翻译技巧一词法翻译法词法中文翻译法是一种将英文涉及的词法结构准确转换成中文的翻译方法。

以下是一些词法翻译的技巧:1.词性转换:根据英文词的词性,在中文中选择相应的词性来进行翻译。

例如,将英文动词翻译为中文动词,将英文名词翻译为中文名词等。

2.词序调整:英语中的语序往往与中文不一致,因此在翻译过程中需要调整词语的顺序。

例如,在英文中形容词通常在名词之前,而在中文中通常在名词之后。

3. 词义转换:有些词在不同的语言中具有不同的意义,因此需要根据上下文选择合适的词义进行翻译。

例如,英文单词“present”既可以指“礼物”,也可以指“现在”。

在翻译时需要根据具体语境选择合适的中文词义。

4. 拆分合并:有些英文词在中文中需要拆分成多个词进行翻译,反之亦然。

例如,英文单词“breakfast”可以拆分成“早餐”进行翻译,中文词组“飞机场”可以合并成英文单词“airport”。

5.排序问题:中文和英文在表达时间、地点等信息时,顺序不同。

在翻译过程中需要注意将这些信息按照正确的顺序表达出来。

6. 同音词替换:有些英文词在发音上与中文词相似,可以使用同音词进行翻译。

例如,英文单词“flower”可以使用中文词“花”进行翻译。

7. 翻译成习惯用语:有些英文词没有直接对应的中文词,可以根据上下文和中文语境,将其翻译成习惯用语。

例如,英文表达“keep your chin up”可以翻译成中文的“保持乐观”。

总之,词法中文翻译法需要考虑词性转换、词序调整、词义转换、拆分合并、排序问题、同音词替换和翻译成习惯用语等方面的技巧,以确保翻译准确、地道。

英译中翻译技巧一、翻译总的原则1. 表达应建立在理解的基础上。

2.翻译时既要忠实于原文,又要符合汉语的习惯。

3.翻译不可太拘泥于原文的形式。

二、翻译技巧1.词法翻译1.1增词译法为使译文在语法、语言形式上符合译文习惯和在文化背景、词语联想方面与原文一致起来,使得译文在与原文在内容、形式和精神等三方面都对等起来,需在原文的基础上添加必要的词、词组、分句或完整句。

e.g. 1) They were frank and candid with each other in a relaxed way.译文:他们相互之间开诚布公、直言不讳而且气氛十分轻松。

2)Suppose the preparatory work should not be completed.译文:准备工作完成不了,那可怎么办?3)Our rushing is understandable, but costly.译文:人们的忙碌是可以理解的,但是为此付出的代价却是昂贵的。

试比较:1) 他喜欢指出别人的缺点,但用意是好的。

译文:He likes to point out other people’s shortcomin gs, but he means well.(增加主语)2)屋里准有人,我听见有人声。

译文:There must be someone in the room, for I heard a voice. (增加连接词)说明:增词译法在英译汉中主要是添加原文中虽无形式却意在其中的成分;在汉译英中一般是增添原文中为了语言简洁而被省去的成分如,主语、宾语、物主代词、连接词、介词等1.2减词译法就是把原文中需要的译文中不需要的词、词组等在翻译时加以省略,以适应译文语法和习惯表达法的需要。

e.g. 1)One must make painstaking effort before one could succeed in mastering a foreign language.(省略主语)译文:要掌握一门外语,非下苦功不可。

Amplification(增词法) (增词法)
By amplification we mean supplying necessary words in our translation work so as to make the version correct and clear, to make it more like the language translated into. Of course words thus supplied must indispensable either syntactically or semantically. In other words, a translator is not supposed to add any meaning to the original. There are two kinds: 1)Words for syntactic construction—to secure correctness, 2)Words supplied for semantic completion—to secure clearness. Both aim at making the version expressive and readily understood by the reader.
(一)英译汉常用的增益法
I.增加原文中省略的部分 1. Since the first test of the atomic bomb the world has learnt that the atom can be split and its power used. (power后省略了can be) 自从第一颗原子弹试验以来,全世界都已知道, 原子可以分裂,原子能可以 可以利用。 可以 2. A fool and his words are soon parted; a man of genius and his money.(money后省略了are soon parted) 愚人会很快忘记说过的话,智者会很快放弃 很快放弃手里 很快放弃 的钱。

词义的选择
英语与世界上任何一种语言一样 都存在着一词多义的现象。所谓 一词多义,是指同一个词在同一 种词性中,具有几个不同的词义。 在英语与汉语中,很难找到一词 一义的对应情况,这就需要在翻 译过程中理解英语原文中单词的 意思,然后努力地寻找在汉语中 与这个英语单词具有相同意义的 常用表达方法。就home这个词而 言,大多数人都知道有“家”的 意思,但是,上下文不一样, home的翻译就完全不一样。
• • • • • • • • • • • •
Байду номын сангаас
delicate vase 容易碰碎的花瓶 delicate diplomatic question 微妙的外交问题 delicate surgical operation 难做的外科手术 delicate ear for music 对音乐有鉴赏力 delicate sense of smell 灵敏的嗅觉 delicate food 美味的食物

• • •

(一)根据词性确定词义
• 如:book这个单词,在作名 词时,意思是“书,书籍”; 用作动词却常表示“预订, 预约”的意思。又如:while 作连词时,有 “当...的时候, 而,虽然”等意思;作名词 时,却指“片刻,一会儿”; 作动词,又有“消磨”的意 思。遇到这种情况,如果不 弄清楚词性,常常就会将词 义搞错,进而影响原文的正 确理解和准确翻译。因此在 翻译中,我们可以根据语法 关系来辨别关键词的词性, 以便能准确的判断词义。
动词work在翻译时如果上下文不同,汉语习惯搭配也不一样,翻译时应 该选择不同的词义来表达。 • I think your suggestion will work. 我想你的建议行得通。 • The new treatment works like magic. 新疗法疗效神奇。 • My watch doesn‟t work. 我的表不走了。 • The sea works high. 海浪汹涌起伏。 • She worked her way to the front. 她好不容易才挤到前面。 • The root of the pine tree worked down between the stones. 松树的树根在石缝间扎下去。 • The new regulation is working well 新规定执行得很顺利。

委员会提出那个提案,他们就把它否 决了。
They killed the motion when it came from the committee.
5)不顾具体搭配
由于不同语言有不同的选择限制,汉英两种语言中 某些对应的词语搭配范围是不尽相同的。 首先,使用范围大小不同。 其次,可引申的程度或引申义不同。 最后,上下义词的搭配分工不同。在汉语中泛指一 般动作的动词只能与泛指一般事物的名词搭配,表 示具体动作的动词往往只能与表示具体事物的名词 搭配;英语一般不受此限制。
汉译英句子翻译实例:
41) 这些国家的经济形势每况愈下。 The economic situation in these countries is on the downgrade. 42) 为了迷人眼目,他们把自己打扮成革命者。 In order to throw dust into the eye of the public, they decked themselves out as revolutionaries. 43) 扪心自问,他不得不承认自己是错了。 By searching his heart he could not but admit that he was in the wrong. 44) 他们个个摩拳擦掌,士气很高,准备再打一个漂亮仗。 Every one of them rolled up his sleeves for battle, high in morale and ready to win another brilliant victory. 45) 我们必须全力以赴,拿下这场球。 We must do our level best to win this game.
