人名,地名的英译
英语人名,地名,可以查找工具书,比如英汉辞典等等
中级口译的人名地名的翻译相对来说是比较简单的,我们翻译人名,地名必须遵循"音译"的原则.必须注意的是:
1) 用音译,慎用意译
如:人名Wall, Sleep,译成:"沃尔"与"斯利普",不可译成"墙"与"睡".地名China同样不可译成"陶瓷",这也是众所周知的事了
2) 人名中姓和名之间,用圆点间隔,如John Thomas Smith "约翰.托马斯.史密斯".
3) 要熟记一些常用的译名
比如:Franklin Roosevelt  罗斯福    Winston Churchill  邱吉尔
Napoleon          拿破仑            Aristotle          亚里士多德
Socrates          苏格拉底        New York          纽约
New Orleans        新奥尔良        Los Angeles        洛杉矶
Detroit            底特律        Chicago          芝加哥
平时就多看看有关资料,也不一定要全背出,只是心里要留个底儿,这样就不会闹笑话了词在不同语境的翻译技巧在我们的翻译教程之中第12页,就有关于see在不同语境情况之下的不同翻译,这说明要准
确的译出文章中关键词的意思,首先要注意语境的把握和上下文的搭配关系

THE HUMMING-BIRD
Of all animated being this is the most elegant in form and the most brillian
t in colors. The stones and metals polished by our arts are not comparable to this jewel of Nature. Her masterpiece is this little humming-bird , and upon it she has heaped all the gifts which the other birds may only share. Lightness, rapidity , nimbleness , grace and rich apparel all belong to this little favorite, The emerald , the ruby , and the topaz gleam upon it dress. It never soils them with the dust of earth , and in its aerial life scarcely touches the turf an instant . Always in the air , flying from flower to flower, it has their freshness as well as their brightness. It lives upon their nectar , and dwells only in the climates where they perennially bloom.
