行业新闻-中高级翻译英译汉使用技巧讲解 人名地名英译

作者: 来源:沟通翻译公司 更新时间:2010-10-13

英语人名,地名,可以查找工具书,比如英汉辞典等等

中级口译的人名地名的翻译相对来说是比较简单的,我们翻译人名,地名必须遵循“音译”的原则。必须注意的是:

1) 用音译,慎用意译

如:人名Wall, Sleep,译成:“沃尔”与“斯利普”,不可译成“墙”与“睡”。地名China同样不可译成“陶瓷”,这也是众所周知的事了

2) 人名中姓和名之间,用圆点间隔,如John Thomas Smith “约翰。托马斯。史密斯”。

3) 要熟记一些常用的译名

比如:Franklin Roosevelt 罗斯福 Winston Churchill 邱吉尔

Napoleon 拿破仑 Aristotle 亚里士多德

Socrates 苏格拉底 New York 纽约

New Orleans 新奥尔良 Los Angeles 洛杉矶

Detroit 底特律 Chicago 芝加哥

平时就多看看有关资料,也不一定要全背出,只是心里要留个底儿,这样就不会闹笑话了,而关于see在不同语境情况之下的不同翻译,这说明要准确的译出文章中关键词的意思,首先要注意语境的把握和上下文的搭配关系

《补充练习》

THE HUMMING-BIRD

Of all animated being this is the most elegant in form and the most brilliant in colors. The stones and metals polished by our arts are not comparable to this jewel of Nature. Her masterpiece is this little humming-bird , and upon it she has heaped all the gifts which the other birds may only share. Lightness, rapidity , nimbleness , grace and rich apparel all belong to this little favorite, The emerald , the ruby , and the topaz gleam upon it dress. It never soils them with the dust of earth , and in its aerial life scarcely touches the turf an instant 。 Always in the air , flying from flower to flower, it has their freshness as well as their brightness. It lives upon their nectar , and dwells only in the climates where they perennially bloom.

在一切生物中,要算蜂鸟体型最优美,颜色最鲜艳。经过工艺加工得各种宝石和金属是无法跟这个大自然的珍宝媲美的。这种小蜂鸟是大自然的杰作,大自然 把其他鸟类只能分享的种种天赋全部慷慨地给了它。这个小宠儿具有轻盈,敏捷,灵活,优雅以及羽毛绚丽等一切妙处。那翠绿的,艳红的,嫩黄色的羽毛闪闪发 光。蜂鸟从不让它的羽毛沾染尘土,它生活在天空中,一刻也不碰到草皮。它总是在空中飞翔,从花丛飞向花丛;它像花一样新鲜,又像花一样艳丽。蜂鸟靠花蜜为 生,它只生活在鲜花盛开的地带。
