Quality Goods News or Fine Works News Explanation: My opinion. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-04 19:38:55 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- \"导报\" is always translated into \"News\" here in Canada. We have two or three \"导报\" here. For instance, <<中华导报>>(The Canada China News) is widely read by us.(a quarter each) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-04 19:41:55 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- As for \"精品购物导报\", I think I missed the word \"购物\" above. Thus, the correct version for it is \"Quality Goods Purchase News\" or \" Fine Works Purchase News\". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-04 20:42:40 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Actually, \"指南\" or \"向导\" is the best version for \"Guide\", while \"Mews\" is the best interpretation for \"导报\". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-04 21:03:47 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- To the best of my memory, the standard version for quite a few\"导报\" in China is \"Herald\", eg. <<中国高新技术产业导报>> is translated into \"China High-Tech Industry Herald\". Please check to see the following link for more details: http://www.chinahightech.com/chinahightech/default.asp Conclusively speaking, both \"News\" and \"Herald\" are acceptable, and certainly \"Herald\" is more formal than \"News\". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-04 21:17:47 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- \"精品\" is a vogue word which is not even included in the famous<<现代汉语词典>>(商务印书馆出版), however, it does appear in the authoritative <<汉英辞典>>(外语教学与研究出版社出版), which, according to the rigorous linguists, mean:1) fine works (of art); 2)quality goods; articles of fine quality. Thus, when talking about \"精品\", it is \"quality\" that should be given priority. Then comes the word \"elaboration\", perhaps. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-04 21:32:00 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Oh, I missed an \"s\" after \"mean\" above. |
