第四篇：每日諺語(yǔ)

語(yǔ)言之間的互相翻譯不但有利于各國(guó)文化的交流，更有利于語(yǔ)言的發(fā)展。在做翻譯工作時(shí)最怕碰上習(xí)語(yǔ)多的文章。為了忠于原著，譯文心須既保持它的外國(guó)風(fēng)味，又要符合本國(guó)文字的要求，而翻譯習(xí)語(yǔ)卻是最難把這兩個(gè)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)一同達(dá)到的。成語(yǔ)(set phrases)、諺語(yǔ)(proverbs)、格言(sayings)、俗語(yǔ)(colloquilisms)、典故(allusions)和俚語(yǔ)(slangs)為了要適當(dāng)?shù)匕淹鈬?guó)語(yǔ)言中的習(xí)語(yǔ)翻譯出來(lái)，有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的翻譯工作者一般采取下列幾種方法：

1.直譯法----就是按照文字的字面意思直接翻譯過(guò)來(lái),例如漢語(yǔ)中的“紙老虎”直譯成“paper tiger”,外國(guó)人看起來(lái)不但深明其義，而且覺(jué)得很是傳神，所以現(xiàn)已成為正式的英美民族語(yǔ)言。另外，我們口中的“丟臉”也被直譯為“l(fā)ose face”,“走狗”譯成為“running dog”。由于中國(guó)熱而大為外國(guó)人歡迎的“功夫”音譯成“kung fu”等也算是直譯法的一種。

2.同義習(xí)語(yǔ)借用法——兩種語(yǔ)言中有些同義習(xí)語(yǔ)無(wú)論在內(nèi)容、形式和色彩上都有相符合，它們不但有相同的意思或隱義，面且有相同的或極相似的形象或比喻。翻譯時(shí)如果遇到這種情況不妨直載了當(dāng)?shù)鼗ハ嘟栌?。比方說(shuō)漢語(yǔ)中有一句習(xí)語(yǔ)是“隔墻有耳“，英語(yǔ)中卻有”walls have ears”,兩句話字、義兩合，無(wú)懈可擊。我們說(shuō)“火上加油”，英國(guó)人則說(shuō)”to add fuel to the flame”，兩者也完全一樣。

3.意譯法——有些習(xí)語(yǔ)無(wú)法直譯，也無(wú)法找到同義的習(xí)語(yǔ)借用,則只好采用意譯的方法來(lái)對(duì)待.例如漢語(yǔ)中的”落花流水”用來(lái)表示被打得大敗之意,譯成英文便是“to be shattered to pieces”?！盀鯚熣螝狻靶稳萸樾位靵y不堪，可用“chaos”來(lái)表達(dá)。

4.省略法—漢語(yǔ)中有一種情況，就是習(xí)語(yǔ)中有的是對(duì)偶詞組，前后含意重復(fù)。偶到這種情況時(shí)可用省略法來(lái)處理，以免產(chǎn)生畫(huà)蛇添足之感。例如“銅墻鐵壁”可譯成“wall of bronze” 已經(jīng)足夠，實(shí)在無(wú)須說(shuō)成“wall of copper and iron”?！敖终勏镒h”在意義上也是重復(fù)的，所以譯成“street gossip”便可以了。

5.增添法—為了要更清楚地表達(dá)原意，有時(shí)要結(jié)合上下文的需要，在譯文中增添一些說(shuō)明。例如“樹(shù)倒猢猻散”可譯成“Once the tree falls, the monkeys on it will flee helter-skelter,”其中helter-skelter是“慌慌張張”之意，是增添的成分，原文雖無(wú)其字而有其義，加了使形象突出，有聲有色。

6.還原法—一些習(xí)語(yǔ)源于外語(yǔ)，翻譯時(shí)可使之還原。例如“夾著尾巴”應(yīng)譯成”with the tail between the legs”；“戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)販子”是英文

“war-monger”的中譯；“藍(lán)圖”則是“blue-print”的中譯等.上面提出的六種習(xí)語(yǔ)翻譯法是比較常用的，如果能掌握好，已夠一般的需要。在一些著作的翻譯本中，往往還看到作者利用注釋來(lái)說(shuō)明習(xí)語(yǔ)的意義，因?yàn)橛行┝?xí)語(yǔ)只能在歷史背景和典籍出處說(shuō)明后才能充分表表明其意思，三言兩語(yǔ)是無(wú)法表達(dá)的。

(一)直譯法

直譯法翻譯就是在不違背漢語(yǔ)語(yǔ)言規(guī)范的前提下直接把原語(yǔ)的表達(dá)形式移植到譯語(yǔ)中,這樣既忠實(shí)傳達(dá)原語(yǔ)的文化內(nèi)涵,同時(shí)兼顧保持文化內(nèi)涵的載體———語(yǔ)言的表達(dá)方式,做到“神形兼?zhèn)洹?。采用直譯法可以保留原文的形象和色彩,直譯后語(yǔ)言一目了然,不至于產(chǎn)生誤解。例如,an olive branch橄欖枝A rolling 1 stone gathers no moss滾石不生苔a gentleman′s agreement君子協(xié)定go through fire and water赴湯蹈火從以上例子我們不難看出,這些習(xí)語(yǔ)的字面意義、形象意義幾乎相同,且其隱含意義也相同,我們說(shuō)此類習(xí)語(yǔ)的字面意義和形象意義所傳達(dá)出來(lái)的文化信息是相同的,它們?cè)谶M(jìn)行英漢互譯時(shí)可以直譯。譯文不但保留了原文的形象,而且增加了閱讀的趣味。

(二)意譯法

許多英漢習(xí)語(yǔ)用直譯法不能保留原文的表達(dá)形式,又無(wú)相對(duì)應(yīng)的習(xí)語(yǔ)套用,這時(shí)就得用意譯法,即不依照原文習(xí)語(yǔ)的風(fēng)格,而根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行意譯,把原文含義表達(dá)出來(lái)。例如:You′d better pull up your socks next term.譯為:下學(xué)期你得加把油。“pull up your socks”是英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ),意譯“鼓起勁”,如直譯為“掛起你的襪子”,會(huì)使讀者不知所云。Peter was a dog in the man over the microwave oven.譯為:他就是霸著那微波爐。A dog in the manger狗占馬槽是一個(gè)源于《伊索寓言》的習(xí)語(yǔ)。意為“自己不能享用又不讓別人享用”,譯文只用一個(gè)“霸”字就能體現(xiàn)這個(gè)習(xí)語(yǔ)的內(nèi)在含義。He was left and high and dry.譯為:他處在進(jìn)退兩難的境地。“high and dry”是指船擱淺了,不可直譯。

(三)代換法

代換法是指有些英語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ)在比喻意義上同漢語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ)基本相似,但在形象或比喻手法上略有不同,這時(shí)我們可以套用漢語(yǔ)中相似的習(xí)語(yǔ)來(lái)翻譯英語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ)。例如:To dismiss John from his job when his wife has just left him would be hitting a man when he is down.約翰的妻子剛剛離開(kāi)他,現(xiàn)在又要解雇他,簡(jiǎn)直是落井下石。Mary never accepted an invitation unless Anne was included in it.It was a case of love me, love my dog.如果有人邀請(qǐng)瑪麗而不請(qǐng)安妮,瑪麗就不會(huì)去,這真是要求人家愛(ài)屋及烏了。以上習(xí)語(yǔ)在英漢互譯中,意義與色彩幾乎相同。所以用譯入語(yǔ)的對(duì)等習(xí)語(yǔ)來(lái)翻譯原語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ),即代換法,是非常有用的翻譯方法。

(四)直譯意譯兼用法

由于歷史文化的差異以及有些習(xí)語(yǔ)還含有比喻意義和象征意義,某些習(xí)語(yǔ)僅采用直譯的方法來(lái)處理勢(shì)必會(huì)造成意義的缺失,影響讀者對(duì)譯文的理解。在這種情況下,我們采用直譯加注的方法,補(bǔ)出習(xí)語(yǔ)的潛在意義及與之相關(guān)的背景知識(shí)。在翻譯英漢習(xí)語(yǔ)過(guò)程中,用直譯和意譯相結(jié)合的方法,即采用直譯保留原文比喻形象的同時(shí),又兼用意譯補(bǔ)充說(shuō)明,以使譯文恰當(dāng)?shù)乇磉_(dá)原文的含義,可以收到很好的效果。例如: The staff member folded like an acc on jion.譯為:這位工作人員像合上的手風(fēng)琴,一聲不吭了。(“像合上的手風(fēng)琴”是直譯,加上意譯“一聲不吭”,使得意義表達(dá)更加清楚。)His disapproving attitude toward cars is simply sour grapes, the fact is that he would like to have a car but can′t afford to buy one.他對(duì)汽車持不贊成的態(tài)度純粹是酸葡萄(得不到就說(shuō)它不好)的邏輯,事實(shí)上,他也想有一部汽車,只是買(mǎi)不起罷了。A little pot is easy hot.壺小易熱，量小易怒。

(五)直譯加注譯法

英漢中許多習(xí)語(yǔ),尤其是含有典故的成語(yǔ)賦有特定的文化含義,為便于讀者充分領(lǐng)會(huì)和完全吸收其特殊的文化意蘊(yùn),翻譯中以直譯加注為宜,即直接翻譯出來(lái),然后加注,予以解釋。例如,the heel of Achilles譯為:阿基里斯的腳踵。注:阿基里斯是希臘神話中的英雄,出生后被其母倒提在冥河浸過(guò),除未浸到水的腳踵外,其他部位刀槍不入,后被敵人用箭射中腳踵而死。因此,The heel of Achilles(Achilles′heel)比喻惟一的致命弱點(diǎn)。綜上所述,我們切不可忽視英語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ)的理解與翻譯。習(xí)語(yǔ)是任何語(yǔ)言不可缺少的一部分,很難想象有一種沒(méi)有習(xí)語(yǔ)自身所具備的真正含義,那么我們就會(huì)在學(xué)習(xí)和生活中遇到阻止我們進(jìn)步的障礙。另外,英語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ)的來(lái)源廣泛,其分類也較多。這反映出了它豐富、幽默的內(nèi)涵。

我們通過(guò)它自身的這些特點(diǎn)不難看出英語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ)在揭示英美國(guó)家各民族的豐富多彩的文化背景方面起著重大的作用。英語(yǔ)是一種國(guó)際性語(yǔ)言,世界各民族人民都在使用英語(yǔ)。因此說(shuō),我們對(duì)英語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ)以及英美國(guó)家的文化若想有更好的認(rèn)識(shí),就有必要很好地掌握英語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ)的翻譯。

英漢習(xí)語(yǔ)的異同與翻譯探析

習(xí)語(yǔ)除了固定的短語(yǔ)或表達(dá)法外,還包括口語(yǔ)體、諺語(yǔ)、格言乃至一些俚語(yǔ)。英漢兩種語(yǔ)言同屬較為發(fā)達(dá)的語(yǔ)言,故都擁有大量習(xí)語(yǔ)。英漢習(xí)語(yǔ)源遠(yuǎn)流長(zhǎng),都有著極其豐富的文化底蘊(yùn)。英漢習(xí)語(yǔ)反映了兩個(gè)不同民族的不同的歷史、經(jīng)濟(jì)生活和思維方式。英漢習(xí)語(yǔ)有極強(qiáng)的概括和表現(xiàn)能力,形象生動(dòng),寓意深刻,韻味雋永,為人們所喜聞樂(lè)見(jiàn)。英漢習(xí)語(yǔ)比較

論文 004km.cn 畢業(yè)論文

1.1 英漢習(xí)語(yǔ)的基本共性

1.1.1 結(jié)構(gòu)的固定性

習(xí)語(yǔ)從其結(jié)構(gòu)來(lái)看,有其自身的完整性,其中各個(gè)組成部分是固定的,不可任意拆開(kāi)或替換,如“pull somebody’s leg”(愚弄某人)不可變單數(shù)為復(fù)數(shù);“by twos and threes”(三三兩兩)不可按漢語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ)改為“by threes and twos”.又如漢語(yǔ)的“去偽存真”不能說(shuō)成“去假存真”,“三言兩語(yǔ)”不能說(shuō)成“兩語(yǔ)三言”,雖然前者和后者意思沒(méi)有很大不同,但是相沿成習(xí),習(xí)慣上人們說(shuō)的是前者,不是后者。

1.1.2 語(yǔ)義的統(tǒng)一性

習(xí)語(yǔ)是語(yǔ)言中約定俗成,相沿習(xí)用的定型化詞組,在語(yǔ)義上是個(gè)不可分割的統(tǒng)一體,不能按字面意義來(lái)理解,如“胸有成竹”并非字面之義,而是比喻做事之前已有通盤(pán)考慮或周密計(jì)劃。又如“沉魚(yú)落雁”并非描述沉下去的魚(yú)和落下去的雁,而是用來(lái)描述女性無(wú)與倫比的美貌。英語(yǔ)的習(xí)語(yǔ)也是如此,不能逐字理解,而應(yīng)從整體去認(rèn)識(shí)其特殊性和習(xí)慣性,如:do somebody brown(使某人上當(dāng)),show the white feather(顯示膽怯)等。

1.1.3習(xí)語(yǔ)的習(xí)用性

習(xí)語(yǔ)的習(xí)用性指習(xí)語(yǔ)應(yīng)用的廣泛性,社會(huì)成員在各種交際場(chǎng)合和各種文體中經(jīng)常使用習(xí)語(yǔ),從而不斷豐富習(xí)語(yǔ)。習(xí)語(yǔ)以其簡(jiǎn)短的形式、生動(dòng)的形象和恰當(dāng)?shù)谋扔鞫钍苋藗兊南矏?ài),作為全民族的智慧結(jié)晶和全社會(huì)的語(yǔ)言財(cái)富,在廣泛的范圍里為人民大眾所確認(rèn)和應(yīng)用,因此,很多習(xí)語(yǔ)具有極強(qiáng)的生命力。

1.2 英漢習(xí)語(yǔ)的基本差異

1.2.1 風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣的不同

英國(guó)人愛(ài)狗,視狗為伴侶,因此,常以狗的形象比喻普通人的生活行為,如:

love me, love my dog(愛(ài)屋及烏)。中國(guó)雖然也養(yǎng)狗,但一般人在心理上厭惡鄙

視這種動(dòng)物,常用它形容和比喻壞人惡行,如“狗腿子”,“狗仗人勢(shì)”等。英國(guó)人和中國(guó)人信仰不同,英國(guó)人多信仰基督教,有不少習(xí)語(yǔ)與之有關(guān),如:go to the church(做禮拜),power of the keys(教皇的權(quán)力)。在中國(guó)佛教是影響最大的宗教,習(xí)語(yǔ)有不少來(lái)自佛教,如“半路出家”、“做一天和尚撞一天鐘”等。

1.2.2 歷史文化背景不同

英漢習(xí)語(yǔ)通常來(lái)自本民族的歷代文獻(xiàn)或民間口語(yǔ)。英語(yǔ)和漢語(yǔ)的歷史文化背景不同,習(xí)語(yǔ)的來(lái)源也各異。本國(guó)人雖能了解,外國(guó)人常不知所云,比如中國(guó)自古以來(lái)以農(nóng)業(yè)為主,從事農(nóng)業(yè)者占很大比例,因此,在漢語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ)中有很大一部分是農(nóng)諺,如:“枯木逢春”,“斬草除根”。英國(guó)是個(gè)島國(guó),英國(guó)人鐘愛(ài)海洋,所以英語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ)中有很多來(lái)源于航海業(yè),如:plain sailing(一帆風(fēng)順),drop anchor(拋錨;定居下來(lái))等。另外不少習(xí)語(yǔ)來(lái)源于古代寓言故事或詩(shī)文等,這類習(xí)語(yǔ)可稱典故習(xí)語(yǔ)。英漢典故有各自的民族淵源,非三言兩語(yǔ)能闡述清楚,如漢語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ):“三顧茅廬”、“未雨綢繆”等。英語(yǔ)中也有類似的習(xí)語(yǔ),如:fly on the wheel(狂妄自大的人)。

1.2.3 比喻上的不同

英漢有許多同義或意義相近的習(xí)語(yǔ),但由于它們是兩種不同生活經(jīng)驗(yàn)的產(chǎn)物,有很多就不可能不明顯的體現(xiàn)出兩種不同民族形式,比如中國(guó)人常用習(xí)語(yǔ)“雨后春筍”來(lái)形容一般事物的迅速發(fā)展和大量涌現(xiàn),而英語(yǔ)中的同義語(yǔ)是“l(fā)ike mushrooms”(像蘑菇一般),這是因?yàn)橛?guó)不產(chǎn)竹,甚至連“bamboo”這個(gè)詞也是引進(jìn)來(lái)的外來(lái)語(yǔ)。諸如此類的習(xí)語(yǔ)比比皆是,如:“never fish nor fowl”的是“非驢非馬”,“no smoke without fire”的是“無(wú)風(fēng)不起浪”。習(xí)語(yǔ)的翻譯

2.1 直譯法

直譯,指在不違背譯文語(yǔ)言規(guī)范以及不引起錯(cuò)誤聯(lián)想的條件下,在譯文中保留原習(xí)語(yǔ)的民族特色、語(yǔ)言風(fēng)格和比喻形象的方法,如漢語(yǔ)的“紙老虎”直譯成“paper tiger”,外國(guó)人看起來(lái)不但深明其義,而且覺(jué)得很傳神,所以該詞現(xiàn)已成為英美民族正式語(yǔ)言。當(dāng)原習(xí)語(yǔ)的隱含意義很明顯時(shí),讀者可通過(guò)字面領(lǐng)悟它的含義,直譯字面意義,如 “雪中送炭”譯為“to offer fuel in snowy weather”.類似這樣的習(xí)語(yǔ)譯文,讀者只要用心體會(huì)一下,就會(huì)明白其隱含意義,不但保留了原文的形象,而且增加了閱讀趣味。Armed to the teeth武裝到牙齒；paper tiger紙老虎；shuttle diplomacy穿梭外交；tower of ivory象牙塔；give the green light開(kāi)綠燈；as easy as tu rning over one’s hand易如反掌； eat the leek穿小鞋；鴉雀無(wú)聲It’s utterly quiet.2.2 意譯法

有些習(xí)語(yǔ)由于文化因素的影響,在翻譯時(shí)無(wú)法保留原來(lái)語(yǔ)句的字面意義和形象意義,也無(wú)法找到同義的習(xí)語(yǔ)借用,這時(shí)可將原文的形象更換成讀者所熟悉的另一個(gè)譯文形象,從而轉(zhuǎn)達(dá)出原文的語(yǔ)用目的,譯出隱含意義,如漢語(yǔ)中的“落花流水”通常指被打得大敗,譯成英文是“to be shattered to pieces”;又如“The dog that will fetch a bone will carry a bone.”在譯成漢語(yǔ)時(shí)其中的字面形象“dog”,“bone”都不能直譯,只能舍棄它的字面意義和形象意義,譯出隱含意義“對(duì)你說(shuō)別人壞話的人也會(huì)說(shuō)你的壞話?！?老實(shí)講，對(duì)這件事我可是搟面杖吹火---一竅不通To be quite honest with you, I don’t know the first thing about it.Have a bee in one’s bonnet胡思亂想； 他心頭十五個(gè)吊桶打水，七上八下。His mind was in a turmoil.2.3 借用法

由于人類在感情,對(duì)客觀事物的感受及社會(huì)經(jīng)歷等方面不免存在相似之處,所以英漢習(xí)語(yǔ)中存在著少量相同或近似的習(xí)語(yǔ),這些習(xí)語(yǔ)字面意義、形象意義相同或近似,隱含意義則完全相同,也就是說(shuō),此類習(xí)語(yǔ)的字面意義和形象意義所傳達(dá)出的文化信息是相同的,這樣的習(xí)語(yǔ)則可以采用借用法進(jìn)行互譯。如英語(yǔ)中的“practice makes perfect”與漢語(yǔ)中的“熟能生巧”,又如漢語(yǔ)中的“破釜沉舟”與英語(yǔ)中的“burn one’s boats”都來(lái)源于兩國(guó)的軍事策略,因此用法和含義都相同。Spend money like water,揮金如土； like father, like son,有其父必有其子；You will cross the bridge when you come to it.船到橋頭自然直。Many drops of water make an ocean.積少成多。

2.4 節(jié)譯法

在漢語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ)中,常有并列的對(duì)偶結(jié)構(gòu),即用兩個(gè)不同的喻體表達(dá)相同的寓意,前后含義重復(fù),遇到這種情況就可用節(jié)譯法處理,省去并列重復(fù)部分,如“銅墻鐵壁”譯為“wall of bronze”,不必說(shuō)成“wall of copper and iron”,長(zhǎng)吁短嘆用節(jié)譯法譯為“sighing deeply”。石沉大海，杳無(wú)音信disappear without a single trace;2.5 增譯法 班門(mén)弄斧 show off one’s proficiency with the axe before Lu Ban, the master carpenter 結(jié)語(yǔ)

以上對(duì)英漢習(xí)語(yǔ)進(jìn)行了對(duì)比分析并論述了幾種英漢習(xí)語(yǔ)的翻譯方法。其實(shí),無(wú)論對(duì)漢語(yǔ)還是英語(yǔ)來(lái)說(shuō),習(xí)語(yǔ)都是一種特殊的語(yǔ)言現(xiàn)象。對(duì)習(xí)語(yǔ)的翻譯既要有原則性,又要有靈活性,從整體大局出發(fā),力爭(zhēng)做到譯文既保留原文的習(xí)語(yǔ)韻味,又能通順、暢達(dá)地表達(dá)原意。

1． 見(jiàn)機(jī)行事。

Act according to circumstances.2． 兵不厭詐。

All is fair in war.3． 留得青山在，不怕沒(méi)柴燒。

As long as the green hills last, there'll always be wood to burn.4． 種瓜得瓜，種豆得豆。
