翻译是将一种语言文化转化为另一种语言文化的过程。也就是说翻译不仅涉及两种语言,还涉及两种文化,而且文化的差异成为影响翻译的重要因素。本文试从中日民族地缘环境的差异、社会历史背景的差异、思维及语言表达方式的差异以及民族文化心理的差异四个方面论述中日文化差异对翻译的影响。 Translation is the process of transforming one language culture into another language culture. In other words, translation not only involves two languages, but also involves two cultures, and cultural differences have become important factors affecting translation. This paper attempts to discuss the influence of cultural differences between China and Japan on translation from four aspects: the differences of national geography environment, the differences of social and historical backgrounds, the differences of thinking and language expression, and the differences of national cultural psychology.
