Based on the semantic characteristics of English and Chinese transferred epithet, this thesis therefore tries to explain how English and Chinese transferred epithets, by means of intentionally misusing of semantic meaning, elaborately design languages so as to make them deviation, and thus to achieve a distinctive artistic style of languages.
