中国英语与汉语文化词语的异化翻译

从简要概述有关中国英语的研究入手,指出受到汉语干扰、尤其是用来表达中国特有事物的中国英语是一种客观存在,并且随着全球化进程的日益加剧,逐渐得到了英语世界的认可。日趋频繁的国际交流导致各民族文化和语言的融合趋同,扩大了借词的接受空间。在这样的文化语境下,异化应成为汉语文化词语翻译的基本策略,但同时应注意把握异化适度的原则。

China English and the Translation of Chinese Culture- loaded Words

Based on a brief review of China English studies, this paper holds that China English, influenced by Chinese and mainly used to express Chinese culture, is an objective reality and has been widely accepted along with the progressing globalization. Intercultural exchange facilitates the fusion of languages and cultures and increases the acceptability of borrowed terms in language. In such cultural context, alienation should be adopted as the principal strategy for translating Chinese culture-loaded words but it should not be abused.
