Introduction paper51.com As the development ofglobal economy, culture and politics, people in different places contact witheach other more and more frequently. They often face culture shock. Animal iswidely used in western and Chinese culture in the idiom. If we want to makepeople from different places knowing and understanding with each other. Firstwe are asked to know the animal of the different and the same meaning in the differentculture. Then according to different methods, we translate animals in differentstrategies. Only by doing this, we are capable of communicating with foreign friendseasily and smoothly and make our country more powerful and stronger. paper51.com Language is the expressionof the culture, tradition, history, and religions. The idioms are one of themost important accumulations of the language. The animals occupy very largepart in the idioms. It also reflects the culture, tradition, history andreligions. In history, people have close relationship with animals, and people imposeanimal different meanings by its appearance, character and human culture, tradition,history, and religions. copyright paper51.com As the development ofglobal economy and politics and culture, we are expected to understand moreabout the difference and translation between the western and eastern, or wewill be confused and mistaken in contacting with foreign friends in manyaspects. For example, two years ago, a foreign friend asked me a question. Shehad a golden owl pendant, which was her favorite treasure that her mother gaveher three years ago as her birthday gift. When she was in America, her friends liked it verymuch and praised it a beautiful gift. But after she came to China, some old ladies suggest thatshe should not wear it at all. She was confused and came to me to ask why. Ichecked the Chinese dictionary and knew that owl was an evil animal that onlybrought unfortunate omen. If in countryside people heard owl howling, theywould think there must be dead people tonight. Then I checked the English dictionary.The howl had different meaning and image. In western country, owl represented wisdom.If we watched foreign movies, we often see an old owl with a pair of bigglasses to read books and tell the small boy what he is able to do or what he cannot do. After this thing, I know the importance of distinguishing the differentmeanings between Chinese animals and western animals, so the understanding andtranslation of animals is extremely important in communication of different people. paper51.com |
