中国俗语有趣翻译

中国俗语超有趣的英文翻译 前些天学用新的电脑软件把我累得够呛，我便向办公室同事们抱怨说老狗学不了新招了，一位同事笑说我是用中文讲英语。 教老狗学新招(teach an old dog new tricks)这样的说法我觉得其实根本不 用解释，有想象力的人都能明白，用来解闷再自然不过。 况且，以狗喻人在中文里的俗语也不少，譬如狗改不了吃屎，寓意真需要人解释才明白吗？ 这个俗语至今倒还没有听过人以贴切的英语表述，我一下也捉摸不出恰如其分的办法来说它，欢迎你做尝试。 不过中国人发明的另一个借狗讽人的词倒已有前人引入英语。 走狗 用“走狗”来描绘有权势者的帮凶在中国至少可以追溯到清朝孔尚任的《桃花扇》：“正排着低品走狗奴才队，都做了高洁清风大英雄。” 蒲松龄在《聊斋志异》里也有一句“操杖隶皆绅家走狗”。 这个词有人考证在1937年首次介绍到英文里来，但转换过程中不知为何加快了狗的步伐，从走改作跑，叫running dog。 犹如男扮女装 想一想，这种语言的反串同男扮女装或女扮男装有点相似。功夫好，环境对，能让人感觉耳目一新，至少可以轻松笑笑，弄好了甚至能帮助人刷新眼界，刺激思考。 和男女反串一样，许多人心里对它或多或少还是不能完全接受，至少在英国如此，觉得这种行为不守道德规范，男不男，女不女，不太像话。 但对赞同者来说，这样做的一个刺激恐怕也就恰恰在于它是越轨行为。 纸老虎 纸老虎这个中国说法传到英语里来，现在即便不说人人皆知，流行也颇广泛。在我手边的《简明牛津字典》的老虎一栏的十几行注释里，它在第三行就已经出现了。 纸老虎用来比喻外表强大但实际上空虚无力，至少可以追溯到《水浒传》第25回：“急上场时，便没些用，见个纸虎，也吓一交。”

汉语俗语与英语俚语对比与翻译

龙源期刊网 https://www.sodocs.net/doc/931205016.html, 汉语俗语与英语俚语对比与翻译 作者：武辉 来源：《知识文库》2019年第16期 将临沂方言俗语和英语俚语的内容、特点进行比较分析，寻找异同，以把握研究对象所特有的质的规定性。进而通过分析综合、分类比较揭示两者的异同，把握两者的内在联系与规律，并在具体实例中体现俗语和俚语的翻译原则。 临沂方言俗语和英语俚语既有相同之处，又有很多方面的不同。对二者对比可以发现，俚语和俗语的准确理解和使用可以摆脱枯燥无味的会谈，使交流过程更加灵活有趣，使两种不同文化下的交流者理解语言背后的文化内涵。 在俚语和俗语的语言对比中，主要探讨一种重要的语言现象——修辞。 1.1 比喻 临沂方言俗语在使用明喻时，会有明显的喻词，例如“好像”、“如”、“似”等。比如“吃饭像条龙，做活像条虫”、“病来如山倒，病去如抽丝”等等，都使用了明喻的修辞手法，喻词是“如”、“像”。也有一些使用暗喻的俗语方言，在本体和喻体中没有明显的喻词，但两者之间存在比喻的关系，如“当天井”意指“院子”，把院子比作了“井”; “雾露毛子”意指“小雨”等。英语俚语中明喻的使用十分普遍，如“third wheel”比喻“电灯泡”，又如“We are like peas and carrots”，“peas and carrots”是“形影不离”的意思。也有大量结构为“as+形容词+as+名词”运用明喻的俚語，如“as firm as a rock（坚如磐石）”、“as mute as a fish（噤若寒蝉）”等等。 1.2 夸张 临沂方言俗语“脸皮子比地屋子墙还厚”、“蹬不着天，打不着地”、“兄弟心连心，黄土变 成金”等都运用了夸张的修辞手法，强调了俗语中所表现出来的哲理或者表现出了更强烈的思想感情，给人以深刻印象。英语俚语中，“you are killing me”不是说“我被你杀死了”，而是通过“killing”来夸大对方的幽默感，表达“我快被你笑死了/你太幽默了”的意思。此外，英语俚语中还有一些和穿着有关的俚语表示夸张。如“knock someone’s socks off”意为十分兴奋、狂喜（excite and enthuse），兴奋的连袜子都掉了，夸大兴奋感。 1.3 委婉 临沂方言俗语中委婉修辞格的使用，可以避免冒昧和非礼，也可以增强表达的幽默感和诙谐性。比如人去世了临沂方言说“老了”或“走了”。在排泄方面，临沂人会说“我去解手” 或“我去方便一下”等。对此，英语也会用委婉（Euphemism）的俚语，表达为“can I use the restroom？（我能用下洗手间吗）”或者“where can I wash my hands？（哪有洗手间）”等。此外，一些女士也会用“powder my nose（补妆）”委婉表达上厕所。在使用委婉修辞手法时，临
