Chapter 446

Yang Guo and Chen Zongdai listed the core ten kinds of variant translation in his current summarized variant translation theory: extraction, compilation, translation, reduction, review, commentary, revision, interpretation, translation and reference. Each article is divided into several parts to give detailed examples to the dean.

Unprepared, completely out of manuscript, which only Yang Guo can achieve this effect, because all the knowledge is stuffed into his mind. With the explanation with Chen Zongdai, Yang Guo's ideas become clearer and clearer, and you can pick up any example at your fingertips and no longer search hard.

But in this way, Yang Guo spoke for a very long time alone. In addition, Chen Zongdai also raised doubts from time to time. Yang Guo's discussion with the teacher lasted for a whole day.

Even for lunch, Chen Zongdai didn't let Yang Guo leave the office. Or the teacher's mother worked hard to cook the food and sent it over. Qi Qi and Jin Jin were bored. Fortunately, after the teacher's mother came, she took them around the campus, leaving two men who were obsessed with learning to quarrel in the office.

Yes, quarrel!

Although Chen Zongdai is not stubborn, he has been immersed in functional translation theory for so many years, and is deeply influenced by traditional translation thoughts. He does not agree with Yang Guo's translation variation theory.

Often, young and old people fight red in the face. Yang Guo is not soft because he is sitting opposite his teacher. As long as he thinks he is right and has sufficient reasons, he will fight.

"Do you understand that not every translator can achieve your level!" In the end, Chen Zongdai was forced to rush, and threw out a killer mace, saying, "if everyone can be flexible and let readers see it with conviction, why have we insisted on the standard of faithfulness, expressiveness and elegance for more than 100 years?"

"This shows that your theory is unworkable!" Chen Zongdai patted the table and said.

Yang Guo smiled confidently and said, "teacher, I don't agree with you! Just because not everyone can do it doesn't mean that no one can do it, and a translation theory that can't be popularized doesn't mean that it's not a feasible theory!"

"I've really practiced it. You can see from the examples I gave you that variant translation can bring different translation ideas to translators, and can make some types of translation - such as advertising language translation, our classical Chinese Poetry Translation - reach a far more brilliant level than the conventional translation! In fact, in the past, many translations translated by our translator predecessor Lin Shu have the shadow of variant translation, which is not recognized by the translation industry, but We cannot deny that those translations are of unique value to our Chinese culture. "

"Lin Shu is different. His talent can be a great writer. He is not a translator, but at most a rewriter!" Chen Zongdai shook his head and said.

"But why can't we cultivate more talents like Lin Shu?" Yang Guo asked, "is our school just set up to cultivate popular talents? Our country's culture can't go out because it's so unique that foreigners can't understand it with ordinary translation methods. We need more talents like Lin Shu to carry forward our traditional culture!"

Yang Guo's words made Chen Zongdai deep in thought, but before Yang Guo finished speaking, he continued: "teacher, I know my theory is only an embryonic form, and many places are not considered thoroughly, but I think this may be a way for us to cultivate senior translation talents!"

He smiled and said, "now machine translation is becoming more and more advanced. Brother Gu's translation can only make a few errors throughout the whole article. Change it. This will be another perfect translation. Of course, I exaggerate this perfection."

"But if you think about the future? Machine translation will become more and more powerful in the future. The technical text translation that most of our ordinary translators rely on for a living and the stuttering interpretation of ordinary interpreters may be replaced by machine translation!" Yang Guo predicted without reservation.

"If we don't find a way out, there will be no translation major in the future!" Yang Guo shook his head and said.

"You are alarmist!" Chen Zongdai disagreed with Yang Guo's last sentence. He retorted, "can cold machines turn over technical texts and human thoughts? As long as they exist for one day, translation will never quit the stage!"

"Yes!" Yang Guo nodded and said, "teacher, your point of view is exactly what I want to say. But, do you see what kind of careers we undergraduate students majoring in language are engaged in now after graduation? Although the trend of world integration makes the translation market continue to grow, how many of our students are qualified to do translation?"

Yang Guo's question made Chen Zongdai speechless. Yang Guo continued, "it's really impossible to make every student reach the level of professional translation, which is too difficult, but we can train students who hope and can reach this level into translation talents!"

"I think maybe my translation theory is a breakthrough." Yang Guo laughed and said, "maybe after several years of development, it can form a unique talent training mechanism, which may be an effective process for our students to purposefully learn the knowledge they need, and then display their creative ability to become a translator like Lin Shu?"

Chen Zongdai said angrily and funny, "then why don't you say a translation like you?"

Yang Guo scratched his head and said with a embarrassed giggle, "teacher, my level is still very low. I still need to continue to work hard, continue to work hard."

"When you put forward this theory, you were originally rebellious." Chen Zongdai said with some worry, "I just discussed with you slowly. If others see it, they may want to attack and resist you."

Yang Guo smiled casually and said, "teacher, don't worry. Which new theory hasn't been questioned? I'm not short of money and work now. What's the use of their boycott?"

"I forgot that your boy is a millionaire. If he can't eat translation, he can do something else." Chen Zongdai rolled his eyes and said, "don't worry, teacher, I'm not old enough to be stubborn. Your idea is very good. Dongshan University will fully support your research. Maybe it's like what I told you, new development, new opportunities."

Although Chen Zongdai refuted Yang Guo all day, Yang Guo was very moved by his words of support.
