Chinese Negative Transfer in Chinese-English Interpretation Abstract Chinese negative transfer is an interference which proves to be an obstacle for Chinese learners of English as a second language , i.e., English L2 acquisition, resulting in error expressions of great discrepancy between C-E interpreters and native speakers of English. Chinese-English interpretation is a cross-linguistic activity with its own features, which is influenced by several factors, say, the habit of associating Chinese counterparts in speaking and writing English words or phrases. It is inevitable that negative transfer will take place. Three levels of Chinese negative transfer in Chinese-English interpretation are analyzed in this thesis. They are lexical level, syntactic level and pragmatic level. They are illustrated with examples in order to find out the causes of the errors in Chinese-English interpretation. Meanwhile, a case study is conducted to evidence the theory in this thesis.
