LOGO 第8讲 翻译技巧（四） －增词法 增词法（亦称增补法或增益法）：指在英汉翻译中适当增加原文中无其形而有其义的词语，以使译文自然通顺，完整、贴切地表达原文的思想内容。 （1）Success is often just an idea away. 原译：成功往往只是一个念头的距离。 改译：成功与否往往只是一念之差。 （2）The dust, the uproar and the growing darkness threw everything into chaos. 原译：烟尘、喧闹声和渐浓的夜色使一切都陷入混乱之中。 改译：烟尘滚滚，人声嘈杂，夜色愈浓，一切都陷入混乱之 中。 运用增词法的两种主要情况： 英文原文中由于语法原因省略的词语 英语原文中未明确表达的隐含意义 运用增词法的两种主要类型 增补原文中省略的词语 增加语义上、修辞上需要的词语 Contents 增补原文中省略的词语 8.1. 增加语义上、修辞上需要的词语 8.2. 8.1增补原文中省略的词语 8.1.1 增补回答句中省略的词语 8.1.2 增补并列句中省略的词语 8.1.3 增补复合句中省略的词语 8.1.1 增补回答句中省略的词语 在回答英语一般疑问句时，通常采用省略句。汉译时，为了使表达清楚、意思完整，有时需要增补省却的词语。如： (3) Are you hungry?

(8) A fool and his words are soon parted; a man of genius and his money. （9）We won’t retreat; we never have and never will. 8.1.2 增补并列句中省略的词语 (10) The total amount of solution added is not important, but the amount of solute is.
