Preface
Translation of public signs
plays an important role in Sino-foreign cultural exchange and economic
cooperation. But at present the quality of Chinese-English translation hereafter
abbreviated to C-E translation of public signs in China is still far from
satisfaction. Linguistic errors, pragmatic failure and cultural mistranslation
are common problems in current C-E translation of public signs.
Text types are closely
related to language functions. Language functions can decide text types.
According to text typology, public signs are classified into informative and
vocative texts which perform such functions as directing, reminding, warning,
informing, persuading and propagating. Peter Newmark put forward communicative
translation strategy to translate informative and vocative texts. The
communicative translation lays emphasis on the readability of the target text
and the reception of the target readers, the fluency, idiomaticness, brevity
and comprehensibility of the target language. It stresses that the target text
should be able to produce functionally the same effect on the target readers as
the original on the readers. Translation variation theory, put forward by
professor Huang Zhonglian, is a suitable and feasible theory to guide the C-E
translation of public signs, which aims at representing contents and messages
of the original by using appropriate adaptations such as addition, deletion,
edition, narration, condensation, combination and rewriting to meet the specific
needs of the specific readers under specific circumstances.
Based on the translation
variation theory, this book analyses the feasibility and necessity of applying translation
variation in C-E translation of public signs and explores the application of
some translation variation methods in translating public signs so that the
functions and skopos of C-E translation of public signs can be realized.
This book is composed of six
parts. Chapter 1 briefs the background, purpose and significance, methodology
of this study as well as the structure of the book. Chapter 2 is a text
analysis of public signs, which presents definition, classification, characteristics,
functions, and text types of public signs. It also makes a comparison of
translation strategies for translation of public signs and those for translation
of other text types. Chapter 3 mainly analyses the mistranslation in C-E
translation of public signs and its cause. Chapter 4 and Chapter 5 are the key
parts of this book. Chapter 4 first gives a brief overview and comment on translation
variation and translation variation theory and then discusses the feasibility
and necessity of applying translation variation in C-E translation of public
signs. Chapter 5 explores the methods of applying translation variation to
translate public signs, such as amplification, omission, adaptation, imitation
and creation, so that the information and intention of the original can be
conveyed exactly to the target readers. The final part comes to the conclusion
in which findings, limitations and suggestions for further research are
presented.
It is hoped that this book
will provide some useful guidance for the readers to better understand the
functions and text types of public signs and learn how to apply translation
variation in their own translation practice and thus make a valuable contribution
to the standardization of C-E translation of public signs.
Due to festinate time,
limited knowledge and experience of the author, some mistakes and errors in
this book are unavoidable. Feedbacks, comments and suggestions from all readers
of this book are warmly welcome so that corrections can be made.
