习语的范围
成语: “人们长期以来习用的、形式简洁而意思精辟的、定性的词组或短句。汉语成语大多由四个字组成。”<现汉> （陈文伯）
set phrases; idioms
2. 惯用语：idioms
3. 俗语: “通俗流行之语”或“约定俗成广泛通行之语” sayings
4. 谚语: “在群众中间流传的固定语句,用简单通俗的话反映出深刻的道理。” <现汉> proverbs 歇后语：由前后两部分构成，前一部分多为比喻，后一部分说明喻义。two-part allegorical sayings 格言警句: maxim
习语的特点
习语集中反映一个民族或文化的特色
习语是各种修辞手段的集中表现
习语是语言中独立的、不规则的、固定的成分。
第一、二两点对译者的要求是什么？
第三点对译者的要求是什么？
第一、二两点要求译者尽量保持原文的民族形式和风格，因此直译（不是死译和硬译）往往是必要的。
第三点要求译者不要把习语当作普通语句来处理，须避免字字对译。
习语翻译的指导思想
“直译基础上的意译”
陆殿扬：“Translate literally, if possible, or, appeal to free translation.” (如果可能，就直译；否则就意译）
奈达：功能对等（Functional Equivalence: not only the equivalent content of message, but, in so far as possible, an equivalence of the form);
改变形式的五个条件
直译会导致意义上的错误时；
引入外来语形成语义空白（Semantic Zero），读者有可能自己填入错误的意义时；
形式对等引起严重的意义晦涩时；
形式对等引起作者原意所没有的歧义时；
形式对等违反译入语的语法或文体规范时。
习语汉译英的原则
形象性原则
简练性原则
不可滥用字面意义直译法
尽量少用意译法和直译加注法
习语翻译的基本方法
1. 直译法：在不违背译文语言规范以及不引起译文读者错误理解的情况下，在译文中保留原文成语的形象、修辞手段和民族特色
2. 同义习语借用法: 有些习语在内容形式和色彩上都符合, 可借用
3. 意译法: 无法直译, 也无法借用时, 则意译
4. 直译兼意译:部分直译,部分意译,直意参半法
5. 省略法: 四字重叠词组因追求音韵美,前后两部分意义相同或相近时, 只需译出一部分或只译其意义, 可以不考虑重叠的部分。
6. 增添法：为了更清楚地表达原意，有时要结合上下文，在译文中增添一些说明。
7. 还原法：有些习语源于外语，翻译时可使之还原。
8. 直译加注法：有些习语包含历史典故，含有中国文化色彩，如果不作一番解释，英语读者将很难理解其确切含义。
9. 粗俗语回避法：对于粗俗语，通常采用回避的方法，即借用英语同义习语或意译等方法来处理。

死译：His eyebrows are flying and his countenance is dancing

成语的英文翻译 成语的英文翻译 不动声色 拼音： bùdòngshēngsè 解释： 声：言谈；色：脸色。在紧急情况下，说话、神态仍跟平时一样没有变化。形容非常镇静。 出处： 宋·欧阳修《相州昼锦堂记》：“垂绅正笏，不动声色，而措天下于泰山之安。” 翻译： 不动声色指的是说话、神态都保持镇定，没有变化。 保持可以用keep，maintain等表示，镇定可以是composure，组合起来就是keep/maintainone’scomposure 要不动声色，不要让对方看到任何你生气或是不安的迹象。Don'tshowanysignsofangerorupset.Youmustkeepyourcomposure. 还有一个词组也表示不动声色：notturnahair。 notturnahair:tonotshowanyemotionwhenyouaretoldsomethingb adorwhensomethingbadhappens 连一根头发丝都没有动，是不是十分镇定呢？
我还期待着他听到这笔开销时大惊失色，不料他却不动声色。Iwasexpectinghimtobehorrifiedwhenheheardthecostbuthedidn'tt urnahair. 不负众望 拼音： bùfùzhòngwàng 解释： 负：辜负；众：众人；望：期望。不辜负大家的.期望。 出处：《诗经·大雅·下武》：“永言配命，成王之孚。”（这句话是说周成王顺应天命，令众人信服。） 翻译： liveuptoone’sexpectation liveupto表示“不辜负”，不辜负期望（expectation）也就等于不负众望。 我努力活出自己的样子，不辜负众望。Itriedtoliveuptomyideallifeandpeople’sexpectation. 如果是辜负了众望，即不孚众望呢？又该如何翻译？ 只要在liveupto前面加上fail就可以了。 fail是动词，意思是失败，failtodosomething的意思是“未能做成某事”。 因此，不孚众望可以翻译成： failtoliveuptoone’sexpectation.
