摘要:中医被认为是中国古文明伟大文化遗产中一颗璀璨的明珠,其特色逐渐被世界认可和接受。随着中医的国际化,其翻译中存在的问题也越来越突出。中医理论的独特性及其在语言表达方面的特点,使中医的翻译任务艰巨而复杂,至今尚未形成统一完整的翻译理论体系,在具体的翻译上也存在着众多版本,尤其是关于多义词的翻译,其中不乏欠妥之处。笔者就中医多义词具体的翻译原则和方法提出一些建议。

多义词

翻译

经过几千年的医疗实践中,中医已逐步发展为一个完整而又独特的科学体系,并且在治疗和预防疾病方面发挥重要作用。基于中医的疗效明显、副作用小的特点,世界卫生组织把它作为一种有用的经验向全世界推荐。中医英语翻译充当着中医走向全世界人民的桥梁,然而,由于中医历史悠久、理论独特和语言特殊等一系列的原因,这座桥梁尚未令人满意地发挥作用[1]。在实践中,存在着中医名词术语翻译多样化、缺乏统一的翻译标准与原则等多种问题。如

[2]将“五行”译为five elements,five phase,Wuxing等诸多版本。这些因素导致了外国学习者的重重困惑,阻碍了中医的进一步发展。

中医经典著作颇多,一字一句都需细细揣摩。在翻译时尤其要把握好“深、浅、轻、淡”的度,不及或太过都无法准确地传达原文的思想。严复在《天演论》中提到翻译要遵循“信、达、雅”三字原则,“信”即忠实于原文,但中医中一词多义用法颇多,就此笔者结合专业特色,对中医英语多义词的翻译提出两种方法。

结合语境,一词多译

汉语文化的博大精深,在中医中得到了很好的体现,一词多义的用法屡见不鲜。但翻阅众多中医翻译书籍,多数译者单纯的一词一译,不能很好的结合语境,忠实原文。就此问题,[3]笔者将以“清”、“浊”两字为例,具体阐述结合语境翻译法。

“清”和“浊”是中医经典中常用的两个字。如《灵枢·营卫生会篇》言:“清者为营,浊者为卫”;《素问·阴阳应象大论》言:“清阳出上窍,浊阴出下窍”。现代翻译中多统一将“清”译作“lucid”,而“浊”译为“turbid”。《第六版牛津高阶英汉双解词典》(以下简称牛津词典)中对“lucid”的解释为:○1clearly expressed;easy to understand 表达清楚的,易懂的; ○2able to think clearly, especially during or after a period of illness or confusion(尤指生病期间或病愈后,糊涂状态中或过后)头脑清晰的,清醒的。对于“turbid”的释义为“full of mud, dirt, etc, so that you can not see through it ”浑浊的,污浊不清的。实际上清和浊的含义远非lucid和turbid能够概述。

就“清阳出上窍,浊阴出下窍”而言。《内经选读》对其的解释是:水谷之精气上奉于头面五官,饮食化生之后的糟粕经下窍二阴排除体外。即此处的“清阳”指水谷之精气,《素问·经脉别论篇》 :“饮入于胃 ,游溢精气 ,上输于脾。脾气散精 ,上归于肺 ,通调入道 ,下输膀胱。水精四布 ,五经并行 ,合于四时五脏阴阳 ,揆度以为常也。”即是说 ,饮食进入人体胃腑后 ,通过胃的腐熟 ,脾的运化,水谷精微转化成人体所需要的气、血、津液等 ,通过五脏六腑输布全身,维持人体生命不息。所以此处“清阳”翻译为“the essence of food and wanter”比单纯解释为“lucid”更为妥帖。“浊阴”指二便等经人体消化后的糟粕之物,牛津字典对turbid的解释“浑浊的,污浊不清的”含义用在此处较为妥帖,所以直接翻译为“the turbid yin”即可表达此意。

但“清者为营,浊者为卫”的含义有所不同。营气,是由脾胃化生的水谷精微中最精专柔和、最富有营养的部分所生,《素问·痹论》说:“荣者,水谷之精气也。”营气具有化生血液、营运血液、营养全身的作用,与卫气相对而言,属于阴,故又有“营阴”之称。卫气,是由脾胃化生的水谷精微中最剽疾滑利的部分所生。《素问·痹论》说:“卫者,水谷之悍气也。”卫气行于脉外,具有“温分肉,充皮肤,肥腠理,司开合”(引自《灵枢·本藏》)的作用。与营气相对而言属阳,故又有“卫阳”之称。现代通常翻译为“lucid part transforming into nutrient qi,turbid part transforming into defense qi”,根据上文提到的牛津字典对于lucid和turbid的释义,可知这两个单词用来翻译清浊实为不妥。此言中,清和浊都是精微物质,所以可用“essence”诠释。而相对的精专柔和和剽疾滑利的特点,可以用clear 和sharp来区分。牛津词典中对于clear的释义较多,其中“清澈”之意用在此处比较合适。而sharp既有“clear and define”之意,又有“sudden and rapid,especially of a change

[6]

[5]

[4]in sth”之意,此种表达方式既能表现卫气本是水谷精微的本质,又展现了其剽疾滑利之特性。所以清者为营浊者为卫的中清和浊应该分别翻译为“the clear of the essence“,”the sharp of the essence“ 由此可见,翻译中医时应结合语境,理解其具体含义,根据语境,一词多义,才能翻译出中医的精髓。音译法

在博大精深的中医文化面前,再顶尖的翻译家有时也感到无能为力,尤其是抽象或者含义众多或者有的特定意义的词语,因为没有哪个英文词汇可以准确传达出其中的真谛。此时可以别辟蹊径,采用音译。

2.1 音译在中医翻译中的使用现状

《译学词典》对音译的解释是:“音译也称转写,即用一种文字符号(如拉丁字母)来表示另一文字系统的文字符号(如汉字)的过程或结果。”中译英中的音译,即以拼音代替英语的翻译方法。此方法在中医英语的翻译中尤为实用,因为很多中医词汇是中国特有的文化精髓,英文中存在文化空缺,无法找出合适的单词与之相对应,勉强意译之后又无法完整的体现原来的含义。

就目前中医的翻译现状来看,音译使用频率不高,且仅有Qi,yin yang 等少数词汇的音译得到了广泛的认可。

2.3 音译的特色及未来在中医翻译中的发展前途

在大部分人看来,翻译时采用拼音是一种无能的表现。殊不知,这正是汉语文化博大精深的体现,尤其是在中医文化中。如“阴阳”适用于天地、昼夜、男女„„简单的两个字几乎囊括世间万物,这是任何一种文化都难以比肩的。如若翻译,也只有”yin and yang“ 能够不损失其中的真谛。在文化空缺面前,我们必须承认,并且相互弥补,音译即为很好的途径。就此,笔者以“运气”和“痹”为例,详细论述中医英语,尤其是多义词的音译方法和原则。

运气,在中医中也叫五运六气,是研究自然界天象、气象变化规律与人类疾病发生与流行关系的学说。《素问·宝命全形论》有云:“人以天地之气生,四时之法成。”天象日月星辰的运转、春夏秋冬循环的更替、风寒暑湿燥火的变化,影响着人类的健康与生存、疾病的发生与流行。此处,五运即木火土金水,六运指风寒暑湿燥火。

此外,在气功中亦有“运气”之说,即把全身之气灌注到身体某一部分。五代王仁裕《开元天宝遗事·唤铁》:“ 太白山 有隐士 郭休,字 退夫,有运气绝粒之术。”清 纪昀《阅[5][7]微草堂笔记·滦阳续录三》:“其乡有导引求仙者,坐而运气,致手足拘挛。”由此可见,运气也是中国功夫神奇所在。

现在,运气又常用于指机遇机会等,此种用法时,英语有对应词汇,即可译为luck在此不作详解。而前两种含义是英语的文化空缺。现在“五运六气”的常用翻译法有five movements and six climates;five circuit phases and six atmospheric influences;five movements and six qi;five evolutive phases and six climatic changes.其中将“气”直译为”qi“或者”climate“尚可理解,而将“运”翻译为”movement“着实有些不可理喻,movement意为运动,与木火土金水的意思毫不相干,此种翻译将中医含义大打折扣。

此时,音译即可发挥其特色,与其片面的理解翻译,不如直接用”yun qi“,五运六气即可翻译为”five yun and six qi“。

“痹”出自《黄帝内经》:“黄帝问曰:痹之安生?岐伯对曰:风寒湿三气杂至,合而为痹也。其风气胜者为行痹,寒气胜者为痛痹,湿气胜者为著痹也。”现代解释为:由风、寒、湿、热等引起的以肢体关节及肌肉酸痛、麻木、重着、屈伸不利,甚或关节肿大灼热等为主症的一类病证。病因有正虚和邪侵。而目前对于“弊”的翻译也五花八门,如”arthralgia”(关节痛)、”disadvantage”(不利)等,虽然该译法易于理解,但是却意义狭窄,不够全面。不能代表“痹”特点:多种病因夹杂而成且与体质病性等相关。所以此处,不妨直接采用音译的方法,即为“Bi-syndrome”,从而避免误解。

当然,音译亦不可滥用,如果英语中有对应的单词可以完整的表达含义时,尽量不要选用音译,以免增加理解上的困难。而文章中在首次使用音译词时,最好将详细含义注释于后,以帮助理解。初学者亦可以借助中医英语字典。待逐步形成约定俗成的翻译法时,便可省去此步骤。随着中国在世界上影响力的提升,汉语文化的传播也越来越广,相信中医音译法必将在中医翻译中越来越受欢迎。

小结

所谓上乘之译,无非是自然流畅且符合原文之意的译文。然和对于中医来说,翻译出上乘的文章来并非易事。丰富的中医知识和较高的英文水平都是必不可少的。本文中提到两种方法(一词多译和音译),笔者认为对多义词的翻译较为适用,当然翻译时也要结合实际情况,灵活掌握。秉着将中医推广到世界的共同目的,相信越来越多的人会加入到翻译队伍,统一完整的翻译理论体系也指日可待。

[摘要]多义词和同形异义词的明显区别在于二者的起源、词源学说及词义的相关原则。他们当中有的可通过区分其特征加以辨别,但仍有一些词汇无法用上述方法识别。英语学习者要掌握其特殊的语义特征,将二者熟练地运用到日常生活及文学作品之中。

[关键词]同形异义词 多义词 英语学习

作为语言的基本单位,词汇是英语学习中非常重要的一部分。在词汇学习的过程中,我们会遇到诸多困难。其中之一便是多义词与同形异义词的区分。多义词即一个词具有多种意义、且意义之间密切相关。例如,hand的词义多达五个:He was walking with a book in his hand.(手);The hand of the clock goes around„(指针);He is a good hand at games.(有某种经验的人);He writes a good hand.(字迹,手迹);The sculpture of Lei Feng shows a master hand.(手艺,技能)。而同形异义词则是指那些形状相同、但各词义却相差甚远、毫无关联的词。以bear为例,She cannot bear children.可作出两种解释:第一,She has no ability to give birth to children;第二,She cannot tolerate children。由于多义词和同形异义词都是形同而义不同,所以学习者难以区别。

(一)多义词和同形异义词的起源

1.多义词的起源。多义词产生的第一种方式是辐射。在这个过程中,原有的词义作为核心词义派生出许多新的词义。换言之,多义词的产生就是一个单词意义结构的不断发展和扩张。当一个单词刚出现时,只被赋予一个词义,即原始词义。随着时间的推移和语言的不断发展,该单词被赋予越来越多的词义,即派生词义。例如,neck的核心词义是that part of man or animal joining the head to the body,即脖子,下列词义都是从这一词义派生而来:①that part of the garment,即衣领;②the neck of an animal used as food,即动物颈肉;③the narrowest part of anything,即细长部分,颈部。虽然neck的三个派生词义不尽相同,却都与其原始词义有关。其中,①为词义转化;②为词义专业化;③为词义延伸。

多义词产生的第二种方式是连锁变化,是指一个词可能在其它意义上失去其原始意义的意义转换过程,即一个词所产生的意义与其原始意义无关。cheater是词义连锁变化的一个典型例子。最初它是指充公产业官员(an officer who attended to escheats),后来又指不诚实的充公产业官员(an escheator who was dishonest)。如今cheater只保留了“不诚实的人”的意思,这与其原始词义大相径庭。

词义在辐射变化中,派生词义与原始词义密切联系。而在连锁变化中,每个派生词义只和与其邻近的词义有联系。作为多义词的不同发展阶段,辐射变化与连锁变化紧密相连。一般而言,辐射变化先于连锁变化。在很多情况下,这两种变化相互补充。

2.同形异义词的起源。同形异义词的起源主要有三种:一是音和形的改变。有些同形异义词在语言发展的最初阶段由于来自不同的词源,发音也不同,但后来在语言的发展过程中,尤其是在经历了“元音大转变”之后偶然汇合成同形异义词。例如,ear有两个来源,其一是来自古英语的eare,意为耳朵,另一个是来自古英语的aer,意为植物的穗;二是吸收外来语。由于大量从外语中吸收词汇,导致了许多外来词汇碰巧与英语中的一些词汇在发音和拼写方面完全一致,造成了许多同形异义词。例如,作“市场”讲的fair是来自拉丁语的feria,而作“非常”讲的fair则来自古英语的faeger。另一来源则是古法语中的baler,即舞会;三是词语缩略的结果。有些同形异义词是通过缩略方法造成的。如cab←cabriolet(双轮马车),cab←cabin(小屋),cab←cabbage(洋白菜)。

(二)多义词与同形异义词的辨别

由以上分析可看出,多义词和同形异义词是两个截然不同的概念。问题是,当遇到两个音和形完全相同的单词时,如何判断它们是多义词的两个词义还是同形异义词呢?在这种情况下,只能从词源学和相关原则来辨别。

1.词源学。词源学研究词语的起源,为了辨别多义词和同形异义词,可以从单词的历史发展入手。多义词往往是一个单词的原始意义不断演变的结果,其各个词义在某种程度上彼此联系,如上文所举的hand。而同形异义词之间却是彼此独立,且起源截然不同,类似的例子也是不胜枚举。

事实上,英语中的一些单词不能简单地以这一原则来判断。英语中有个别单词词义毫无关联,却有着同样的来源。例如,sole(鞋底,脚底;比目鱼)和pupil(学生;瞳孔)的两个词义毫无联系,而它们的词源却是一样的。相反,有人把彼此毫不相干的词义认为是多义词的不同词义,如上文所提到的ear(耳朵;谷穗),从词源角度应该是同形义异词,但现在却被许多人认为是多义词。

2.相关原则。辨别多义词与同形异义词的另一方法是相关原则。如果词义之间彼此联系则该词为多义词,反之则为同形异义词。这一原则对词典编纂者非常重要,因为在词典中,多义词的不同词义列在同一词目下,而同形异义词的不同词义则列在不同词目下。例如,在《柯林斯英语字典》中,hook的词义多达十个,列在该词目之下。而hooker有两组毫无关系的词义,列在两个词目之下。

(三)多义词和同形异义词的语义模糊

由于多义词有多个词义,同形异义词音和形都相同,二者经常在日常生活中引起语义含糊。例如Are you engaged?这个句子,由于engaged的多义性,可以至少有两种解释:“你忙吗?”和“你订婚了吗?”选择哪一种应视具体语境而定。鉴于多义词和同形异义词的这一特点,它们经常被作家、政治家等巧妙运用,以取得一种意想不到的效果。

英国著名作家狄更斯在其小说《雾都孤儿》中就利用board的一词多义,生动地叙述了这样的场景:当Oliver被董事会叫去时,听到有人喝声道:“Bow the board”(向董事会的人鞠躬),可Oliver未明白此话,在那里又未见到“木板”,只好向桌子鞠了一躬。这一场景的描述,通过多义词board的运用,将Olive表现出的尴尬描写得淋漓尽致。

美国历史上著名的政治家、科学家、作家、《独立宣言》的起草人富兰克林,就也利用多义词hang说过这样的话,“We must hang together,or we shall all hang separately。”此句中,使用两次hang,使整个句子寓意深刻,耐人寻味。第一个hang与together连用表示团结,第二个hang与separately表示若不团结则会出现相反的结果。

(四)结语

多义词和同形异义词是英语中的普遍现象,有时人们很难判断一个具有多种意义的词到底是多义词还是同形异义词。由以上分析我们不难看出,多义词和同形异义词貌似相同,实则不同。它们当中有的可通过其起源、词源学及相关原则加以辨别,但仍有一些词汇无法用上述方法识别。鉴于其特殊的语义特征,二者被广泛地运用到日常生活及文学作品中。
