摘要
成语是一个社会的语言和文化的重要组成部分,它能反映出一个民族的历史、地理、社会观点、宗教信仰以及生活方式等。英语和汉语这两种语言中都有着丰富的成语,因此,在英汉互译时,对其文化内涵进行分析和研究是十分必要的。通过对比分析,可以找出这两种语言成语之间的跨文化共性和差异,选择合适的翻译方法,在英汉互译过程中实现令人满意的语际转换。
Idiom is an important constituent in the language and culture of a society which reflects the history, geography, social thought, regional belief, and living patterns of a nationality. There are plentiful idioms in both English and Chinese. In the translation of English and Chinese idioms, it is essential that the cultural connotation be carefully studied, therefore, the cross- cultural common characters and distinctions embodied in the idioms of the two languages can be found, and appropriate translation methods may be adopted, consequently, pleasing cross - communicational exchange is expected to be realized.
