1。 Introduction

As cultural interaction becomec more and more frequent, translation as a career has been on the rise in China over the past two decades。 Translation includes written translation and interpretation。 It is not an easy task to translate a passage or an essay, let alone a book, because it involves a wide array of factors from language, knowledge, culture to economics。 For a person who wants to translate something, he or she needs not only the basic information of the meaning of the words or phrases but also the usage of these words。 And he or she also needs to link the passage or essay or literatures with the society and the culture of the related country。 This is a very hard part of translation。 One should be familiar with the related culture。 It requires day-by-day learning and accumulation。 But culture and custom are very difficult to learn and copy。 One has to, ideally, live in both cultures to make good sense of the cultural impediments to translation regarding at least the two specific languages in question。 Arguably, it remains a bottleneck, more often than not, for translational practitioners to reproduce meaningfully and satisfactorily in the target language the original text or speech。 A good translation is not only readable, it also aims at retaining or reproducing in the target language the beauty, say, poems and novels, to an extent that is fairly close to the original, be it the affection or the emotion。 Some researchers even claim that the number of the words shall also be taken into consideration when it comes to translation of classic poems and household songs。 Sometimes, like poems, some rhetoric traits of the original should be transplanted in the translation, which makes translation all the more daunting。  从目的论的角度探讨广告翻译:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_81749.html
