“红”与“黑”英汉互译探析

On the translation of“red”and“black”

在英汉互译过程中,颜色词"红"与"黑"存在不可对译的现象,究其原因为词语象征意义不同、词语的起源变化和专门用途词语的使用,因此对于"红"与"黑"相关词语的翻译,应采取直译、意译、直译加意译和音译加注释多种翻译方法。

In the process of E-C translation,“red”and “black”can not always be translated word for word.The reason why there exists such kind of phenomenon is that they have different symbolic meanings,origins and usages of special purposes.Therefore,multiple translation methods such as literal translation,free translation,combination of literal translation and free translation,and transliteration with annotation should be used.
