Due to the differences of the two languages, translators tend to be influenced by the original English and have the"imprint"of that language in their translation work, thus creating a kind of third language, which is termed with the coined word"Englinese". The manifestations are summarized as redundancy, mechanical application of English syntax and interpretation of words at face value. By pointing out the existence of this phenomenon and analyzing the causes of it, we are trying to alert the translators of this inappropriate practice and help guarantee the purity of both languages.展开更多

In the conversion of English and Chinese, mastering and understanding some skills of translation can help us better grasp and understand how to transform English into Chinese. Based on the source text of Hillary Clinton's concession speech and the Chinese target text, the thesis studies the techniques of English translation and concludes the skills of translation. The purpose is to help students master a variety of English translation methods, to accumulate English communication skills and to improve the comprehensive level of English.展开更多

As the translator of this book, the author points out the problems confronted in the course of translation from the lexical, phrasal, sentential, and textual levels, meanwhile provides the corresponding translating strategies to solve these difficulties. The cultural strategy bridges the gap between the original work and the target language readers while the textual approach enhances the readability of the translated version. The translation of Response to Modernity into Chinese is of significant reference value for Chinese scholars dedicated to Jewish studies.展开更多

It can indicate the meaning of time, as well as contrast, condition and concession. This study looks into the translation characteristics of while-clauses in Great Expectation by investigating its Chinese correspondences based on the data collected from English-Chinese Parallel Concordance and another Chinese version. The result reveals that the majority of while-clauses are translated by substitution and are translated into adverbial adjuncts.展开更多

Good Chinese translation for the Berne Convention will undoubtedly improve the implementation of it in China. One of the key factors that affect the translation of the Berne Convention is the translation for the modal verbs, because they are concerning the rights conferred to or obligations imposed on authors or countries of the Union. Based on the statistics of the modal verbs used in the Berne Convention, this paper discovers that "shall" and "may" are the most frequently used modal verbs among the ones in English language and they are translated into many types of phrases in Chinese, but not all of them are accurate or appropriate, because the expressions used in the Copyright Law of the People's Republic of China to indicate rights, obligations or prohibitions are not all those that "shall" or "may" are translated into. Some suggestions can be put forward to improve the current Chinese translation for "shall" or "may" in the Berne Convention.展开更多

In such a world of informa-tion, they have to advertise to make their products known to the Chinese customers. Their English advertising slogans, which are ofgreat importance in the advertisements, should be translated into Chinese. Since these advertising slogans have their unique charac-teristics, their translation requirements and methods are quite different from that of other types of text. This paper explains the func-tions of advertising slogans and their translations first; then analyzes the similarities and differences between Chinese and Englishadvertising slogans with examples; and finally, shows what methods to be adopted to translate English advertising slogans.展开更多

It will be one of challenges facing the translators to transfer the attributive clauses in EST faithfully, completely and smoothly into Chinese so that the understanding and response of the target language readers to the information produced in the translation are almost the same as that of the original language readers to the information contained in the original attributive clauses in EST, thus achieving functional equivalence of the translation. Under the direction of Nida's functional equivalence theory, this paper is dedicated to discussing the translation techniques of EST attributive clauses, and hope it benefits the translation of EST in the future.展开更多

However, the outcomes of protein-protein interactions between NAT10 and its protein partners in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC) remain unexplored. In this study, we identified a significant upregulation of RNA-binding protein with serine-rich domain 1(RNPS1) in HNSCC, where RNPS1 inhibits the ubiquitination degradation of NAT10 by E3 ubiquitin ligase, zinc finger SWIM domain-containing protein 6(ZSWIM6), through direct protein interaction, thereby promoting high NAT10 expression in HNSCC. This upregulated NAT10 stability mediates the enhancement of specific tRNA ac^(4)C modifications, subsequently boosting the translation process of genes involved in pathways such as IL-6 signaling, IL-8 signaling, and PTEN signaling that play roles in regulating HNSCC malignant progression, ultimately influencing the survival and prognosis of HNSCC patients. Additionally, we pioneered the development of TRMC-seq, leading to the discovery of novel t RNA-ac^(4)C modification sites, thereby providing a potent sequencing tool for tRNAac^(4)C research. Our findings expand the repertoire of tRNA ac^(4)C modifications and identify a role of tRNA ac^(4)C in the regulation of mRNA translation in HNSCC.展开更多

文摘This paper is to analyze Englinese, a kind of intermittent language in between English and Chinese in the practice of E-C translation. Due to the differences of the two languages, translators tend to be influenced by the original English and have the"imprint"of that language in their translation work, thus creating a kind of third language, which is termed with the coined word"Englinese". The manifestations are summarized as redundancy, mechanical application of English syntax and interpretation of words at face value. By pointing out the existence of this phenomenon and analyzing the causes of it, we are trying to alert the translators of this inappropriate practice and help guarantee the purity of both languages.
