翻译范文:
The quadrangle is a traditional courtyard residence in China. A standard quadrangle usually consists of a courtyard with independent houses along its four sides. Houses in different directions have their own names. The house on the north facing the courtyard’s entrance is called the main house; the house which lies on the east or west is called the side house; and the one stands on the south is called reversely-set house. The older generation or the head of the household lives in the main house, while the younger generation lives in the side houses. The reversely-set house can be used as a kitchen, a storeroom, a sitting-room or a study. The quadrangle has now become a tourist attraction and is well-known to tourists from all over the world.
范文详解:
1.合院式住宅:译为courtyard residence即可,其中residence意为“住宅, 民居”。
2.坐北对着…东西两边…坐南朝北:这个句子含有三个并列分句,且结构基本一致,所以可以用三个相同结构的连续的分句来表达。为了避免表达单调,三个分句可选择不同的谓语动词,使译文既有一致性又富有变化。
3.观光景点:可译为a tourist attraction 或a sightseeing spot。
4.世界各地的:英语中可把定语前置或者后置,所以此修饰语可译成all over the world或worldwide.
