Abstract


Cultural default in translation refers to the default of the works of its intention to readers shared cultural background knowledge. At the time of writing, the author by leaving some semantic gap, on the one hand, you can save ink, concise purpose, on the other hand, but also to provide the reader with a to enjoy literary mood in the exploration space, allowing the reader to actively participate in the work to go. Readers stimulate their own cultural background knowledge to fill the vacancy left by default to obtain semantic coherence, and then enjoy the aesthetic value of the work. But as the main means of cross-cultural communication translation, its target audience due to differences in cultural background, is not the original intention to readers of the column, so there is no appropriate background knowledge to fill the vacancy, it is impossible to obtain a coherent understanding. Therefore the default culture phenomenon translator, is a huge challenge. The cultural default phenomenon of system analysis and research. The first study on the various functions of the cultural default analysis, further research culture default translation problems, summed up several common mistakes and inadequacies. To solve these problems, the authors believe that the translator must have the correct attitude of translation, a superb cross-cultural and language skills. On the basis of the above study, based on cognitive language school association theory of creatively constructed cultural the default translate the theoretical model, explicitly dynamic progressive concept of cultural default translation, and cultural default The translation is attributed to three levels, namely cultural transplantation, cultural annotations and cultural omitted. These three levels is a dynamic progressive process. Specific sections are distributed as follows: Chapter 1: first discuss the relationship between the three languages, translation, cultural, clear translation location, and then put forward the culture of the translation function, that is passed to introduce culture to promote cultural development, clear this article research purpose and meaning. Chapter II: cultural default system from the definition, classification to the specific features of discourse structure, language function, aesthetic value three cultural default discussed. Chapter 3: Author analysis and lists the translation problems caused by cultural default, pointed out that the The the cultural default translation problem mainly from two aspects: on the one hand, due to the translator for the ability to accept the culture of the target audience and the level estimated improperly resulting in excessive or undertranslation; another aspect of cultural misreading is caused by cultural default interference. The authors believe that, to overcome these problems, the translator must not only have the ability to proficient in both languages, but also bicultural experts. Chapter 4: With Pragmatic learn the associated theory of depth to explore the essence of the translation, and creative translation models under the framework of Relevance Theory, code mode and the mode of reasoning used in the cultural default translation. Also pointed out: the cultural default translation should be operating the following manner, that is, if the literal meaning is the same and the same conversational implicature completely literal; implication is part of the same literal filling; literal meaning is the same The implication, take paraphrase. This is a dynamic process, and cultural default translation should be in accordance with the notation from paraphrase to the literal translation eventually completely literal translation, the process depends on the cultural exchange in-depth, and promote cultural exchange is a seepage
