新型冠状病毒肺炎诊疗方案中的中医方案英译探讨

Study of English Translations of TCM Diagnosis and Treatment Protocol for COVID-19

以目前由权威机构在线发布和出版的新型冠状病毒肺炎诊疗方案中的中医方案3个英译本为研究对象,通过对比分析不同译本中的中医证型术语、中药方剂名、中药饮片、现代中药制剂名称等的翻译,发现当前中医英译翻译策略基本以异化法为主,具体方法上以直译和音译为主,术语翻译存在不统一甚至漏译、误译问题。

This paper takes three English versions of TCM diagnosis and treatment protocol for COVID-19 as the study subjects,which have been published in print or online.Through analysis of the translations of the TCM patterns,names of formulas,medicinals,modern Chinese medicine preparations,etc.,it is found that foreignization is mainly used as the translating strategy,literal translation and transliteration are the primary translating methods,and problems such as inconsistent use of terms,omissions and misinterpretations do exist.
