1.Introduction

“The definition of advertisement by AMA(American Marketing Association): Advertising is the nonpersonal communication usually paid for and usually persuasive in nature about products, services of ideas by identified sponsors through the various media.[1] It is a device to arouse consumers’ attention to a commodity and induce them to use it.In modern age, people find themselves surrounded by various advertisements each day.An American writer writes: “ we find advertisement of all kinds everywhere, for example, glittering neon signs on top of high buildings and a long main streets, colorful pictures painted on buses pamphlets sent to very house, advertisement jammed between TV programs various advertisement glutting, newspaper and radio broadcast;etc.”[2] Facing so many advertisement, how to make the advertisement impressive is the main purpose of the advertisers.In order to enhance the appeal of an advertisement, advertisers pay much attention not only to such expressive devices as plates, color and the layout of a printed page, but also to the choice of words or phrases, to make an advertisement beautiful and attractive.In the practice of the advertising English, people pay more attention to pun to make the advertisement succinct, accurate and vivid and to provide rich imagination and plentiful associations for readers so as to stimulate their desire.The frequent and wide use of figures of speech is an important characteristic of advertising English, which is an effective way to make the advertisement attractive.Among the figures, pun is loved deeply.Oxford Advanced Dictionary defines pun as “humorous use of a word that has two meanings or of different words that sound the same”.[3] A pun(also known as paronomasia)can be understood like that it is a deliberate confusion of similar-sounding words of phrases for rhetorical effect, whether humorous or serious.It leaves a deep impression on readers by its readability, wit and humor.It can satisfy the requirement of advertisement characteristics—selling power, memory value, attention value, and readability.So pun is very popular in advertisement.The article just wants to present the pragmatic function and application of pun in advertisement.2.Types of pun in advertisement

A pun is a rhetorical device in which people use the polysemous, or homonymous relation of a language to cause a word, a sentence of a discourse to involve two things of meanings.It has several types.2.1 pun on polysemy

“While different words may have the same of similar meaning, the same one word may have more than one meaning.This is what we call polysemy, and such a word is called polysemic word.Historically speaking, polysemy can be understood as the growth and development of or change in the meaning of words.”[4] pun on polysemy is used widely, especially with the name of the product such as the following examples:

[1] “From sharp minds.Come sharp products.”[5]

The example is an advertisement for the Sharp copier.The word “sharp” praises the consumers’ brightness, but also refers to the Sharp product.The advertisement praises the consumers who are sharp to buy the product which is sharp.The vanity of the audiences is aroused and they want to use it to show their wise, and also they believe the product is really sharp.[2] “Money doesn’t grow on the trees.But it blossoms at our branches.Lioyd Bank.”[6]

It is the slogan of Lioyd Bank.“branch” means “part of a tree growing out from the trunk”, but here it implies the division of bank”.The slogan encourages people to store their money in Lioyd Bank, and their money will be like the blooming flowers, yielding better fruits.After understanding its meaning, readers will figure it out in mind that their money will become more and more daily and daily, just like the leaves in spring.2.2 pun on Homonymy

“Homonymy refers to the phenomenon that words with different meanings have the same form, i.e, different words are identical in sound or spelling, or in both.When two words are identical in sound, they are homophones.When the words are identical in spelling, they are homographs.When two words are identical in both spelling and sound, they are complete homonyms.”[7] The follow instances will explain that:

[3] “ ‘VIps’ an atomical comfort.Variable Impact pressure Sole”[8]

The advertisement of sportshoes uses the homophonic word “VIps”.As we know, VIp usually stands for “ very important persons”, while, here, it stands for “Variable Impact pressure Sole”.It implies if you use VIps, you will be a VIp.The word “VIps’ motivates the audiences’ vanity and induces them to buy the product.[4] “Trust us.Over 5000 ears of experience.”[9]

It is an advertisement for audiphone.The literal meaning is that the product has experienced a lot of texts.While “ears” and “years” are a pair of homophone.So it implies that the product has a long history and has high quality.[5] “Goodbuy

Winter!

100% cotton knitwear $40”[10]

It is an advertisement for the sale of winter clothes.The advertisement seems to people that it s a good and cheap to buy cotton knitwear.But when the audiences read “goodbuy winter” together, they will understand the good use of pun.“Goodbuy winter” sounds the same as “goodbye winter”.The advertisement use homophone to show two meanings: it is a good business to buy the cotton knitwear now, and winter has passed away.Naturally, people will associate the situation happening every year that when they say goodbye to winter, the clothes will have a great discount and it is good time to buy them.[6] “More sun and air for your sun and heir.”[11]

The advertisement is for a bathing beach.The advertiser uses homophone skilfully, sun vs.son, and air vs.heir.The advertiser encourages people to bring their son and heir to the bathing beach to get sun and air to keep fit.Each couple hopes their son and heir will be healthy all their life.pun makes the advertising language sound sweet, fluent and persuasive.2.3 pun on parody

“parody is a piece of speech, writing of music that imitates the style of an author, composer, etc in an amusing and often exaggerate way.”[12] pun on parody uses the outfit of saying, apothegm, proverb or idiom to form new meanings.English has a lot of well-known phrases, idioms and sayings.They are important part of everyday language spoken by the English speakers, and have become one of the aspects of the English culture.The advertisement designers are sharp-minded and imaginative.They change a part of the expressions and put their ideas into them to achieve sensational effect.And most of them achieve a remarkable success.The transformations are not only eye catching, but also easy to be accepted by the common, who will do according to the tradition.As the sayings of idioms have been one part of the tradition, the people will be easily persuaded by the advertisement works of this kind.So pun on parody is popular in advertisement.[7] “A Mars a day helps you work, rest and play.”[13]

It is the slogan of Mars chocolate company.Looking at this advertisement, people will associate it with two idioms: “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” and “ All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy”.From the meanings of the two idioms, the watchword tells people that a Mars’ chocolate a day will make you not be a dull boy(make you wise)and keep the doctor away(keep fit).[8] “Try our sweet corn, you’ll smile from ear to ear.”[14]

It is taken from the advertisement for a kind of sweet corn.The word “ear” has double meanings: the organ of hearing and the seed –bearing part of a cereal.Te idiom “ from ear to ear” also is a pun.One meaning is that people are satisfied with the product.The other one is that the consumers eat one ear by another.So the advertisement implies that the sweet corn is very delicious, and you will enjoy it and eating one by one.How can people refuse such delicious food?

[9] “All is well that ends well.”[15]

This is an idiom, but here, it is taken from an advertisement of a cigarette.“End”, as a verb, means “finish”, while, as a noun, means “cigarette butt”.The sentence means that if the cigarette ends are good that the cigarette is good.2.4 pun on Grammar

Many advertisers use pun produced for grammar problem to attract the audiences, such as ellipsis or word with different grammar functions.If this type of pun can be used properly, it will achieve unexpected effect.[10] “Which lager can claim to be truly German?

This can.” [16]

It is an advertisement for Lager beer.“Can” is a modal verb.But in the advertisement, a can of beer beside it reminds people “can” has another meaning—tin.Also “Lager” refers to the name of beer.With the illustration, the whole advertisement brings a humorous effect and impresses the audiences deeply.The Coca-cola company also uses “can” to do their advertisement.[11] “Coke refreshes you like no other can.” [17]

Just like last example, “ can ” has double meanings, so the sentence can be understand like that Coke refreshes you like no other(can;tin, drink)can(refresh you).It implies their product is the best one.Of course, people like to buy the best one.2.5 pun on Illustration and Words

A lot of advertisement associates with illustrations and words to achieve better effect, especially on TV, because people are more easily attracted by pictures than words.The illustrations and words can help people to understand the advertisement fully.pun in the advertisement must be connected with illustrations and words, so people can understand the implied meanings.For instances:

[12] “50% OFF.”[18]

It is a shopwindow advertisement of E-spirit exclusive shop in Shanghai from 2001 and spring festival.The illustration is a picture with six lights, three on and three off.From the illustration, people know it does not only mean a half of the lights are off, but also means the whole sale discounts 50%.The illustration and words are vivid, and attract the passers-by’ attention more easily.[13] “Stop at two.”[19]

It is the title of an public service advertising(pSA)which the population and community Development Association(pCDA)of Thailand uses to advocate the couple to have children no more than two.The illustration is the photo of Wistern Churchill who formed a “V” letter with his forefinger and middle finger.The gesture “V” means victory.So people also can understand that it is a victory to have only one child.This picture is famous, so people will remember it easily.To achieve the success of their country, people may more like to control the population.3.pragmatic analysis of advertisement pun

From analyses above, people can understand that a pun usually uses one word in a sentence relating to double meanings, surface meaning and implicit meanings, which is the main idea the speaker wants to convey.The advertisers like to use the double meanings to produce ambiguity.While, analyzing from pragmatic maxims, it breaches Cooperative principle.Just look at another example:

[14]You’ll go nuts for the nuts you get in Nux.[20]

In the advertisement, “go nuts” means “go to buy nuts”, here in the advertisement, it also means “go crazy” in the daily English expression.And “Nux” is the name of the product.So it means the nuts will make you crazy if you buy them in Nux.The use of pun violates the Cooperative principle, but what is Cooperative principle?

3.1 Cooperative principle

“The theory of conversational implicature was originally suggested by Herbert paul Grice, an Oxford philosopher, who later went to America.”[21] His approximation is “We might formulate a tough general principle which participants will be expected to observe namely: Make your conversational contribution such as is required, at the stage at which it occurs, by the accepted purpose of direction of the talk exchange in which you are engaged.One might label this the COOpERATIVE pRINCIpLE.”[22]

“In order to explain further the cooperative principle, abbreviated as Cp, Grice borrows from the German philosopher Immanuel Kant four categories: quantity, quality, relation and manner.That is, the Cp is specified from four aspects.And the content of each category is known as maxim.3.1.2 Quantity

a.Make your contribution as informative as is required(for the current purpose of the exchange)

b.Do not make your contribution more informative than is required”[23]

That is to say the quantity of the information you give must suit for the requirement, no less, no more.For instance, if you go to buy one pen, but the assistant gives you two pens, he breaches the Quantity.Because he should give one pen to you that you want.3.1.2 “Quality

a.Do not say what you believe to be false

b.Do not say that for which you lack adequate evidence”[24]

It means that the speaker can’t tell lies but only can say that which has been proved to be right fact.However, if the speaker thinks what he says is right, but in fact it is false, he still obeys the principle.Give you an example, if someone asks you to go shopping with him, but you don’t like to, so you tell him that you have a meeting tonight.At this time, you violate Quality, for you have told lies to your friend.3.1.3“Relation: be relevant”[25]

That means what you say must be relevant.For example, when you are hungry, you don’t expect you partner giving you a book, but a cake, because cake is relevant to your feeling at this situation.3.1.4 “Manner

a.Avoid obscurity of expression

b.Avoid ambiguity

c.Be brief(avoid unnecessary prolixity)

c.Be orderly”[26]

The maxim requires the words speaker used must be concise and without ambiguity.For instance:

[15] A: Will you go to Xiamen tomorrow?

B: Maybe.In the case, B violates Manner, because his answer is ambiguous.A still can’t get the answer he wants.After the explanation of Cp, a better understanding will be made by readers on above examples, which have violated the Cp.But why do the advertisers like to use pun to violate the Maxims deliberately? The answer can also be given by Grice.3.2 Violation of the maxims

Grice thought only both speaker and listener obey the principle, could their intercourse be concordant and harmonic.While he also noticed that people didn’t always obey the principle in social activity, on the contrary, they breached it intentionally.So Grice gives four ways to explain the failure to fulfill a maxim.“Firstly, he may quietly and unostentatiously VIOLATE a maxim;if so, in some cases he will be liable to mislead.” It means you are intentional to violate the maxim.[27] For example: If someone invites you to join in a party, but you don’t like to.Avoiding offence to him, you may say, “ sorry, I have promised Jim to go shopping”.At this time, you know you tell lies, but you have to.“Secondly, he may OpT OUT from the operation both of the maxim and the Cp;he may say, indicate, or allow it to become plain that he is unwilling to cooperate in the way the maxim requires.He may say, for example, I cannot say more;my lips are sealed.Thirdly, he may be faced by a CLASH: he may be unable, for example, to fulfill the first maxim of Quality(Be as informative as is required)without violating the second maxim of Quality(have adequate evidence for what you say).”[28] For example:

[16] A: Where does X live?

B: Somewhere in the suburbs of the city.The answer of B breaches the Quantity, because he provides less information that A wants to know.But if B really doesn’t know where X lives, he obeys the Quality that do not say what you lack adequate evidence;if B knows the address of B, yet he does not want to tell A, then he implicates that he doesn’t want to tell A.“Fourthly, he may FLOUT a maxim;that is, he may BLATANTLY fail to fulfill it.On the assumption that the speaker is able to fulfill the maxim and to do so without violating another maxim(because of a clash), is not opting out, and is not, in view of the blatancy of his performance, trying to mislead, the hearer faced with a minor problem;How can his saying what he did say be reconciled with the supposition that he is observing the overall Cp? This situation is one that characteristically gives rise to a conversational implicature;and when a conversational implicature is generated in this way, I say that a maxim is being EXpLOITED.”[29] Give an example:

[17] A: Where is Mary?

B: There is a blue car outside Bill’s house.In the conversation, B breaches Quantity, but if A assumes that B is willing to cooperate with him, he will try to relate his question to B’s answer.Basing on their common sense that Mary has a blue car, and then he will understand that B is telling him that Mary is at Bill’s house.In advertisement, the advertiser violates the cooperative principle in the fourth way to attain a certain purpose, thus making the utterance produce ambiguity.Although the advertisement disobeys the principle, but it can arouse the audiences curiosity and induce them to buy the product and at last achieve a better effect.Look at some advertisements:

[18] “You can buy Happiness.”[30]

It is the slogan of a shampoo advertisement.The advertisement breaches the Manner Maxim—avoid ambiguity, for happiness has double meanings here: “delight” and “the name of the product”.It wants to express the meaning that if you buy Happiness, you will attain happiness.Although it breaches the Cooperative principle, it impresses the audiences deeply and arouses their interest to have a try.[19] “In our country we keep animals in the forest and people in the cages.” [31]

It is the advertisement for Volvo Car Company.From the ad, people may give an assumption that they keep animals in the forest while shut themselves in the cages.But to the common sense, the phenomenon is impossible.So the advertisement breaches the Quality that you only can say what you think is right.But through the context of the advertisement, the audiences can understand the cages refer to Volvo car, and finally know the meaning of the advertisement that the Volvo Company aims at producing more and better cars for people.[20] “The Unique Spirit of Canada: we bottled it.Right to the finish, its Canadian spirit stands out from the ordinary.What keeps the flavor coming.Super lightness.Supper taste.If that’s where you’d like to head, set your course for Lord Calvert Canadian.” [32]

The example is taken from the advertisement of Lord Calvert Canadian.At the first sight of the advertisement, people would be drawn, for they wonder what’s the unique spirit of Canada.After thinking, they would find “To bottle the spirit” has two meanings here: one is to bottle the liquor;the other is to put the Canadian spirit into this liquor.The advertisement breaches Manner Maxim but arouses people’s curiosity.pun in the advertisement has a great function.4.The pragmatic function of pun in advertisement

pun has a lot of advantages such as conciseness, wit and humor, novelty and vividness.It produces a particularly rhetorical and pragmatic effect when people use the language creatively in a specified context.The proper use can make the advertisement impressive and attractive.4.1 Wit and humor

pun, the game of word, produces wit and humor effect to attract the audiences’ attention and inspires their association.In the age of rapid rhythm, advertisement with pun like a spice makes people enjoy themselves in the advertising atmosphere, and reduces their pressure in a relaxed environment.[21] “When the wind has a bite… and you feel like a bite… then bite on a whole Nut.”[33]

The word “bite” has several meanings: grip, food, and eat.The whole sentence means that when the strong wind hurts you and you are very hungry, just eat some Nut.After day working, people would feel tired and hungry, while the advertisement is just the situation of them.Therefore, they would be attracted to buy the product, so they will not suffer hunger after work.Also, the sentence sounds like tongue twist.[22] “Excellent Taste!”[34]

It is a word in an advertisement for a whiskey product—Jamson.In the advertisement, when the hero drank the Jamson whiskey that the heroine introduced to him, he said, “Excellent Taste”.Generally speaking, “taste” means “favor”, but here, another meaning is “the ability to appreciate what is beautiful”.So the advertisement means: this kind f whiskey as good flavor;the heroine has high appreciation.The advertiser uses pun to praise both the product and the consumers who choose their product.It caters for people’ vanity and induces them to buy the product.4.2 Creativeness and originality

This is typical of advertising language.An advertisement has a high demand of diction every word playing an important role.If human emotions have to be inspired, the words, strong in expressing emotions, will be chosen.In advertisement, originality is king.A new way of sending message can set a brand apart from copycats and also-rans.So it is important to use something novel such as coinage in the advertisement to draw people’ attention.Normally, a new created word accepted by readers can enhance the freshness and attraction of the advertisement.Good advertisers use coinage to refresh the advertisement and to achieve its propagandist purpose.[23] “Cab Fourward.”[35]

It is an advertisement title of Ram Car produced by Doqi company.The word “fourward” sounds like “forward”.Connecting it with the picture in the advertisement, people would know why it uses ‘fourward”.Because the four doors of this kind of car could be opened from four directions.The advertiser creates the word “fourward” from “forward” to show the speciality of the car.[24] “Catch the Raincheetah and cheat the rain.”[36]

It is an advertisement in Toronto Daily Star.The punny word “Raincheetah”, the name of the raincoat, sounds like “raincheater” while the word “raincheater” derives from “windcheater”.The word “cheat” in the sentence makes it wonderful and let people feel that this kind of raincoat can protect the consumers well.pun gives people impression of novelty and interest.4.3 Satisfying people’s requirement of beauty

A good advertisement is a text from which people can appreciate the art of language, especially advertisement using pun.pun in advertisement is orderly and antithetic that makes people feel the aesthetic modality of language.The characters of pun, such as vividness, wit and humor, pleasure people’s spirit and let them enjoy the beauty of language.For instance:

[25] “Give your hair a touch of spring.”[37]

It is an advertisement for shampoo.The word “spring” here is very vivid and like a picture in people’ mind: after using the shampoo, the long hair becomes elastic and shining.When you stand there, your hair will go with wind.Everyone likes beauty, so the advertisement caters for people’ desire and induces them to buy the product to make them more beautiful.4.4 Satisfying the requirement of society--Economy

With the rapid development of the society, people become busier and busier, so they require short and easy remembered advertisement to supply the message they want.But how to impress the audiences is a question.The answer is using pun.But why is pun especially favored by the advertiser? The main reasons as following:

“Firstly, advertisement is paid message, with limited space and time, so it doesn’t allow verbiage to waste the investment.pun with double meaning has the characteristic of small carrier but plenty of connotations.So it is very economic, effective and money-saving to the advertiser.Secondly, in modern society, people pay more and more attention to effect, and get tired of the tedious advertisement.The pun in advertisement is usually formed by short sentences.Some use the name of the product as the theme of the advertisement.Some use excellent phrases to show the specialties of the product.To the audiences, it saves their time to get the information they want.Thirdly, usually, the audiences read or watch advertisement unintentionally and only can remember something unconsciously.So, to achieve expected propagandist effect, the advertisement must reduce the memory message.pun is suitable for the requirement.The content is short, the form rhythmic, and the style novel, which are easily remembered and impressed people deeply.”[38]

In a word, pun uses fewer words to express full message which is the content of Economy principle, and it usually reaches the purpose of advertisement that is arouse consumers’ attention to a commodity and induce them to use it.For instance:

[26] “Two beer or not two beer, that’s a question.----Shakesbeer”[39]

Looking at the beer advertisement, people would associate it with the proverb “To be or knot to be, that’s a question” in Hamlet.Shakesbeer is the name of the beer, but it sounds like “Shakespeare” who is known nearly all over the world, so it is easy for people to remember the Shakesbeer.And the word said by Hamlet is also very famous, especially in western country.The sentence is short and the pattern is famous, so people will remember the product naturally.[27] “Go well, Go Shell.”[40]

It is an advertisement for Shell Oil Company.“Well” sounds like “where”, so it implies that go to Shell company to buy oil.Only four words are used in the advertisement, but express the meaning fully and impress people deeply.Imagine that one day, when you drive your car, suddenly, the oil is run out.So you are wondering where to go, then, of course, you will remember the words “Go well, go Shell”.So you will go to Shell at once.The slogans impress the audiences deeply and persuade them to buy the product invisibly.[28] “Make Time For Time.”[41]

It is an advertisement for Time magazine.The advertisement uses the pun on homonymy of the word “time” to refer two meanings: common sense of time, and the name of he magazine.The advertisement means that read Time magazine to seize time.In the society full of competition, time is important and magazines also play an important role which people have to read to broaden their view.While Time magazine will not only broaden view, but also save your time.It satisfies people’s requirement.4.5 Implying Warning

Some advertisements imply warming.pun can make the warming vivid and effective so that people can pay attention to it.For instances:

[29] “Better late than the late.”[42]

It is a public service advertising of traffic.It derives from the proverb “Better late than never”.In the sentence, “the late” means” the dead”, and it reminds the drivers to drive slowly and carefully.The advertisement with pun here has more powerful to persuade the drivers to care their security.Another example:

[30] “The driver is safer when the road is dry;

The road is safer when the driver is dry.”[43]

It is also an advertisement for safe driving.The excellent word is “dry” which has double meanings: without water and without drinking.It expresses if the road is dry and the driver doesn’t drink, all drivers will be safer.The antitheses and thyme of the sentence has more powerful to warm people.4.6.Making the product more profitable and competitive

The speciality of pun is useful in advertisement, and favored by people.If a advertiser can make full use of it to satisfy people’s requirement, the product may precede others and gain the market.[31] “A deal with us means a good deal to you.”[44]

Here, the double meanings of “deal” are: the amount and business.The meanings of the advertisement are that: do trade with us is a good business to you;doing business with us, you will get a lot.Advertisers use pun skilful to inspire the audiences’ curiosity and attract their interest to do the deal.[32] “powe to influence others.”[45]

It is an advertisement for a Hector powe Clothing Company.They advocate that if you wear their clothes, you will have power to influence other people.Because “powe” is like “power”.It satisfies people’s desire of power, so they like to have a try.Thus, it will bring great profit to the powe company.Maybe people with the clothes can’t have more power, but the company has the power to influence the market.5.Conclusion

Advertisement is a way for the company to propaganda their product.To gain the market among the severe competition, it is important to carry out a wonderful advertisement to promote their product, and figures of speech is an effective way to achieve the purpose.Among the figures, pun is a wide and frequent approach, because it is an effective way to make the advertisement attractive, accurate, striking, vivid and forceful.Although pun violates the pragmatic maxims, it can correspond to the requirement that said by Geoffrey N.Leech, a famous British linguist, that advertising words must be vivid, conspicuous and impressive, with high readability and the force to promote sales, so it is used widely in advertisement.pun in advertisement has many forms of expression such as pun on polysemy, homophone, hononymy, parody, illustrations and words, grammar, etc.and can result in the effects of humor, wit, beauty, economy, warning, and even makes the product more competitive and profitable.So only understand its pragmatic analysis, types and function of pun, can it be used rightly and make the advertisement sweet to the ear, and pleasing both the eye and mind.Bibliography

摘 要:双关语是英语广告中一种较为常见的修辞手段。双关语的翻译本身就是一个难点,而广告中双关语的翻译则更加复杂。本文从语音双关、语义双关、语法双关和成语、俗语双关等几方面对双关语的运用技巧作了阐述。并在考虑双关语的双重含义及广告语体风格的基础上,从契合译法、分别表义法、套译法、侧重译法和补偿译法等方面对英语广告双关语的翻译作了初步的探讨。

Abstract: Punning is one of the most common rhetorical devices used in advertisement.This paper is about the techniques of punning and the translation of puns in English advertisements.There are various ways to form puns in advertisements.The translation of puns is difficult because of the double meanings, and the translation of puns in advertisements is even more difficult because one must keep both the double meanings of a pun and the style of the advertisement in mind.Key words: advertising language;pun;translation

引 言

不论是商品广告,还是公益广告,广告的创作都是一门综合性艺术。它集社会学、美学、心理学、市场营销学、声电学、文学、语言学等于一身。这门艺术中的文案写作比其它形式的写作都更需要技巧。它要利用推销原理写出雅俗共赏、生动有趣的文字,要具有特殊的感染力,能在瞬间引起读者注意,刺激其购买欲望,最终促成购买行为。因此广告文案中文学语言运用精当会使得广告语言的内涵与影响远远超出广告本身。双关语这一修辞手段是广告创作常用的技巧。双关,顾名思义,就是在特定的语言环境中用一种语言文字形式表达出一明一暗双重意义,既引人注意,又能引起联想。双关语具有简洁凝练,风趣幽默,新颖别致等修辞效果,能够突出广告的特点,因而在广告中得到大量应用。

1.双关语在广告中的运用

作为一种修辞手段,双关语在广告中比较常用,它存在于语音、词汇、句法等各个语言层面。在广告中,广告制作者为了增加广告的吸引力,挖空心思地追求新的创意,使得双关语在广告中的运用技巧更加纷繁复杂。巧妙的双关能使语言含蓄、幽默、生动、给人以回味和想象的余地。较为常见的有以下几个方面。

1.1.谐音双关

―谐音双关是用拼写相似,发音相同或相近的词构成的‖ 1。广告制作者非常乐于使用谐音双关,因为此类双关具有风趣、幽默、俏皮、滑稽的语言风格,能增强广告的说服力和感染力,从而给消费者留下深刻的印象。

(1)More sun and air for your son and heir.2

译文:这里有充足的阳光,清新的空气,一切为了您的子孙后代。

在这则海滨浴场的宣传广告中,制作者巧妙地运用了sun-son, air-heir这两对谐音字,使广告语言不仅和谐悦耳,读来朗朗上口,而且颇风趣、幽默,具有感召力。

(2)Trust us.Over 5000 ears of experience.3

译文:相信我们吧。历经5000多只耳朵的检验,有着5000多年的经验。

这是一则助听器推销广告。从字面看,它说明了该产品已经接受了众多消费者的考验,但字里行间巧妙地嵌入一对谐音字ears-years,充分暗示了该产品悠久的历史,久经考验的上乘质量。

许多广告都在商品品牌的名称上做文章。品牌名称中的双关语不仅能增加广告的趣味性和幽默感,更重要的是使品牌名称更能吸引人们的注意力,便于记忆,增加宣传攻势力度,以此达到宣传产品的目的。品牌名称中的双关语大多采用谐音的方法。

(3)WEAR-EVER introduces a new concept in glass oven ware: CLEANABILITY.4

译文:―恒久‖玻璃炉具带给你一个全新的概念:洁净。

这里生产商利用其商标WEAR-EVER一词多义的特点,大力推销其产品:一方面WEAR-EVER为其品牌名称,另一方面该词又另有含义:既为wear forever(体现产品结实耐用),又为wherever(说明到处受人欢迎)。该广告从多角度推销其产品,能够激起顾客的购买欲望,具有一定的劝说作用。

1.2.语义双关

―语义双关是利用词语或句子的多义性在特定环境下形成的双关‖ 5。这种双关在广告中运用得也非常广泛,它与谐音双关有异曲同工之妙。

(4)The label of achievements.Black Label commands more respects.6

译文:酒是功成名就的标志。黑色标志使您更显尊贵。

语义双关也多见于品牌名称中。这是一则威士忌酒的广告,Label有两层含义,一为―标志‖,一为酒的牌子—Black Label。该广告通过双关手段的运用,使人联想到功成名就时就要饮用该酒;同时,用品牌名称形成双关,又便于消费者对品牌的记忆,从而对商品发生兴趣。

(5)Spoil yourself and not your figure.7

译文:尽情大吃,不增体重。

这是Weight-Watcher冰淇淋的广告标题,这种冰淇淋是专为节食者生产的。双关不仅存在于商品商标名称中,标题中的spoil也是双关所在。spoil oneself意为―尽兴‖;而spoil one’s figure则意为―破坏了体形‖。这则广告通过一语双关,使减肥者在轻松幽默的语气中很自然地接受该广告,并能使其产生购买欲望。

(6)A deal with us means a good deal to you.8

译文:和我们做买卖意味着您做了一笔好买卖。

该句的妙处在于很好地利用了句中deal的三种含义,―做买卖‖、―一笔好买卖‖和―许多‖。a good deal构成一个绝妙的双关。

1.3.语法双关

语法双关是指由于语法方面的问题产生的双关,如省略结构、某词或词组具有两种以上语法功能等。

(7)Which lager can claim to be truly German?

This can.(旁边画有一罐啤酒)9

译文:哪种大罐啤酒可称得上是地道的德国货?这罐。

这是一则Lager牌淡啤酒的广告。句中的can既可作情态动词,又可作名词(饮料罐)。由于can一语双关,加上Lager的品牌名称双关,以及旁边插图的妙用,使广告产生了一定的幽默效果,给读者以深刻的印象。

无独有偶,可口可乐公司也在这个can字上做文章。

(8)Coke refreshes you like no other can.10

译文:没有什么能像可乐那样令您神清气爽。

句中can既可理解为名词―罐,听‖,又可看成是情态动词―能‖,全句可理解为Coke refreshes you like no other(can: tin, drink)can(refresh you)。11 这则广告诙谐机智,富于文字情趣,能使商品连同这一广告词一起久久印在读者记忆里。

1.4.成语或俗语双关

广告语言特别善于引用一些人们耳熟能详的成语或俗语。这些广告以人们原有的社会、文化知识为基础,以鲜明、独特的语言形式形成双关,既增强了广告的吸引力,又体现了广告语言的艺术性,更使广告具有令人回味的弦外之音。

(9)You’ll go nuts for the nuts you get in Nux.12

译文:纳克斯坚果让你爱不释口。

从广告的字面意义看,to go nuts是―去买坚果‖,但它同时还是一句成语,意为―疯狂、发疯‖。双关语的运用表明了纳克斯牌坚果对人们的吸引力是无以抗拒的。

(10)A Mars a day keeps you work, rest and play.13

译文:一天一块玛斯巧克力,让您工作像工作,娱乐像娱乐。

这则广告让人们联想起两条非常熟悉的成语:An apple a day keeps the doctors away和All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy。该广告不仅在语言形式上借用了成语的模式,同时还引用了两条成语的内容,让人们从久已熟知的成语中得出一个新的判断:玛斯牌巧克力不仅能使人们健康,而且让人们工作时精力充沛,休息时放松自如。

2.广告双关语的翻译

广告语言是一种精炼、含蓄、富有表现力和鼓动性的语言,而双关又是双重意义的表达,在语言结构和表达上存在着难以逾越的可译性障碍。因此,英语广告双关的翻译应根据广告的内容和特点,选用适当的汉语表达方式,既要充分照顾到原文的语体风格,又要尽量传达出原文的信息。采用辩证的翻译方法,尽可能减少双关语在翻译中信息量的流失,增强广告语体特征,英语广告双关语的翻译还是可能的。

2.1 契合译法

一般认为,双关语由音、形、义等手段构成了可译性障碍,存在不可译性。但―有些双关语也不是绝对不可译。双语偶合,是可能的‖ 14。契合译法在双语偶合的基础上,兼顾了广告双关语的形式和内容,是广告双关语翻译的最高境界。

(11)Easier dusting by a stre-e-etch!15

stretch一词除了作为除尘布的品牌名称―拉长‖外,其拼写还被别出心裁地拉长,传达出该词的本意―延伸‖。让人很容易感到除尘布能延长人手臂的功能,真切而形象地渲染了―拉拉拉长,除尘力强‖的功效。译文中―拉‖字的重复再现了原文中stretch一词被拉长的效果,形成感觉上的延伸。四字短语及押韵的使用都符合汉语广告的语体特征。

2.2 分别表义法

如果要把双关语的双层意义完整地表述于译文中,除了在双语偶合的情况下,采用契合译法外,―也可以采取变通手法,将双关语义剥开,拆成两层来表达‖。16

(12)The Unique Spirit of Canada.17

在这则加拿大酒广告中,spirit一词是传神之作,它既可作―烈性酒‖解,又可作―精神‖解。为了保留双重意义,可将双重语义拆开,译为―别具风味的加拿大酒,独特的加拿大精神‖。18

(13)I’m More satisfied.19

(14)Ask for More.20

这是摩尔香烟在广告语中树立的两个双关典范。它们巧妙地使用more一词的双重意义:more是一个副词,表示―更加,更多‖;大写之后,变成了品牌名称。这两则广告使人们轻松记住了商品的品牌,同时又给人留下了一个印象:该产品优于同类产品,能更使消费者满意。译文分别为:―摩尔香烟,我更满意‖;―再来一支,还吸摩尔‖。双关语义被拆成两层,在译文中分别表述,而且四字结构,读来朗朗上口。

值得指出的是,这种翻译方法虽然保留了双关语的双重含义,但原文那种凝炼,诙谐的韵味和一词两义的妙趣却丧失了。

2.3 套译法

有些广告双关语的产生是建立在一定的文化背景之上的。英语语言、文化在汉语中的传播形成了双语翻译之间的桥梁。套译法就是套用英语在汉语中已经沉积下来的固有模式,对英语广告进行翻译。

(15)All is well that ends well.21

这则广告实际是一条英语成语,意思是―结局好,全都好‖。但广告制作者把它用于香烟广告中,ends就具有了双重意义:动词―结束‖和名词―香烟蒂‖。这句香烟广告词可以套用原来成语的翻译模式,译成―烟蒂好,烟就好‖。

(16)Better late than the late.22

这一妙句出自成语―Better late than never‖(晚来总比不来好)。它妙就妙在不仅引用了成语的结构,还利用了late的双关意义,the late这里指the dead。双关的运用使这则交通公益广告产生了强大的震撼力。其译文可套译为―迟到总比丧命好‖。23

(17)We take no pride in prejudice.24

这是《泰晤士报》为自己做广告时用的一句妙语,它源于奥斯汀的一部传世名著―Pride and Prejudice‖,报社援引该书名作广告,以标榜自己不偏不倚,主持公道。这则广告可译为:―对于您的偏见,我们没有傲慢‖。对于知道《傲慢与偏见》这部作品的人来说,这种译法的双关内含便不言自明了。

套译法的长处在于它能传递广告原文的文化内涵,同时又基本能保证原文简洁、凝炼的语言特征,但双关的内涵往往不能得到充分展示,所以译文也就失去了原文风趣、机智、幽默的色彩。

2.4 侧重译法

广告中别具匠心的双关表现手法有时―难以表述于译文中,结果只好牺牲形式意义、谐音寓义及暗含情态‖,25 尤其是有些广告含有多组双关和一语多关,只好采取侧重译法,守住概念意义。

(18)The driver is safer when the road is dry;

The road is safer when the driver is dry.26

这则宣传交通安全的广告运用了dry一词的两重词义(干燥的;没饮酒的)构成双关,对司机很有警示作用。翻译时,dry一词的两重意义在上、下句中只能各取一意:路面干燥,司机安全;司机清醒,道路安全。

(19)When the wind has a bite…and you feel like a bite…then bite on a whole Nut.27

bite一词在这里有多层意思:刺痛;食物;咬。它的多层含义使全营养坚果给饥寒交迫的人们带来的感受跃然而出。这句广告词的翻译可分别把bite一词表达的多重意义表述出来:―当寒风刺骨而您又想吃点儿什么的时候,请嚼嚼全营养坚果‖。

(20)Butlin’s –the right choice.Don’t labour the point, or be conservative in your choice, or liberal with your money.Come to Butlin’s for the real party.Great Party Ahead.29

这是旅游公司利用各政党之间的竞争为自己做的广告。广告中labour,conservative, liberal是三个政党的名字,同时labour the point作―详尽说明‖解,be conservative in your choice意为―在做选择时保守‖,be liberal with money指―大手大脚地花钱‖。Party也是一个双关词,既指―政党‖,又指―聚会‖。广告中几组双关词的运用给人们留下了该旅游公司可以信赖的印象,可以说广告作到了绝妙的地步。但遗憾的是像这样的多重双关译起来难以多全其美,只好采取保留概念意义,牺牲双关的译法:

―布特林旅游公司——您的正确选择。

不要劳烦讲个没完,不要保守,也别犹豫,不要放任自由地乱花钱。

到布特林旅游公司,参加实实在在的聚会吧。

盛大的聚会正等着你!‖

侧重译法是对广告双关的双重乃至多重意义的一种无可奈何的取舍。经过这种取舍后,双关的双重意义在译文中只剩下一层,所以也就没有双关可言了。大多数的广告双关语都适合这种翻译方法,事实上,这种侧重译法正是双关语具有可译性障碍的例证。

2.5 补偿译法

大多数的广告双关语都能通过侧重译法译出。但是有时双关语的一层意义译出后,另外一层意义也很重要,但却无法同时译出,这时,可采用一些补偿手段加以弥补。对于广告来说,这些补偿手段主要指承载广告的媒体,如电视的图像、广播的声音及报纸的版式设计等。

(21)OIC

这是一则眼镜广告,三个简洁的大写字母形状像眼镜,读音为―oh, I see‖。该广告既利用视觉语言来吸引人们的注意力,又利用听觉语言表现此眼镜给视力不佳的顾客带来的欣喜之情。然而,该广告的翻译很难同时兼顾到视觉和听觉,只能从听觉上译为:―哇!我看见了‖。视觉上三个字母形成的眼镜形状却可以通过承载广告的媒体,利用图形这一视觉语言要素来弥补。对于依靠媒体而存在的广告来说,这不失为一种重要的补偿手段。

3.结 语

总之,双关语是广告文体中十分常用的一种修辞手法,它不仅能使广告语言简炼、丰富、诙谐,而且能使广告引人注意,便于记忆。但广告双关语的翻译问题值得进一步研究。以上我们只是讨论了广告双关语翻译的几种模式,在实际翻译中,要真正做到译文和原文最大限度等值,我们不可能在任何时候都只使用某一两种手段,而须从具体情况出发,辩证地选择最合适的手段来传达原文的意义。

英语广告中双关语的运用技巧及翻译

摘 要:双关语是英语广告中一种较为常见的修辞手段。双关语的翻译本身就是一个难点,而广告中双关语的翻译则更加复杂。本文从语音双关、语义双关、语法双关和成语、俗语双关等几方面对双关语的运用技巧作了阐述。并在考虑双关语的双重含义及广告语体风格的基础上,从契合译法、分别表义法、套译法、侧重译法和补偿译法等方面对英语广告双关语的翻译作了初步的探讨。

Abstract: Punning is one of the most common rhetorical devices used in advertisement.This paper is about the techniques of punning and the translation of puns in English advertisements.There are various ways to form puns in advertisements.The translation of puns is difficult because of the double meanings, and the translation of puns in advertisements is even more difficult because one must keep both the double meanings of a pun and the style of the advertisement in mind.Key words: advertising language;pun;translation 引 言

不论是商品广告,还是公益广告,广告的创作都是一门综合性艺术。它集社会学、美学、心理学、市场营销学、声电学、文学、语言学等于一身。这门艺术中的文案写作比其它形式的写作都更需要技巧。它要利用推销原理写出雅俗共赏、生动有趣的文字,要具有特殊的感染力,能在瞬间引起读者注意,刺激其购买欲望,最终促成购买行为。因此广告文案中文学语言运用精当会使得广告语言的内涵与影响远远超出广告本身。双关语这一修辞手段是广告创作常用的技巧。双关,顾名思义,就是在特定的语言环境中用一种语言文字形式表达出一明一暗双重意义,既引人注意,又能引起联想。双关语具有简洁凝练,风趣幽默,新颖别致等修辞效果,能够突出广告的特点,因而在广告中得到大量应用。

1.双关语在广告中的运用

作为一种修辞手段,双关语在广告中比较常用,它存在于语音、词汇、句法等各个语言层面。在广告中,广告制作者为了增加广告的吸引力,挖空心思地追求新的创意,使得双关语在广告中的运用技巧更加纷繁复杂。巧妙的双关能使语言含蓄、幽默、生动、给人以回味和想象的余地。较为常见的有以下几个方面。

1.1.谐音双关

―谐音双关是用拼写相似,发音相同或相近的词构成的‖。广告制作者非常乐于使用谐音双关,因为此类双关具有风趣、幽默、俏皮、滑稽的语言风格,能增强广告的说服力和感染力,从而给消费者留下深刻的印象。

(1)More sun and air for your son and heir.1译文:这里有充足的阳光,清新的空气,一切为了您的子孙后代。

在这则海滨浴场的宣传广告中,制作者巧妙地运用了sun-son, air-heir这两对谐音字,使广告语言不仅和谐悦耳,读来朗朗上口,而且颇风趣、幽默,具有感召力。

(2)Trust us.Over 5000 ears of experience.译文:相信我们吧。历经5000多只耳朵的检验,有着5000多年的经验。

这是一则助听器推销广告。从字面看,它说明了该产品已经接受了众多消费者的考验,但字里行间巧妙地嵌入一对谐音字ears-years,充分暗示了该产品悠久的历史,久经考验的上乘质量。

许多广告都在商品品牌的名称上做文章。品牌名称中的双关语不仅能增加广告的趣味性和幽默感,更重要的是使品牌名称更能吸引人们的注意力,便于记忆,增加宣传攻势力度,以此达到宣传产品的目的。品牌名称中的双关语大多采用谐音的方法。

(3)WEAR-EVER introduces a new concept in glass oven ware: CLEANABILITY.译文:―恒久‖玻璃炉具带给你一个全新的概念:洁净。

这里生产商利用其商标WEAR-EVER一词多义的特点,大力推销其产品:一方面WEAR-EVER为其品牌名称,另一方面该词又另有含义:既为wear forever(体现产品结实耐用),又为wherever(说明到处受人欢迎)。该广告从多角度推销其产品,能够激起顾客的购买欲望,具有一定的劝说作用。

1.2.语义双关

―语义双关是利用词语或句子的多义性在特定环境下形成的双关‖。这种双关在广告中运用得也非常广泛,它与谐音双关有异曲同工之妙。

(4)The label of achievements.Black Label commands more respects.译文:酒是功成名就的标志。黑色标志使您更显尊贵。

语义双关也多见于品牌名称中。这是一则威士忌酒的广告,Label有两层含义,一为―标志‖,一为酒的牌子—Black Label。该广告通过双关手段的运用,使人联想到功成名就时就要饮用该酒;同时,用品牌名称形成双关,又便于消费者对品牌的记忆,从而对商品发生兴趣。

(5)Spoil yourself and not your figure.译文:尽情大吃,不增体重。

这是Weight-Watcher冰淇淋的广告标题,这种冰淇淋是专为节食者生产的。双关不仅存在于商品商标名称中,标题中的spoil也是双关所在。spoil oneself意为―尽兴‖;而spoil one’s figure则意为―破坏了体形‖。这则广告通过一语双关,使减肥者在轻松幽默的语气中很自然地接受该广告,并能使其产生购买欲望。

543(6)A deal with us means a good deal to you.译文:和我们做买卖意味着您做了一笔好买卖。

该句的妙处在于很好地利用了句中deal的三种含义,―做买卖‖、―一笔好买卖‖和―许多‖。a good deal构成一个绝妙的双关。

1.3.语法双关

语法双关是指由于语法方面的问题产生的双关,如省略结构、某词或词组具有两种以上语法功能等。

(7)Which lager can claim to be truly German? This can.(旁边画有一罐啤酒)

译文:哪种大罐啤酒可称得上是地道的德国货?这罐。

这是一则Lager牌淡啤酒的广告。句中的can既可作情态动词,又可作名词(饮料罐)。由于can一语双关,加上Lager的品牌名称双关,以及旁边插图的妙用,使广告产生了一定的幽默效果,给读者以深刻的印象。

无独有偶,可口可乐公司也在这个can字上做文章。

(8)Coke refreshes you like no other can.译文:没有什么能像可乐那样令您神清气爽。

句中can既可理解为名词―罐,听‖,又可看成是情态动词―能‖,全句可理解为Coke refreshes you like no other(can: tin, drink)can(refresh you)。

这则广告诙谐机智,富于文字情趣,能使商品连同这一广告词一起久久印在读者记忆里。

1.4.成语或俗语双关

广告语言特别善于引用一些人们耳熟能详的成语或俗语。这些广告以人们原有的社会、文化知识为基础,以鲜明、独特的语言形式形成双关,既增强了广告的吸引力,又体现了广告语言的艺术性,更使广告具有令人回味的弦外之音。

(9)You’ll go nuts for the nuts you get in Nux.译文:纳克斯坚果让你爱不释口。

从广告的字面意义看,to go nuts是―去买坚果‖,但它同时还是一句成语,意为―疯狂、发疯‖。双关语的运用表明了纳克斯牌坚果对人们的吸引力是无以抗拒的。

(10)A Mars a day keeps you work, rest and play.译文:一天一块玛斯巧克力,让您工作像工作,娱乐像娱乐。

这则广告让人们联想起两条非常熟悉的成语:An apple a day keeps the doctors away和All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy。该广告不仅在语言形式上借用了成语的模式,同时还引用了两条

3121110

成语的内容,让人们从久已熟知的成语中得出一个新的判断:玛斯牌巧克力不仅能使人们健康,而且让人们工作时精力充沛,休息时放松自如。

2.2 分别表义法

如果要把双关语的双层意义完整地表述于译文中,除了在双语偶合的情况下,采用契合译法外,―也可以采取变通手法,将双关语义剥开,拆成两层来表达‖。

(12)The Unique Spirit of Canada.在这则加拿大酒广告中,spirit一词是传神之作,它既可作―烈性酒‖解,又可作―精神‖解。为了保留双重意义,可将双重语义拆开,译为―别具风味的加拿大酒,独特的加拿大精神‖。

(13)I’m More satisfied.(14)Ask for More.这是摩尔香烟在广告语中树立的两个双关典范。它们巧妙地使用more一词的双重意义:more是一个副词,表示―更加,更多‖;大写之后,变成了品牌名称。这两则广告使人们轻松记住了商品的品牌,同时又给人留下了一个印象:该产品优于同类产品,能更使消费者满意。译文分别为:―摩尔香烟,我更满意‖;―再来一支,还吸摩尔‖。双关语义被拆成两层,在译文中分别表述,而且四字结构,读来朗朗上口。

值得指出的是,这种翻译方法虽然保留了双关语的双重含义,但原文那种凝炼,诙谐的韵味和一词两义的妙趣却丧失了。

2.3 套译法

有些广告双关语的产生是建立在一定的文化背景之上的。英语语言、文化在汉语中的传播形成了双语翻译之间的桥梁。套译法就是套用英语在汉语中已经沉积下来的固有模式,对英语广告进行翻译。

(15)All is well that ends well.这则广告实际是一条英语成语,意思是―结局好,全都好‖。但广告制作者把它用于香烟广告中,ends就具有了双重意义:动词―结束‖和名词―香烟蒂‖。这句香烟广告词可以套用原来成语的翻译模式,译成―烟蒂好,烟就好‖。

(16)Better late than the late.这一妙句出自成语―Better late than never‖(晚来总比不来好)。它妙就妙在不仅引用了成语的结构,还利用了late的双关意义,the late这里指the dead。双关的运用使这则交通公益广告产生了强大的震撼力。其译文可套译为―迟到总比丧命好‖。

(17)We take no pride in prejudice.2423222120

17这是《泰晤士报》为自己做广告时用的一句妙语,它源于奥斯汀的一部传世名著―Pride and Prejudice‖,报社援引该书名作广告,以标榜自己不偏不倚,主持公道。这则广告可译为:―对于您的偏见,我们没有傲慢‖。对于知道《傲慢与偏见》这部作品的人来说,这种译法的双关内含便不言自明了。

套译法的长处在于它能传递广告原文的文化内涵,同时又基本能保证原文简洁、凝炼的语言特征,但双关的内涵往往不能得到充分展示,所以译文也就失去了原文风趣、机智、幽默的色彩。

2.4 侧重译法

广告中别具匠心的双关表现手法有时―难以表述于译文中,结果只好牺牲形式意义、谐音寓义及暗含情态‖,尤其是有些广告含有多组双关和一语多关,只好采取侧重译法,守住概念意义。

(18)The driver is safer when the road is dry;The road is safer when the driver is dry.这则宣传交通安全的广告运用了dry一词的两重词义(干燥的;没饮酒的)构成双关,对司机很有警示作用。翻译时,dry一词的两重意义在上、下句中只能各取一意:路面干燥,司机安全;司机清醒,道路安全。

(19)When the wind has a bite…and you feel like a bite…then bite on a whole Nut.27

262

5bite一词在这里有多层意思:刺痛;食物;咬。它的多层含义使全营养坚果给饥寒交迫的人们带来的感受跃然而出。这句广告词的翻译可分别把bite一词表达的多重意义表述出来:―当寒风刺骨而您又想吃点儿什么的时候,请嚼嚼全营养坚果‖。

(20)Butlin’s –the right choice.Don’t labour the point, or be conservative in your choice, or liberal with your money.Come to Butlin’s for the real party.Great Party Ahead.这是旅游公司利用各政党之间的竞争为自己做的广告。广告中labour,conservative, liberal是三个政党的名字,同时labour the point作―详尽说明‖解,be conservative in your choice意为―在做选择时保守‖,be liberal with money指―大手大脚地花钱‖。Party也是一个双关词,既指―政党‖,又指―聚会‖。广告中几组双关词的运用给人们留下了该旅游公司可以信赖的印象,可以说广告作到了绝妙的地步。但遗憾的是像这样的多重双关译起来难以多全其美,只好采取保留概念意义,牺牲双关的译法:

―布特林旅游公司——您的正确选择。

不要劳烦讲个没完,不要保守,也别犹豫,不要放任自由地乱花钱。29到布特林旅游公司,参加实实在在的聚会吧。

盛大的聚会正等着你!‖

侧重译法是对广告双关的双重乃至多重意义的一种无可奈何的取舍。经过这种取舍后,双关的双重意义在译文中只剩下一层,所以也就没有双关可言了。大多数的广告双关语都适合这种翻译方法,事实上,这种侧重译法正是双关语具有可译性障碍的例证。

2.5 补偿译法

大多数的广告双关语都能通过侧重译法译出。但是有时双关语的一层意义译出后,另外一层意义也很重要,但却无法同时译出,这时,可采用一些补偿手段加以弥补。对于广告来说,这些补偿手段主要指承载广告的媒体,如电视的图像、广播的声音及报纸的版式设计等。

(21)OIC

这是一则眼镜广告,三个简洁的大写字母形状像眼镜,读音为―oh, I see‖。该广告既利用视觉语言来吸引人们的注意力,又利用听觉语言表现此眼镜给视力不佳的顾客带来的欣喜之情。然而,该广告的翻译很难同时兼顾到视觉和听觉,只能从听觉上译为:―哇!我看见了‖。视觉上三个字母形成的眼镜形状却可以通过承载广告的媒体,利用图形这一视觉语言要素来弥补。对于依靠媒体而存在的广告来说,这不失为一种重要的补偿手段。

3.结 语

总之,双关语是广告文体中十分常用的一种修辞手法,它不仅能使广告语言简炼、丰富、诙谐,而且能使广告引人注意,便于记忆。但广告双关语的翻译问题值得进一步研究。以上我们只是讨论了广告双关语翻译的几种模式,在实际翻译中,要真正做到译文和原文最大限度等值,我们不可能在任何时候都只使用某一两种手段,而须从具体情况出发,辩证地选择最合适的手段来传达原文的意义。
