英语中的常用交际套语.docx

1、英语中的常用交际套语英语中的常用交际套语不同文化有着不同的语言习惯，口译译员在处理交际套语时尤其需要注意符合习惯用法，方才显的自然得体、彬彬有礼，否则让人听起来就会显得生硬粗鲁，甚至产生误解和不快。下面就举一些典型套语的译法：1，参观或者会谈等场合，常听见中方的人说“请多提宝贵意见。”若对西方人直译为：“Please give us your valuable comments.”，问题就来了，他们会认为你在暗示他们：你的意见应该是valuable 的，不宝贵的意见请免开尊口。正确的译法是：“Please give us your comments.”或“We welcome your com

2、ments.2，“怎么样，今天就谈到这里吧？”生硬、突然的说法：Well，shall we stop here for today？地道的习惯用语：Thank you forShall we call it a day？3，“今天的菜不好，请多多包涵。” 在英语国家的人看来，这种自谦客套的说法反而显得太牵强附会，况且请客总希望客人吃的好，否则，既然菜不好，为什么还拿来请客？故不宜直译为：Pardon me for the poor foods today.若用餐开始讲这句话，英语应说：Bon appetite，或者Enjoy yourself.若用餐完毕讲这句话，应该说：Hope youve

3、enjoyed yourself.这样才与此情景相吻合。4，“这是区区薄礼，不成敬意”。这是我们中国人为了表示礼貌客气的一句客套话，有时礼品并非“薄礼”也这么说；而英美人的思维习惯却是：这是专门为你准备的礼品，希望你喜欢。所以这句不妨这样说：This is a gift for your memory. Hope you like it.5，“你每月挣多少钱？”这恐怕是令人最忌讳的私人问题了，太敏感了，最好别问。若非要表达这个意思，应该把问题变为间接问题，不针对个人。若对方是销售经理，可以说：About how much dose a sale manager make a year？在口译当

4、中，除了要注意这些习惯差异以外，英语也有着不能单凭字面意思去理解的丰富的口语习惯词汇。比如：“This evening，if you have time，we can go to the movie together .” “Well，I will play it by ear！”6、“ play it by ear”直译为“用耳朵来弹奏”？当然不是！这里的“play it by ear”英文原意是：to decide sth. at the moment you need to and not before 因而这里意思可理解为：“今晚如果有空，你可以和我们一块去看电影。”“到时候再说吧！”
