汉语四字成语的翻译技巧 引言 根据一般概念,翻译是将一种语言的信息用另一种语言表达出来的活动,但这个概念仍有它的欠缺之处。它只提及语言的信息,未提及文化的信息。美国的翻译理论家尤金·奈达曾给翻译下过这样的定义:翻译是指从语义到文体在译语中用最贴切而又最自然的对等语再现原文的信息。虽然奈达把翻译扩大到语义和文体两个层面,但仍未提及文化信息的再现。本问拟从文化信息(culture information)在翻译中的再现这个角度加以讨论。 1四字成语的文化背景 1.1成语的定义 1.2成语的来源 1.2.1 成语的语言特征 1.2.2 成语的文化特征 1.2.3成语中体现的中西文化 2成语的翻译策略 2.1成语的直译 2.1.1直译的定义和特点 2.1.2直译的方法技巧 2.1.3直译的实际运用 2.2 成语的意译 2.2.1意译的定义和特点 2.2.2意译的方法技巧
