汉语四字格及新词翻译
汉语四字格翻译汉语中四字结构的翻译在很多时候，非常令人头疼棘手，很多同学要么误认为这些都属于成语，要么总想在英语中找一个形式与之对应的翻译来处理。
其实不然，汉语中出现的四字格，很多只是为了读起来上口，对仗，并没有太深的寓意，我们只需简单的理解一下意思，我们在很多情况下可以将四字格前后两个词语分开来处理，首先判断该结构属于什么词类，然后再分析前后两个词语间的逻辑关系，用相应的单词或者表达处理即可。
请看下面的例子：（一）并列关系这种四字结构，前后两个词语属于并列关系，我们只要能够将前后两个词语分别译成相应的英语译文，中间用并列连词“and”连接即可。

汉语新词语的维吾尔语翻译
丝 路 视 野翻译是将一种语言转换为另一种语言的过程，在转化过程中保持原有思想和意义不变。
随着文化的发展，对翻译的要求也有所提高，根据国内外翻译学家的理论对翻译的阐述，对翻译应该要用最接近和最自然的语言来表达原文的意义，这样不仅可以保证语义的准确再现，同时也能更好地被受众接受。
汉语新词语在结构上属于词语范围，因此，在翻译时应参考单词的翻译方法，但在翻译过程中与一般的单词翻译不同，新词语的翻译要更加留意其不稳定性与灵活性，翻译时要更加注意文化背景和产生环境等因素，避免出现语义误解的现象。
一、汉语新词语的定义汉语新词语是在我国社会高速发展的背景下诞生的新生词语，具有其独特的新兴的语言结构。
属于新社会背景下新创造出来的一种词语类别，表达着对生活的新的理解和意义。
文化的感悟与创新源自生活状态的改变和思考，新词语的内容和表达都是创新的，是伴随着社会发展不断进步的。
发展的脚步越快，文化的新思想越多，新词语就越多，也越贴近人们的生活。
新代表着与之前已存在的不同，是对当前文化和生活的新理解与感悟，代表着不同的意义与内涵。
近年来，由于流行词汇的大量增加，使部分词语的使用频率增高，因此，针对这一现状，国家将局限性小、流传性广且具备汉语语法结构特点的词语定义为汉语新词。
二、汉语新词语的维语翻译策略语言翻译都具有一定的规律可循，汉语新词语的维吾尔语翻译也是一样。
在翻译中遵循一些基本的规律可以帮助译者尽快进入工作状态，但维吾尔语本身具有其的特性，在语言结构上与汉语有很大的不同，因此，在汉语新词语的维语转换上要注意以下几点，首先，翻译要有创造性，这源于新词语本身的独特创新性。
其次，要注意翻译的时效性，新词语的诞生具有时效性，因此，译文也应注意此点。
最后，要具备不易求证性。
为实现这三点，可以运用的翻译方法有以下几种。
（一）仿译仿译是现阶段汉语新词语翻译中常用的翻译方法，主要重点是注意原词中的词语元素和结构，将汉语含义表达出来，将其与维吾尔语中的相应词素进行组合，然后创造出一个崭新的独一无二的新词语。
浅析汉语流行新词的翻译
浅析汉语流行新词的翻译赵鑫【摘要】语言的发展是一个自然现象。
社会不断地发展变化,新词语也层出不穷。
近年来,大量的汉语新词涌现出来并得到广泛应用。
文章以近年来在各种媒体出现的流行新语的翻译为实例,探讨了汉语流行新词的产生、翻译的方法以及翻译过程中应该注意的问题。
【期刊名称】《甘肃广播电视大学学报》【年(卷),期】2012(022)004【总页数】4页(P30-33)【关键词】汉语;新词;翻译【作者】赵鑫【作者单位】甘肃广播电视大学直属学院,甘肃兰州730030【正文语种】中文【中图分类】H059当今世界，发展速度迅猛异常，人类交际日趋频繁，信息传播方便、快捷。
地球上任何一个国家或者地区发生的事件，都会通过各类媒体瞬间传遍全球，作为反映社会生活的语言也相应地随之发生变化，而且这种变化的速度越来越快。
作为语言中最敏感、最活跃部分的词汇，更是日新月异。
几乎每天都有涉及政治议题、经济热点、科学技术、文化娱乐、日常生活等方方面面的新词汇进入我们的语言，如“被就业”、“躲猫猫”、“裸婚”、“给力”、“雷人”“根叔”、“蚁族”等词语最早出自网络，但很快被其它媒体采用。
这些被称为“热词”、“锐词”、“潮词”的新词，形式简单新颖，构词方式独特，形象生动，感情鲜明，内涵丰富，既丰富了语言，又极具时代特色，但是它们却缺乏直接对应的英文词汇，如何在全球经济一体化的背景下，将这些新词汇译成准确、地道的英语，使国外读者能够在第一时间了解中国的国情及社会发展变化，促进中西方交流，已成为翻译工作者面临的首要任务。
一、汉语流行新词的产生2006年，教育部、国家语委首次向社会发布年度语言生活状况报告。
在教育部发布的《中国语言生活状况报告(2006)》中，列出了171条汉语新词语选目。
但时至今日，对于新词的界定，学界还未形成一个标准统一的定义。
新词(Neologism)，指的是在表达新事物、新现象和新概念的过程中创造出来的词语。
它是个相对的、具有发展性的概念。
