阅读评析下列有关谚语的解释译文及谚语的翻译效果，并进行翻译策略和翻译技巧的归类Proverbs are the popular sayings that brighten so much Latin American talk, the boiled-down wisdom that you are as apt to hear from professors as from peasants, from beggars as from elegantes. Brief and colorful, they more often than not carry a sting. 谚语是使拉丁美洲人民言谈生动活泼的流行俗语，是洗练睿智的语言，大学教授说，田野农夫也说，市井乞丐说，名门闺秀也说。谚语简洁明快、丰富多彩，往往带刺。 When a neighbor?s dismally unattractive daughter announced her engagement, Imelda remarked, “You know what they say, Senora: …There's no pot so ugly it can’t find a lid.?” And when her son-in-law blustered about how he was going to get even with the boss who had docked his pay, Imelda fixed him with a cold eye and said, “Little fish does not eat big fish.” 邻居一个丑八怪的女儿说她订婚了，伊梅尔达就说：“太太，你可听见大伙儿讲开了…罐儿配个盖子不发愁(姑娘再丑，找个汉子不必忧)。” 当伊梅尔达的女婿气势汹汹要找克扣他工资的老板算帐时，她冷眼瞪着他说：“小鱼吃得了大鱼吗?” One afternoon, I heard Imelda and her daughter arguing in the kitchen. Her daughter had quarreled with her husband's parents, and Imelda was insisting that she apologize to them. Her daughter objected.一天下午，我听见伊梅尔达和女儿在厨房争论开了。原来是女儿刚跟公婆吵了嘴，她非要女儿去赔不是不可。做女儿的却偏不依。 “But, Mama, I just can?t swallow them, not even with honey. They talk so big until we need something; then they’re too poor. So today when they wouldn?t even lend us enough to pay f or a new bed, all I did was say something that I?ve heard you say a hundred times: …If so grand, why so poor? If so poor, why so grand?? “可是，娘，我受不了，就是拌了蜜也咽不下呀！他们满嘴讲大话，可是一旦求上他们，却又穷得不得了。就拿今天来说吧，我们想借一点刚够买一张新床的钱，他们却不肯，我只得讲了些你平日讲过几百遍的话：…既然真阔气，何必又装穷？既然真正穷，何必摆阔气？? “Impertinent!” snorted Imelda. “Have I not also taught you, …What the tongue says, the neck pays for’? I will not have it said that I could never teach my daughter proper respect for her elders. 伊梅尔达鼻子哼了一声：“没家教！难道我还没有教过你：…舌头欠债，脖子还债??我才不愿意让人家指脊梁骨，说我根本就不会教女儿尊敬长辈。And before you go to beg their pardon, change those trousers for a dress. You know how your mother-in-law feels about pants on a woman. She always says, …What was hatched a hen must not try to be a rooster!?” 去赔不是吧，可先得用女服换掉男裤。你婆婆最讨厌妇女穿男裤你是知道的。她总是唠叨着。“孵出来的母鸡还想冒充公鸡?” Her daughter made one more try. “But Mama, you often say, …If the saint is annoyed, don’t pray to him until he gets over it.? Can?t I leave it for tomorrow?” 做女儿的还想争论一番：“可是，娘，你不是常说吗，得罪了菩萨也得等菩萨消了气再磕头嘛！明天再说难道不成吗?”． “No, no and no! Remember: …If the dose is nasty, swallow it fast.? You know, my child, you did wrong. But, …A gift is the key to open the door closed against you.? “不，不，不成！要记住；…药越难吃，越要快吃。?你知道，孩子，是你错了嘛！不过，…大门把你关在外，礼物送到自然开。? I have a cake in the oven that I was making for the Senora?s dinner, I will explain to the Senora. Now, dear, hurry home and make yourself pretty in your pink dress. By the time you get back, I will have the cake ready for you to take to your mother-in-law. 我炉里正烤着蛋糕，本是给太太当正餐的，这我可给太太解释解释。好吧，乖孩子，赶紧回家，穿一身粉红衣服，打扮得漂漂亮亮的。等你回来时，蛋糕也就好了，拿去送给婆婆。

浅论影响英语谚语翻译的因素 【摘要】谚语是一个民族智慧和精神的体现。本文对影响谚语翻译的历史背景、地理环境、风俗习惯、宗教信仰等因素进行了剖析，对英语谚语的翻译方法做了一些浅层次的探索。 【关键词】谚语翻译因素 一、引言 何谓谚语呢？英国作家和哲学家弗朗西斯•培根（Francis Bacon 1561-1626）曾经说过：“The genius，wit and spirit of a nation are discovered in its proverbs.”。谚语是一个民族天赋、智慧和精神的体现。谚语是语言词汇的重要组成部分，是语言的民族形式和各种手段的集中体现，是语言中的某些部分经过长期反复使用后自然沉积而形成的形式固定，简洁明快，寓意深刻的语言精品。 学习英语语言不可能不学习英语谚语，但是英语谚语是几千年英美文化的沉淀，特别是英美文化与汉语文化的差异增加了我们学习和理解的难度，尤其是谚语的翻译对于我们正确理解谚语本身的含义及其折射出的民族文化有举足轻重的作用。本人试图从影响英语谚语翻译的因素对英语谚语的翻译策略做一些浅层次的探索。 二、影响英语谚语翻译的因素 谚语是语言的核心和精华，是人类文明的积淀。谚语的翻译受到了多方面因素的制约，我们在翻译过程中需要从历史背景、地理环境、风俗习惯和宗教信仰等方面全方位考虑影响其含义的因素，正确理解和翻译谚语自身所蕴涵的深刻含义。 1.历史背景 社会历史的发展对语言的影响是巨大的。随着时代的变化，旧的语言会逐渐衰亡，新的语言会不断产生。在历史的进程中，谚语好比一面镜子，能清楚地反映其历史的变迁。因此我们在翻译谚语时需要考虑其历史背景，才能正确理解谚语的含义。

论英语谚语翻译技巧 1引言 谚语民俗文化的结晶，是人类智慧的火花。英语是一种高度发展的语言，在其漫长的发展过程中，吸收了欧洲多个民族语言的精髓。英语谚语更是博采众长，特别是从古希腊、罗马文化及《圣经》中吸收了大量的营养。英语国家的作家、思想家如培根、莎士比亚、蒲柏和富兰克林等更是为这座宝库增添了许多丰富多彩的内容。但是，英语谚语的主体还是来自民间。那些无从考证出处而又家喻户晓的谚语是一代代普通民众长期积累、流传下来的思想火花与语言经典。英语学习者通过英语谚语可以浏览英语国家思想与文化的精华，领略英语语言的精悍与传神。优美的译文不仅帮助读者更好地理解英语谚语的含义，而且会带您走进一座智慧的殿堂、语言的宝库。 2英语谚语的特点 英语谚语是经过长时间的使用而提炼出来的固定短句，是人民智慧的结晶。英语谚语大都具有鲜明的形象，适宜于用来比喻事物，因而往往带有浓厚的民族色彩和地方色彩。英语谚语有的意思明显;有的富予含蓄，意在言外，可引起丰富的联想;有的可能包含几个意思，必须根据上下文的具体情况来明确它的意义。英语谚语既是语言中的重要修辞手段，同时其本身也是各种修辞手段的集中表现。不少英语谚语前后对称，音节优美，韵律协调。 3英语谚语的翻译策略
由于英语谚语具有这些特点，翻译时就应当尽量保持这些特点。英语谚语不仅大量出现在文艺作品里，在政治和科学论文中也同样经常遇到。英语谚语翻译的好坏对整个译文的质量有直接的影响。因此，如何处理英语谚语是翻译中的一个极为重要的问题。译者除了忠实地表达原文习语的意义外，还应尽可能保持原文习语的形象比喻、丰富想象、修辞效果及其民族色彩和地方特色。英语谚语的语的英译汉有三种主要方法。 3.1直译法 “直译是把忠实于原文内容放在第一位，把忠实于原文形式放在第二位，把通顺的译文形式放在第三位的翻译方法。”(许渊冲，1984)即直译法是在不违背译文语言规范以及不引起错误的联想的条件下，在译文中保留英语谚语的比喻、形象和民族、地方色彩的方法。例如: After a storm comes a calm.风暴之后是宁静。 After rain comes fair weather.雨过天晴。 All things are difficult before they are easy.万事开头难。 As you sow，so shall you reap.自作自受。 As a man sows，so he shall reap.种瓜得瓜，种豆得豆。 The style is the man.文如其人。 Fish in troubled waters.浑水摸鱼。 The remembrance of the past is the teacher of the future.前事不忘，后事之师。 3.2意译法
