TRY Explanation: 各种语法成分的相互作用。 译这种比喻， 还是回归到作者的本义为好。把springs and impulses的字面意思译出， 反倒难于理解。 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs 32 mins (2005-02-17 01:53:53 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 这句话是说她把语言理解得太机械了， 抱怨她对语言得使用不灵活， 潜词造句太死板。要能找到合适的比喻， springs and impulses还是译出较好。 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 22 hrs 34 mins (2005-02-17 18:56:01 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- springs, 这里只能指表的发条， springs and impulses of the language 是把语言比喻为手表。 在中文里不能这样比喻， 而英语是完全可以的， 现在的问题是用恰当的表达方式把作者的意思说明白。 古尔德小姐把语言理解得过于机械， 在她看来， 语言就像手表的发条及其驱动力的运作方式一样严谨。 |
