The Leading Role of Text Function to Translation Strategies——Taking English Translation of Tourism Text as an Example

纽马克的文本功能理论,将文本类型分成"表达型文本"、"信息型文本"和"呼唤型文本"三大类,并针对其交际功能提出"语义翻译"和"交际翻译"两种翻译方法。通过纽马克的文本功能理论对翻译的启示,探究其与翻译目的、翻译标准及翻译策略之间的紧密联系,并结合旅游文本英译例文,论证文本功能对翻译的导向作用。

Newmark＇ s text function theory proposes text typology which divides the text types into expressive text, informative text and vocative text, and puts forward semantic translation and communicative translation according to different communicative functions. This paper explores the close relationships between text typology and translation purpose, translation standard and translation strategy through the enlightenment of Newmark＇ s theory. Based on the C-E tourism translating examples, it also discusses the guiding function of text function to translation.
