二、该选题的研究现状及发展趋势
随着中国的飞速发展,通行世界的英语也受到英语影响,社会的发展总是跟社会的分工联系,传统英语与中国文化的碰撞产生中式英语。许多专家学者对此现象进行了多角度研究,可追溯到1980年,语言界对此众说纷纭。支持的专家认为,中式英语现象的存在是客观,它以国际标准英语为基础,融合中国特有的文化,更好的实现中西文化交流。而持否定观点的专家则认为,传统英语是历史的产物,中式英语是其变体,是中国学习者对英语语言文化背景匮乏所导致。如今的中式英语一方面意为畸形的山寨英语,常常因不精通语言规则而闹出笑话;另一方面则意为指真正有文化内涵,有助于中西方文化的融合的语言,它是与时俱进的,动态的时代特征。此外,中式英语在语音、词汇、句式、语篇等各个语言层面的研究还有待完善和发展。目前,中式英语的语篇研究是最为薄弱的环节,词汇层面的研究较为充分,主要是由于社会文化的发展变化在词汇层面体现得最为明显。据中国社会科学院语言研究所在上世纪末的调查,自改革开放以来,汉语已经产生了大约7000多个比较稳定的新词,进入21世纪,这个数字已然翻了几番。在条件成熟的时候,中国英语语料库的建设也会得到长足发展。不断探索中式英语的特点,使中国英语更趋规范,更加系统,推进中国英语的发展,真正实现“让世界了解中国,让中国走向世界”任重而道远。

一、研究目的和意义
中式英语是一种具有中国特征的语言,其带有中文词汇、语法、表达习惯及中国文化的英语。因受汉语思维影响且对英语文化不过关,中国人在汉译英的过程中,将汉语机械化地转化成英语,不改变结构,不注重词汇场合运用,导致英语扭曲,不被正宗英语所接受。这种泛滥的中式英语环境非常不利于中国人民的学习以及对外的交流。在中国,中式英语已经成为一个困扰英语学习者的普遍问题,所以克服这个问题十分必要。通过本论文研究,分析区别中外文化背景思维差异,尽可能避免中式英语现象,学好正宗的英语,促进中外交流,使国内外政治、经济、文化达到信息对称。故本研究具有一定实用价值。

四、主要研究内容及预期目标
主要研究内容
无可否认中式英语现象越来越广泛,无论从经济政治文化各大方面,还是中外人使用英语时,或多或少出现中式英语。这样的现象虽有利有弊,从学习英语来说,正确学习并正确应用英语是很重要且很有必要的,不规范甚至错误的英语不但不会使中西文化进步,反而会使正宗的文化受到严重影响。本论文意在试图分析中式英语现象的原因,从源头研究找到恰当的学习方法,尽量避免中式英语问题。本文主要分为五个章节:

浅析汉译英中的中式英语现象
浅析汉译英中的中式英语现象作者:殷碧雯来源:《青年时代》2016年第18期摘要:本文对中国影视剧名的搞笑翻译中的中式英语现象进行了分析。
随着英语在中国的广泛传播,中式英语的问题越来越突出,这样必然影响着国人和外国人之间的沟通和交流。
互联网上存在着一些中国影视剧剧名的恶搞翻译,根据这个现象,这篇论文主要致力分析这些影视剧剧名的汉译英翻译中的中式英语现象,以此让人们更好的了解什么是中式英语,作者希望能以此改善翻译质量帮助人们对英语有更好的认识并能在以后的翻译活动中更好的避免中式英语这一错误。
关键词:中式英语;中国影视剧;汉译英剧名;一、中式英语中式英语是在英语学习过程中受母语的影响出现的一种错误的不规范的英语(李文中,1993)。
中式英语在英语界被称之为“Chinglish”,它带有明显的中文语音、语法、词汇特点,同时又是汉语和英语的混合成,但是它“既不是英文又不是中文”(Pinkham,2000)。
因此,尽管中式英语是由中国人发明并受中国文化的影响,但是中式英语是一种不符合规范英语,不符合英语文化习惯的畸形语言,是不符合地道的英语表达习惯或语法规则,受母语影响较为深刻的一种语言。
中式英语很难被英语国家的人所理解和接受。
二、中式英语的成因及表现中式英语是中国的英语学习者在用用于进行交际时候,受母语语音、结构、语义或文化干扰和影响而出现的失误。
中式英语有很多表现形式,接下来,作者将以中国影视剧的剧名的搞笑翻译为例,分析其中的中式英语的现象。

论英汉翻译中的中式英语.26
汉英翻译中的中式英语及其改善措施摘要:随着我国改革开放和全球经济一体化,我国与其他国家之间的交流与沟通越来越频繁。
英语已经发展为一门世界性语言,并且成为我国对外交流的主要工具;而翻译便成为必要的交流形式。
然而,在翻译过程中普遍存在“中式英语”的现象。
译者拘泥于原文字面,“对号入座”,使得译文生硬晦涩,不符合英语的习惯表达,并带有明显的汉语特征,因而不能被以英语为母语者所接受。
它的存在严重影响了翻译的质量以及我国的对外交流。
针对这一问题,本文对中式英语进行了较系统的研究,旨在给中国英语学习者一个借鉴,在翻译过程中尽量减少使用中式英语,提高汉英翻译的质量。
本文共分为五大部分,从三个方面对中式英语进行论述。
第一个方面从中式英语的定义入手,对中式英语进行了一个简单介绍,并分析了它的六种错误类型,通过大量例子,较详细的描述了汉英翻译中的中式英语的表现形式;第二个方面则利用对比分析指出其产生的根本原因,即中西思维模式的差异以及母语的干扰;第三个方面针对中式英语的产生原因及表现形式,提出了五大改善措施,以减少和避免汉英翻译中中式英语的现象。
关键词:中式英语;思维模式差异;母语的干扰Chinglish in Chinese-English Translation and Possible SolutionsAbstract: With China‟s reform and opening-up policy and economic globalization, Chinese people are communicating with foreign countries in every aspect. English has developed as a widely used language to fulfill international communication, and translation has become a necessary method. However, a phenomenon exists commonly in Chinese- English translation, that is, Chinglish. The translators just rigidly stick to original words, and their translations turn out to be obscure and not consistent with English habits or rules but with Chinese characteristics, which cannot be accepted by English native speakers. Consequently, Chinglish seriously affects the translation quality and our communication with the world, and the international status of our country.This paper is an attempt to study Chinglish in Chinese-English translation. It consists of three parts. Part one describes Chinglish with interlanguage and analyzes the basic causes of Chinglish that are thought pattern difference between Chinese and English and interference of mother tongue. From the aspects of six sorts of errors, part two demonstrates main manifestations of Chinglish in C-E translation with a large number of examples. Part three offers some possible solutions with an aim to reduce or evade Chinglish in Chinese-English translation to the largest extent.Key words: Chinglish; thought pattern difference; mother tongue interferenceTable of ContentsI.

IntroductionSince English has developed as an international language, study on various English versions on the linguistics, culture and cognition has become an important subject in the international language study field.Scholars home and abroad have been devoting themselves to studying Chinglish for years. Li Wenzhong distinguished Chinglish from Chinese English. He thought that Chinese English was not a hypothesis but an objective phenomenon with expansive prospect and study value, while Chinese English was distorted English and would be gradually reduced or eliminated along with the wide use of English and Chinese English learners‟. On the basis of interlanguage, both Chinese English and Chinglish were interlanguage variations produced by Chinese and affected by Chinese culture, and they were inevitable. There are two causes of Chinglish. First, the misunderstanding of the original and for the second was being not familiar with English characteristics and adopting Chinese collocations and structures. Joan Pinkham, an American professional translator, systematically classified Chinglish manifestations and corrected them with specific analysis.The author of this paper agrees that Chinglish is objective and unavoidable for Chinese English learners but needs improvement. This paper studies Chinglish in Chinese-English translation, discussing its definition, causes and solutions with a large number of examples.II. ChinglishChinglish has existed for a long history, even since Chinese began to study and use English. In the early 1980s, some foreign experts pointed out that some phrases or structures in some published Chinese magazines and newspapers did not conform to Standard English actually. Because it manifests Chinese feature, they called this kind of English “Chinglish” (Ma Xuehong 79).A. Definition of ChinglishChinglish is defined by Joan Pinkham who is an American language expert in her book The Translator’s Guide to Chinglish: “Chinglish, of course, is that misshapen, neither English nor Chinese but that might be described as …English with Chinese characteristics”. It does not conform to Standard English and cannot be understood or accepted by English native speakers, so it is playing a negative role in communicating with English people.In the strict sense, Chinglish is the interlanguage of Chinese learners between Chinese and English. Two of the characteristics of interlanguage are cited: (Pinkham 32) (1)It is dynamic, and full of errors, and is in the process of constant change towards astandard target language system.(2)The learner‟s competence is transitional. It is subject to constant revision, passes through a number of stages, and forms the “interlanguage continuum”.Another feature is fossilization which is defined as a process occurring from time to time in which incorrect linguistic features become a permanent part of the way a person speaks or writes a language.Being Chinese, we generally cannot reach the same level of competence as English natives. Our “final state”grammar is not standard English grammar. Thus, certain rules and items “fossilize”. Typical errors are “he have…”and “she go to school yesterday”, etc.According to the definitions of Chinglish and interlanguage and the characteristics of interlanguage,a conclusion can be drawn that Chinglish is an interlanguage of Chinese learners of English, and is neither Chinese nor English but stands between them.B. Manifestations of Chinglish in Chinese-English TranslationIt has been discussed in chapter one that thought is the basis of language, so the thought pattern difference will affect the transformation of the languages. Translation is a language activity that reexpresses the thought of language by another language accurately and entirely. In this sense, translation should not be merely viewed as the transformation of languages, but also the transformation of thought patterns. Besides, the structure difference between the two languages will also affect the translation. When translating, many Chinese English learners only pay attention to the language replacement, neglecting the differences of thought patterns and structures. Consequently, Chinglish appears. For a clearer cognition of this phenomenon, this chapter classifies it to six sorts of errors that are rigid translation, unnecessary words, and misuse of words, incorrect word order, incorrect subject and incorrect negation.1. Unnecessary WordsA sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentence. It is said that any words which perform no function in the sentence—that is, which add nothing to the meaning—should be edited out.However, almost every text translated from Chinese into English contains unnecessary words. Namely, unnecessary words appear in a large number of phrases and sentences. Unnecessary words are thehallmark of Chinglish. Let‟s see the following examples.(1) 确保中美两国之间紧密的合作关系。

开题报告 汉英翻译中的中式英语现象研究
开题报告汉英翻译中的中式英语现象研究在科技论文摘要翻译中,医刊汇编译发现许多作者对英文的地道表达方式以及词语运用欠熟练,他们往往只是将两种语言进行文字表面的机械对等转换,而缺乏深入挖掘其内在含义,以及对中英两种语言在表达方式中的思维差异缺乏了解,再加之作者因为英文基本功不够深厚扎实,对一些常见基本的习惯表达方式不了解,故导致其所书写的英文摘要中存在大量的中式英语现象,令英语为母语的读者读来会感觉艰涩难懂,甚至不知所云。
一、词汇层面的中式英语现象。
一是词汇误用,英语中的一些词语具有相近的汉语含义,但是要依据具体前后文语境等情况择其而用,不可只凭借汉语含义一以概之,机械地进行汉英语言转换,而忽略单词的具体使用方法和语境。
二是受汉语语言思维模式影响的词汇误译,很多科技论文作者受汉语思维模式的影响,局限于汉语表层上的对等语言转换,而缺乏挖掘领悟其在具体语境中的深层含义,同时英语语言功底欠扎实,极易造成“想当然”而形成的中式英语。
三是近义词组误用导致的中式英语。
二、句型层面的中式英语现象。
一是因句子成分不一致而导致的中式英语,由于英语对语言形式美感和语句结构平衡的严谨要求,对于担任同一语句成分的词汇、短语等,均需要结构一致,不可混淆,参差不齐。
二是由于句式结构不同而导致的中式英语,具体应注意以下几点:1.状语后置。
在汉语中,时间状语和地点状语通常位于句首或者句中,按照“直线式的思维模式”顺畅自然地表达出来,而英语则习惯于将其置于句尾。
2.定语从句的应用。
汉语的定语一般前置,即放在被修饰语的前面,而且不论单词,短语,句子都是置于被修饰语之前,但是在英语中,除单词作定语时前置外,分词短语、不定式短语、介词短语等均须后置,特别是在科研学术论文中定语从句的应用十分广泛,句式灵活,表意清晰,结构层次分明,但与汉语的定语位置不同,都置于被修饰的中心词语之后。
3.形式主语现象。
和汉语不同,英语是一个崇尚形式美感的语言文字系统,为了使句子结构平衡匀称,通常将冗长繁复的主语从句或者不定式放在语句后面部分,而用“it”作形式主语,其宗旨在于避免“头重脚轻”的句子结构。
浅析汉英翻译中的中式英语
浅析汉英翻译中的中式英语作者:戴素敏来源:《成才之路》2011年第23期摘要:在英语教学过程中,经常会出现学生不能准确、地道地表达自己的思想,会说出许多中式英语(Chinglish)。
中式英语是中国英语学习者受到母语的负迁移影响,在语言交际中出现的不符合规范英语或英语文化的“特殊”英语。
本文分析了中式英语产生的原因及在汉英翻译中的表现和解决的策略。
关键词:中式英语;汉英翻译中式英语形成于18世纪的洋泾浜语(Pidgin),是当时的广州中国人同英国商人进行贸易时使用的工作语言。
词汇以英语为主,夹杂着广东话、葡萄牙语、马来语及印地语的字眼,语法结构主要为广东话。
体现的是中国人习得英语的最初级、最表面的阶段。
从它的历史成因上我们可以把中式英语简单理解为汉语语法与英语词汇的结合。
它指在汉语思维和汉语模式的影响下完全根据汉语字面意思来表达的英语形式,是英汉翻译中的一种不规范的表现,带有明显的汉语痕迹。
因此,我们在英汉翻译中要克服中式英语的出现,无论在口语或书面语中都要正确地表达出原文的含义和语言特点。
一、中式英语产生的原因1. 母语的负迁移迁移指在学习新知识时,学习者以前所掌握的知识、经验对新知识学习的影响。
学习者在学习第二语言时,会受到母语的迁移作用。
迁移又可以分为正迁移和负迁移。
正迁移指母语与目的语相似,能够促进目的语的学习。
例如,“我去上学”。
“I go to school.”母语与目的语的结构相似,学习者能够较好地掌握这一句型。
相反,如果目的语和母语存在差异,学习者在目的语的学习中就会盲目套用母语的表达习惯或模式,因此出现错误,这就是负迁移。
比如,英语中有存在句型,“there be”句型。
但学习者在实践翻译中,经常会忘记这个句型,会用实意动词来取代。
英汉属于不同的语系,因此存在着更多的差异,中国学习者在学习英语时的负迁移就会大于正迁移。
尤其是在英语学习初级阶段,由于掌握的知识还不够熟练,更容易受到母语的负迁移影响,出现中式英语就成为必然的一个过程。
探析汉英翻译中的中式英语
探析汉英翻译中的中式英语摘要:中式英语是英语学习者、特别是英语初学者在交流和使用英语时出现的一种偏差。
由于受母语中文的长期影响,中式英语不符合英语文化规范和惯例。
中式英语对讲英语的人来说往往是无法理解或无法接受的。
为了帮助英语学习者学习英语,在交流过程中更好地表达自己,理解他人的感受,本文研究汉英翻译中出现中式英语的原因以及克服这种现象的方法,以期为汉英翻译教学带来启发。
关键词:中式英语;汉英翻译;思维习惯一、引言中式英语是学习者在学习和使用英语时,在中国传统文化观念的影响下,所表达的一种具有中文词汇、中文语法和中文表达习惯的语言。
中式英语是中国人学习英语时不可避免的一种语言现象,在英语中被称为Chinglish,是一种结合了中文和英文的语言。
二、中式英语出现的原因(一)母语负迁移的影响心理学中的迁移有时也被称为学习迁移或训练迁移。
它指的是一种学习经验对另一种学习经验的影响,即在一种情况下获得的技能、知识和态度对在另一种情况下获得技能、知识和态度的影响。
迁移可以分为正迁移和负迁移。
当一种类型的学习对另一种类型的学习有积极的促进作用时,就会出现正迁移。
例如,阅读技能的获得有助于写作技能的发展。
Rod Ellis指出,中国人在学习英语时,学习者的母语会对学习和使用英语产生消极影响,尤其是对初学者。
这是因为中文和英文,以及中国人的思维和表达方式,是由不同的文化影响形成的。
这可能会影响英语的学习和使用,特别是对初学者而言。
中式英语就是这种来自母语的负迁移的结果。
(二)文化传统的差异语言是文化的载体,是人类社会思想和感情交流的重要工具。
语言是以文化为基础的。
语言以文化为基础:不同的民族有不同的文化,这些文化是相互依存的,有各自的个性和普遍的共同点。
这些共性构成了文化间交流和翻译的最重要基础,而不同文化的个性和特殊性则构成了这种交流的障碍,也就是翻译问题。
因此,可以说,如果不了解英语和汉语的社会和文化方面,就无法真正掌握一门语言。

浅析汉译英中的中式英语现象
OutlineThesis statement: With the further development of economy and globalization, more and more people concentrate their attention on the English translation teaching. Translation as an important device to push forward communication activities, it greatly promotes the exchange between different nations. Chinglish occurs among intercultural communication, which may arouses misinterpret so that severely influences the communication effect. In this thesis, the author attempts to analyze the reasons of this phenomenon, and provides the best possible solutions to the problem.I. IntroductionII.

The solutions of chinglish in C-E translationV. ConclusionThe Brief Analysis of the Chinglish inChinese-English Translation[Abstract] Translation is the foundation of English, which is indispensable learning resources and tools to us and is the supporter of communication.With the development of culture, Chinese-English translation is changed to keep abreast with the time. The analysis of the chinglish in the Chinese-English translation has been brought into focus among the teachers and researchers. This is a study of the analysis of the chinglish in the Chinese-English translation by referring to the following five aspects: a brief introduction, character, causes, solutions, and the conclusion. Based on these five aspects, the paper mainly discusses the characters of chinglish from three perspectives: understanding of source text; sentence level; word level. Towards the end of the paper, some suggestions will be raised upon the existing situation regarding this research.[Key Words] analysis; chinglish; Chinese-English translation1.IntroductionWith the further development of economy and globalization, English is the most signicant material for students’ learning and thinking, and it is the vehicle through which knowledge is transmitted. It plays a key role to assure the quality of communication. In recent years, more and more people concentrate their attention on the English translation teaching. Russian news released the world's most popular ten words list 2005, chinglish ranked fourth. As we all know, chinglish or Chinese English is widespread. But it cannot be accepted by English people. Even worse, the misunderstanding severely influences the communication. Faced with diverse chinglish, it’s necessary for us teachers to assess and analyze these characters systematically and suitably in order to make rational decisions in Chinese-English translation. We need to analyze the causes and solutions for chinglish translation so that we can make better use of English.2. Character2.1 The understanding of source textDifferent people have different understandings about text. Text is best seen as a resource in achieving aims and objectives that have already been set in terms of learner needs. Text tend to reflect that how the language may be most properly taught or delivered to learners, and how the language may be effectively worked upon during learning. The basis of translation is truth, which expresses the author’s opinions, emotion, idea, style and so on. As Tytler said, that thetranslation should give a complete transcript of the ideas of the original. The greatest translator of modern china, Yanfu has a share in his translation experience xin-da-ya. The most manifestation of chinglish in Chinese-English translation is that misunderstand source text that can’t translate the original meaning correctly. Or someone can’t use accurate literate form to translate Chinese into English because misread text. As a result, chinglish will be naturally in the translation and is hard to be removed.2.2 The word level“Unnecessary words are the hallmark,”(Pinkham,2000:2)“Almost every text translated into English from Chinese,(or that has been written directly in English by a native speaker of Chinese) contains unnecessary words.”(Pinkham, 2000:1) There are both formal and informal of context. Misuse of words constitutes most chinglish in Chinese –English translation. Without real understanding of their inner senses, the translator do translating according to the specficial meaning of words and what’s more, they ignore the differences between Chinese and English .Different nations have different thinking modes and cultural backgrounds, and different language have different rules expression. In the Chinese and English languages, there are many expressions in which the words are arranged in different order. The inversion of word order is an important factor to correct chinglish translation.2.3 The sentence levelIn an English sentence, it is acknowledged that the reason should be placed at the end of a sentence. As we know that the result should be stated at the end of a Chinese sentence. So you should use inverse translation that you need to adjust the original sentence structure and expression. Such as, they cancelled the outing because of the rain in English. Because of the rain, they cancelled the outing. The last sentence is a little chinglish. Strunk and white (str unk and white, 1979:23) think of this as a general principle:“The proper place in the sentence for the word of group of words the writer desires to make most prominent is usually the end. ”In Chinese-English translation, some translators misplaced the emphasis of Chinese version in English because of the interference from Chinese. “Chinglish is an awkward mixture in which ideas conceived in Chinese are ungrammatically expression in English.”(He mingzhu, 2000)3.The causes of chinglish in C-E translation3.1 Difference between thinking wayLanguage and thought are closely related. Language influences thought, in turn, thought decides the structure language. The thinking way of western people belongs to analytical type.Chinese people, however, incline to take consider specific details. Although along with the further communication, the distance is shorter and shorter for these two modes, while the essential part of each will not change easily. In Chinese-English translation, the discrepancy should be taken into account so as to reduce chinglish.3.2 Difference between culturesThe generality of the culture made it possible to translate, while the character of its language obstructs the translation. The Chinese students are nurtured by the long-term Chinese language and culture, lacking of understanding for the character of different language and culture, leading to poor information in cross-cultural communication; it is easy to appear chinglish. Take dog for example, it is just a animal in Chinese. However, it means a loyal friend in English. It is clear that Chinese culture and English culture all retain their own trait. So Chinese people and English people living in different areas may have different view of things. Among Chinese-English translation, people have different understanding on same thing to make chinglish.3.3 Difference between usagesUsage is the use of the conventional express, sometime like a Chinese idiom. As foreign language learners are deeply ingrained in the brain for their mother tongue, which may has negative impact on knowledge of foreign languages. And interferes with the correct and authentic foreign language .In generally, we say “study knowledge”in Chinese, while get knowledge in English.3.4 The learning methodWriting, to a large extent, is based on reading. It is said that wide reading and imitation can contribute to the native-like writing. Lacking of background knowledge and accumulation, learners can’t find the corresponding correct English expression to express their thoughts. They have formed the habit of trying to write in English what they would in Chinese and in this case, chinglish is likely to occur.3.5 The teaching strategyIt is evident that good translation takes place only when the learner has access to second language input and the opportunity to interact with the input. The teachers main concern is whether the students will pass the national college English test, so that they don’t shape students’habit to translate, and the way of thinking. They don’t usually create English-Englishenvironment to inflect students.4.The solutions of chinglish in C-E translationFirstly, In English teaching, teaching should be combined with the text to the students on the social conventions of western culture, historical background knowledge, strengthen students' understanding of English language characteristics, improve the students' English level, and reduce the students' pragmatic failures in the teaching process in addition to the teaching of vocabulary, grammar.Many English learners hope to achieve a kind of state that thinking in English. However, the learners Chinese thinking modes have deeply impact on the way the learners writing English and result in the chinglish. In peacetime memories, therefore, learners should understand the meaning of the words deeply, pay attention to English interpretation, make better use of a variety of ways to understand the true meanings of words.Reading more and wide is the most efficient way to reduce chinglish. On one hand, learners can jump out of the habit of writing in English but thinking in Chinese, and shape a good habit that the English ways of thinking. On the other hand, reading more about English western countries can weak the influence of the mother tongue so that they may choose the right words to express.Teachers should encourage student use an English –English dictionary. Keeping a good dictionary at hand seems to be a good remedy for the misuse of words.5. ConclusionThe study reported here is clearly a very small step in the task of unraveling mysteries of the analysis of chinglish in Chinese-English translation. The study might be useful to teachers to design teaching plan and spare no efforts to adapt the students’ minds into the ways of thinking. The thesis is expected to serve as a guide to the Chinese to English translation and ultimately to benefit translation in quality. Admittedly, what we have discussed in this study is far from complete. Some improvements we want to make in our further research include interviewing teachers and students, comparing the difference between Chinese and western English countries, and conducting a survey, which can make the study more adequate.ReferencesHe mingzhu. writing English the English way- a study of the causes of chinglish .
