Negation(正说反译、反说正译).pptVIP

Negation (正说反译、反说正译法) The English language has its peculiarities in negation. Of course, English-speaking people have their own way of thinking in the negation and expressing negative implications. What is affirmative in form in English may be implied something negative in Chinese, and vice versa. The use of “yes” and “no” is a case in point. 1. --“Are you not going tomorrow?” --“No, I’m not going.” 2. “I don’t think you’re right in this point.” Leave me alone! Go away! 别烦我！走开！ Feel at home. 别见外，别客气。 I went to the airport to meet my friend but missed her. 我去机场接朋
