在上海从事培训工作克敏斯基先生在一次座谈会上谈及语言误解与文化背景的差异。他说,我刚来上海,拖着沉重的行李从机场出来,叫了一辆出租车,告诉司机我要去SHERATON(华亭喜来顿饭店),结果却被送到了HILTON(静安希尔顿饭店)。在美丽花园城市杭州,我门在就餐时用半生不熟的汉语向服务员要一碗米饭,但不知怎么送上来的却是鸡。 Mr. Kominzki, a teacher in Shanghai, talked about the differences between language misunderstandings and cultural backgrounds at a symposium. He said that when I first came to Shanghai and dragged heavy baggage out of the airport, I called a taxi and told the driver I was going to SHERATON. The result was delivered to HILTON (Jing’an Hilton Hotel). In the beautiful garden city of Hangzhou, I eat a bowl of rice from the waiter with half-baked Chinese at mealtime, but I do not know how to send it to the chicken.
