是“Plan”,还是“Planning”黄润娟英文“City Planning”这个词语译成汉语是“城市规划”,这个词语是城市规划专业中最常见的术语,也是中译英文章以及我们许多规划师在与外国城市规划师交流中极易译错的术语。
《中华人民共和国城市规划法》(以下简称《规划法》)英译本将“制订城市规划”译成“to map out the city,s planning”,这样译对吗?王宗炎先生在《辨义为翻译之本》一文中说道,“翻译是转述而非创作”。
转述就是用另一种语言准确无误地把原作的原意表达出来。
翻译标准“信、达、雅”,“信”是译文内容方面的标准;“达”和“雅”则是文字语句即形式方面的要求,它们是一个整体的两个方面。
而在这三个因素中,首要的是“信”,没有信,即没有了作者的本意,文字语句译得再好也毫无意义。
所以在翻译过程中首要任务是辨义,即要从文法上掌握字与字,字群与字群关系上的一些规律,又要在特定语境中寻求每个字或字群在句子中的相对价值。
要准确地翻译“城市规划”这个词组,就应首先弄清“城市规划”的确切意思,透彻地理解英文“plan”和“planning”的不同,造成这个术语误译的原因,一方面是没有辨析英文“plan”和“planning”语义上的差异,另一方面是没有吃透原文,没有将“城市规划”这个术语置于特定的语境中,全面正确地理解原意。
辨义不清和理解不透必然表达不当。
《规划法》第二条中“制定和实施城市规划,必须遵守本法”,英译本的译文是:“The Act is to be observ ed when city planning is formulated and implemented”这样译,与规划法的原意不符。
其准确的译法应该是“The Act is to be observ ed when a(city,s)plan is formulated and implemented.”《规划法》第三十条“建筑工程的选址和布局必须符合城市规划。

Town PlanningPurpose of Town Planning: Town Planning aims at providing a quality living environment, facilitating economic development, and promoting the health, safety, convenience and general welfare of the community by guiding and controlling development and the use of land. Following the principle of sustainable development, town planning seeks to bring about an organized, efficient and desirable place for the community to live and work in. As land suitable for development in Hong Kong is scarce, there is a need to strike a balance in utilizing the limited land resource to meet the competing demands for housing, commerce, industry, transport, recreation, nature conservation, heritage preservation and other community needs.Planning Organisations: The Planning and Lands Branch of the Development Bureau is in charge of the policy portfolios of planning, land use, buildings and urban renewal in Hong Kong. Taking directives from the Development Bureau, the Planning Department (PlanD) is responsible for formulating, monitoring and reviewing land use at the territorial level. PlanD also prepares district/local plans, area improvement plans, the Hong Kong Planning Standards and Guidelines as well as undertakes actions against unauthorized land uses.The principal body responsible for statutory planning in Hong Kong is the Town Planning Board (TPB). It is formed under the Town Planning Ordinance (TPO) and served by the PlanD. Comprising predominantly non-official members, the TPB oversees the preparation of draft statutory plans, considers representations to such draft plans and considers applications for planning permission and amendments to plans. There are two standing committees under the TPB, namely, the Metro Planning Committee and the Rural and New Town Planning Committee. Under the TPO, the TPB may also appoint a committee among its members to consider representations to draft statutory plans.Planning System: Hong Kong’s planning system comprises development strategies at the territorial level and various types of Statutory and Departmental Plans at the district/local level. Guiding the preparation of these plans is the Hong Kong Planning Standards and Guidelines, relevant development related policy and principles and community views.Territorial Development Strategy:The strategy aims at providing a broad planning framework to guide future development and the provision of strategic infrastructure in Hong Kong. It also serves as a basis for the preparation of district plans. The findings of Hong Kong 2030: Planning Vision and Strategy (the HK2030 Study), a study to formulate the planning framework for Hong Kong up to 2030, were promulgated in October 2007. The HK2030 Study has adopted sustainable development as its over-arching goal. The recommended strategy, focusing on the three broad directions of providing a quality living environment, enhancing economic competitiveness and strengthening links with the Mainland, aims to help Hong Kong achieve its vision as “Asia’s world city”.With increasing economic integration and social interaction between Hong Kong and the Mainland, cross-boundary surveys are commissioned regularly to collect statistical information on various aspects of cross-boundary activities, e.g. travel pattern and behaviour, Hong Kong residents’ experience of and aspirations for taking up residence in the Mainland. The findings of these surveys provide valuable input for the planning of cross-boundary infrastructure and the formulation of development strategies. The planning study titled Coordinated Development of the Greater Pearl River Delta Townships, jointly commissioned by Hong Kong, Guangdong and Macao to formulate a regional development framework, was completed and its findings were promulgated in October 2009.Statutory Plans:Two types of statutory plans are prepared and published by the TPB under the provisions of the TPO. In 2005, the TPO was amended to streamline the plan-making process and planning approval procedures, enhance the openness and transparency of the planning system and strengthen planning enforcement control in the rural New Territories.The first type is Outline Zoning Plan (OZP) which shows the land use zones, development parameters and major road systems of an individual planning area. Areas covered by OZPs are in general zoned for uses such as residential, commercial, industrial, green belt, open space, government/institution/community uses or other specified purposes. Attached to each OZP is a Schedule of Notes showing the uses which are always permitted (Column 1 uses) in a particular zone and other uses for which prior permission from the TPB must be sought (Column 2 uses).The second type is Development Permission Area (DPA) Plan. DPA Plans are prepared to provide interim planning control, and development guidance for rural areasin the New Territories until more detailed OZPs are prepared. DPA Plans indicate broad land use zones and are also accompanied by Schedules of Notes showing Column 1 and 2 uses. DPA Plans are effective for a periodof 3 years and will be replaced by OZPs.Information on statutory plans, related guidelines and procedures as well as the agenda and decisions of the open meetings of the TPB and its Committees can be accessed online from the TPB website at .hk/tpb/ and the Statutory Planning Portal at .hk/. The public may also observe those open meetings in the Public Viewing Room located in North Point Government Offices, 333 Java Road, North Point, Hong Kong.Departmental Plans: Outline Development Plans and Layout Plans are administrative plans prepared within the framework of the statutory plans. With a much larger scale, these departmental plans show more detailed level planning parameters e.g. site boundaries, location of access points and footbridges, specific types of government or community uses to facilitate the coordination of public works, land sales and land reservation for specific uses.Views from the public are essential considerations for the formulation of development strategies and preparation of plans. Public engagement in the form of public forums, workshops, exhibitions, etc. has become a very important component of the planning process.Hong Kong Planning Standards and Guidelines: It is a reference manual setting out the criteria for determining the scale, location and site requirements of various land uses and facilities. It is used in the preparation of town plans and planning briefs and is a tool that helps to regulate development.Urban Renewal and Regeneration: The Urban Renewal Authority (URA) is a statutory body established in 2001 to speed up the renewal of old urban areas and to execute the Urban Renewal Strategy formulated by the Government. PlanD co-ordinates with the URA under the statutory provisions in the planning of urban renewal and regeneration projects for the improvement of the old urban areas.The Government has launched a review of the Urban Renewal Strategy in 2008 in three stages – envisioning, public engagement and consensus building, and is scheduled for completion in 2010. The Strategy will provide a broad policy guidance for urban renewal in Hong Kong.New Town and New Development Areas: Large-scale new town development in the New Territories began in the early 1970s. PlanD’s District Planning Offices have worked closely with the Civil Engineering and Development Department’s Development Offices to prepare plans and oversee the development of these new towns. At present, nine new towns, namely, Tsuen Wan, Sha Tin, Tuen Mun, Tai Po, Yuen Long, Fanling/Sheung Shui, Tseung Kwan O, Tin Shui Wai and North Lantau are in various stages of development and will accommodate about four million people upon full development. However, large-scale new towns will not be pursued in the foreseeable future. Instead, medium-scale new development areas such as Kai Tak and new development areas in the New Territories will be developed.Planning Enforcement: The Town Planning Ordinance provides the Planning Authority with enforcement power against unauthorized developments (UDs) within the DPAs or the replacement OZPs. Within these areas, all developments are unauthorized unless the development is either in existence before the gazettal of the DPA Plans, permitted under the Plan or covered by valid planning permissions.PlanD’s Central Enforcement and Prosecution Section is responsible for undertaking enforcement and prosecution actions against the UDs. They investigate complaints and referrals from the public or other Government departments, and carry out regular patrols to identify possible UDs. Once a UD is confirmed, statutory enforcement and prosecution actions will be taken as appropriate. Topical Studies: PlanD also carries out a wide range of topical studies. In the light of a slower population growth projected for the next 30 years, greater planning efforts are now focused on improving the quality of the living environment and local area improvements, particularly for the older urban cores and the harbourfront.For local areas, the Pedestrian Plans for Causeway Bay, Tai Po Market and Kwun Tong, Area Improvement Plan for Tsim Sha Tsui and the Area Improvement Plan for Shopping Areas of Mongkok have been completed. Two studies on enhancing the rural township of Lau Fau Shan and Sha Tau Kok and surrounding areas are in progress. Other ongoing studies include a feasibility study on Urban Climatic Map and Standards for Wind Environment, and Air Ventilation Assessment studies for specific areas and sites.The harbour planning framework formulated under the Harbour Plan Study is now being reviewed to take into account the changing public aspirations of the harbourfront. The review is conducted in close association with the Harbour-front Enhancement Committee, an advisory committee representing a wide range of interests in the community. The harbour planning principles and guidelines have been completed and promulgated. For the waterfront areas, the Kai Tak Planning Review has been completed. and The Urban Design Study for the New Central Harbourfront is near completion and the Hong Kong Island East Harbourfront Study is ongoing.In order to formulate a planning framework to guide the future use of the large area to be released from the Frontier Closed Area, PlanD commenced a planning study titled Land Use Planning for the Closed Area to examine the development and conservation potentials of the area. The study is scheduled for completion in 2010. With a view to formulating a planning framework for the Kwu Tung North, Fanling North and Ping Che/T a Kwu Ling NDAs to address the long term housing and employment needs in Hong Kong, the North East New Territories New Development Areas Planning and Engineering Study was launched in June 2008.ThePlanning and Engineering Study on Development of Lok Ma Chau Loop, a joint effort of Hong Kong and Shenzhen, commenced in June 2009. The main objective of the Study is to formulate a comprehensive plan for development and implementation of the developments and infrastructure in the Loop as well as the area in its vicinity for the mutual benefits of both Hong Kong and Shenzhen.The Planning Study on Liantang/Heung Yuen Wai Cross-boundary Control Point and its Associated Connecting Road in Hong Kong which aims to examine the planning, land, traffic, environmental and engineering issues of the new crossing and its associated connecting road has been completed. Implementation of the new crossing has commenced and is expected to complete in 2018.Planning Information: There is a Hong Kong Planning and Infrastructure Exhibition Gallery located at G/F, Murray Road Multi-storey Car Park Building showcasing Hong Kong’s planning proposals and major infrastructure projects.

绿色城市规划英文作文高中Green city planning is an important aspect of urban development. It involves the integration of sustainable and environmentally friendly practices into the design and construction of cities. This can include the implementation of green spaces, renewable energy sources, and efficient public transportation systems.One key element of green city planning is the incorporation of green spaces into urban areas. Parks, gardens, and other natural areas can provide important environmental benefits, such as improved air quality, reduced urban heat island effect, and increased biodiversity. Additionally, green spaces can also enhance the overall quality of life for city residents by providing recreational opportunities and promoting physical and mental well-being.Another important aspect of green city planning is the promotion of renewable energy sources. This can include theinstallation of solar panels, wind turbines, and other clean energy technologies to power city infrastructure and buildings. By reducing reliance on fossil fuels, cities can decrease their carbon footprint and contribute to global efforts to combat climate change.Efficient public transportation systems are also a key component of green city planning. By providing accessible and reliable public transportation options, cities can reduce traffic congestion, air pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions. This can also improve mobility for residents and reduce the need for private vehicle ownership, further contributing to environmental sustainability.In conclusion, green city planning is essential for creating sustainable and livable urban environments. By incorporating green spaces, promoting renewable energy sources, and implementing efficient public transportation systems, cities can reduce their environmental impact and improve the overall quality of life for residents.。
1-2 The Pre-Industrial RevolutionWelcome to this first session.In today's session, we'll explore some of the ideas that dominated the design of settlements prior to the dawn of the Industrial Age.In the 19th century, when industrialization came to cities,everything changed.But before that there was a long continuity of ideas about how to design cities.It's totally foolish to imagine that we could explore several thousand years of history of cities in just one brief session.However, what we can do is to talk about the leading ideas, the things that dominated the design of settlements for that long period of time and help you recognize them in your communities.Many of you who live in cities that date back 100s of years, and the traces of earlier settlements can be seen by just by walking around in your city. But those of you who live in more recent cities, will also probably be surprised to see the number of ideas of contemporary cities that have their roots in what had happened in earlier cities.Human's may have been designing and planning settlements since the dawn of civilization.Many of the earliest settlements were created in informal ways.People simply gathered around the camp fire, built houses around it and and the settlements emerged from that kind of informal process.But beginning at least 3000 years ago people began deliberately designing settlements.As civilizations grew and became more stable and amassed resources, conscious ideas entered into the design of places.The first idea is the wall.Defense became essential, and for over2,000 years,the design of fortifications became a critical part of planning cities. Even after fortifications came down, and the moat was drained, the idea of creating limits to the city remained.The second idea is the grid.As land ownership was dispersed to families and people there was a need to subdivide property in some logical way and record it on maps.There was a need also to define public areas like streets and squares.A grid plan was the easiest way to map on the ground and the easiest to subdivide.Gridiron cities were created by the Greeks as they settled Asia Minor 500 years BC.And, grids were the favorite form of new cities when the Europeans conquered the Americas in the 15th century.As this map of Lima, Peru shows.The third idea is the axis.Some parts of the city have been more important than others throughout history.And some people have been more important than others.Even in a gridiron city like Bejing, the importance of the Emperor was reinforced by creating a central axis and only he was permitted to walk along.In Renaissance Rome, Pope Sixtus, the Fifth, used the axes of a way of uniting the separate and districts of the city and the residue of the monuments that have been left behind, and by creating important plazas and buildings.The fourth idea is the city square.InEuropean cities, public squares were Created to become the living room of the city.A place for all important events.Often they started as open market places.And as markets moved indoors, they became spaces used for multiple purposes.The Piazza Ducale, in Vigevano,Italy, is typical of such central spaces.But in England, in parts of Northern Europe, city squares could also be green spaces, offering relief from the dense city.This idea was carried over into the new world, in the design of new cities.The final idea I'll discuss here is the cloister. Places for worship in the homes of religious deities had a special role in the pre-industrial city. Spaces were created for monasteries,houses of worship, temples and other kinds of shrines and these were often given prominent locations in the city.Bangkok's many wats were the landmarks that defined the character of that city, and do to this day.Church's often defined the skylines of American cities and marked the center of neighborhoods and districts of the city.The sacred spaces were often accompanied by schools, and meeting houses, and residents for all those who they served.All five of these elements can be found in cities with long histories.So let's take a look at how they found their place in the design of a sampling of important cities,from antiquity to the 19th century.In the year 1800, the largest and probably the most important city in the world was Chang-An,in central China, located along the Silk Road.It had over a million people.It was the seat of the Tang Dynasty and had legations from all the important countries of the world.It also housed the political and economic structure of China.Today, Chang-An is known as Xian.The design of Chang-An actually began much earlier, with some of the walls and many of the temples built in100 BC.When the T ang Dynasty made it its capital,it became the prototype for all Chinese cities,including the prototype for Beijing.The original wall of Chang-An was five kilometers by six kilometers, and the city had 11 gates.A central axi s, led to the administrator city and ultimately to the Imperial Palace.The city had a grid plan, with each very large block subdivided into larger or smaller lots, depending on the stature of the occupant.There were two markets near the gates of the city.And hundreds, literally hundreds of T aoist, Buddhist and other temples scattered throughout the city,almost one on every block.Modern day Xian occupies only about one-third of the original city of Chang-An.But it remains one of the few large walled cities in the world with gates in their original locations.The grand axis of the city remains with the drum tower occupying a key locationalong it.The large main streets remain but the life of the city exists on thestreets and alleyways between them, much as it did more than a thousand years ago.The diversity of blocks within the grid is maintained,including the Muslim quarter, which is quite unique for cities in China.Today's Beijing shows the unmistakable elements of Chang-An.Now let's jump to the 12th and 13th centuries inEurope.Most European cities invested heavily in building fortifications to defend their population, secure those who fled the land around the city in the face of invading armies.An example is Klagenfelt, Austria, notable for it sorderly planning of the streets and squares in the town.Roads connect the gates of the town for quick mobilization of troops.But there was also a need to secure their territory.Throughout much of France and the remnants of the Roman Empire, noblemen such as Raymond the 7th of Toulouse built new towns on the perimeter of the lands they controlled.These towns called bastides were also designed as a grid plan.Montpazier is one of the best preserved and we can see today just how it functioned.The market square is located at the precise center, surrounded by the administrative buildings and shops.The church occupies an adjacent block with its cloistered green.While much of the wall has been abandoned,some of the gates remain, and the town is still largely occupied.A real revolution in city design began in Rome in the 16th century.After the fall of the Empire, Rome fell into ruins, and was almost deserted.But with the relocation of the papacy back to Rome and the ambition of the popes who lodged there and we should say, the money collected from the Christian realm all over Europe, were almost ready for a transformation. Pope Sixtus, the Fifth provided the impetus.Although he reigned for only five years, Sixtus the Fifth laid down a new street plan for the city connecting major monuments.It involved axis and view corridors which connected the city visually.New piazzas were added, including the Piazza del Papolo,with its twin churches and vistas to the distance.Sixtus' axis set the stage for the creation of the17th century, St. Peters Square, one of the greatest achievements in city design in history and the icon of Baroque city planning.Sometimes disaster provides the opportunity for changes in city design.In 1666, much of central London burned to the ground.And architects and designers of the day were quick to rush in with their proposals as to how it should be rebuilt.Unfortunately, it was rebuilt pretty much the way it was before.But the schemes by Christopher Wren and John Evelyn had far-reaching influence on the design of new settlements in the New World. Less than 15 years later, William Penn, a Quaker, was given a large land grant by the King, on the Delaware River shores of its American Colony.It was probably as much to get rid of Penn and his colleagues, who were constantly needling the king.He called upon a surveyor to lay out a new settlement.Thomas Holme clearly had in mind the unsuccessful schemes for London.Thomas Holme proposed a settlement with a gridiron plan running from the Delaware river to the Schuykill river about two miles away.There would be two major streets, roughly in the cardinal directions,and five squares.One in each quadrant, and one in the center called city square.The blocks and lots would be large enough so that every one living there could have a small orchid or keep animals on their property.William Penn saw it as creating a Greene Country Towne.Philadelphia was slow to develop.20 years after its founding, only a few blocks have been occupied, and it took fully two centuries to fill out the plan from river to river.But they stuck with the plan.Public buildings were added as they were needed,and streets became lively places for residents to meet.And housing which began as townhouses with large green spaces behind, evolved, became more dense, taller and while the blocks remain the same.It was not until the turn of the 20thcentury that city square was built upon, when a new City Hall and Courthouse was constructed.In its time, they were the largest public buildings in America.Philadelphia's Four Squares remain the outdoor center of its four center city neighborhoods and they're loved by all.I lived a block from Ritten house Square and considered it my outdoor living room.There were many others wonderful designs for the new settlements in the Americas.At Savannah, Georgia, Charles Oglethorpe created a plan in 1733for a city where virtually every housefaced a Square.Savannah remains today one of the mostliveable cities in the country.In Australia,Colonel William Light laid out a city quite similar to Philadelphia in 1823, and he surrounded it with a green belt.When it came time to expand, rather than consume the green belt, North Adelaide was added as another free-standing city.Adelaide remains one of the most livable cities in Australia.The combination of all of these ideas in pre-industrial cities was the design for Washington,the national capital that replaced id by Charles L'Enfant, it had a gridiron plan.A monumental axes that emphasized the importance of public buildings and monuments.Public squares and monuments were for both the federal city and the everyday city,and blocks that varied depending upon whether they were commercial areas or residential blocks.Washington would later become recast as the greatest example of the city beautiful movement in America.But that's a story for another session and I will say no more about Washington.What we see through this brief excursion through the history of the ideas about city design, is that many ideas we take for granted today,actually has their origins in pre-industrial cities dating back to antiquity.The early plans for cities provide the armature for future design.They can of course be modified, as Rome was by Sixtus the 5th, o Paris was through Baron Von Houseman's efforts.Or many other American cities were changes through urban renewal and redevelopment in the1970s and 1980s.But the form of a city is in its DNA,inherited from previous generations.It's important to understand where those ideas came from.In the next session, Johnathan Barnett will discuss how some of those changes that occurred to cities as a result of industrialization.You're welcome to join him.。
