“屌丝”一词因其粗俗和毫无审美价值内涵而饱受争议,代表了当下一种低俗的文化价值取向。而不加选择地采用直译的方式翻译这一词汇不仅使语言的审美功能缺失,也让价值取向出现偏差。坚持语言的审美功能和正确的价值取向是汉外翻译的基本原则。 “Reeling ” is controversial because of its vulgarity and no aesthetic value, which represents the current vulgar cultural value orientation. The indiscriminate use of literal translation of the word not only makes the language of the aesthetic function is missing, but also to bias the value orientation. Persisting in the aesthetic function of language and the correct value orientation are the basic principles for translating Chinese and foreign languages.
