English-Chinese Contrast and Translation

I.

Introduction




I have learned the
“
Comparison of English and Translation:An Introduction
”
for a semester
and I would like to talk about some of my own understanding of this course here .




II.
Native
Language
Transfer
in
first
language
learning
:
Interference
or
Facilitation ?
Some people may ask what is language transfer . Transfer is the influence resulting from the
similarities
and
differences
between
the
target
language
and
any
other
language
that
has
been
previously acquired . (Od-lin , 1989 : 27 )
We could divided translate into two part : Negative Transfer and Positive Transfer .
By awareness of the similarities and differences between the two languages can facilitate first
language learning .

2.1

Negative Transfer
To sum up , there are probably three causes would form negative transfer . Firstly , analogical
use of one
’
s prior knowledge of the mother tongue makes us study Chinese-style English easier .
Secondly , Confusion comes from scanty knowledge of differences between the two languages .
Thirdly , we always unconscious falling back on the mother tongue since customary .
For a few example :
2.1.1

The writer likes writing at light (night) .






The sound /n/ does not exist in some Chinese dialects and /l/ serves as a substitute .
2.1.2

He only eat two meal a day .






Neither nouns nor verbs have inflections in Chinese .
2.1.3

Shanghai is said to have thirteen million population .






The
noun
renkou
,
the
Chinese
equivalent
of

“
population
”

can
have
a
numerical
pre-modifier .
2.1 4

He suggested me to accept this offer .






The verb jianyi , the Chinese equivalent of

“
suggest
”
can be used in VOC pattern in
Chinese .
2.1.5

--Your English is wonderful .






--No , no . My English is still poor .






The
negative
reply
to
a
compliment
is
considered
in
Chinese
as
modest
and
courteous .
We could turn negative transfer into positive by making analysis on differences between the
two languages and arouse the learner
’
s awareness of avoiding or reducing errors from analogy .
