若何翻译“中式英语”
1. 萝卜青菜，各有所爱。
[误] Some prefer radish but others prefer cabbage.
[正] Tastes differ.
注：Tastes differ/vary .是句英语谚语，除此之外，本句还可翻译成 No dish suits all tastes.或 You can never make everyone happy. 等。别的，我们借能够如许说：One man's meat is another man's poison. 总之，应采用意译。
2.有他这颗扫帚星，什么事件都办不成。
[误] With a comet like him, nothing can be accomplished.
[正] With a jinx like him, nothing can be accomplished.
注：“扫帚星”是中国人对“慧星”（comet）的雅称，果厥后里拖着一条像扫帚一样的长尾巴而得名。在中国现代，“扫帚星”被以为是灾害的前兆，并被用来比方不吉祥的人或事；祸端：（person or thing that is thought to bring）bad luck（to sb/sth）；curse。英语的comet 固然不那层寄义，但却有一个对应的说法，即jinx。
例：There's a jinx on/Someone's put a jinx on this car: it's always giving me trouble. （这辆汽车上有甚么妨人的货色，总给我找费事。）
3.他一贯嘴硬，从不认错。
[误] He has always got a hard mouth and never admit a fault.
[正] He never says uncle.
注：say (cry) uncle: to give up or in; to surrender; to admit defeat. Mainly used by boys, as when fighting. 这句话重要是男孩们打斗时的用语，当一方念礼服另一方时，就用号令的口吻说：“Say uncle!”这时候，有的孩子为了默示不平输，就是不说。后来，say uncle 就成了“伏输”的代名词，而 not say uncle 就相称于“嘴硬”了。
4.人都是这山视着那山高，对本人的近况没有满足的时辰。
[误] Almost all people think that the other mountain is higher than the one he's standing on. They never feel satisfied with what they've already got.
[正] Almost all people think that the grass is greener on the other hill. They never feel satisfied with what they've already got.
注：“这山看着那山下”是指人不满意于近况的心思，它在英语中已有了现成的说法，即 the grass is greener on the other hill（他山的草更绿），因而我们借用便可，这样既便利又更有益于与西圆人相同。
5.同窗们皆很厌恶他，由于他常常拍先生的马屁。
[误] The students all dislike him because he often pats the teacher's ass.
[正] The students all dislike him because he often licks the teacher's boots.
注：以前正在欧洲，臣平易近睹到国王与王后常常要亲吻他们的靴子。厥后，人们将 lick the boots 引伸为“为了某种目标而谄谀或人”，它取汉语的“捧臭脚”含意一样。在好国英语中，“拍马屁”另有另外一种道法，即 polish the apple，源于之前的教死用擦明的苹果去奉迎教员。
6.这个教学教得很烂。
[误] The professor teaches badly.
[正] The professor is so terrible.
注：有人以为第两句的意思是“这个传授很恐怖”，实在否则。英语中 terrible 意义很机动，例如：feel terrible 指身材“不舒畅”； The food is terrible 则是说食品“易吃极了”。而第一句纯属中文式的表白。
7.咱们要把故国扶植成为社会主义的古代化强国。
[误] We will build our motherland into a socialist modern powerful country.
[正] We will build our motherland into a modern powerful socialist country.
注：描述词做为润饰语在汉语跟英语中都很经常使用，但应用的前后顺序却有所分歧。在英语中我们个别遵守“接近准则”，即越能申明实质属性的润色词越接近它所润饰的名词，当从这一面看不出区分时，便靠词的是非来决议，短的在前，长的在后。原文中最能解释“国度”素质的定语是“社会主义的”，所以 socialist 要最凑近它所润饰的核心词。
8.教师很喜好这个嘴甜的小女人。
[误] The teacher likes this sweet-mouthed little girl very much.
[正] The teacher likes this honey-lipped little girl very much.
注：中国人爱好说“嘴苦”，但 honey-lipped 更合乎英丽人的说话习惯。
9.转战北北
[误] fight south and north
[正] fight north and south
注：在地舆方位的抒发习惯上，中英文有必定的差别。中国人习惯于先“工具”后“南北”，并且在波及“南北”时，习惯于先说“南”，再说“北”，如：“出生入死”、“南来北往”等。而英佳丽与此正好相反，如“江苏在中国的东南部”英文是 Jiangsu is in the south-east of China, 而“新疆在中国的西北部”应译为 Xinjiang is in the north-west of China。
10.您据说了吗？迈克把他的女友人给甩了。
[误] Have you ever heard that Mike broke up with his girlfriend?
[正] Have you ever heard that Mike dumped his girlfriend?
注：break up with sb. 固然暗示“与或人分别了”，但并出阐明是谁先提出来的。而 dump 的原意指“倾倒渣滓”，用在这里则表现像倒垃圾一样天甩失落。
[误] Some prefer radish but others prefer cabbage.
[正] Tastes differ.
注：Tastes differ/vary .是句英语谚语，除此之外，本句还可翻译成 No dish suits all tastes.或 You can never make everyone happy. 等。别的，我们借能够如许说：One man's meat is another man's poison. 总之，应采用意译。
