As a worldwide and popularized art form,movie has rapidly grown to be a predominant carrier of popular culture, playing an important role in the communication of multinational cultures. The main audiences of this inspiring art form are Chinese youths who are extremely passionate for new things,so it attaches great importance to them to build an active and optimistic mentality of watching movies. With the boom of movie industry, the subtitle translation in English movies has been lifted on a comparatively high position.展开更多

Downton Abbey, as the most popular English drama in the recent ten years, manifests the numerous aspects of the world of English upper nobles and their servants under the severe hierarchy. It is praised by the whole world. This thesis attempts to analyze the application of literal translation in Downton Abbey from the aspect of formal equivalence and meaning equivalence so as to explore the suitability and effectiveness of literal translation and find out if a literal translation can be applied to the English film's translation. The thesis first reviews the research status of movie English and points out the significance of learning it from the side of literal translation.And it gives literary translation and general introduction to key concepts that can be used in later analysis. Then, it analyzes the application of literal translation in subtitle translation of Downton Abbey from formal equivalence and meaning equivalence in order to find out the usability and validity of literal translation in movie English. Finally, it sums up the findings and limitations of the thesis.展开更多
