  Town Planning 城市規劃

  Transport 交通

  Water Supply 水務

粗略地從22個專題中(非背景所說21個),選看了每一專題其中的一些詞條,認為是一項很認真的工作,對譯人有參考價值。特別對我這香港仔來說,倍感親切。翻譯是帶有濃厚的殖民地遺風,一些譯法是有別於現時中國大陸的常用習慣。回歸後,在翻譯方面,有沒有意圖或需要與祖國接軌呢,是一個值得商榷的問題。而每一個詞目,只有一個單一譯法,這是否意味著,不會或不能用官方認可以外的譯法呢?還是在公事上,政府部門間使用某些辭彙時,必須用這些統一的翻譯,而且民間又是否必須遵照無誤呢?或許,這些都是牛角尖的問題,希望正如背景中所說﹕(只)供各界人士參考(而已)。

Thanks for sharing Jul 6, 2007

個人認為現時香港還未完全接受/習慣國內的用語,很多人對國內的一些用語都感到陌生,因此翻譯時需考慮讀者市場而決定把源語譯成迎合國內、香港或台灣市場的中文。

翻譯工具只是供參考而已,翻譯員應具有充份的能力去選擇合適的辭彙。現今社會瞬息萬變,即使提供一詞多個譯法的辭典也未必能應付所有需要,翻譯員有時候也要融會貫通,推陳出新。
