“四⽉天”可否翻译成“April day”?近⽇翻看赵彦春教授的博客,发现有⽹友质疑赵教授将《你是⼈间的四⽉天》⼀诗中的“四⽉天”译为“April day”,这位⽹友还将“April day”联想为四⽉的第⼀个节⽇愚⼈节(April Fool’s Day)。
笔者原本打算对赵译《你是⼈间的四⽉天》做系统的鉴赏、评价,并且和黄新渠教授的英译版本进⾏对⽐分析,以探索诗歌翻译的技巧和策略。
但觉得在做系统的评价之前有必要先对“四⽉天”可否译为“April day”这个⼩话题稍加探讨,对“April day”的⽤法进⾏溯源、考证。
⾸先需要指出的是,英语“Day”表⽰“节⽇”的时候字母“D”为⼤写,例如Valentine's Day,Father's Day等等,当然也包括April Fool’s Day,有⼀定英语基础的⼈都应该了解,看到“X X Day”就知道是某个节⽇或主题⽇,这⼀点不必赘述。
当我们看到“China”和“china”的时候会⾃然⽽然地将前者译为“中国”,将后者译为“瓷器”或者“陶器”,有时⾸字母⼤⼩写的变化会引起单词意义、性质的改变。
这位⽹友表⽰虽然“A p r i l day”不是“A p r i l Fool’s Day”,但他表⽰会这样联想。
这样说的⼈缺乏对“day”和“Day”意义和⽤法上的区分,再者,联想是受语境限制和约束的,赵彦春教授英译的是林徽因的⼀⾸诗,不单单是⼀个标题或“四⽉天”这个词语,“A p r i l day”也要整⾸诗中去理解、品味。
学英语的⼈应该了解,英语⼀词多义的情形数不胜数,⽽最终能帮助我们选定⼀个词在某句话或某段⽂章中最恰当含义的便是语境。
在阅读、写作、翻译、做学术研究的过程中最忌讳、最不可取的便是断章取义、偷换概念。
就像那位⽹友解释的,“中⽂‘四⽉天’即指具体的春天,⼀种景象,但也是指⼀个抽象的意向,新的⽣命欣欣向荣。
”那英语中的“A p r i l day”是什么意思,可不可以表⽰“四⽉天”的含义呢?当字典帮不了我们的时候,还有另外⼀个途径便是到语料库中进⾏检索、⽐对、验证。

英语表达的顺序为\"月、日、年\",因此2004年11月8日就可写成November 8th, 2004,还可表示为November eighth, 2004。
另外,也可写成\"日、月、年\",8th November, 2004即the eighth of November, 2004。
1)“日子”用基数词和序数词都可以接受如:March 28th, 2009 / March 28, 20092)“月份”和“日子”可以换位英式:28 March, 2009美式:March 28,20093)缩写时容易造成误解,英式:“日/月/年”;美式“月/日/年”如:2009年3月1日英式缩写:01/03/2009美式缩写:03/01/2009两种方法都存在,英式写法的顺序比较受欢迎,国际使用较多。

January--1月在罗马传说中,有一位名叫January的守护神,生有先后两副脸,一副回顾过去,一副要眺望未来。

February--2月每年2 月初,罗马人民都要杀牲饮酒,欢庆菲勃卢姆节。
这一天,人们常用一种牛、草制成的名叫Februa的鞭子,抽打不育的妇女,以求怀孕生子。

英语2月F ebruary,便是由拉丁文Februar-ius (即菲勃卢姆节)演变而来。
March---3月3月,原是罗马旧历法的1 月,新年的开始。

为了纪念战神玛尔斯,人们便把这位战神的拉丁名字作为3月的月名。
英语3月 March,便是由这位战神的名字演变而来的。

Maybe I should circle the April in calendar or at least I have to remember this month.It will be the last April in my two-year college if I can not get an opportunity to go further sdudy.TEM-4 is coming soon, and everybody is preparing for it to get the certificate, which seems like the only purpose for our English majors. But maybe it is still a question that whether it can show one's ability in English very well since we have never took part in an interview on a real sense.However, I think we are lucky enough. Maybe in the next one or two weeks, there will be a real interview for our students who want to be an English teacher. It is a training school where we can really rich and improve ourselves to some extent. To my point of view, it is a gift from God or some other kind-hearted men. And so I will try my best to take advantage of it no matter the result is good or not.Well, just as a saying goes, chance favors the minds that are well prepared. I think we will be the master of our fate and captain of our career ship if we want to keep e on!。
