英汉习语文化差异与翻译的开题报告】

英汉习语的文化差异及其翻译
选题论证
作为语言的一个重要部分,习语是一种广为流传的具有特定含义的固定的短语,在人们的日常生活中起着越来越重要的作用。
由于习语的文字通俗简练,风趣幽默,中西方人们都习惯于使用习语。
它有着丰富的文化内涵,体现了不同民族在历史,地理,宗教信仰,风俗习惯和思维方式等方面的差异。
习语同文学作品一样是语言的精华:
它们承载着一个民族的文化特色和文化信息。
世界上凡历史比较悠久的语言都包含大量的成语,汉、英两种语言即是如此。
由于汉、英两族在历史文化背景、传统习惯及思想方法等方面有显著差异,反映在成语的形象、含义及用法上也大不相同。
习语中的文化因素给翻译带来了困难。
只有通过适当的翻译技巧和方法,才能使译文既能保持原文的特色,又能清楚地表达。
习语是语言中重要的修辞手段,经常用音的和谐来达到易懂易记,生动有趣的目的。
它没有规则的句子结构,却有着相对固定的自身表达形式。
习语的这些特点为它的翻译增加了难度。
为了使读者更好的理解并运用习语,在翻译中译者必须考虑其背后的文化因素。
同样的习语在不同的语境中将会有完全不同的翻译,它反映了中西方人们在生活习俗,思维习惯,性格以及对待色彩等方面的不同看法。
本论题将通过习语的翻译向读者介绍一些中西方的文化差异,以便人们能更好的交流。
