旅游宣传材料的汉英翻译


• 意译(Free Translation )对保留原文形象及文化、 历史内涵至关重要。
• • • • • • • • • • “三潭印月” (Three Pools Mirroring the Moon) “紫来洞” (Purple Source Cave) “寒山寺” ( Cold Mountain Temple) “拙政园” (Garden of Humble Administrator) “狮子林” (Lions Grove) 演示文稿2.ppt
• 6.改写adaptation
• 改写主要适用于以下几种情况: • 1)对原文句子结构的改写 • 西方人是直线思维,多采用演绎推理,开门见山, 先总括,再分说; • 而中国人是螺旋式思维,多采用归纳推理,迂回 曲折,先分说,再总括。 • 翻译时有必要对原文的结构加以调整,使其与西 方读者或游客的习惯相吻合。如:
• 在四川西部,有一处美妙的去处。它背倚岷山主峰雪宝 顶,树木苍翠,花香袭人,鸟语婉转,流水潺潺。这就 是松潘县的黄龙。 • One of Sichuan’s finest scenic spots is Huanglong (Yellow Dragon), which lies in Songpan County just beneath Xuebao, the main peak of the Minshan Mountain. Its lush green forests, filled with fragrant flowers, bubbling streams, and songbirds, are rich in historical interest as well as natural beauty. • 译文用两个句子改写了原文,并且将“松潘县的黄龙” 放在了句首,这样更符合英语的写作方式,也更符合西 方游客的思维习惯。
1. 旅游景点名称的翻译
• 音译法(Transliteration ) 适用于行政区划 名称如城市、乡镇、县城、村庄等的翻译,如 • 北京(Beijing) • 八达岭(Badaling) • 北戴河(Beidaihe) • 西安(Xi’an) • 长安(Changan), Everlasting Peace • “银川” Yinchuan, Silver Stream;
• 4. 借用
“借用手法指借典译典,借译语表达式和形 象来翻译源语有特定文化含义的表达式和形象, 以求等效”(何自然等,2004)。


• 如将济公比作罗宾汉(Robin Hood),将西施 比作埃及艳后(Cleopatra ),将梁山伯与祝英 台比作罗密欧与朱丽叶(Romeo & Juliet ), 将苏州比作意大利的威尼斯(Venice),将银川市 比作小麦加(Mecca ),将孔子比作希腊的亚里 斯多得,等等。

Mountainous, boundless, especially charming, magnificent...
• 再如: • 她(黄河)奔腾不息,勇往直前,忽而惊涛裂岸, 势不可挡,使群山动容;忽而安如处子,风平浪 静,波光潋滟,气象万千。 • It tears and boils along turbulently through the mountains and at some places, flows on quietly with a sedate appearance and glistening ripples.

• 绍兴是越瓷的产地。 • Shaoxing is the home of Yue Porcelain. Yue is a state name used to refer to the Shaoxing region in Ancient China.

• 3. 解释
• 解释是指增加的部分是对字、词、句的字面意思的解释。这样, 一方面能让外国游人及读者建立起读音何意义的联系,了解汉 语名称的字面意思,另一方面也使他们了解了这些名称的由来, 增加了旅游的趣味性。如: • 花港观鱼:Hua Gang Guan Yu (Viewing Fish at Flower Harbor)孤山: Gushan (Solitary Hill) • 湖南省位于长江中下游南部,东经108度至114度,北纬24至30 度。因地处洞庭湖之南,所以叫做湖南。 • Huan Province lies just south of the middle reaches of the Changjiang (Yangtze) River between 108’ and 114’ E longitude and 24’ and 30’ N latitude. As it is also situated south of Lake Dongting, the Province has the name Huan, which means “south of the lake”. 演示文稿2.ppt
