4. 反译与倒译
• 1. Half an hour passed before the patient came to. • • • [原译] 在患者苏醒之前，半小时过去了。 [改译] 半小时后，患者才苏醒 [说明] 全句意思是强调事情而不是强调时间。
• 2. Until this is done, the danger of the infection becoming more widely spread always exists. • • • [原译] 直到做到这一点，感染更加广泛扩散的危险总是 存在的。 [改译] 如果做不到这一点，感染更加广泛扩散的危险总 是存在的。 [ 说明] until引导时间状语从句译成表示否定的条件从句。
4. 反译与倒译
• 所谓反译一般是把句中某一词语的正义译为否定的反义，如：把good （好）译成“不坏”，把failure（失败）译成“未成功”等等。所谓 倒译则是把句中某一词语倒其先后而译之，如：A precedes B ( A先 于B ) 译成“B 在A之后”，把before（在……之后）译成“在……之 后才”等等。反译与倒译的译文虽然和正译与顺译的译文含义基本相 同，但有时根据汉语表达习惯和行文需要，采取反译与倒译要比正译 与顺译更为通顺妥帖。
3. 具体化与抽象化
• 在翻译中，有时需将 原文的一个单词、词 组或某一句子成分所 表示的抽象意义具体 化；反之，有时也需 将一个单词、词组或 某一句子成分所表示 的具体意义抽象化， 有时还需将已经具体 的内容进一步具体化， 否则就不能按汉语规 范确切地表达原文的 意思。如：

2. The pai night. [原译] 疼痛常使病人在夜间醒来。 [改译] 病人常在夜间痛醒。
•
[说明] 原译不能算错误，但把原文中的作宾语的人称名 词转译成汉语句子的主语似更好些，也更具有等效性。

3. 具体化与抽象化
• 2. When the syringes crashed to the floor, they were shattered into a thousand pieces. • [原译] 注射器坠落到地上时，碎成千块。 • [改译] 注射器坠落到地上，摔得粉碎。（抽象化） • 3.

翻译的等效性和灵活性
1. 正确理解“等效翻译” • 怎样忠实确切地表达原文 实际上就是如何追求译文 与原文等效（或等值）的 问题。把“忠实于原文” 或“等效翻译”看作在语 法结构或词义上的对等显 然是错误的，对原文的忠 实不能理解为逐词逐句的 “字译”。换言之，译文 和原文的等效不能理解为 词义学和语法结构上的等 值。
4. 反译与倒译
• 3. There is risk for the sick child not to live.
• • • [原译] 病孩有不能活的危险。 [改译] 病孩有死亡的危险。 [说明] 否定的不定式not to live译成肯定， 而live则译成反义。
4. 反译与倒译
• 4. When the child is crying, one palpates the abdomen after a sedative has been given. • [原译] 当小儿啼哭时，可在给予镇静剂后触诊腹部。 • [改译] 当小儿啼哭时，可在触诊腹部之前先用镇静剂。 • [说明] 原译是错误的，使人误会“给予镇静剂后触诊腹 部”似乎是解决“小儿啼哭”的办法，显然与原文意思不 符。作者的意思是，在触诊腹部时如遇患儿啼哭，可先给 镇静剂。因此改译句中把after译成反义，意思正确清楚。 • 5. Only a few studies on this point have been made, and those leave the question still confused. • [原译] 对这方面所做的研究很少，而且这些研究仍使这一 问题混淆。 • [改译] 对这方面所做的研究很少，而且这些研究仍未使这 一问题得到澄清。

The illness quickly responded to

• [原译] 这病对治疗反应很快。
• [改译] 经过治疗此病很快好转。 • [说明] responded to一般义为“对……有反 应”，但在医学专业上用于治疗或药物的
2. 直译与意译
• 所谓的直译不是指逐字逐 句的硬译，而是指译文对 原文的结构、语序和词义 基本保持原状的翻译。但 前提是这种翻译能够达意， 且又符合汉语的表达习惯。 否则就应考虑意译。所谓 的意译也不是随心所欲的 自由化翻译，而是指在直 译不能清楚贴切地表达原 文的情况下采取适当的变 通，不拘泥于原文语法结 构和字句表面意思的较为 灵活的翻译。

• 1. In such circumstances the patient may be agreeably but mistakenly encouraged as to his progress. • [原译] 在这种情况下，病人可能对他的好转感到 愉快而误会的鼓舞。 • [改译] 在这种情况下，病人可能会误认为病情有 所好转而感到欢欣鼓舞。 • [说明] 原译文令人费解，误译的“愉快而误会的 鼓舞”主要是因为译者拘泥于原文agreeably 和 mistakenly两个副词与动词encouraged的搭配关 系。所以虽译出了原文的每个单词，但由于未能 对某些词的词性作必要的转换，致使译文含义不
