旅游翻译中译文结构调整刍议

Translation Structure Adjustment in Tourism Translation

就中英文句式结构特征而言,中文重意合轻分析,句式结构不必完备;英文高度逻辑化,重分析轻意合,句式结构严谨完备。在翻译旅游文本时,不应过分拘泥于原文句子结构,需以传递信息为目的,必要时对原文的结构进行调整,使其与译文读者或游客的话语习惯相吻合,力求译文很好地在目的语环境中发挥吸引旅游者的功能。

Chinese sentences put much emphasis on parataxis;in contrast,English sentences highly emphasize on logic and analysis.According to this,to better convey information,the translator should adjust the original structures in translation when necessary.Only in this way can the translation fit into the utterance habits of tourists of the target language and appeal to them.
