2014年6月英語六級翻譯真題及參考譯文:土豪與大媽(文都教育版2)
【六級翻譯真題原文】
中文熱詞通常反映社會變化和文化,有些在外國媒體上愈來愈流行。例如,土豪和大媽都是老詞,但已獲取了新的意義。
土豪以前指欺壓佃戶和仆人的鄉(xiāng)村地主,現(xiàn)在用于指花錢如流水或喜歡炫耀財富的人, 也就是說,土豪有錢,但是沒有品位。大媽是對中年婦女的稱呼,但是現(xiàn)在特指不久前金價大跌時大量購買黃金的中國婦女。
土豪和大媽可能會被收入新版的牛津(OXford)英語詞典,至今約有120中文加進了牛津英語詞典,成了英語語言的一部分。
【文都教育參考譯文】
The Chinese hot words usually reflect the social and cultural change, some of them are increasingly popular with the foreign media. For instance, although the Tuhao and Dama are old words, they have acquired new meaning.
Tuhao (local tyrants) referred to the village landlords who oppressed the peasants and servants in the old days, but now it is used to refer to the rich who spends money like water or likes to showing off. That is to say, the local tyrants have wealth but no taste. Dama (aunt) is a calling to middle-aged women, but now it especially refers to the Chinese women who buy large amount of gold when gold tumbled recently.
These two words are likely to be include in the new OXford English Dictionary. Until now, about 120 Chinese word have added in the OXford English Dictionary, becoming a part of the English language.
