摘要：本文以母语不同的译者所译的英文文本作为例证,并根据语言学的一些相关研究成果,发现汉语为母语的英译者,其英译文本的语用取向往往着重事态的过程,而英语为母语的英译者,因英译文本正是他们的母语文本,其语用取向则着重行为的结果。此外,我们还对各种汉译英的文本作了进一步的检验,证实了重结果是操英语人士习惯的语用特点。本文还根据英语语用重结果的特点推导出一条汉-英翻译原则:译者须设定译文文本的读者对象是操英语的本族人,要在译文文本中体现出重结果的语用取向,为此,译文效果必须讲究客观、求实。
With reference to the revised cases of Chinese translators＇ works made by Pinkham in his book The Translator＇ s Guide to Chinglish, this paper deduce a hypothesis that English is a result-oriented language in use while Chinese a process-oriented one. This idea has been proved to be true in comparison between the Yangs＇ and Hawkes＇ translated texts of the Chinese classic Hong Lou Meng, and it is also ＇affirmed by some relevant studies of linguists. This paper argues that C-to-E translators, bearing in mind that the readers of their works are native English, should accordingly adopt the result-oriented approach in their rendering efforts, and that our research has value for C-to-E translation practice.
