摘要
随着人工智能技术的持续发展,机器翻译逐步应用到文学作品翻译领域,其译文质量的优劣日益受到关注。文章以林太乙《镜花缘》英译本及人工智能翻译软件腾讯翻译君英译文为语料,构建二者平行译文库,选取了50段译文进行了定量和定性对比研究。对比发现林太乙人工译文质量在"信、达、雅"三个维度都优于腾讯翻译君的机器译文质量,在分类析因的基础上提出了提高腾讯翻译君翻译近代文学作品质量的建议。
With the continuous development of artificial intelligence technology,machine translation has been gradually applied to the field of literary translation,therefore,the translation quality has aroused much more attention.In this study,the English translation of Lin Taiyi’s Flower in the Mirror and the English translation of artificial intelligence software—Tencent Mr.Translator are used as samples to construct a parallel translation database,and 50 translations are selected for quantitative and qualitative comparative study.The study finds that the quality of Lin Taiyi’s translation is better than that of Tencent Mr.Translator’s machine translation in the three dimensions of"Faithfulness,Expressiveness and Elegance".Based on the above findings,some tentative suggestions are put forward on how to improve the quality of Tencent Mr.Translator’s translation in translating modern literary works.
