第七节 分译法 division／spliting 把原文句子中的个别词、短语或从分离出来，单独译出，自成短句，或使原文的一个句子分译成两个或两个以上的句子。例如：For a further explanation of examination-dreams I have to thank a remark made by a colleague who had studied this subject, who once stated, A movie of me leaving that foxhole would look like a shell leaving a rifle．A movement of me leaving that foxhole would look like a shell leaving a rifle．我离开那个单人掩体速度之快，要是拍成电影的话，会像出膛的子弹一样。(名词译成小句)Alchemists made resultless efforts to transform one metal into another． 炼金术士企图把一种金属转变成另一种金属，这完全是徒劳的。(形容词译成小句。) Hissafety regulations resulted in an accident to the machinery．safety regulations resulted in an accident to the machinery． Concise Conciseness 因为他没有遵守安全规则，机器出了故障。(名词短语译成子句。)he west for a century dirt-farm poor and ignored by the more industrialized eastern provinces of Ontario and Ouebec that control Canada has lately begun to sway the nation’s entire economic structure．一个世纪以来，加拿大西部是贫困的小农经济地区。工业化程度较高、左右全国的东部省份安大略和魁北克曾对它不屑一顾。但最近以来，西部地区对加拿大的整个经济结构已产生影响。(长句分译成三小句。) 分译法主要用于长句的翻译。为了使译文忠实、易懂，有时不得不把一个division作为一种翻译技巧，它除了指句子分译 一、单词分译：提起分译法这一技巧，一般都指句子分译，很少有著家谈(略有删改)。 (一)单词词义分译：英语有些单词的语义呈综合型，即一个词内集合了’s identical outfit is no longer wearable. 唐纳德靠制作朔料的火烈鸟发了财----他为之自豪；这种产品在美国是很受欢迎的花园装饰品。他说，如果他们俩人中有谁的衣服不能再穿了，另一个甚至会把自己相配的那一条拆了做抹布。 …that little pink-faced chit Amelia with not half any sense，has ten thou pounds and an establishment secure，………爱米丽亚那粉红脸儿的小不点儿，还没有我一半懂事，倒有一万镑财She is in wrong situation…..
