抽象与具体译法
中国人的思维方式和西方人不同，西方人喜欢抽象，长于分析；而中国人喜欢具体，长于综合。由于风俗和语言上的差异，西方人习惯使用含有抽象意义的词语表达思想。此类句子在译成中文时如果处理不当，译文就会晦涩难懂，很别扭。因此，在进行英汉翻译时，应注意汉语习惯，对句子或词语进行妥善处理，力求使译文流畅、准确，使隐形的信息具体化、概括化。 1．将抽象名词（或代词）具体化 西方人在英语中经常使用抽象的概念来表示具体事物。在英语译为汉语的过程中，大多数情况下，将抽象化为具体，有助于提高译文质量。 1）I have too much to tell you and don't know what to begin with．我有许多话要对你说，却不知道从何说起。（原句中的much译为“许多话”，使译文流畅。） 2）Was ever such nonsense written？这样荒唐的东西有人写过吗？（nonsense“胡说八道、废话”在句中被译为“荒唐的东西”，译得恰到好处。） 3）The workshop director issued a communication outlining the details of the work to be done on the shutdown and safety rules to be followed during the work．车间主任签发了一份通知，概括了停机期间的工作项目以及工作中要遵守的安全规则。（communication意为“通讯、联络、传达”，译文中转译成“通知”，保持上下文自然通顺。） 4）You may have something of Roosevelt，something of a Newton in yourself；you may have something very much greater than either of these men manifested waiting your help to give it expression．你或许有罗斯福的才能，牛顿的智慧，你或许具有比他们两人更加伟大的本领，在等待着你将它表现出来。（句中三个something分别被译为“才能”、“智慧”、“本领”，充分展示出该词在特定的场合的丰富内涵。） （5）The need for engineers who can view the whole area of engineering，wide and complicated as it is ，as a single of field of operation of a few laws and methods
