  中国人和红色

  中国人很喜欢红色,甚至称自己为“赤子”。红色在中国象征着权力和喜庆。很多朝代的官服是红色的;在清代,官帽上深浅不同的红色代表了不同的官位。公文的标题通常也用红色,这就是它们被称为“红头文件(red-head documents) ”的原因。另外,用于婚礼的双喜字是红色的。春节期间,老人们 也会给小孩子们发红包,当做新年的礼物和祝福。

  参考翻译:

  Chinese and the Color of Red

  We Chinese like the color of red, and even we callourselves as Chizi, which means a patriot. In China,red represents the power and happiness. Officialrobes of many dynasties were red. In the QingDynasty, different shades of red on the official caps showed different rankings. Headlines ofofficial documents are often printed in red. For that reason, it’s called “red-head documents”. Inaddition, the Chinese character signifying double happiness used for weddings is red. Duringthe Spring Festival, elder people will give Hongbao to the children as gifts and wishes for thenew year.

  解析

  1.赤子:赤子的意思是热爱祖国的人,翻译时,可先用拼音,后补充解释,即 Chizi, which means a patriot。

  2.官服:可译为official robe,因为古代的官服都是长袍类,如果用clothes 或者uniform都不够合理。

  3.深浅不同的红色:译为shades of red, shade为名词,意为“深浅;色度”。

  4.双喜字:按照其字面意思翻译即可,即Chinese charactersignifying double happiness。

  5.红包:可直接用拼音Hongbao翻译,也可以译为red packet。

  茶文化

  中国是一个文化历史悠久的.(time-honored )国度,也是一个礼仪(ceremony and decorum )之邦。每当客人来访,都需要泡茶给客人喝。在给客人奉茶之前,你应该问问他们都喜欢喝什么类型的茶,并采用最合适的茶具奉上。奉茶期间,主人需要仔细留意客人的茶杯里的茶量。通常,若是用茶杯泡的茶,在茶喝完一半之后就应该加开水,这样,茶杯就一直都是满的,茶的芳香(bouquet)也得以保留。

  参考翻译:

  Chinese Tea Culture

  China is a country with a time-honored civilizationand also a land of ceremony and decorum.Whenever guests visit, it is necessary to make andserve tea to them. Before serving tea, you may askthem for their preferences as to what kind of tea they fancy, and serve them the tea in themost appropriate teacups. In the course of serving tea, the host should take careful note ofhow much water remains in the guests'cups. Usually, if the tea is made in a teacup, boilingwater should be added into the cup when half of the tea in it has been consumed; and thus thecup is kept filled and the tea retains the same bouquet.

  解析

  1.一个文化历史悠久的国度:可译为a country with atime-honored civilization。核心词“国度”前的修饰语可采用with来进行关联。

  2.都需要泡茶给…:可译为 it is necessary to make andserve tea to...此处的分句中原文没有给出明确的主语,所以采用it is necessary to do sth.这样的结构。此处如果采用增译法,可增加主语“我们”或者“主人”。

  3.奉茶:指提供茶给客人,可译为serve tea。

  4.在茶喝完一半之后:可译为after half of the tea in it has been consumed。此处的it指代的是cup。为了避免与前文重复,此处可用it来进行替代。

  5.应该加开水:可译为boiling water should be added。boiling water 意为“沸水,开水”。
