翻译中的失误往往是由于词义的选择错误所致。在英译汉时,词义的准确选择很大程度上依赖于它所处的语境。语境使词义的褒贬含义和词的搭配关系在具体的上下文中更加明确,从而为译者确定词义提供了依据。因此说离开语境,翻译将无从谈起。 Translation errors are often due to the wrong choice of meaning. In the English-Chinese translation, the precise choice of meaning depends very much on the context in which it is located. The context makes the meanings of the meanings and the meanings of the words and the collocations of the words more explicit in the specific context, which provides the basis for the translator to define the meaning of the words. So to leave the context, translation will be impossible.
