Translation of the Negative(转移否定） A negative may be translated from a certain part of the sentence to another in translation. 转移否定就是将原句否定的部分转移到真正否定的部分 9.1.1Translation of the Negative from the Main Clause to the Subordinate That-Clause (把主句的否定转移发到 That-从句） A strange feature of the syntax of subordination in colloquial English is the transfer of the negative from a subordinate that-clause, where semantically it belongs, to the main clause. Thus “I think he will not come” is less often seen than “I don‘t think he will come”. In Chinese, however, we usually say “我想他不会来” instead of “我不想他会来”，hence the transfer of the negative in translation. Examples : We dont believe that our mother tongue is inferior to any other language in the world. 我们相信，祖国的语言并不亚于世界任何其他语言。 I dont think Father will fancy living an idle life like that. 我想爸爸不会喜欢过那种清闲的生活。 9.1.2 Translation of the Negative from the Finite Verb to the Adverbial（把谓语的动词否定转移到状语） Examples : Rome was not built in a day.(=Rome was built not in a day) 罗马非朝夕建成/伟业非一日之功 He does not work at this factory (=he does no work at this factory) 他不在这家工厂工作 Translation of the Negative to the Verb from Other Parts of the Sentence (把句子其他成分的否定转移到动词） Examples: No modulated single is detected. 没有检到调制的信号。（not 检到了没有调制的信号） When gasoline burns, nothing visible remains . 汽油燃烧时，看不见有什么东西剩下。 He gave me not even a moment to collect my thought. 他甚至不给我片刻时间去集中一下思考。 9.3 conversion of the Negative into the Affirmative (否定形式译成肯定形式） 9.3.1 Conversation of English words with Negative Prefixes or Suffixes into Affirmative Forms (把含有前后缀否定的词译成肯定形式） This conversion sometimes sounds better than the combination of the negative word and the affirmative root word.
