纵观历史,中国人民自豪的是“龙”,因为在传统的意义上“龙”象征着好运和权威。然而,在西方,人们认为,“龙”是罪恶的象征和怪物。

从这,我们可以看到中国龙和外国龙是两个完全不同的生物。然而,无论在英汉翻译和汉英翻译中,我们都把它们化为等号。这种翻译忽略了中国和西方文化之间的差异,不负责的翻译和文化交流造成不必要的误解。那么,如何翻译汉字“龙”成为一个非常严重和紧迫的问题,需要完全的解读。本文旨在从中国“龙”文化之间和西方龙的文化的差异上分析,并从翻译学上来确定“龙”的英语翻译。

 Abstract：摘要
 
Throughout history, Chinese people are proud of ‘long’, because in traditional significance, ’long’ has been symbolizing good luck and authority. Nevertheless, in the West, people believe that ‘dragon’ is a symbol of evil and monster.
 
From this, we can see that, ‘long’ and dragon are two entirely different creatures.  However, no matter in the English-Chinese translation or Chinese-English translation, we translate them into each other. This sort of translation ignores the differences between Chinese and Western cultures, is not responsible in the customary translation and causes the unnecessary misunderstandings in cultural exchange.So, how to translate Chinese character ‘long’ becomes a very serious and urgent problem that needs to be recovered.This article is intended from the differences between the Chinese ‘long’ culture and Western dragon culture, and from what should be focus attention in the translation to determine the English translation of ‘long’.

All sorts of these have produced between country and country that leads to the inevitable cultural misunderstandings. To本论文由英语论文网提供整理，提供论文代写，英语论文代写，代写论文，代写英语论文，代写留学生论文，代写英文论文，留学生论文代写相关核心关键词搜索。
