基于中西文化对比的旅游文本翻译

Tourist Text Translation Base on the Comparison Between Chinese and Western Cultures

旅游翻译作为一种实用文本翻译,应注重信息传递效果,即原文和译文间信息功能的对等,而非语言形式上的对应。从文化差异的角度不难理解英汉旅游文本的差异。因而翻译策略应着眼于英汉旅游文本风格上的差异,在译文表达上扬长避短,充分发挥译入语的优势,尽量减少文化信息交流中出现的障碍,实现旅游翻译的预期功能。

As one kind of practical text translation,tourist translation should pay more attention to the effect in transferring information,i.e.the information reciprocity between original text and translated text,not the parallelism in languages.It is not very difficult to find out the differences in the tourist texts from the point of cultural differences.Thus the translation tactics should focus on the difference of the English and Chinese tourist translation texts in styles,on adopting strong points of the translated text in expression,on taking advantage of translating language,and on making efforts to reduce problems in the cultural communication to achieve expected function of tourist translation.
