1、翻译常用的八种技巧1深层分析常用的翻译技巧1.重复法(repetition)2.增译法(amplification)3.减译法(omission)4.词类转换法(conversion)5.词序调整法(inversion)6.分译法(division)7.正说反译,反说正译法(negation)（反译法）8.语态 变换法(the change of the voices)2深层分析1.重复法1.汉语重复,英译时也重复;2.根据两种语言各自的习惯用法,以不同的表达方式进行重复,这种重复通常是为了传达原文的生动性.3深层分析v重复主要有三种作用：v1，使译文的意思更加明确；v2，加强语气，表示强调；

2、v3，使译文更加生动这种方法主要用于英译汉，因为英汉语比较起来，汉语更喜欢重复，也更经得起重复。4深层分析v1.重复名词v1）重复做宾语的名词vWe have to analyze and solve problems.v我们要分析问题，解决问题。vLets revise our safety and sanitary regulations.v我们来修改安全规则和卫生规则吧。vGentlemen may cry,peace,peace-but there is no peace.v先生们尽管可以高呼和平，和平！但是依然没有和平。5深层分析vWe must enrich our cultura

11、、意义增补和修辞增补。17深层分析vI am looking forward to the holidays.v我们等待假日的到来。vMuch of our morality is customary.v我们大部分的道德观念都有习惯性。vReading makes a full man;conference a ready man;and writing an exact man.v读书使人充实，讨论使人机智，笔记使人精确。vHistories make men wise;poets witty;the mathematics subtle;natural philosophy deep;mo

17、差异造成的。在英译汉时经常省略的词有代词、系词、介词、连词、冠词、先行词等。作主语和定语的人称代词以及做定语的物主代词均可省译。v如果把结构省译看作是消极的省译手段，那么精炼压缩则是积极的省译手段，前者明显，后者隐晦。24深层分析vA book is useful.v书（是）有用（的）。vThe earth goes around the sun.v地球绕太阳转。vOn Sundays we have no school.v礼拜天我们不上学。v If you write him,the response would be absolute silence and void.v你写信给他，总是石

20、为国家做的事,比我们所做的多得多。They have done much more for the state than we have.27深层分析4.词类转换法英译汉时词类转换的核心是根据需要将具有动作性的名词转换为汉语的动词，或者将可表示概念的动词转换为汉语名词。汉译英时则反其道而行之。28深层分析vFor students of composition,an awareness that rhetorical patterns differ from one culture to another can help them become more quickly proficient

33、行分译。例如：蒋介石说，中国过去没有内战，只有剿匪；不管叫什么吧，总之要发动反人民的内战。Chiang Kai-shek says there has never been any“civil war”in China,only“bandit suppression”.Whatever he likes to call it,the fact is he wants to start a civil war against the people.47深层分析3.如果汉语长句中含有反问句（或反诘句）或感叹号，英译时通常要分译。不和中国的人民民主专政的当局好好地打交道，却要干这些混帐工作，而且公开

34、地发表出来，丢脸！丢脸！Instead of dealing with the authorities of the Chinese peoples democratic dictatorship in the proper way,Acheson and his like are doing filthy work,and what is more,they have openly published it.What a loss of face!What a loss of face!48深层分析 蒋介石说要建国，今后就是建什么国的斗争，是建立一个无产阶级领导的人民大众的新民主主义国家呢，
