经典翻译赏析(一)——单句篇4

经典翻译赏析(一)——单句篇4
译文:苔丝和她现在挨肩儿的妹妹中间,本来还有两个娃娃, 却都在襁褓中就死了,因此她和这个挨肩儿的妹妹,相差四 岁还多;这种情况,使她独自和弟妹们在一块儿的时候,俨 然以“老姐比母”自居。(张谷若译)
赏析:“a deputy-maternal attitude”实在不好译,而张谷若 先生的“俨然以‘老姐比母’自居”却译得那么轻松自然, 准确得当,让人不由得不叹服。吕叔湘先生也有一译,与此 译有异曲同工之妙:Now and then he turned his eyes from the girl's face to that of the partner, which, in exhilaration of the dance,had taken on a look of impudent ownership.他 时而转移他的目光从女子的脸上到她的舞伴的脸上,那张脸 在跳舞的狂热之中俨然有“佳人属我”的神情。
9. Oh, we are proud! (George Bernard Shaw: Pygmalion)
译文:吓,好大架子。(杨宪益译)
赏析:翻译对话,要生动活泼。日常生活中,人们常用的 一些词语、表达方式,大多具有生动活泼的特点,翻译中, 如何充分利用这些有声有色的语言,是一门学问。杨宪益 先生细揣摩说话人的心理,用生动活泼的汉语口语来译原 文,得到的译文“信”、“达”且“切”。
译 她文母:亲她的母病亲已已好经转见,好不,用不她用时她刻时在刻跟在前病伺床候前了伺,候囚了在,病她房 在 里病这房些里 日和子病,人有缠空了出这来么散些散天心,,一她旦当跑然到很外高面兴地了里。,当然 很高兴。(张谷若译)
赏析:先译“her mother’s improvement”,接着译“she was not now required'’,再译“after the confinement of the sick chamber”和“doing it",最后译“she liked”, 翻译顺序是从后依次向前,可谓之倒拆法(“从形式看,[倒 拆]就是按意群把句子拆散,逆着原文的句法排列,逐片往上 倒译”,黄邦杰《译艺谭》,第133页),这样译出来的文 字因是因,果是果,符合汉语的行文顺序。此外,“见好”、 改“译缠:”等词的选择也非常精当。

下面是这篇文章的英语译文赏析,欢迎阅读!背影The Sight of Father’s Back朱自清Zhu Ziqing我与父亲不相见已二年余了,我最不能忘记的是他的背影。

那年冬天,祖母死了,父亲的差使也交卸了,正是祸不单行的日子,我从北京到徐州,打算跟着父亲奔丧回家。

到了徐州见着父亲,看见满院狼藉的东西,又想起祖母,不禁簌簌地流下眼泪。

It is more than two years since I last saw father, and what I can never forget is the sight of his back. Misfortunes never come singly. In the winter of more than two years ago, grandma died and father lost his job. I left Beijing for Xuzhou to join father in hastening home to attend grandma’s funeral. When I met father in Xuzhou, the sight of the disorderly mess in his courtyard and the thought of grandma started tears trickling down my cheeks.要点:1、“祸不单行”= Misfortunes never come singly.关于灾难,灾祸的说法有好几种,文学翻译中常用“misfortune, mishap, suffering”表自然灾害时有disaster, catastrophe, calamity2、”那年冬天“亲们的第一反应一定是in that winter,然而并,不,是,因为前文并没有提及那一年具体是哪一年,而that 只指代前面提到过的事物,所以要在winter后面解释一下。

2)前面说过,张培基先生追求的是再现 原文的神韵,所以张先生在翻译时始终是 站在全局的高度上,透彻理解原文,增益 和删略恰倒好处,使原文潜层语意得到充 分演绎。再看两例:
例2: 这尊塑像站了几百年了,他觉得这是一种苦役。 (艾青《偶像的话》)
译文: Having stood the statue had
赏析:原文中"一朵……一朵……一朵"是一个排比结构,并列关系,而张培基 先生却把它处理为one … another … still another 这种递进结构,使译文更接 近"英式思维",更地道。此外,张先生对几个颜色词的处理也恰倒好处。"Sickly ivory-yellow slightly tinged with blood red" 中两个颜色词组搭配得珠联璧合, 这样,一朵虽然纤弱但对生命仍然执着的蔷薇花便跃然纸上。
赏析:“叶”的涵义是“落叶”,译为fallen leaf; “大约”只不过是一个口头 语,起到舒缓语气的作用,并不是真正意义上的“差不多,可能但不确定”所 以该词可以不必译出; “遥想”这个词的含义已被前文的ancient saying表 达出来了,所以翻译时也可以删略; more than enough是增益成分,准 确表达出了"人们一看见一片落叶就知道秋天已经来临了"的肯定的口气。
译文: It had been snowing all night, not a single star in sight.

英文诗歌翻译与赏析

英文诗歌翻译与赏析

我是生物工程专业学生###,虽然我是理科生,但是我也同样喜欢文学,喜欢语言,喜欢诗歌,因此选了学习这门课,我经常用这句话来激励自己:沧海横流,方显英雄本色;说真心话,做真心人;只要是合理的,就没有做不到的事.二. the road not taken1诗歌简介:这首名诗《The Road NotTaken》形式是传统的抑扬格四音步,但音步可变(含有不少抑抑扬的成分);每节的韵式为abaab 。

弗罗斯特写诗最大的特色就是善于运用眼前看似平淡无奇的事物,去表达一个深刻的哲理。

这正如他在一首诗中写的:“黄色的树林里有两条岔开的路/可惜我不能在同一时间走两条路/我选择了少人行走的那条/这就造成了一切的差异。

”诗人选择了诗歌,放下了在一所师范学校教书的职业以及那可能平坦,安稳的生活。

他对自己说:写诗吧,穷就穷吧,于是他们就来了英国,在离伦敦不远的一个村子里找到了一座木板茅屋作为新家。

罗伯特弗罗斯特堪称美国20世纪90年代最受欢迎的诗人之一,是美国非官方的桂冠诗人,他一生致力于诗歌的创作,主要写作并出版了10部诗集,这一首是其第三部诗集《山的间隔》中的名篇。

2诗歌翻译:The Road Not Taken Robert Frost 未选择的路罗伯特•弗罗斯特Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, 黄色的树林里分出两条路And sorry I could not travel both 可惜我不能同时去涉足And be one traveler, long I stood 我在那路口久久伫立And looked down one as far as I could 我向着一条路极目望去To where it bent in the undergrowth; 直到它消失在丛林深处Then took the other, as just as fair, 但我却选择了另外一条路And having perhaps the better claim, 它荒草萋萋,十分幽寂Because it was grassy and wanted wear; 显得更诱人,更美丽Though as for that the passing there虽然在这两条小路上Had worn them really about the same, 都很少留下旅人的足迹And both that morning equally lay 虽然那天清晨落叶满地In leaves no step had trodden black. 两条路都未经脚印污染Oh, I kept the first for another day! 呵,留下一条路等改日再见Yet knowing how way leads on to way, 但我知道路径延绵无尽头I doubted if I should ever come back. 恐怕我难以再回返I shall be telling this with a sigh 也许多少年后在某一个地方Somewhere ages and ages hence: 我将轻声叹息把往事回顾Two roads diverged in a wood,and I—一片森林里分出两条路I took the one less traveled by, 而我却选择了人迹更少的一条And that has made al lthe difference.从此决定了我一生的道路3诗歌赏析:(1)诗歌特点: 全诗共4节,可分两层:1—3节为第一层,在树林里,“我”面临着两条路,而经过思考决定选择了一条人迹罕至的路。

英语翻译名篇赏析

英语翻译名篇赏析

Of StudiesFrancis BaconStudies serve for delight, for ornament, and for ability. Their chief use for delight, is in privateness and retiring; for ornament, is in discourse; and for ability, is in the judgment and disposition of business. For expert men can execute, and perhaps judge of particulars, one by one; but the general counsels, and the plots and marshalling of affairs, come best from those that are learned. To spend too much time in studies is sloth; to use them too much for ornament, is affectation; to make judgment wholly by their rules, is the humor of a scholar. They perfect nature, and are perfected by experience: for natural abilities are like natural plants, that need proyning by study; and studies themselves do give forth directions too much at large, except they be bounded in by experience. Crafty men contemn studies, simple men admire them, and wise men use them; for they teach not their own use; but that is a wisdom without them, and above them, won by observation. Read not to contradict and confute; nor to believe and take for granted; nor to find talk and discourse; but to weigh and consider. Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested; that is, some books are to be read only in parts; others to be read, but not curiously;and some few to be read wholly, and with diligence and attention. Some books also may be read by deputy, and extracts made of them by others; but that would be only in the less important arguments, and the meaner sort of books; else distilled books are, like common distilled waters, flashy things.Reading maketh a full man; conference a ready man; and writing an exact man. Ant therefore, if a man write little, he had need have a great memory; if he confer little, he had need have a present wit; and if he read little, he had need have much cunning, to seem to know that he doth not. Histories make men wise; poets witty; the mathematics subtile; natural philosophy deep; moral grave; logic and rhetoric able to contend. Abeunt studia in mores. Nay there is no stond or impediment in the wit, but may be wrought out by fit studies: like as diseases of the body may have appropriate exercises. Bowling is good for the stone and reins; shooting for the lungs and breast; gentle walking for the stomach; riding for the head; and the like. So if a man’s wit be wandering, let him study the mathematics; for in demonstrations, if his wit be called away never so little, he must begin again. If his wit be not apt to distinguish or find differences, let him study the schoolmen; for they are cymini sectores. If he be not apt to beat over matters, and to call up one thing to prove andillustrate another, let him study the lawyers’ cases. So every defect of the mind may have a special receipt.谈读书培根读书足以怡情,足以博彩,足以长才。

英语翻译赏析
“翻译是将一种语言文化传承的意义转换到另一种语言文化中的跨语言,跨文化的交际活动.”教材中如是说, 诚如所说语言是文化的载体.通过作者(author), 原文(source text),原文读者(source-test reader),译者(translator),译文(target test ),译文读者(target-test reader)的活动是文化得到传播。

中国文化首当其冲,无疑是历史悠久文化底蕴深厚的国度。

将中国文化按照严复提出影响最深,流传最广的翻译标准“faithfulness ,expressiveness and elegance”准确无误的传递给西方,使我们每一个语言文化学习者努力的方向。

以“人间天堂---杭州”说明文为例,谈谈我们在汉译英过程中,我们应该注意或学习之处。

eg:“良渚文化”遗址即可证明,在4000多年前,这里已有人类繁衍生息。

我觉得这句话的翻译“The ancient Liangzhu Culture ruins were found in what is now Hangzhou. These archeological ruins date back to 2000 B.C. when our ancestors already lived and multiplied here.”中的宾语从句,these, when代词或连词的运用使句与句之间得到衔接,译文逻辑清楚,文气通贯。

Eg:五代时的吴越国和南宋均在此建都,历时237年。

这句话有明显的历史厚重感,而翻译运用了加注法(annotation)Hangzhou also served as an imperial capital for
237 years ---first as the capital of the State of Wuyue (907--978)during the Five Dynasties Period , and again as the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty (1127--1279).向读者介绍了历史时代背景,使译文读者更好地了解中国文化。

运用加注法的地方还有对马可波罗人物的介绍“Marco Polo , perhaps the most celebrated Italian traveler”。

文中还对严子陵钓台进行了加注“the Terrace where Yan Ziling ,a hermit of the Easter Han Dynasty(25—220)
在这篇说明文中存在大量带有中国浓厚底蕴的四字成语给翻译带来了很大的难度。

Eg:“境内西湖如明镜,千峰凝翠,洞壑幽深,风光绮丽。

湖上有彩带似的苏堤、白堤飘落其上。

”译文中使用“Hangzhou's West Lake is like a mirror , embellished all round with green hills and deep caves of enchanting beauty. The Su Causeway which runs from north to south and the Bai Causeway which runs from east to west look like two colored ribbons floating on the water.”前面一句话运用杭州做主语,后面用伴随状语连接,最后将“风光绮丽”与前面合并(combination).后面一句运用了两个并列定语从句,“like two colored ribbons floating on the water.”都是运用了比喻,使译文的写法与风格应与原文的写法和风格的性质相同。

Eg:“三谭印月、湖心亭、阮公墩三个小岛鼎立湖
中。

”的译文是“he three islets named “Three Pools Mirroring the Moon ","Mid-lake Pavilion" and "Ruangong Mound" stand in the lake, adding much charm to the scene”其中“adding much charm to the scene”运用了增词法(amplification)与前面of enchanting beauty相呼应,使文章更连贯。

使用增词法的还有“环湖耸立的山峰,千姿百态。

”译文中是“Hills peaks tower around the lake and amaze the visitor with the ever-changing aspects of their beauty.”中的amaze the visitor 是译文所增加的内容。

Eg:“岳庙、西冷印社、曲院风荷、平湖秋月、花港观鱼、柳浪闻莺等风景点,均在湖之周围.”的译文是“famous beauty spots around West Lake include Yue Fei Temple, Xiling Seal-Engraving Society , Breeze-Ruffled Lotus at Quyuan Garden, Autumn Moon Over the Calm Lake, and several parks like "Viewing Fish at the Flower Pond"
an"Orioles Singing in the Willows ". ”运用了转换法(shift of perspective)应与主语过多避免头重脚轻。

使用转换法的还有“山上多岩石,如玉乳洞、紫来洞、黄龙洞、紫云洞、石屋洞、水乐洞、烟霞洞等,洞内景色优美,且多古代石刻;山间多泉,以虎跑、龙井、玉泉为佳”译文是“Scattered in the adjacent hills are scenic caves and caverns ,such as Jade-Milk Cave , Purple Cloud Cave , Stone House Cave, Water Music Cave
and Rosy Cloud Cave , most of which have many stone sculptures carved on their walls. Also among the hills one finds springs everywhere, perhaps best represented by Tiger Spring, Dragon Well Spring and Jade Spring”.这里化主动为被动。

之后运用了which 引导的定语从句,使用了合并,使文章更加连贯。

诸如此类,这篇文章运用了这些翻译方法。

基本做到了译文完全传达了原文的思想,疑问的写法与风格与原文的写法与分割性质相似,译文如译语创作一样流畅。
