译文的“信”,是在形式和内容上全面忠实于原文。原文是平铺直叙,译文给以强调,自然不妥,反之,原文语势强烈,而译文却四平八稳或软弱无力,也同样不妥。英语的强调大致可分为词汇、语法和修辞三个方面。以下我们仅从词汇和语法两方面谈谈如何在汉译中表示原文的强调语气。 The “letter” of the translation is full faithful to the original in form and content. The original text is flat and straightforward. It is naturally inappropriate to give emphasis to the translation. On the contrary, the original text has strong linguistic potential, and the translation is unstable or weak, which is also not appropriate. English emphasis can be roughly divided into three aspects: vocabulary, grammar and rhetoric. In the following, we will only talk about how to express the tone of the original text in Chinese translation from two aspects of vocabulary and grammar.
