翻译的过程2

翻译的过程2
Chapter II The Proc• 翻译的过程大体上可分为理解、表达、校 核三个阶段。 • 理解与表达的关系：以理解为前提的往返 反复的统一过程。 • 不可缺少的校核阶段
理解什么？
• 理解语言现象 译者必须上下有联系地理解原文的词汇含 义、句法结构和惯用法等。 Eg. 1. Suddenly the line went limp. “I’m going back,” said Kurth “We must have a break somewhere, wait for me. I’ll be back in five minutes.”
Which one is better?
• Translate literally, if possible, or appeal to free translation. • 能直译就尽量直译。直译能保存原作的某 种比喻手法或修辞手法，因而能达到与原 文近似的语言效果。 • 不能直译就采取意译。如果译文不能以与 原文相同的形式来再现原文的内容，只好 意译。
Literal translation
• 直译是指既忠实于原文内容又忠实于原文 形式的翻译方法（原文的比喻、形象和民 族或地域色彩）。 • 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， 1978）
• We were moved to tears by his words. • 直译不是死译或硬译 • We saw an acrobat standing on his head.
Necessity of free translation
• 1. He had about as much chance of getting a job as of being chosen mayor of Chicago.

翻译的过程The Process of Translation翻译的步骤Warming-up Exercises1. They gave the boy the lie.2. Fire goes wherever it can, but it prefers to follow a draught.3. The room was easily traced by the noise that was coming from it.4. I shall not expect you until I see you.参考译文1. 他们指责男孩说谎。

（他们指责男孩编造的这个谎言。

）2. 火是无孔不入的，可是它更爱窜入通风的地方。

3. 循声而去，便轻而易举地找到了那间屋子。

4. 你随便什么时候来吧。

翻译的过程通常包括理解、表达和校核三个阶段。

在翻译实践中，理解是表达的前提，但理解与表达通常是互相联系、相辅相成的统一过程，不能截然分开。

译者在理解原文的同时，也在选择表达方式；在表达的同时，又会进一步加深理解。

Three steps of translation翻译的三个步骤1．理解理解是翻译过程的第一阶段。

它既包括对语言现象、文化现象的理解，又包括逻辑关系的理解，对有可能发生歧义的语句要善于分析，进而做出正确判断。

例1：He allowed the father to be overruled by the judge, and declared his own son guilty. ( overrule: rule against)译文1：他允许法官驳倒父亲，宣布他自己的儿子有罪。

译文2：法官的责任感战胜了父子私情，他还是宣判（自己的）儿子有罪。

例2：If we try to implement these harebrained ideas (that English should be replaced by Hindi and the 15 recognized state languages), India will become a Tower of Babel. (harebrained: very foolish)译文1：如果我们试图实施这些轻率而愚蠢的主张，以印度语和其他15种官方承认的各邦语言取代英语的话，印度就会成为一座通天巴别塔。

Restructuring 指重组目标语言。也就是打破 源语言的语言结构框架，重新组织目标语 言，合理并句、断句、拆句、选词造句或 选定句型调整顺序，把源语言中的重要信 息按目标语的语言习惯进行恰如其分的表 达，最后呈现给读者。例如：
例1：Some had beautiful eyes, others a beautiful nose, others a beautiful mouth and figure: few, if any, had all. (Thomas Hardy: Tess of the d’Urbervilles)

The Process of Translation


所指层次（The referential level）
Whether a text is technical or literary or institutional, you have to make up your mind. summarily and continuously, what it is about, what it is in aid of. what the writer's peculiar slant on it is.
例
i.e. 唐长安城包括今西安城和近郊区，面积相当于现在西安城的七倍 半，城周有三十六点七公里，城内居住着约一百万人口。
译： The Chang’an City in the Tang Dynasty included today’s Xi’an city
proper and its suburbs. Its area was seven and a half times as large as Xi’an city. Its circumference was 36.7 kilometers. There lived about one million people in the city.
appreciate and evaluate awesome and amazing tidy and ordered
自然层次（Naturalness）
the translation makes sense; it reads naturally, that it is written in ordinary language, the common grammar, idioms and words that meet that kind of situation.

英语翻译的过程


确切理解单词意义的方法
翻译过程的理解同一般的阅读理解有区别： 英译汉过程中的理解，指解读原文以最大 程度地获取原文所蕴含的信息量。 方法： • 有效地扩大词汇量，减少理解中的“拦路虎”。 • 根据上下文语境和词语搭配进行判断 • 重视熟悉单词的一词多义现象。
课堂互动：判断哪个译文正确？
1. I was so angry that I couldn’t find my tongue.
Texts
理解是英汉翻译过程中的第一步，也是整个过程中 最关键的一步。译者能否准确地表达原文的思想内 容，关键在于是否准确理解了原文。因此，理解是 表达的基础，是表达的先决条件。没有正确的理解 就不可能有忠实的译文，当然也谈不上通畅、自然 的表达。
Question：How to accurately comprehend the original text? 例1：If it worked once, it can work twice.
I. Lead-in
Warming-up question:
Please tell us what is your own process of translation?
II. Explanations on the process of translation
The four basic processes in translating consist of (1) analysis of the source text, (2) transfer from source to target language, (3) restructuring in the target language, (4) testing of the translated text with persons who represent the intended audience.

英语翻译的步骤The Procedures for Translation


4. Her bright red hat killed the quiet colour of her dress. 5.That killed him around here. 6. He is killing me. 7. The troops of the two countries are kept at arm‟s length. 8.If I want you I‟ll ask for you.
理解之后－－表达


How to give an exact representation after you have acquired accurate comprehension: 表达是理解的继续和升华，表达的好坏与理解 的深度，译文语言的熟练程度，翻译技巧的掌 握程度有关．
2. 2. 1 关键词的表达

准确理解是确切表达的前提，理解的诸多 方面如图所示。词义的选择
固定搭配、成语、短语、惯用词组 理解 歧义 矛盾修辞 逻辑关系 夸张 重复 平行结构 正确理解语言现象, 不仅要了解句子的字面意义，还要 了解句子的内涵意义。必须上下有联系地、全面地理解原 文的词汇含义、语法关系和逻辑修辞。不能孤立地看待一 句一词，因为同一个词或一个词组，在不同的上下文和不 同的语法结构中，往往有不同的含义。有时不同词义的词 却被认为是同义词，而同一词在不同的上下文中又产生了 不同的含义。 篇章 段落 词句
