聚合物太阳电池科技英语的特征及其汉译策略

Features and Translation Strategies of English Sci-Tech Texts on Polymer Solar Cells

聚合物太阳电池是材料科学的一个新兴研究领域,它的文体通过广泛使用技术词、半技术词、缩略词、被动句和名词化结构呈现出科技英语的客观性和简明性。为了达到理想的汉译效果,需要掌握派生、复合、缩略等构词特征以明晰词义,又要合理处理复合长句、非谓语动词、被动句以突出文体的逻辑性;结合公式、图表、数据的精准处理,体现科技翻译"忠实、准确"的标准。

Polymer solar cells have become a new research field of material science. For objectivity and conciseness, technical and semi-technical words, abbreviations, passive sentences and nominalization structure are frequently employed in relevant English for Science and Technology. For good results of translation, on the one hand, we should have a good knowledge of its word-formation like derivation, compound and abbreviation to understand the accurate meaning of words;on the other hand, we should process long composite sentences, nonfinite verb structures and passive sentences in a proper way for clear logicality. Together with accurate processing of formulas, charts, and data, this EST translation is done based on the principle of faithfulness and accuracy.
