Cultural dimension, as one of the three key dimensions of eco-translatology, plays a very important role in translating. With its basis on cultural dimension of eco- translatology, this paper aims to present transformation techniques of parataxis and hypotaxis between Chinese and English. It is suggested that, with the cultural dimensional transformation techniques of parataxis and hypotaxis, translators should exert their subjectivity and creativity to achieve in maximizing the degree of holistic adaptation and selection for achieving successful translations.展开更多

Metaphor is a cognitive process and it is a mapping across different domains in nature rather than a simple linguistic phenomenon. The transference of different domains produces different contexts in which the phenomenon of polysemy appears. Therefore,this paper aims at interpreting the polysemy of head in terms of metaphor,finding out the relations between the various meanings of its polysemant and thus analyzing the cognitive motivation of polysemy. That will let people not only have a further understanding of polysemy,but also contribute to English vocabulary teaching.展开更多
