The Defects Liability Certificate for the Works shall, within 28 days after the expiration of the Defects Liability Period, be issued by the Engineer, or, if different defects liability periods become applicable to different Section or parts of the Permanent Works, the expiration of the latest such period, or if, pursuant to Clause 82, any works instructed are completed to the satisfaction of the Engineer, the Defects Liability Certificate therefor shall be issued by the Engineer as soon as possible.注释:
(1)
the Defects Liability Certificate:缺陷责任证书
(2)
the expiration of the Defects Liability Period: 缺陷责任期终止
(3)
different defects liability periods become applicable to different Section or parts of the Permanent Works:不同的缺陷责任期适用永久工程的不同区段或部分(4)
any works instructed:任何按指示进行的工程
参考译文:工程的缺陷责任证书应由工程师在缺陷责任期终止后28天内颁发,或者,如果不同的缺陷责任期适用永久工程的不同区段或部分时,则在最后一个缺陷责任期终止或根据第82条,在任何按指示进行的工程已完成并达到工程师满意之后尽快签发。
例6:
The Borrower shall pay for the account of the Banks a commitment fee of one half of one percent(0.5%)per annum on the Total Loan Commitment.The commitment fee shall be paid from the date of the conclusion of the Contract(inclusive)to the earlier day of the Disbursement Date and the Termination Date(but excluding the day in question).The commitment fee shall quarterly be paid from the date in the third month thereafter to the earlier day of the Disbursement Date and the Termination Date.注释:
(1)
commitment fee:承诺费,承担费。贷款协议签定生效后,如借款人没有按期使用贷款,需向贷款人支付一定金额的补偿费用——承诺费或承担费。通常在贷款协议中确定一个承诺期。承诺期分为前后两期,前期不收承诺费,后期计收承诺费。如果在前段承诺期已使用全部承诺期金额,则不收承诺费。如果在前段承诺期未使用全部承诺期金额,其余额在后段承诺期使用,则计收承诺费。
(2)
the Disbursement Date:贷款发放日(3)
the Termination Date:贷款终止日(4)
from the date in the third month thereafter:从其后第3个月的该日 thereafter:after the Termination Date
参考译文:
借款人每年应支付银行贷款承诺总额0.5%的承诺费。支付时间从签订合同之日起(包括该日在内),到贷款发放日和终止日中较早之日(但不包括该日在内)为止,从其后第3个月的该日起开始按季支付至发放日与终止日中较早之日。

promises that the law will enforce。何谓“Agreement”?L.B “A consensus of mind, or evidence of such consensus, in spoke or written form, relating to anything done or to be done.” 根据这一定义,协议是对已经做或准备做的相关事宜,经过谈判、协商后取得一致意见,以口头或书面形式做出的约定。Black “Law Dictionary”有两个定义。一个是:“A concord of understanding and intention between two or more parties with respect to the effect upon their relative rights and duties, of certain past or future facts or performance”根据这一定义,协议即双方或多方京某些过去或将来某些事实的相关权利、义务或相关权利、义务的履行而达成的一致理解和愿望。另一个是:“The consent of two or more persons concurring respecting the transmission of some property, right or benefits, with the view of contacting an obligation, a mutual obligation.”根据这一定义,协议即两个或多个当事人,为了约定单方责任或相互责任,就财产权利、利益的转移取得的一致同意。Contract(合同)和Agreement(协议)是不是可以互换呢?合同的成立必须具备几个主要因素。它们(要约和承诺构成的)协议、约因、设立法律关系的愿望和缔约能力四大部分组成。L.B Curzon编著的“A Diction of Law”提到:“Contract generally involves”1.offer and absolute and unqualified acceptance(要约和绝对接受)2.consensus ad idem(意思表示一致,也叫meeting of minds)3.intention to create legal relations(建立合同关系的意愿)4.genuineness of consent(同意的真实性)5.contractual capacity of the parties(合同当事人的缔约能力)6.legality of object(标的物的合法性)7.possibility of performance(履行的可能性)8.certainty of terms(条款的确定性)9.valuable consideration(等价有偿)Black 'Law Dictionary“ 中解释道:Although often used as synonyms with ”contract“, agreement is a broader term, e.g.an agreement might lack an essential element of a contact.” 即“协议”和“合同”经常用作同义词,但“协议”这一术语含义更广,例如协议可能缺乏合同的必备条款(essential clauses/provisions)。实际使用当中,协议可不受必备条款的限制,而称为合同的文体肯定少不了必备条款,有的合同将其单列,称为一般条款(General provisions)。1999中国《合同法》第十二条规定了八项一般条款,分别是:1.title or name and domicile of the parities(当事人的名称或姓名和住址)2.contract object(标的)3.quantity(数量)4.quality(质量)5.price or remuneration(价款或者报酬)6.time limit, place and method of performance(履行期限、地点和方式)7.liability for breach of contract(违约责任)8.methods to settle disputes(解决争议的方法)上述解释说明,contract(合同)和agreement(协议)的概念虽然接近,但使用范围不同,不能互换使用。合同是协议的重要组成部分,所有合同一定是协议,而协议不见得都是合同。可以说具备合同成立要求的具有强制执行力的协议才是合同。2.“契约”的英语表达 英语中表达契约的用语有:covenant, indenture, deed和compact。它们含义有无区别呢。在Black的“Law Dictionary”中,covenant是指:Agreement, convention or promise or more parties, by deed in writing, signed, and delivered, by which either of the parties pledged himself to the other that something is either done, or shall be done, or shall not be done, or stipulates for the truth of certain facts.The term is currently used primarily with respect to promises in conveyance or other instruments relating to real estate.看来covenant主要指针对不动产转让或与不动产相关的证明文件。在Black的“Law Dictionary”中,indenture 是指:A deed between tow parties conveying real estate by which both parities assume obligations, Historically, indenture referred to a crease or wavy cut that was made in duplicates of the deed so their authenticity could be verified later.看来indenture针对的也是不动产转让,但在传统做法中为证明其真实性,被人一撕为二,留下折痕或波纹状撕痕,以供未来核对的那种契约就叫indenture.在Black的“Law Dictionary”

第三篇:中英翻译差异
汉英文化差异对英语翻译的影响
【摘要】翻译活动并不是简单的文字转换,而是把一种语言转换成另一种语言的工作,因而是一种跨文化的活动。而各个民族的生活环境和生活经历不同造成了他们所创造的文化之间也具有巨大差异,这种差异又造成了各自语言上的巨大差异。这些差异对译者翻译过程以及翻译翻译结果的准确性产生巨大影响。本文将从地理位置、宗教信仰、生活习惯和习俗、以及词义联想和文化意象共四个方面探讨中西方文化的差异对翻译活动的影响。【关键词】汉英文化 英语翻译 差异 影响
引言
语言是社会现象,也是文化现象,语言反映文化,又受文化的制约,语言与文化的密切关系注定了翻译与文化的关系。根据一般概念, 翻译是将一种语言的信息用另一种语言表达出来的活动。这个概念只提及语言的信息, 未提到文化的信息, 是不完整的概念。世界上不同的民族和地域的人们创造了具有各自特点的民族地域文化,这种文化上的差异造成了各自语言的巨大差异,所以翻译不仅是把一种语言转换成另外一种语言的工作。更是文化上的交流活动。我国著名学者王佐良教授在谈到文化与翻译的关系时指出: “翻译工作者处理的是个别的词, 他面对的则是两大片文化。”
一、汉英的地理位置差异与英语翻译
一定的文化实体总是存在于一定的空间地域内的,因此它不可避免地要反映该地域的自然特点与物产经济的特点,具体反映在语言上也有所不同。在用自然景观或物体作比较时,不同的语言表现就存在明显的差异。就拿中国和英国相比,以英国为例,英国四周环海,是一个典型的岛国,并且在历史上英国的航海业非常发达,曾一度领先于其他国家,因而英语中与海洋有关的词语和表达就特别丰富。中国则不同,中国有2/3 的边界线在陆地上,文化的繁荣兴盛起源于中原。中华民族世代在亚洲大陆生活并繁衍,生活的方方面面都离不开土地,所以他们对土地有一种特殊的感情。在语言中也潜移默化体现与土地的关系,如,汉语“挥金如土”,比喻铺张浪费,花钱大手大脚,而英语中则用“spend money like water” 此外,英语中有大量关于船和水的俗语和习语,而在汉语中却找不到完全相同的对应,如: “all at sea”(指不知所措)、“as close as an oyster”(指守口如瓶)、“drink like a fish”(指豪饮)等等。中国人经常用“天南地北”来表达对祖国幅员辽阔的赞叹,而英国人则用“from sea to sea”来表达国土面积的意思。
“东风”和“西风”在中西文化中有着不同的解读,这也是由国家的地理环境的差异造成的。中国西邻高山,东临大海,东风就是温暖春天的象征,所以中国人偏爱东风,故素有“西风凛冽”与“东风送暖”之辞。而英国却拥有完全不同的地貌与气候,它西邻大西洋,东面与欧洲大陆相望,西风温暖而湿润,东风反而寒冷。英国人对西风的喜爱在雪莱的《西风颂》中表现得淋漓尽致,诗中有这么一句:“Oh the west wind.If winter comes, can spring be far behind.”(啊,西风!假如冬天已经来临,春天还会远吗?)如果不了解英国的地理环境,译者在翻译这个句子时可能就会感到困惑:为什么雪莱会歌颂寒冷的西风呢?因此,这种地理环境的差异有时会给翻译带来较大的困难。
二、汉英双方宗教信仰差异与英汉翻译
在语言漫长的发展历史中,宗教的影响是不容小觑的,各国的语言或多或少都会沾染上些许宗教色彩。英国人大多信基督教,按照基督教的理解,世界和宇宙是上帝创造的,这个世上的万事万物都要服从上帝的旨意。在中国则大多数人信奉佛教,在他们心中,由各派佛祖主宰这个世界。中英文中都有大量与宗教信仰相关的词语,中文里有“借花献佛”、“放下屠刀,立地成佛”等说法。在西方国家,人们表示对对方的祝福时常会说“God bless you!”,在鼓励灰心丧气的朋友时,人们通常会说“God helps those who help themselves”(天助自助者)。与宗教有关的典故在翻译工作中也很常见。如:“The thing I bought yesterday am found to be an apple of Sodom.” 中的“an apple of Sodom” 便是出自于圣经中的一个典故。据圣经《旧约·创世纪》记载, 所多玛是古代死海边上的一座城市, 由于那里的居民骄奢淫逸, 罪大恶极, 上帝降火烧毁了这座城,城中的百姓、庄稼和牲畜全都化为灰烬, 传说在那里的死海边上长着一种外表美丽、摘下便成为灰烬的苹果。后来, “an apple of Sodom” 比喻罪恶的城市, 罪恶之地。只有了解这一典故, 才能正确译成:“我发现昨天买的东西外表好看却实际无用。”如果译者不熟悉圣经里的这个典故,那么他在翻译的时候就不能准确地表达出原文的意思。
三、生活习惯和习俗的差异与英语翻译
我们常说: “ 一方水土养一方人。” 的确如此, 这其中也包含着文化的差异。汉语和英语是建立在不同文化基础上的两种语言, 它们各自反映着自己特殊的民族文化和历史传统。语言和文化是息息相关的, 有什么样的文化, 就会有与之相对应的语言来反映。
就拿数字来说,“8”在中国是一个吉利的数字,很多人在竞投车牌,电话号码等的时候愿意花上一大笔钱,就只为了图一个吉利。可是如果是拿这些数字给英国人,可能他们只会一笑而过甚至会觉得奇怪为什么要花那么多钱买一堆数字。称谓上,中国人是讲究尊卑大小,因此会有“舅舅”、“舅妈”、“叔叔”、“婶婶”等的称谓。可是在英语的 “uncle”、“aunt”这两个词就代替了这些称谓的麻烦。中国人性格上是比较内敛的,而外国人则思想相对比较开放。因而在生活上,中国人都喜欢委婉的表达自己的情感,比如:某人称赞某个人的女儿很漂亮时,中国人一般会说:“哪里,哪里。”以表达自己的谦虚。如果把这几句直接翻译过来就会闹出笑话:“Your daughter is beautiful.” “where, where.”所以在翻译这类词语时,译者一定要考虑到不同的生活习俗对日常表达的影响,千万不能僵硬地采用直译来传达原文的意思。除此之外,中国人见面很喜欢问别人:“你吃饭了没。”但是英国人则是喜欢见面就讨论今天的天气,两个极端反映出双方文化的差异。如果在翻译的时候没有这些文化内涵作为根基,那么译者也很难把真正的意思翻译出来。
四、词义联想和文化意象与翻译
由于英汉两个民族生活环境和生活经历的不同, 在词义联想和文化意象上必然存在着一些差异。例如: 对“dragon”一词的理解中西差异就很大, 中国人视之为神圣, 尊贵的象征, 因而望子成龙,称自己为龙的传人;而在西方人的眼中, 龙却是嘴里喷火的四足怪物, 在《圣经》 里是罪恶的象征。就拿“龙凤胎”一词举例,我们不能翻译成: “A baby dragon and a baby phoenix”那样很容易让西方人误解,甚至大为吃惊,感到不可思议。正确的译文应该是:“pigeon pair”。同样西方人对“dog” 的看法也与中国人大相径庭, 英语中含有“dog” 的习语很多, 大多表示喜爱的感情, 例如:“ a lucky dog”(幸运儿);“ Every dog has his day.”(凡人皆有得意日。)等等, 而汉语中却说“痛打落水狗”“走狗”等,大多含有贬义。
中华文化五千年,其中最为璀璨而西方又无法相比的就是唐诗。中国的唐诗分门别类,有四言绝句,八言律诗等。中国诗人可以用用寥寥数十字去表达一个绝美的意境,就以《静夜思》为例:“床前明月光,疑是地上霜。举头望明月,低头思故乡。”16字就已经把诗人的思念之前形象生动地表达出来。若是把这16字翻译为英文,那么字数肯定是超过原来的诗句,最重要的是诗句原来的意境也不复存在。又例如,中文中常有:“好好学习,天天向上”之说。英文中却是没有的,中国人自行翻译为:“Good good study, day day up.”明显就违反了英语的日常用法。又如:“If the public officials of higher authorities resort to bribery, those of lower authorities will follow.This is called:Fish begins to stink at the head.”以中国人的思维,或会翻译出:“上级公务员行贿受贿, 下级公务员也会效仿。这叫:鱼从头开始发臭。”完全的中国式英语,被中文思维所以困扰,所以才会出现最后一句翻译的笑话。以上种种课看出中英双方的思维差异之大,以此导致双方在词义联想以及意境上有巨大的差别。所以在进行翻译的时候,译者不能只顾转换语言符号而忽略非语言符号的结果。以‘Fish begins to stink at the head.’为例,它的英语文化涵义是什么? 怎样把这层意义转化到汉语译文中来, 使其也具有类似的汉语文化内涵, 换句话说,就是把这短短的英文句子翻译出具有中国风味的句子。这就需要译者有两种文化的词义联想和文化意象,将‘Fish begins to stink at the head.’与中文中的某些词句来年息起来,再根据语境得出翻译的结果,这样的句子才会更加“有味道”。而正确的译文应为:“上级公务员行贿受贿, 下级公务员也会效仿,这叫: 上行下效(或上梁不正下梁歪)。”上行下效或上梁不正下梁歪都是汉语习语, 寓意深刻, 能够较好地对接‘Fish begins to stink at the head.’中的文化内涵。结语
本文通过地理、宗教、生活习惯和习俗、以及在词义联想和文化意象四方面对汉英翻译的关系,初步地了解汉英文化差异对英语翻译的影响。我们可以看到,文化的差异给词语的表达打上了深深的文化烙印,语言承载丰富的文化内涵。而翻译不仅要力求语言意义上的等值,而且更重要的是文化意义上的等值。要想翻译出完美的作品,译者就必须在理解词的内涵上下功夫,深入了解译出语和译入语之间的文化差异,对译文做出综合判断,选择合适的翻译技巧,只有把文化和语言能力有机结合,才能做好翻译工作。
