Chinese to English: 1. 玉器是光辉灿烂的中华民族历史文化宝库中一枝异彩独放的奇葩。中国玉器在新石器时代的河姆渡文化时期就开始出现。7000年来一直延续不断,发展至今。玉器在北欧、西欧、贝加尔湖等地的原始社会时期,以及南北美洲的印第安人和新西兰的毛里人都有制作,但都延续时间不长,无法与中国的玉器相提并论。悠久的制作历史,精湛的制作工艺,典雅的造型,绚丽的色彩,形成了中国玉器突出的民族特色。 Jade article is an exotic flower in Chinese brilliant historical culture. Chinese jade article have emerged since Neolithic Hemudu period 7000 years ago. Jade articles started to be manufactured in primitive Northern Europe, Western Europe and Baikal Lake, by Indian in Northern American and Maori in New Zealand.

Chinese jade article distinguished its ethnic features in long manufacture history, exquisite craftsmanship, elegant modeling and gorgeous colors. 2. “福”字表示好运,人们通常把它写在一张方形纸上,并倒着贴。因为在普通话里“倒”和“到”是同音字。因此倒贴的“福”字象征着春天和繁荣昌盛的到来。 福means good luck in Chinese, people usually write it on a square tree up side down. since in Chinese 到and 倒are homophones, and 倒means upside down, 到means coming, the upside down 福means the spring and prosperity is coming. 3. 二十四节气 1.立春2.雨水3.惊蛰4.春分5.清明6.谷雨7.立夏8.小满9.芒种10.夏至11.小暑12.大暑13.立秋14.处暑15.白露16.秋分17.寒露18.霜降19.立冬20.小雪21.大雪22.冬至23.小寒24.大寒 二十四节气The 24 Solar Terms: 立春Spring begins. 雨水The rains. 惊蛰Insects awaken. 春分Vernal Equinox 清明Clear and bright. 谷雨Grain rain. 立夏Summer begins. 小满Grain buds. 芒种Grain in ear.

2018年翻硕考研之中华文化术语翻译整理

2018年翻硕考研之中华文化术语翻译整 理 “中华思想文化术语”是由中华民族主体所创造或经涵容创新,凝聚、反映了中华民族传统文化基本特征、人文精神、思维方式、思想观念的主题词或关键词语。下面凯程考研跟大家分享的“玄览”,希望大家会有所收获。 玄览(xuánlǎn) 原指在深远虚净的心境下览知万物,是老子提出的认识“道”的一种方法。老子认为,只有摒弃一切杂念与成见,保持内心明澈如镜,才能静观万物,从而认识“道”,体会其精要。后世文艺评论家因为“玄览”所主张的心境与文艺创作及鉴赏所要求的审美心境相契合,遂用为文艺思想的重要术语,以说明文艺创作与鉴赏时应具有的超越一切欲望与功利的特殊心境。 Xuanlan ( Pure-minded Contemplation ) This term was first used by Laozi as a way to understand Dao. He believed that one cannot understand Dao by calmly observing everything unless one abandons all distracting thoughts and biases, and keeps one’s mind as clear as a mirror. Later literary critics believed that the state of mind as required for xuanlan has similarities with the state of mind required for literary writing and appreciation, thus they made it an important term to mean one’s state of mind must transcend all desires and personal gains in literary writing and appreciation. ******************************************** 【引例】 涤除玄览,能无疵乎?(《老子·十章》) 伫中区以玄览,颐情志于典坟。(陆机《文赋》) Is it for sure that there will be no flaws when one cleanses away all distracting thoughts and watches the world with a clear, peaceful mind? (Laozi) Standing between heaven and earth and watching the world with a clear, peaceful mind, the writer enriches and improves himself through reading great works of the past. (Lu Ji: The Art of Writing) 天下(tiānxià) 古多指天子统治范围的全部土地及统治权。古人认为,大夫的统治范围是“家”,诸侯的统治范围是“国”,天子的统治范围是“天下”。“天下”字面义是“普天之下”,实质指天子统治或名义之下的“家国”统合体所覆盖的全部疆域,并包括天下所有的人及国家的统治权。后演变指全民族或全世界。 Tianxia (All Under Heaven) This term referred mainly to all the land under the name of the Son of Heaven and the right to rule on such land. The ancient Chinese held that the rule of senior officials was over their enfeoffed land, and that of dukes and princes was over feudal states. The rule of the Son of Heaven was over all the land. Literally, tianxia (天下) means “all under heaven.”It actually refers to all the territory embracing the enfeoffed land and feudal states under the rule or in the name of the Son of Heaven, as well as all the subjects and the right to rule. The term has later

The fragrant bags were originally used for absorbing sweat, repelling insects and warding off evils. Scented sachets are not only useful, but also ornamental. They come in different shapes and sizes, such as round, oval and many others. And they are normally decorated with elaborate patterns, with each pattern symbolizing a special meaning.For instance,a double-fish or double-butterfly pattern smybolizes the love between a man and a woman;patterns like lotus or peony flowers symbolize women;pine and crane patterns symbolize longevity and a guava pattern is the symbol of lots of children.A nice scented sachet is not just an ornament,but more of something that contains cultural and historical richness. 2.中国民间艺术与中国哲学统一于“阴阳(yin-yang)生万物”这一理念。这一理念源于中国原始社会,是对人类的人生感悟的哲学注解。中国人祖先的哲学论断是“近看自己,远观他人”。要理解中华民族民间艺术的原始艺术,这一结论必不可少。人类的本能欲望是生 存并通过繁衍(propagation)继续存在。人生来的首要本能是求生,然后是长寿。从原始社会到今天,阴阳和永生的观念始终贯穿中国的社会生活和民族文化。中国民间艺术反映了社会的所有基本哲学理念。 翻译:Chinese folk art and Chinese philosophy are unified in the belief that yin-yang produces all living things in the world. Originated in Chinese primitive society, this was the philosophical explanation of human's perception of life. Chinese ancestors philosophical conclusion was to “look at oneself up close and other creatures from afar”,which is essential to the understanding of the primitive art to the folk art of the nation. To live and to continue life through propagation are the two instinctive desires of human. From birth, a person's first instinct is to survive, and then to live a long life. From primitive society to the present day, the view of yin-yang and perpetual life has permeated in all aspects of social life and the national culture of Chinese society.Chinese folk art reflects all of the basic philosophical concepts. 3.象棋(Chinese chess)两人玩的棋盘游戏,源于春秋战国时期的军事战略。早期的象棋由三部分组成:棋子、骰(dice)和棋盘。现代象棋没有骰子,它在棋子和棋盘方面与古代不同。棋盘有9行宽、10行长,共90个交叉点,构成方形网格 (grid)。棋子在交叉点上落 子或移动。对弈者在棋盘进行象征性的军很战争,部署马匹、战车,根据自己对棋局和游戏规则的理解组织军队。目前,中国象棋已传至全世界,进一步传承、发扬中国传统文化。

概述 中华民族是一个古老的民族,也是一个有深厚文化底蕴的民族。中国的传统艺术门类繁多、雅俗共赏,从悠扬动人的民间音乐到细腻缠绵的地方戏曲,从疏洁淡雅的水墨画到刚柔并济的书法,无不闪烁着智慧之光,令人赞叹不已。 舞狮 舞狮大约起源于南北朝时期,到了唐朝,狮子舞已发展为上百人集体表演的大型歌舞。 舞狮在中国是一项传统体育项目,也是一种传统文化艺术,从北方到南方,从城市到乡村,逢年过节及庆典盛事,都可以看到欢快的舞狮。民间认为舞狮可以很好地把百姓的欢喜心情表达出来,也最能烘托热闹气氛。舞狮尤以广东地区一带最为盛行。用来舞动的狮子外形威武,动作刚劲,神态多变,广东人称它为“醒狮”。 中国百姓对狮子有图腾般的崇敬感,狮子在民间有很多传说,其位置仅次于龙,因此舞狮也就带有了不少神秘色彩。人们相信狮子是吉祥瑞兽,而舞狮能够带来好运,所以每逢节日和喜庆活动,都会舞狮助兴,祈求吉利和如意。专用于节庆场合纳福迎祥的舞狮,代代相传,从古代民间传统的娱乐活动,发展成为具有健身功能的体育运动。舞龙和舞狮的热闹场面在中国的电影中也是很常见的。 吉祥图案 中国民间,流传着许多含有吉祥意义的图案。每到年节或喜庆的日子,人们都喜欢用这些吉祥图案装饰自己的房间和物品,以表示对幸福生活的向往,对良辰佳节的庆贺。 中国的吉祥图案始于距今3000多年前的周代,后来在民间流传开来。今天,吉祥图案任然是中国人生活中不可缺少的内容。 中国的吉祥图案内容及其广泛,这里介绍最常见的几种::“双喜”字,是双喜临门,大吉大利的意思,民间常在办喜事时采用。 “寿”字,字头经过加工美化,变成对称的图案,是长寿的意思。“福寿双全”,是由蝙蝠和寿字组成的图案。“蝠”与“福”同音。表示幸福长寿。 两个“有”字组成的对称图案,意思是顺也有,倒也有。在中国农村常用来贴在收藏谷物的器具上,表示丰收富裕。“百吉”,也叫“盘长”。它无头无尾,无始无终,可以想象为许多个“结”,谐“百吉”之音,作为百事吉祥如意的象征,也有福寿延绵,永无休止的意思。“五福捧寿”,图案中5个蝙蝠环绕一个寿字。五福是长寿、富贵、康宁、道德、善终。“四合如意”,4个如意从四面围拢勾连起来,象征诸事如意。 小孩儿满月与抓周 在中国,小孩儿的满月酒和抓周仪式独具特色。在孩子的成长过程中,这两
