Lecture note 2 直译（literal translation）VS意译（free translation） 直译：是既保持原文内容、又保持原文形式的翻译方法或翻译文字。直译不等于硬译或死译，也叫逐字翻译——就是以词为单位进行考虑的，力求目的语的每个词都能与原语的每个词对等。直译不仅能保持原作的特点 ,而且还可使读者逐步接受原作的文学风格，促进语言多样性，丰富目的语的语言形式，以利跨文化沟通与交流。Eg: dark horse（黑马） brandy（白兰地） rifle（来福枪） carnation（康乃馨） litchi（荔枝） salon（沙龙） engine（引擎） gentlemen’s agreement（君子协议） one country，two systems（一国两制） to show one’s cards 摊牌 Soon got, soon gone. 来得容易，去得快。 Speech is silver, silence is golden. 雄辩是银，沉默是金。 There is no smoke without fire. 无火不生烟 The worst wheel of a cart creaks most. 最坏的车轮最会嘎嘎响。 Out of sight, out of mind. 眼不见，心不念。 来得易，去得疾。 Easy come, easy go. 同一个世界，同一个梦想。 One world, one dream.
