Shakespeare in Love

文:渐行渐远的记忆

很多年以后,依稀记得那个冬天的一个下午,太阳十分慵懒,一如这个以慢节奏而著称的城市。祥和、静寂的气氛夹杂着几分淡淡的哀伤,窗外细枊无力地摇曳着。

世界上最可怕的是什么?梦想的破灭?青春的逝去?生命的终结……Shakespeare撕下一张又一张的稿纸,那支脏兮兮的鹅毛笔时而游曳于白纸上,时而停顿在半空……导演把镜头对准了Shakespeare紧锁的眉头和一张张被丢弃的废纸……何谓灵感?灵感无非是一种触动。当这位伦敦剧场界的新星失去其写作的灵感,无法再次触动尘封的心灵,这一切远比死亡来得可怕。

并不华丽的场景却真实地再现16世纪的伦敦闹市,跟随着主人翁的步伐,我们来到了剧场,这里正在招聘演员,男女主角的第一次见面就在这里发生。中国有句古话:冥冥之中,定有天意。Viola正是那位Shakespeare所需的能激发其灵感的女神,年轻的Shakespeare敏锐的感觉让他发现了 Viola是个漂亮的女孩,接着如同那些爱情小说里描写的一样,他们坠入了爱河。这时候Shakespeare的灵感如泉涌,并将他们的爱情付诸成文字, Viola成为他生命中的Juliet,而他这个Romeo也找到生存的意义。

如同众多的爱情悲剧小说里的情形一样,他们的爱情被残酷的现实所阻挠:Viola必须嫁给Wisher爵士,这是Victoria女王所钦定的,并且 Shakespeare早已成婚。在一场身分混淆、错综复杂的乌龙闹剧中,大吃干醋的未婚夫和未婚妻的情人决斗,私定终身的情侣偷偷调情,而年轻的 Shakespeare不但得为他的剧本想出完美的结局,也得为他自己的爱情找到快乐的结局。

曾为《钢琴师》、《跳出我天地》等欧洲名片谱写过电影配乐的英国新进作曲者Stephen Warbeck以其擅长的古典剧作笔法,既吸取了古典配乐上的欢快与幽默,又努力向时尚的剧情烘托靠拢。本片的配乐一直都维持了一股宫廷电影应有的典雅与高贵。音乐一路描绘着剧中人物的情感变化。影片从昂扬的揭开序曲,一路细腻且生动地描绘着剧中人物的喜怒哀乐,到及的深沉情绪中,紧密交织的古典交响曲式,慢板的钢琴曲及女高音Catherine Bott跨刀吟唱无一不紧扣人心。

人生如戏,还是戏如人生?我想Shakespeare在这一刻肯定是忘形了,所以他才演的这么投入,所以他的台词才会这么动人。

但是生活不是戏剧,生活同样也不是电影!有人说:武侠小说是成年人的童话。其实电影又何尝不是?就如电影里的Shakespeare,在舞台上他对着心爱的女人,当着众人的面,可以毫无顾忌地诉说着一切,而在现实生活中,世俗的差距就象一道鸿沟,两个相爱的人始终只能遥遥相望。

爱是需要表达的,爱也是需要争取的。看完电影,我想想也好笑:是不是我们永远在别人的故事里,流着自己的泪?

Layla Kaylif - Shakespeare In Love

Hes fought and hes fallen

Hes on his knees before hes on his feet

A sinister romantic

Oh, hes about to be and shes about to see

Teachin torches to burn bright

Shes hanging on the cheek of night

A snowy dove trooping with crows

He never saw true beauty till tonight

CHORUS:

Shell take him to the brink of deliverance

Show him that much

Oh, dont you know it

Oh, dont you know it

So he falls in love to feel that hes falling

Shell let him know his heart

Oh, dont you know it

Oh, dont you know it

Thats Shakespeare in love

Hes fought and hes fallen

Hes on his knees before hes on his feet

A glittery romantic

Oh, hes about to be and shes about to see

His bountys boundless like the sea

His love is endless, just as deep

The more he gives the more he has

`Cause both of them are truly infinite

CHORUS:

Shell take him to the brink of deliverance

Show him that much

Oh, dont you know it

Oh, dont you know it

So he falls in love to feel that hes falling

Shell let him know his heart

Oh, dont you know it

Oh, dont you know it

Thats Shakespeare in love

Thats Shakespeare in love

A sinister romantic

Hes on his knees before hes on his feet

CHORUS:

Shell take him to the brink of deliverance

Show him that much

Oh, dont you know it

Oh, dont you know it

So he falls in love to feel that hes falling

Shell let him know his heart

Oh, dont you know it

Oh, dont you know it

Thats Shakespeare in love

Thats Shakespeare in love

The Value of Reading Books

People often say that gold and silver are the most valuable things in the world.ButI don‘t think so. In my opinion, to read books is more valuable than anything else.

The old saying "To open a book is always helpful" clearly tells us how good it is to read a book.

Books are our friends. They introduce us different kinds of knowledge. They lead us down the road to success.

Books are our teachers. They teach us troth, science, literature, and philosophy of life. Besides, they increase our knowledge, enlarge our experience,strengthen our character and do many other things which we can not do without them.

Books tell us what is good and what is evil. And only books can tell the good from the bad.

Therefore to read more books is the best policy for our young students.

读书价值

人们常说金子和银子是世界上最有价值的东西,但我不这样认为。在我看来,读书比任何其他事情更有价值。

“开卷有益”清楚地告诉了我们读书有多好。

书是我们的朋友。它们向我们介绍不同种类的知识,它指导我们沿着成功之路前行。

书是我们的老师。它们教我们真理、科学、文学和生活的哲理,同时它们增加了我们的知识,扩大了我们的视野,增强了我们的个性,使我们还做了在没有书的情况下绝不可能完成的其他事情。

书能让我们明辨是非,并且只有书才能让我们吸取反面教训。

因此,读更多的书是我们青少年学生的明智之举。

Dear Mercy,

亲爱的梅斯,

How is everything going! Last time you said you are anxious now because you

find it hard to learn English well. Don’t worry. I think you have to improve

your English step by step. And I will right behind you. In my view, you should

develop you interest on English first. According to my experience, I think

watching English movie, listen to some wonderful English songs and talk in

English on the Internet would be helpful. Secondly, you have to prepare lessons

before class that will help you understand what the teacher says in the class. I

know you feel bored in the class, but you have force yourself to be

concentrated. A few days later you will feel it a little easy to learn English.

The left steps I will tell next time. By the way, we have not seen each other

since your family move to Hunan a year ago. Have you ever thought about going

back to visit me and learn English together in the coming Summer vacation.

Looking forward to your reply.

过得可好。上次你说你现在很焦虑因为你觉得很难学好英语。别担心。我觉得要提高英语你得一步步来。我会帮你的。在我看来,首先应该要培养你对英语的兴趣。根据我的经验,我认为看英文电影,听美妙的英文歌曲以及在互联网上与他人用英语交流会有很大的帮助。其次,你要预习,这样可以让你理解老师在课堂上说的东西。我知道你觉得上英语课很无聊,但你必须强迫自己聚精会神的听。一段时间后,你会感觉到学习英语变得容易些了。剩下的步骤下一次我会告诉你的。顺便提一下,自从一年前你们家搬到湖南后我们就没见过面。你有没有想过暑假的时候回来看看我,我们可以一起学习英语。期待你的回复。

Best wishes,

Li

Dear Miss Zhu,

亲爱的周老师

How time flies! It has been a few years since I left high school, but I still remember you in my heart, because you’re the best teacher in my mind. It’s not only because you taught me knowledge, but also you taught me how to study. I have really benefitted a lot from you. So I would like to express my great thanks to you, and share my life in college with you.

时间飞逝!我高中毕业已经几年了,但我仍然把你记在我的心里,因为你是我心目中最好的老师。这不仅是因为你教与我知识,而且你还教我如何学习。从你身上我真的获益匪浅。所以我想向你表达我的感谢,并与你分享我的大学生活。

Now I’m studying in Hunan First Normal College, which is Chairman Mao’s former school. I major in English, because I find it so fun and interesting. As far as I’m concerned, our English Department is the best department in our college. The teachers in our department are knowledgeable, experienced, and warm-hearted. And my classmates are nice, friendly and helpful. Thus, I have a good atmosphere to study. When I have difficulties in study, I always ask my teachers for help or discuss with my classmates. Through their help, I have made great progress in my English study.

我现在在湖南第一师范学校学习,这是主席之前呆过的学校。我的专业是英语,因为我觉得它很有趣。我觉得我们英语系是我校最好的学部。我们系的老师知识渊博,经验丰富,热心肠。我的同学们也很和蔼,友好,乐于助人。因此,我拥有一个很好的学习氛围。当我在学习上遇到困难时,我总是向我的老师寻求帮助或与同学讨论。在他们的帮助下,我在英语学习上取得了很大的进步。

College life is much different from high school life. In college, we should acquire knowledge as well as improve our integrated abilities. There are a lot of English classes for us to learn, such as Basic English, Oral English, Listening, Reading, Writing, Translation, Grammar, English Literature, and so on. I enjoy these classes very much. Except English, we have many other subjects to learn. Life seems so busy here but it’s so fruitful for me.

大学生活与高中生活有很大的不同。在大学,我们要获取知识也要提高我们的综合能力。我们要上很多的英语课,比如,基础英语,英语口语,听力阅读,写作,翻译,语法,英语文学等。我非常喜欢这些课。除英语外,我们还要学习很多其他科目。在这里生活是如此的忙碌,但这对我来说是如此丰硕的收获。

After class, I usually go to the English Corner. There I can practice my oral English by talking with foreigners or chatting with my schoolmates. Now, I’m able to communicate with foreigners well. Sometimes I also take part in some social activities. For instance, last weekend I attended an interesting play. As it was my first performance, I felt a little nervous at the beginning. But when I appeared on the stage, I made every audience laugh happily. I was so proud of myself at that moment, because this was my first achievement.

下课后,我经常去英语角。在那里我可以通过与外国人或我的同学聊天来练习我的英语口语。现在我可以很好的和外国人交流了。有时候我也可以参加一些社交活动。例如,上周我参加了一个有趣的表演。因为是我第一次表演,所以一开始的时候我觉得有点紧张。但当我出现在舞台上时,我让每一个观众都开心的笑了。在那一刻,我为我自己感到骄傲,因为这是我的第一个收获。

What about your present life? I hope to hear from you soon.

你目前生活怎么样呢?希望很快能收到你的回

At last, I hope everything goes well with you. Please give my best regards to your family.

最后,我希望你一切顺利。请代我向你的家人问好。

Sincerely yours,

Jason

英文翻译告白的情书一

To: Andy ~ From: Tricia

Dear Andy,

Now, I know we have not gotten to really know each other all that long and there is a little bit of an age difference between us, but I do really like you. You are a very special guy. There is so much about you I see that I know most girls dont see. They are all looking at you for your body. But Honey, I am telling you, that is not what I am doing. There is so much more to you than that. I have liked you for a very long time now but just never had the guts to say it to you. Well, that has all changed now. I am going all out and I am going to say it all. I really care a lot about you, and I would like to be a lot more then just friends. You mean so much to me. I mean, just seeing your cute little smile when I am having a bad day just makes the day seem not too dim. Or just to have you give me a hug makes me all warm and tingly inside. Just to see your smiling face brightens my darkest day. So, Hon, what do you say, would you like to give it a go?

Love Always,

Whinny

To:安迪:特里西娅

亲爱的安迪,

现在,我知道我们还没有真正了解对方,长期的,有我们的年龄相差一点点,但我真的很喜欢你。你是一个很特别的家伙。有这么多的了解你,我知道,我知道大多数女孩没有看到。他们都在看着你,你的身体。但是,亲爱的,我告诉你,那不是我在做什么。有这么多,你比。我也很喜欢你很长一段时间,但现在只是从来没有胆量说给你。好了,现在一切都改变了。我全力以赴,我会说这一切。我真的很在乎了很多关于你,我想了很多只是朋友。你的意思是我这么多。我的意思是,只看到你可爱的笑容时,我有一个糟糕的一天,只是让这一天似乎不是太暗。或者只是你给我一个拥抱,让我所有的热情和刺痛感里面。刚看到你的笑脸,照亮了我最黑暗的一天。因此,汉,你说什么,你想给它一个去?

永远爱你,

萧萧

英文带翻译告白的情书二

Every beat of my heart, loudly cries your name, I want so much to be withyou, oh, please, please, feel the same.

内心的每一次跳动,都在呼喊你的名字。我是如此渴望和你在一起,噢,希望你,希望你,能有同样的感觉。

I am looking for a word. I am looking for a whole new word. I am looking for aword. I am looking for a word that nobody knows. I am looking for a word. I amlooking for a word that says...that you are the best!

我在寻找一句话,我在寻找一句全新的话。我在寻找一句话,我在寻找一句没人知道的话。我在寻找一句话,我在寻找一句话说……你是最好的!

If you are the wind, I am the sand.

If you are the shoe, I am the brush.

If you dont love me, I just wanna die.

如果你是风,我就是沙;

如果你是鞋,我就是刷;

如果你不爱我哦,我就会死。

推荐指数:☆☆☆☆绝杀秘笈:幽默诙谐是这个类型的特点,如果你是个外向幽默的人极力推荐这种类型的表白,最后一个的风沙、鞋刷组合的表白不禁让人联想到《还珠格格》里面的一首歌“你是风儿,我是沙,缠缠绵绵绕天涯”,哈哈。

风险后果:英国阿伯丁大学公布的一项研究结果发现,真诚、直接的表白是最有效的求爱表白方式。如果你不那么灵活机动,不推荐用这款,小心因为说话不到位而对方觉得你不够真诚,聪明反被聪明误。

本人姓我!名爱你!字想你!大名叫懂你!芳名叫疼你!乳名叫念你!书名叫梦你!外号叫追你!你可以叫我吻你。

推荐指数:☆☆☆绝杀秘笈:看似平凡,却具有让感情沦陷的杀伤力,而且越往后看越令人小鹿乱撞,果然功夫了得!

篇20:英文谚语的汉语翻译

全文共 2554 字

+ 加入清单

有两则关于同一条英语谚语Blood is thicker than water的译例。其一是“清水不浓血却浓”,其二是“血浓于水”。从字面上看,上述两则译例译得固然不错,似无可厚非。译文读起来很顺,又比较易懂,但读后似有不知所云之感。

这是因为译文的形象没能准确地传达出这条谚语的喻义来。

Longman Dictionary of English Idioms(p.28)上对这条谚语的解释是“The relationship between people of the same family is stronger than other,relationships”因此,这则谚语似可以借用汉语中一句俗语“亲不亲一家人”来译更能表达出“属于同一血缘关系的一家人比别人更亲近一些”的寓意。

语言是文化的表现形式。谚语同文学作品、诗歌一样是语言的精华。英语谚语是富于色彩的语言形式,一般具有生动形象、喻义明显、富于哲理的语言特征。在一定程度上,英语谚语反映了英语民族的文化特点。因此,翻译英语谚语时,仅仅以语言之间词汇的同义性(等价性)为前提,寻求对等的表现是不够的。译者须较多运用汉语的表现手段,力求能再现英语谚语的语言风格和丰富内涵。只有多注意英语谚语字面以外所特有的语言内涵色彩,才能使译文讽喻得当,宜于说理,又不失原来谚语所具有的语言形象。

某些英语谚语和汉语成语、俗语在表现形式和含义方面是一致的或基本一致的。汉译这些英语时,可惜用与其喻义相同或相近的成语或谚语及俗语直接对译。这样不但可以比较好地保持原文的神韵和形式,又使译文易于为读者或听者接受。如:

Pride comes before a fall.骄兵必败。

Amiss is as good as a mile.差之毫厘,失之千里。

Two is company,but three is none.两个和尚抬水吃,三个和尚无水吃。

Walls have ear.隔墙有耳。

Enough is as good as a feast.知足常乐。

有些英语谚语虽然在语言习惯和文化背景方面和其相对的汉语谚语之间存在着某些差异,而且所比喻的事物并不一样,但他们的喻义却相互吻合,而且表达方式也很相似,汉译这些英语谚语时,常常需要“易其形式,存其精神”,即采用形象近似的汉语成语意译。这样可使译文既喻义明显,又含而不露,且可再现原文所具有的语言效果,容易达意。如:

Two can play the game.孤掌难鸣。

Newbroom sweeps clean.新官上任三把火。

Speak of the devil,and he appears.说曹操,曹操到。

The grass is greener on the other side of the hill.这山望着那山高。

Putting the cart before the horse.本末倒置。

有些英语谚语意在言外,语言含蓄,寓意深刻。如果仅从字面意义直译成汉语,而不领会原文的具体含义及其效果,译文势必平淡无味。这样既不能表达意思,又有损于原文的语言形象和丰富内涵。因此,在翻译时,应在汉语中寻找那些与原文喻义相同或效果相似的成语、谚语或俗语来表达,则会使译文形象生动,准确达意。试比较下列各译例。

People who live in glass houses should not throw stones.如译成“住在玻璃房子里的人,不应扔石头”不如译成“己有过,勿正人”或“责人必先责己”。

In fair weather prepare for the foul.如译成“晴天要防阴天”,不如译成“有备无患”或“居安思危”或“未雨绸缪”。

Murder will out.如译成“谋杀终必败露”,不如译成“纸包不住火”。

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.如译成“愚者敢闯天使不敢去的地方”,不如译成“初生牛犊不怕虎”。

One cannot make an omelette without breaking eggs.如译成“想吃煎蛋卷,就得打鸡蛋”,不如译成工“有得必有失”或甚至可以引申为“不破不立”。

如果所要翻译的谚语喻义清新,形象逼真,按其字面直译其意,就能表达出原文的喻义来,则可直译。这样做既能较完整地保存原文的表达方式,且又可丰富我们自己的语言文化,一举两得,请看下面的译例。

God helps those who help themselves.上帝帮助那些自己帮助自己的人。或“自助者天助之”。

Money is the root of all evil.金钱是万恶之源。

An empty sack cannot stand upright.空袋立不直。

Do as you would be done by. 以你所期望的别人待你的方式待人。

这与另一谚语: Don’t do unto others what you don’t want others do unto you.“己所不欲勿施于人”很相似。

Money talks.钱能通神。

有些英语谚语常常采用对称的修辞手段。使用这一修辞手段的目的在于加强语势,宜于说理,读后有心悦诚眼之感。汉译这些谚语时,应适当注意保持其修辞色彩,以便体现原文的表达方式。如:

You may take a horse to the water, but you can’t make it drink.

如果按字面译成,“你可以把马牵到河边去,但不能叫它饮水”至少是没有充分体现这句谚语本身所具有的强烈对比色彩。从语法分析的观点看,在这个句子里,情态动词may和can虽然都表示“可能”的,但在含义上有所不同。这里may表示“事实上的可能性”,而can则表示“逻辑上的可能性”。并列连词but使前后两个分句意义相反,对比色彩强烈。在这种情况下,译文也必须力求对偶整齐,前后呼应,形成对照。如将此句译作“牵马河边易,逼它饮水难”或“老牛不喝水,不能强按头”会更好些。

总之,即使像谚语这样孤立的语句,翻译时也需尽一番揣摩切磋之功,否则译文就可能与原文“貌合神离”,文不达意。译事艰辛也许正在于此。
