These researches are conducted in four language streams, namely, Chinese, Spanish, Korean and Japanese. It will talk about problems identified in all these four language streams, with Chinese as the focus. Although according to various definitions, translation competence includes several parts, which are all required for a professional translator; this essay covers mainly the linguistic competence with tense and aspect issue as the main point. Meanwhile, some major causes of mistakes will be identified, such as interference of mother tongue, lack of second language proficiency. In the end, some possible ways for improvement are presented for reaching what are needed for a professional translator.展开更多

It turns out that the Chinese expressions of tenses are more casual and variable,without fixed rules,while for English,more regular. The distinct ways and patterns of expressing tenses between Chinese and English give rise to more frequent errors made by students. Thus,only by a thorough and profound understanding of these distinctions can we find a better way to master the uses of tenses,which requires a reasonable comparison of the tenses between Chinese and English.展开更多
