摘要被誉为“世界第一运动”的足球是全世界体育最具影响力的单项体育运动之一。如今随着这项运动的国际化,其受关注程度也是越来越高。尤其在近些年,国外足球文化在中国的渗透变得格外迅速。但由于长期以来我国译者在外国人名翻译上的不规范、不准确现象,观众与读者们在面对数量庞大的众多球员名字时难以分辨。与此同时,人名翻译的随意性往往会导致一个英文名字被译成多种汉语版本的混乱现象。本项目主要针对一些过往足球赛事中解说员、评论员在翻译球员名字方面的实例进行探讨与研究,在归纳出一些存在的问题同时结合中外翻译界的相关理论提出一些新的思路。28855

Title Overcoming the Misunderstanding in Name Translation
——Taking Foreign Football Players as Examples
Abstract
Known as “the most influential sport in the world”, football is becoming more and more popular nowadays. With its booming internationalization, foreign football culture had infiltrated into China rapidly. But for a long time, translations of foreign names are not standardized. Different translation approaches often lead to the fact that an English name has been translated into a variety of Chinese versions. As a result, readers often felt confused by the arbitrariness of translation. This project mainly focuses on the name translation of football players and some commentary works, finally attempts to propose a set of rules to translate football player’s names.

1 Introduction
1.1 Existing Research on the Translation of Football Player’s Names
Translation of people’s names is a form of intercultural communication. When we translate the Chinese names into English ones or translate the English names into Chinese ones, language laws, cultural psychology, aesthetic interest and some other factors will be involved. The translators should also pay attention to some cultural taboos and choose appropriate method to translate (Di Hongqiu, 2008). Undoubtedly, name translation is not a simple task. When we translate foreign names, there is always something we can do to strive for perfection. A good translation not only makes others feel comfortable, but also shows a rich cultural ability of one person.
Cultural exchange is the inevitable trend of cultural. Since it’s beginning, culture exchange is omnipresent. Whether we realize or not, our lives are concerned with cultural exchanges. Sports culture as an important part of culture, its origin, development and prosperity there have also exchanges. Known as "the world's first sport", football is one of the world's most influential sports events. In the beginning there was chaos, and football was without form (Li Changshuan, 2012). Then came the Victorians, who codified it, and after them the theorists, who analyzed it. Now with the internationalization of football, many problems also reached to an increasingly high degree of concern. Translations of player’s names are always one of such difficult problems. For a long time due to our translator does not regulate the translation of foreign names, inaccurate phenomenon often made audience and readers in the face of a huge number of the many player names difficult to distinguish (Hu Fangyi, 2012). These misunderstandings can mainly pide into two sorts: sound confusions and abbreviations. 人名翻译的陷阱与突围以国外足球运动员姓名汉译为例:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_23856.html
