第一篇：清明節中譯英參考譯文

清明節

The Pure Brightness Festival The Pure Brightness Day, one of the 24 Seasonal Division Points, is also an ancient traditional festival in China.It falls in the third lunar month or around April 5th in the solar calendar, when the spring scene is radiant and enchanting and the air is refreshing, hence, its name.清明是二十四節氣之一，也是中國一個古老的傳統節日。清明節在農歷三月，公歷4月5日左右，此時春光明媚，空氣清新，清明節因此得名。

On this day, people have the custom of sweeping the graves for their ancestors, take an outing in the countryside and wear a willow twig on the head.清明節人們有掃墓祭祖和踏青插柳的習俗。

The Chinese have the tradition to respect the aged.Thus, when the day comes, every family will go to the countryside to hold a memorial ceremony at their ancestors’ tombs.People get rid of any weeds growing around the tomb, burn incense and offer food and paper money to show their remembrance and respect for their ancestors.This is called “visiting a grave” or “sweeping a grave”.中國人有敬老的傳統, 因此，每到清明節這天，家家戶戶都要到郊外去祭掃祖先的墳墓。人們為墳墓除去雜草，在墳前點上香，擺上食物和紙錢，表示對祖先的思念和敬意。這叫上墳，也叫掃墓。

At this time, the grass of the countryside is sprouting, willows along rivers have put forth new buds;it is fresh green everywhere, a good time for an outing.In ancient times, people used to wear a willow twig in their hair at this time because it was supposed to be able to drive away ghosts and disasters.清明時節，小草發芽，河邊柳樹長出嫩芽，到處一片新綠，正是遠足的好時候。古人常常把樹枝戴在頭上（插柳），據說插柳可以驅除鬼怪和災難。

第二篇：中譯英技巧之讓譯文簡潔明了

中譯英技巧之讓譯文簡潔明了

漢字語境下長大的人一般都很注意“偶語易安，奇字難適”的漢語音韻特點，對“互文見義”的表達，非但不覺累贅，反而樂此不疲。所以，諸如“無窮無盡”“冷若冰霜”“當事者迷，旁觀者清”之類語義顯然重復的說法，在漢語母語者眼中絲毫沒有不妥。然而，講求嚴謹，注重邏輯的英語則十分忌諱語義重復，英語中除了像save and sound, bag and baggage等少數幾個押頭韻習語外，一般難以見到類似的無意義重復。故而在影視譯配和會議翻譯的中譯英工作中，一定要在注意英語的語言習慣。請看下面例子：

1.道路崎嶇不平。

原譯：The road is rough and bumpy.2.祝你圓滿成功！

原譯：I wish you complete success!

3.倉庫全部塌下來。

原譯：The warehouse completely collapsed.4.耳聽為虛，眼見為實。

原譯：Hearing is vague, seeing is believing.以上例句中的漢語原文十分自然，英語翻譯則顯累贅。以句1為例，“崎嶇不平”乃漢語互文見義表達，同時也是出于 協調平仄效果的考慮，中國人覺得并無不妥。但在英語中，rough 與bumpy 卻屬于明顯無意義重復，英美人并不認可。句2的情形也一樣，success已經是指“圓滿成功”，否則就不能說success.句3中的 collapse指的就是“全部塌下”，如果僅是部分塌下，則不宜使用collapse.至于例句4，“耳聽為虛，眼見為實”也是屬于互文見義的強調型修 辭，譯成英語只需取其一義即可。所以，上述例子的正確英譯應該是：

1.The road is rough.2.I wish you success!

3.The warehouse collapsed.4.Seeing is believing.不妨再來看幾個類似句例：

他仍然還是個單身漢。

原譯：He still remains a bachelor.改譯：He remains a bachelor.或者：He is still a bachelor.必須堅決禁止賭博。

原譯：Gambling must be firmly banned.改譯：Gambling must be banned.他們向我揮手。

原譯：They waved their hands to me.改譯：They waved to me.她是一位著名女企業家。

原譯：She is a famous female businesswoman.改譯：She is a famous businesswoman.當然，累贅型“中式英語”絕不僅限于以上類型，中國人的修辭風格、行文風格以及基于音義的對仗、排比等，也很容易導致累贅型英譯。比如2006年“世界歷史文化名城 市長論壇南京宣言”中有這樣一句話：

我們承諾：追求天人和諧，人際和諧，身心和諧，追求人人相親，人人平等，天下為公，努力實現 我們城市的和諧統一。

這里所說的“天人和諧”、“人際和諧”、“ 身心和諧”、“人人相親”、“人人平等”、“天下為公”，無疑都體現中華文化的內涵。但是，如果將它們原樣照搬地直譯成英文恐怕就難免出現冗長和累贅。以“身心 和諧”和“天下為公”為例，它們的英譯分別是harmony between body and mind和the whole world as one community.可在“世界歷史文化名城市長論壇”的宣言中鄭重其事地提出要追求基于陰陽五行之上的 “harmony between body and mind” 是不是恰當呢？至于在列舉了那么多的“和諧”追求，以及“人人相親”“人人平等”的目標后，再另加一個漢字語境下聲勢奪人，英語語境下卻平淡無奇的對“天 下為公（the whole world as one community）”的追求，似乎也有點不倫不類?！澳暇┬浴钡挠⒄Z文本對這段話是這樣翻譯的：

We are committed to achieving harmony between man and nature, in people-to-people relationships, and in the development of urban societies.We will work for fraternity, equality, and justice.原文中“身心和諧”、“人人相親”、“ 人人平等”、“天下為公”的“四字格”表述在譯文中通通被融進了整句話的意境和精神中，不需另譯出。而這樣做的結果是譯文反而愈顯蘊義明晰、簡潔得體。既傳達出原文的本質含義，又避免了照搬漢語行文風格而導致的英文表述拖泥帶水，值得我們借鑒。

我們看到改譯后的文字不僅簡介，而且完全能表達原文的含義。在法律翻譯和合同翻譯中，言簡意賅是再好不過的了，畫蛇添足反而無法符合本地化翻譯的要求。

作者：郭燦金

“胎教”似乎是件新鮮事，是個新名詞。然而，我國古代就有非常完整的胎教理論，并且“胎教”這個名詞也是古人創造的。

中國是世界上最早提出胎教的國家。在二千多前的《黃帝內經》中，就有關于“胎病”的論述?！洞蟠鞫Y保傅》對于胎教更作出了明確的規定：“古者胎教，王后腹之七月，而就宴室。太史持銅而御戶左，太宰持斗而御戶右。比及三月者，王后所求聲音非禮樂，則太師缊瑟而稱不習；所求滋味者非正味，則太宰依斗而言曰：不敢以待王太子?！睋妒酚洝酚涊d，中國古代第一個對其子進行胎教的是周文王的母親太任，因為受了嚴格的胎教，周文王生下來非常聰明。文王的孫子周成王也是接受過胎教之后而生，長大后也是智力超常。周朝就是這樣用胎教的方法培養出一代代的理想接班人。到了漢代，各種書籍中出現了大量胎教內容的記載和論述，初步形成了胎教學說。宋代名醫陳自明在《婦人大全良方》就有專篇“胎教論”。賈誼《新書》也有專門的《胎教》篇?！额伿霞矣枴芬灿涊d了相關內容：王后懷孩子三個月時，就要搬出皇宮，讓她住在別宮里，眼不看不該看的東西，耳不聽不該聽的東西，所聽音樂和所嗜口味等，都要按禮儀進行節制。到了明代，胎教學說更進一步完善和全面。清代陳夢雷等人把歷代胎教學說匯集一起，立為“小兒未生胎養門”。

古人還曾這樣總結過：“訓子須從胎教始，端蒙必自小學初?！闭婵芍^，“胎教”自古不新鮮。

①foetus education，nothing new since antiquity

Author: Guo Canjin

“foetus education”, seemly a new word, something strange, actually was created by people far from ancient times with a complete set of theory of antenatal training.It is China that first put forward the idea of foetus education.Treatments on fetal disease was recorded in the book back to 2,000 years —The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine.The detailed prescriptions about prenatal training in Da, Sir.’s Book of Rites, Baaofu, read “ According to the ancient foetus education, the queen would be suggested to move to side-room Palace(a living place next to the room of Emperor)in her 7th month pregnancy, where Taishi(also called court historian or Grand Tutor, a formal name in ancient)holding the Tong(a kind of musical instrument)awaited the queen’s instructions beside the left of the door and meanwhile another official Taizai holding Dou(a kind of cooker, sometimes used as tableware)waited at the right of the door.In the last three months of queen’s pregnancy, Taishi would softly touch the musical instrument and pretend unfamiliar to play those pieces not living up to courtesy even though required by the queen.On the other hand, if ordered the improper menu, Taizai would not dare to cook by saying his incompetence in serving crown prince.According to Records of the Grand Historian of China, the first Chinese in ancient times taking the prenatal training was King Wen’s mother Tairen.Having been received strict antenatal training, King Wen of Zhou was born very clever.And King Wen’s grandson King Cheng of Zhou was also exceptional talent after receiving foetus education.Just in this way could Zhou dynasty educate many ideal successors generation after generation.When it came to Han Dynasty, a number of records and comments about foetus education emerging in public books initially formed the foetus education theory.In Song Dynasty, a famous doctor named Chen Ziming, wrote an essay specially for foetus education theory.In addition, JiaYi also made his article On Antenatal Training And Nursing published in New Book.Some relevant information were set down in Family Instructions of the Yan's: in the third month of queen’s pregnancy, she had to move from palace to side-room, not to see those should not see or hear those should not hear, and on matter what music queen would like to listen to or what dishes to eat, they must be performed rigorously and temperately according to proprieties.Advanced to Ming Dynasty, this theory was further improved and perfected.In Qing Dynasty, Chen Menglei and others collected those papers about foetus education in past dynasties together, titled “ An Educational Guidebook To Unborn Babies.The ancients used to make a summary as follows: child education should be started from womb and shape education direction from elementary stage.①古時候胎教，王后懷孕七個月后，就到宴室（宮殿名，側室，燕寢之旁（燕寢，古代多指帝王寢息之所）).太史(應該是太師，古代三公之一(三公—太師、太傅、太保)，責為倫道經邦，為太子師法）拿著銅（古代的一種樂器）侍奉在門的左邊，太宰（其職貴是輔佐君主治理國家）拿著斗（斗，一種餐具兼炊具方形，口大底小，有柄）站在右邊，最后三個月（即產前三個月），王后要求聽的樂曲不符合禮的標準，這樣的話太師就會撫摸著樂器說自己不熟悉，不會演奏；所要求吃的滋味菜肴不是正確的，這樣的話太宰就會拿著斗不敢烹調菜肴，說自己不敢服侍王太子。

2、五·四隨想

作者：澧 人

屈指數“五四”，今年九十齡。這段歲月可不算短，期間吞沒了無數的英雄塊壘，美人情腸，真乃人活一世，草木一秋。但也有許多人雖死猶生，比如以陳獨秀、胡適和魯迅為代表的“五四”先賢們。

在“五四”一代文化人中，最具歷史影響力的人物當數胡適和魯迅。古人云：“春者，天

①之本懷；秋者，天之別調。”將此觀點作一引申，胡適和魯迅，大略也可視為本懷和別調之關系。不少學者慨嘆，魯迅一生有大孤獨橫亙于心，但在我看來，就心性和稟賦而言，胡適或許比魯迅更孤獨。我們可以從嵇康、徐渭、李贄等古人身上找到魯迅的影子，但要從中國文化史上找一個胡適的前身或影子，則基本上無望。所以，理解魯迅并不比理解胡適更為困難。

魯迅棄醫從文，但終生不脫醫家的眼光。他深知中國人的靈魂病得很重，但究竟如何療救，四顧彷徨的他又苦無良策；胡適棄農從文，卻又像農學家那樣希望地里長出好莊稼。他帶回了新的種子，并將畢生精力耗在克服水土不服這一難題上。這是兩個為國家命運而心力交瘁、苦惱萬分的中國人，并因為這種苦惱而高貴。

正值“五四”九十周年，有關民主的話題自然受到人們的關切。前不久，俞可平在《半月談》上發表文章，題為《關于民主亟待厘清的六個關系》。這篇文章最引人注目之處，在于提出“以發展民生去代替發展民主，是一種錯誤的思維”。是的，在當下中國，阻礙民生發展的諸多問題，如財富分配不公、納稅人負擔沉重、公款消費數量驚人、權錢交易活動猖獗、經濟領域壟斷色彩依然濃厚等，都非發展民主不能解決。當然，發展民主的意義不只局限于發展民生，它還有助于人們獲得更多的自由、尊嚴和真實。人類不是單純的經濟動物，除了企盼生活在富裕中，還希望生活在自由中，生活在尊嚴中，生活在真實中。不可侵犯的權利使人安享自由，手中握有的選票讓人活得有尊嚴感，強有力的輿論監督幫助人們獲得真實的信息。

Random Thoughts On May Fourth Movement

Author: Li Ren

“May Fourth” has been 90 years old.90 years are long enough to kill a great many heroes’ and beauties’ hopes.It’s usually said that lives are as changeable as seasons.However, represented by Chen Duxiu, Hu Shi, and Lu Xun, a number of sages of May Fourth, still live on in spirit.Among those May Fourth intellectuals, the most influence are surely Hu Shi and Lu Xun.Ancient cloud: “Spring is the true color of the nature;autumn is just an additional emotional appeal.” Extension of this sentence means the general relationship of nature and scene between Hu Shi and Lu Xun.Many a scholar sighs with regrets that Lu Xun is lonely all through his life, nevertheless, in my opinion, from the point of temperament and endowment, maybe Hu Shi is more lonely than Lu Xun.We also can see Lu Xun’s image from Ji Kan, Xu Wei, Li Zhi and others.But it is basically in vain to look for a precursor or a figure like Hu Shi in Chinese culture.So it is not so hard to understand Lu Xun than Hu Shi.Lu Xun abandoned the study of medicine to another field of literature and looked at things in the view of a doctor.He knew very well that Chinese were badly spiritual ill but he still wondered how to find the way to cure them;on the other hand, Hu Shi shifted from the agriculture domain to writing.Like farmers who wish the land can yield good crops, Mr Hu took new seeds home and devoted his whole life to the problem of accustoming seeds to new circumstances.They are two great persons putting all their efforts on country’s destiny, eventually mentally and physically exhausted, however, becoming noble for what they are annoying.At the 90th anniversary of May Fourth Movement, undoubtedly the topic of democracy is being discussed.Not long before, Yu Keping had his one article published on China Comment titled—On six need-to-be-clarified democratic relations, the highlight of which is that it puts forward a point—it is a wrong thinking way to develop people's livelihood instead of democracy.In present China, there are actually many problems hindering the development of people’s livelihood, for instance the unjust distribution of wealth, heavy burden on taxpayers, the surprising number of misuse of public funds, rampancy of power-for-money deal, strongly monopoly of the economic field, and so on.All these can not be solved without developing democracy.It is sure that the development of democracy is not limited to the development of people’s livelihood and it also contributed to the pursuit of more freedom, dignity and benefit for people.Human beings, not merely economic animals, besides to live an affluent life, they also expect to live a free life, a life with dignity, and a real life as well.Inviolable rights enable people to enjoy their freedom so a vote in hand gives people a feeling that they live in dignity, and strong public opinion helps people get the real information.①春天才是大自然本來的面目, 秋天只是額外加出來的景象、情調
