17. 车速快了。

False: The speed of the car is fast.

True: The car is speeding. Or “The car is going too fast.”

18. 这个春节你回家吗？

Will you be going back home for the Spring Festival?

False: 是的，我回去。Of course! (这一句是错的)

True: 当然。Sure. / Certainly.(这种说法是正确的)

以英语为母语的人使用of course的频率要比中国的学生低得多，只有在回答一些众所周知的问题时才说of course。因为of course后面隐含的一句话是“当然我知道啦！难道我是一个傻瓜吗？”因此，of course带有挑衅的意味。在交谈时，用sure或certainly效果会好得多。同时，of course not也具挑衅的意味。正常情况下语气温和的说法是certainly not。

19. 我觉得右手很疼。

False:I feel very painful in my right hand.

True: My right hand is very painful.Or "My right hand hurts(aches)."

20. 他看到她很惊讶。

False: He looked at her and felt surprised.

True: He looked at her in surprise.

21. 我读过你的小说但是没料到你这么年轻。

False: I have read your novels but I didn't think you could be so young.

True: After having read your novel,I expected you would be older.

22. 她脸红了，让我看穿了她的心思。

False:Her red face made me see through her mind.

True: Her red face told me what she was thinking.

23. 看到这幅画让我想到了我的童年时代。

False:The sight of these pictures made me remember my own childhood.

True: Seeing these pictures reminded me of my own childhood.

24. 别理她。

False: Don't pay attention to her.

True: Leave her alone.

25. 我在大学里学到了许多知识。

False: I get a lot of knowledge in the university.

True: I learned a lot in universit

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

英语技巧：容易翻译错误的10个句子

容易翻译错误的10个句子 1. It is two years since I smoked. 误：我抽烟已经两年了。正：我戒烟已经两年了。析：在“It is ＋时间段＋since 从句”中，若表示时间的since 从句中的谓语动词是持续性动词，则这个时间段是从这个持续性动作结束时算起。如：It is ten years since she was here. 她不在这里已经十年了。 2. All of us are not for the plan. 误：我们大家都不赞成这个计划。正：并非我们大家都赞成这个计划。析：all/both/everything 等用于否定结构时不表示全部否定，而表示部分否定。如：Not both of them are right. （并非他们两人都是对的。）又如：She doesn't like everything here. （她并非喜欢这里的一切。） 3. We can't be too careful in doing such experiments. 误：做这样的实验，我们不能太仔细。正：做这样的实验，我们必须非常非常仔细。析：“can not……too……”句式表示“无论怎样也不过分”、“越……越好”。如：We can not estimate the value of modern science too much. （对于现代科学的价值，我们无论作怎样的评价也不算过分。） 4. She isn't hungry a little. 误：她一点也不饿。正：她非常饿。析：“not a little ”意为“很”、“非常”。“not a bit ”和“not in the least ”则意为“一点也不”。如：She isn't hungry a bit. （她一点也不饿。） 5. The man is too strong not to lift the box up. 误：这个人力气不够大，不能把这只箱子提起来。正：这个人力气很大不会提不起这只箱子。析：“too……not to do……”结构表示“很……不会不……”、“非常……必然会……”的意思。“too……to do ”结构则表示“太……而不能”的意思。试比较：Lin Dong is too wise not to work out the problem. （刘东很聪明，不会算不出这道题。）I am too tired to walk. （我太累了，走不动了。） 6. He isn't a farmer and a worker.

【英语】英语翻译易错剖析含解析

【英语】英语翻译易错剖析含解析一、高中英语翻译 1．高中英语翻译题：Directions:Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets. 1．为了安全起见，小孩不应该被单独留在家里。(leave) _________________ 2．深深吸了一口气，他面带微笑地走上了舞台。(with) _________________ 3．一个人待人处世的方式能反映出他是怎样的人。(the way) _________________ 4．只有当一系列奇数问题得到解决，到 2025 年，新能源汽车才能占汽车销量的百分之二十。(Only) _________________ 【答案】 1．For the sake of safety/ For safety, children / a child should not be left alone at home 2．Having taken a deep breath, he went up to the stage with a smile on his face. 3．The way a person treats others can reflect what kind of person he is. 4．Only when a series of technical problems are solved can new energy cars account for 20 percent of all the car sales by 2025. 【解析】【分析】本题考查翻译，注意使用括号内的提示词进行翻译。 1．考查被动语态和“leave+宾语+宾补”结构。根据句意可知本句使用 leave sb alone表示“把某人单独留下”，children / a child与leave之间是被动关系，应该用被动语态，故翻译为：For the sake of safety/ For safety, children / a children should not be left alone at home 2．考查非谓语动词。he与take a deep breath之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，而且take a deep breath明显发生在went up to之前，所以用现在分词的完成式作状语，故翻译为：Having taken a deep breath, he went up to the stage with a smile on his face. 3．考查定语从句和宾语从句。way作先行词，定语从句的关系词，有三中引导方法：in which，that或省略，reflect为宾语从句，从句中缺少表语，用what引导，故翻译为：The way a person treats others can reflect what kind of person he is. 4．考查倒装。account for表示“占（比例）”，“only+状语”位于句首时，其后要用部分倒装，故翻译为：Only when a series of technical problems are solved can new energy cars account for 20 percent of all the car sales by 2025. 2．高中英语翻译题：Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets. 1．交友时不要以貌取人。(base)

英语三分钟对话(附中文翻译)

Whose history is oldest？谁的历史最古老？ A: I just came back from a trip to China and I was very impressed with the long histo of that country . 我刚才中国旅行回来，那个国家的悠久历史给我留下了很深的印象。 B: Last year I visit Europe . It was interesting to see the ancient ruins there , too . 去年我游览了欧洲。参观那儿的古代遗迹也很有意思。 A: when I look at our country’s history , I begin to sense what a young country it really is . 看看我们自己国家的历史，我才体会到这个国家有多么年青。 B: Yes. There are many countries whose histories were ancient when ours was just beginning . 对，当我们国家的历史才开始时，许多国家已经有了悠久的历史了。 A: The first English settlers arrived in America about the time the last Chinese dunasty began . 最早的英国移民到达美国的时候大约正是中国最后一个朝代开始的时候。B: I believe one reason America has been able to be so successful in so many aspects is that it had no ancient traditions to bind it down . 我认为美国之所以那么多方面取得了那么大的成功，一个原因就是美国没有束缚人的古老传统。 A: Why would you say that ? The settlers to America came from countries all over the world and must have brought their traditions with them . 你为什么这样说呢？到美国的移民有来自世界许多国家的人，他们肯定都带来了他们各自的传统。 B: Yes , they did and those traditions have enriched the American heritage(遗产，继承物); however , their purpose in coming to this new country was so they could make a change from the way the were living . Most immigrants(移民，侨民) to America were penniless . They came here to take adavantage of a new way of life . 不错，他们带来的传统丰富了美国的遗产。但是，他们到这个新国家来的目的是想改变他们过去的生活方式。来到美国的大部分移民都是身无分文，他们到这儿来就是要投入新的生活方式。 A: Sometimes I think we ignore the history of the native peoples encountered here in the Americas, both North and Soouth . 有时候我觉得我们忽视了美洲，包括北美洲和南美洲这儿土著民族的历史。B: Well , that’s true .

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.

中国人最容易犯的英汉翻译错误

《中国人最容易犯的英汉翻译错误》－1 一个词变成一个句著名翻译家奈达说，“翻译就是翻译意思”。言外之意，翻译一句话不能逐一翻译一串个别的单词，也不是翻译某种句子结构。初学翻译的人之所以译得不好，就是因为摆脱不了原文各个单词和句子结构的影响，总觉得英语中每一个词译成汉语都是一个词。殊不知，为了说明原文的意思，有时候要将一个词译成几个词，乃至一个短句。这就是翻译中对某些词的…增益?。例如，英语中有些单词相当于汉语的一个词组：read“看书”，drive“开车”，giggle“咯咯地笑”，stumble“蹒跚而行”，等等。这些相对而言还比较简单，一般英汉词典上都能查得到。再如，英语句子中有大量的“副词＋动词”的结构（副词也可能在动词之后）。在不少情况下这种结构可以译成汉语“副词＋动词”的偏正结构（汉语中副词修饰动词时只能放在动词之前），许多人往往用“……地”来译所有的英语副词，如：（1）They were patiently listening to him. 他们在耐心地听他讲。（2）He quickly stood up. 他很快

地站起来。（3）I will gladly join you in the work. 我会乐意地和你一起工作。这三句中都用了“地”字结构，第一句还可以，后两句就显得有点“翻译腔”，“地”字似乎可以省去，可分别改译为：“他很快站起来”和“我乐意和你一起工作”。但是这三句中的副词和动词仍然译成了偏正结构，这是因为三句中的副词表示的是动作的方式。但是，是不是英语中所有的这种结构都可以这么译呢？请大家考虑一下下面这一句应如何翻译：This is a NATO matter and any comment on it should appropriately come from NATO.将appropriately come from NATO译成“合适地来自北约”显然不通。从意义上看，appropriately与其说是表示动作come的方式，还不如说是表示其结果，因此该词应抽出来放到后面，将此句译为：这是北约的问题，关于此问题的评论应由北约做出，这才是适宜的。再请看下面这一句：Law enforcement cannot responsibly stand aloof. 如将此句照字面译成“司法部门不能负责任地冷漠”会让人不知所云。问题在responsibly这个词的处理上，它也不表明动作的方式而是表示一种结果，因此可将此句译为：司法部门对此不闻不问，那就是失责。例如：1. In the late 14th century, Marco Polo famously made his way along trade routes from Italy to China.十四世纪后半叶，马可?波罗从意大利沿贸易通道来到中国，因而一举成名。 2. Their commander wisely judged to be safer in their works than in the field.他们的指挥官认为留在战场上不如呆在工事里更安全，这是很明智的。在翻译副词修饰形容词或另一个副词的结构时，有时也不能一概译成“……地”结构，而需要将该副词抽出来加以增益，才能说明其含义，如： 3. Chimpanzees are the animals closest biologically to humans.从生物学角度看，大猩猩与人的关系最亲近。 4. Tami said it was possible, just statistically unlikely. 泰米说有这样的可能，但是从统计的角度来看又不太可能。 5. The second child she dreamed of might now be medically impossible.她本来还想要一个孩子，从医学角度来看，现在是不可能了。 6. Only 18 percent are officially unemployed. 据官方统计，只有百分之十八的人是失业者。 7. Real-estate prices in downtown Manhattan looked prohibitively expensive. 市中心曼哈顿的房地产价格贵得使人望而生畏。 8. She was remarkably silent when the others all talked and laughed.别人有说有笑时她却沉默不语，显得很突出。 9. It was a vast and treacherous landscape, but breath-takingly beautiful. 这是一片广阔而变幻莫测的景致，但却美得令人惊讶。10. A schoolmaster, finding such errors in a schoolboy?s essay, would be justly indignant. 小学老师在学生的作文里发现这样的错误一定会生气，而生气不是没有道理的。11. Voters were understandably confused by the identical Caser names on the ballot, and the split vote sent the real candidate Caser down to defeat in the primary. 选举人被选票上一模一样卡瑟的名字弄糊涂，因而选票分散，导致真正的候选人在初选时就落选，这是可以理解的。有时候，形容词做定语或表语时，也无法用一个词将其意思充分表达出来，翻译这个形容词时也需要进行增益，如：12. The sleek turbines of the American windmills made economic and ecological sense. 美国造了许多风力磨坊，这从经济和生态角度看是有道理的。13. Now we stay a respectful distance him. 当然不能将a respectful distance译为“尊敬的距离”，应将这一句译成“我们对他敬而远之”。14. He had a sound feeling that idioms were the backbone of a language and he was all for the racy phrases. 他感到习语是语言的主要支柱，因此特别主张用生动的短语，他的想法是很有道理的。15. The prisoners of war are allowed to write censored letter. 战俘们可以写信，但信件要受到检查。16. We should be very cautious when buying expensive things and ask ourselves if we are making a

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。
