浅谈英汉翻译中词语的推敲

On the Weighing of Words in English-Chinese Translation

翻译中词语推敲的目的，在于寻找出那些即能体现原文原意又生动贴切的词语来表现原词，来表现原词所表现的事物。而词语的表现力则包含词义、音韵、色彩三个因素。因此在词语推敲的过程中，要准确把握词语在意义、色彩、音韵等方面的特色，恰当贴切地选词用词。

Weighing the words in deciding the best Chinese equivalent is an elementary step in the process of translation. It aims at the most proper and vivid embodiment of the original in the translated work. A word manifests its force by its meaning, color, and rhyme. Therefore, taking these features of a word into account is definitely of great significance in searching for and determining the most suitable translation.
