Good advice is beyond all price. 听君一席话，胜读十年书
1.elder 与elderly
两者都为“年老的”，但有细微的差别。 elderly 指中年与暮年之间的年龄，表示人已过中年，因此，这词常用来代替 old。如：an elderly gentleman. 一位年长的绅士。elder指年龄稍长者，适用于家庭的兄弟姐妹之间。如： Tom is the elder of the two. 汤姆是两个孩子中较大的一个。
2.precious 和 expensive
expensive 表示“昂贵的”。如：the drink was cheap , but the food was very expensive . 饮料很便宜，但食物很贵。 precious 表示“珍贵的，宝贵的”。如：the children are precious to me . 孩子们对我来说很重要。
3.regret to do 和 regret doing
egret doing 表示“做了某事而感到遗憾或后悔”，v-ing 动作发生在regret 之前。如：i regretted missing the train. 我为没有赶上火车而感到很懊恼。 regret to do 指“当时或现在遗憾地做什么”。如：i regret to tell you that we can't stay here any longer. 我遗憾地告诉你，我们不能在这儿多呆了。
4.day by day 和 day after day
两词组意思很近，但有区别：day by day 只用作状语，表示“一天天地”, 有逐渐转变的意思。如：day by day she seems to grow a little taller.她似乎一天天地长高了。 day after day 可作主语，宾语等，亦可作状语，表示“一天又一天”，强调动作的重复，表示时间的长久。如： we do the same work day after day. 每天我们做着同样的事情。/ day after day went by , and i still don't receive her letter. 一天天过去了，我还是没有收到她的来信。
5.damp 与 wet
两者都表示“潮湿的”，但有细微差别。wet 指曾浸泡在液体中或布满了液体的东西，或指多雨的天气。如： it's a wet day. 今天是一个雨天。/ wet clothes 湿衣服。 damp 指未湿透但潮湿的东西。 the damp in the air makes me uncomfortable. 潮湿的空气使我感到不舒服。
6.hunger 与 starvation
两词都表“饥饿”。 hunger 指人对食物的迫切要求，是一种正常的生理现象。如： hunger is the best sauce. 肚子饿了吃什么都香。而 starvation 指长时间缺乏食物引起痛苦，与 hunger 相比是不正常的生理现象，而是人为的灾难。如： the old man died of starvation. 那个老人活活饿死了。
7.boring 与 dull , tiresome
三词都为“令人厌烦的”，但有区别：boring 概念最广，尤指引起人厌倦、枯燥的谈话文章，也指令人生厌的人。 如：the talk was very long and boring. 这篇谈话冗长，毫无趣味。 dull 与 boring 极为相近，也指因呆板或缺乏趣味性而令人感到厌倦。如： a dull book 一本枯燥的书。 tiresome主指单调沉闷而产生疲倦厌烦。如：it's tiresome to be funny for a whole evening整晚上都逗笑取乐是很疲劳的。
8.gift 与 present
两词都为“礼物”，但有细微的差别。 gift 既指免费捐赠给团体或机构的物品，也指亲友间互赠礼品。如： a gift to the museum一件捐给博物馆的赠品。present 指亲友间互赠, 如： here is a little present for you. 这儿有你一份小小的礼物。
9.handsome 与 beautiful
两词都表“美丽”，但有区别。 beautiful 指优美和谐、高贵，多形容妇女、地方、事物，很少用来形容男子。如： a beautiful woman 一位美丽的妇女 / a beautiful scene美景。而 handsome 用于形容男人，表示英俊潇洒。如： he is a tall and handsome man. 他是一个高大英俊的男人。
10.country 与 nation
country 表示国家，包括领土和人民，着重指疆土。该词概念极为广泛，可用于各种文体，有时作“祖国”讲，带感情色彩。如：china is a great country with a long history .中国是一个历史悠久的伟大国家。/ his fathers country was france. 他父亲的祖国是法国。/ after many years abroad,he wanted to return home to his country. 在国外呆了多年以后，他想回到自己的祖国去。country 来源于拉丁文contra，是对立的意思，即某地区与其他地区极不相同从而独立存在。nation指在某一国土上定居的人民，以及代表他们的独立政权。nation 来源于拉丁文nasci,意思是出生，nation原指具有相同血源的民族，因此它强调一个国家中的人民，概念较country 狭窄。如: the chinese nation 中华民族。the whole nation rose to resist aggression. 全民奋起抗击侵略。/ the president spoke on radio to the nation. 总统通过广播向全国人民讲话。 但在国际交往正式场合下，ation 语体庄重，较country 用得多。如：the united nations 联合国/ a most favoured nation 最惠国 / the law of nations 国际公法

第二节 言内因素和言外因素均可引致的错误 一 错解原意
翻译中错解作者原意的情况非常普遍。言内因素可以造成错解原意。例如：
You cannot choose your battlefield. The gods do that for you，
But you can plant a standard where a standard never flew. （Nathalia Crane: The colours） 一个大学英语专业三年级的学生译成： “你不能选择你的战场， 神灵已为你做了选择，， 然而你能树立一种规范，
在那规范从来不曾有过的地方。（纳塔莉·克兰《多彩》）
原诗中的standard和colors都指“军旗”，但该学生对这两个词表示“军旗”的意义都不熟悉，且又未能结合上下文分析意思，抓住battlefield ， fly这些词的暗示，因而错解了整节诗的意思。再如台湾电视台有一欢转播美国电视台直播的”三位宇航员升空的实况。宇航员说： “We are in good shape.”（我们情况良好。）台湾电视台的解说员乌龙却把这句话译成：“我们的'三围’很好”，并且还自作聪明地妄加按语，说美国宇航员真够幽默，上了太空还说笑话等等。懂英语的电视观众听罢为之哗然，纷纷往电视台打电话质询，闹成了一个大笑话。①下面是译者没有吃透原文的意思而造成了错译的例子：
Many a friend will tell us our faults without reserve， who will not so much as hint at our follies. （Lord Chesterfield ：《Letters》， July l，1748）（许多在我们做蠢事时连提醒都不提醒我们一下的朋友，却会毫不客气地指出我们的过失。）”许多朋友愿意无保留地向我们指出错误，可是却不会同样地暗示我们的愚蠢。
英语中的“曲言法”（litotes）常使译者错解其意，如：
This is some war！ （这是一场大战!）”这是某种战争！
lcalI that some poem，（这可是首好诗。）”我把它叫作一种诗口 在更多的情况下，错解原意是由言外因素造成的。例如：本世纪20年代，当西方文学
和俄苏文学大量译成白话文介绍到我国时，英语中的drawing－room （客厅，即withdrawing room是客人饭后withdraw into的地方。）一词曾被译成“图画室”，这显然与当时西式建筑在中国仍属少见，译者不熟悉这种房间的用途有关，因为中国旧式民居中类似于客厅的堂“屋既是接待客人的地方，又是主人和客人用餐的地方。本世纪80年代的一位译者由于对基督教的《圣经》缺少最起码的常识，也曾把Old Testament和Holy Land分别译成“古代的塔斯曼”和“赫利兰”。②英国政府各部的首脑称Secretary of State（大臣）。在某些事务繁多的部，另设Minister （of State）（国务大臣），为副职，辅佐大臣工作。不熟悉这种制度的译者很可能会把Minister of Foreign and Commonwealth Office（外交和联邦事务部国务大臣）译成“外交和联邦事务部大臣”。 原语和译语文化在思维模式上的差异常使译者不假思索地犯下理解错误。例如，汉语里“上”一般同时间上的"早"、”先”相联系，（“上辈”、“上半夜”、“上去”等）而在英语里，“上”则正好相反，是同时间上的“晚”、“近”联系在一起的。有人把upper pa1eolitbic（旧石器时代晚期）误译成“旧石器时代早期”，就是因为末注意到这种差异的缘故。
文本间相关的性质与译者对原丈的理解之间有着密切的联系。例如：英国剧作家德鲁登（John Druten）的剧本《The Voice of the Turtle》在一家晚报上彼译成《乌龟的声音》。其实剧名中的Turtle是“turtle dove”的简称，整个剧名暗指《旧约·雅歌》第2章第II～12节：“因为冬天已往，雨水止住过去了。地上百花开放；百鸟鸣叫的时候已经来到，斑鸠的声音在我们境内也听见了。”所以该剧应译成《斑鸠之声》或《春到人间》才不悖原意。英国保守党前副主席、小说家Jeffrey Arche，的名著《The Prodigal Daughter》的书名也与《圣经》中的典故有关系，它仿拟the prodiga1 son（浪子）。因此应译成《浪女》才对，但却曾被错译成《豪华之女》。
原语文化和译语文化在价值观念上的差异是很多错译的原因，”例如：
There was nothing mass produced about the school， but if it was individualistic，it also had discipline。 （Agatha Christie：《Cat Among the pigons》），这所学校并不是大量出人才的。但如果说这所学 校强调个性，可是它也注意纪律。mass produced指“批量生产”，在注重个性的西方文化里含有某种贬义，译者错把它译成褒义的“大量出人才”，这中间不能说没有强调集体主义和数量的中国文化价值观在起作用。 二 使生误解
使生误解指的是使读者对原文产生误解，它和错解原意不同。错解原意时，译者自己对原文的理解就是错误的；而使生误解时，译者对原文的理解一般来说是正确的，但在传达中不自觉地扭曲了原意，使读者对原文产生不正确的理解。
我国翻译界一直存在着一个非常普遍的问题，这就是违反“名从主人”的原则，音译专有名词的词尾，使得同一个专名有好几个译名，致使读者无所适从；有时甚至使人们本来熟悉的专名变得面目全非。例如，古希腊有一个山区叫Doris （多里斯）。按理说，这个山区里土生土长的部落应该叫“多里斯部落”，这个地区特有的一种柱式建筑应该叫“多里斯柱式”才对；可是许多译者却按英语Deris的形容词形式，把两者分别译成了“多里安部落”（Derian tribes）和“陶里克／多里克式”（Doric Order）；意大利中西部的古国Etrusia （埃特鲁西亚)的人（Etruscans）被译成了“埃特鲁斯坎人”，再也看不出他们同自己生息之地的关系； Sassanid Persians （萨珊王朝彼斯人）被译成“萨萨尼德波斯人”；法国西北部地区Brittany （布列塔尼）的农民（Breton peasants）被译成“布列东的农民”。中世纪欧洲的一个国家Flanders （法语为la Flandre包括现比利时、法国、荷兰等地区）， 14世纪初即为法国所占， 15世纪时成为勃良第公国领地。英法为争夺它打了“百年战争”，以法国战胜而告终。因为它长期处于法国统治之下，故应依照名从主人原则，按法语读音译成“佛兰德”，而不应按英语读
音译成“法兰德斯”。它的形容词和表示人的名称也应是“佛兰德的”和“佛兰德人”，而不应是法语的弗拉芒（Flammand ）更不应该是英语的“佛来米”（Flemish）。然而，迄今为止，这三个不正确的译名仍在各种报刊书籍中混乱不堪地使用着。
再如，宋庆龄逝世后，新华社与各报刊上发表的悼念文章中，提到来庆龄生前在美国佐治亚州就读的大学时，译成“威斯里安女子大学”的有之，译成“魏斯理安女子大学”的有之，译成“威土莱安女子学院”的有之，译成“苇斯莱茵学院”的也有之；名称之分歧，令读者不敢肯定它们是指同一所学校，造成这种混乱的根本原因在于：译者都昔译了
Wesleyan这个形容词的词尾-an。Wesleyan College是为了纪念英国圣公会牧师、与其弟同创卫斯理宗的约翰·卫斯理（John Wesley， 1703－1791）而创立的一所女子大学。由于“卫斯理宗”这一译名已经约定俗成，所以该校应译成“卫斯理女子大学”才对。
使生误解的翻译有时是由译者对原语对象的性质缺乏了解造成的。例如：中外闻名的敦煌壁画常被译成the Dunhuang frescoes。其实fresco主要指文艺复兴时期意大利画家画的“湿壁画”，而敦煌壁画中并没有真正的湿壁画，因此，这种译法是错误的，正确的翻译应为the Dunhuang murals。
绝大部分让读者误入歧途的译文之所以产生，乃是因为译者不知道该译法在译语里的确切意义。试看以下的例子： 你的建议值得商榷。
正确译法：Your suggestion is open to question。
错误译法：Your suggestion is worthy of discussion( deliberation).
他们对我们的工作没有多大意见。
正确译法：They don't have much complaint about our work.
Or: They have no great opinion of our work. 人民文学出版社1978年出版的《儒林外史》英译本中，“纸钱”（spirit money）被误译为paper money，而在英语中，paper money 指
的是“钞票”、“支票”、“汇票”等无息票据。 一家商店的英文广告把“人造裘皮服装”译成了human fur garments（人皮服装），也曾令顾客惊诧不已。 怎样问生肖或属相 --您是属什么的？
—Under what animal sign (or symbol) were you born?
or—What animal sign were you born under? —我属猪。 — Mine is Boar.
orI was born in the year of the Boar. ——明年是什么年？
—— What is next year's animal sign?
It's the Tiger.

expensive 表示“昂贵的”。如：the drink was cheap , but the food was very expensive . 饮料很便宜，但食物很贵。 precious 表示“珍贵的，宝贵的”。如：the children are precious to me . 孩子们对我来说很重要。
3.regret to do 和 regret doing
egret doing 表示“做了某事而感到遗憾或后悔”，v-ing 动作发生在regret 之前。如：i regretted missing the train. 我为没有赶上火车而感到很懊恼。 regret to do 指“当时或现在遗憾地做什么”。如：i regret to tell you that we can't stay here any longer. 我遗憾地告诉你，我们不能在这儿多呆了。
4.day by day 和 day after day
两词组意思很近，但有区别：day by day 只用作状语，表示“一天天地”, 有逐渐转变的意思。如：day by day she seems to grow a little taller.她似乎一天天地长高了。 day after day 可作主语，宾语等，亦可作状语，表示“一天又一天”，强调动作的重复，表示时间的长久。如： we do the same work day after day. 每天我们做着同样的事情。/ day after day went by , and i still don't receive her letter. 一天天过去了，我还是没有收到她的来信。
5.damp 与 wet{stay的谚语}.
两者都表示“潮湿的”，但有细微差别。wet 指曾浸泡在液体中或布满了液体的东西，或指多雨的天气。如： it's a wet day. 今天是一个雨天。/ wet clothes 湿衣服。 damp 指未湿透但潮湿的东西。 the damp in the air makes me uncomfortable. 潮湿的空气使我感到不舒服。
6.hunger 与 starvation
两词都表“饥饿”。 hunger 指人对食物的迫切要求，是一种正常的生理现象。如： hunger is the best sauce. 肚子饿了吃什么都香。而 starvation 指长时间缺乏食物引起痛苦，与 hunger 相比是不正常的生理现象，而是人为的灾难。如： the old man died of starvation. 那个老人活活饿死了。
7.boring 与 dull , tiresome
三词都为“令人厌烦的”，但有区别：boring 概念最广，尤指引起人厌倦、枯燥的谈话文章，也指令人生厌的人。 如：the talk was very long and boring. 这篇谈话冗长，毫无趣味。 dull 与 boring 极为相近，也指因呆板或缺乏趣味性而令人感到厌倦。如： a dull book 一本枯燥的书。 tiresome主指单调沉闷而产生疲倦厌烦。如：it's tiresome to be funny for a whole evening整晚上都逗笑取乐是很疲劳的。
8.gift 与 present
两词都为“礼物”，但有细微的差别。 gift 既指免费捐赠给团体或机构的物品，也指亲友间互赠礼品。如： a gift to the museum一件捐给博物馆的赠品。present 指亲友间互赠, 如： here is a little present for you. 这儿有你一份小小的礼物。
9.handsome 与 beautiful
两词都表“美丽”，但有区别。 beautiful 指优美和谐、高贵，多形容妇女、地方、事物，很少用来形容男子。如： a beautiful woman 一位美丽的妇女 / a beautiful scene美景。而 handsome 用于形容男人，表示英俊潇洒。如： he is a tall and handsome man. 他是一个高大英俊的男人。
10.country 与 nation
country 表示国家，包括领土和人民，着重指疆土。该词概念极为广泛，可用于各种文体，有时作“祖国”讲，带感情色彩。如：china is a great country with a long history .中国是一个历史悠久的伟大国家。/ his fathers country was france. 他父亲的祖国是法国。/ after many years abroad,he wanted to return home to his country. 在国外呆了多年以后，他想回到自己的祖国去。country 来源于拉丁文contra，是对立的意思，即某地区与其他地区极不相同从而独立存在。nation指在某一国土上定居的人民，以及代表他们的独立政权。nation 来源于拉丁文nasci,意思是出生，nation原指具有相同血源的民族，因此它强调一个国家中的人民，概念较country 狭窄。如: the chinese nation 中华民族。the whole nation rose to resist aggression. 全民奋起抗击侵略。/ the president spoke on radio to the nation. 总统通过广播向全国人民讲话。 但在国际交往正式场合下，ation 语体庄重，较country 用得多。如：the united nations 联合国/ a most favoured nation 最惠国 / the law of nations 国际公法
