Abstract


This article from the perspective of cognitive function, the name of the class in the transfer phenomenon materialized and relative clauses analysis, trying to reveal the language and cognitive basis of the two can be generated with combing both in discourse, style, language, information, etc. the objectification and relative clauses translation factors constraining the operation mechanism, and on this basis to explore nominalization and relative clauses translation, summed up the law in order to provide constructive suggestions to the translator translation strategies, in the name of evaluation provide theoretical support . The analysis showed that the generation of nominalization and relative clauses is the result of the interaction of the English syntactic structure based on cognitive principles (close to the principles of the number of principles and economic principles), and its operations are subject to a variety of factors. Name can lead to physical and chemical the clause ingredients 'lost', adjustment and restructuring, certain clauses ingredients be highlighted; conducive to the organization Discourse Cohesion and coherence; conducive to highlight the macro semantic structure of the discourse, the expression clearly focused; conducive to the construction of certain stylistic features such as science, technology, news, legal, advertising and other sports. The name materialized in the style of science and technology in use also consistent with the requirements of the principle of cooperation. In addition, the use of the name materialized \The relative clauses operation information factors. Restrictive clauses with its main clause closely, constitute a unit of information; non-restrictive clauses with its main clause looser relationship, which in themselves constitute a unit of information. Off contact with the current topic / importance, relative clause contains information generally inferior to the information contained in the main clause. However, when the relative clause appears to mark a form, the information contained in the information it contains is more often than their non-labeled forms. In addition, in some cases, restrictive clauses with the removal of restrictions and non-restrictive relative clauses also produced the default. The name materialized above analysis, the Chinese translation of the relative clause has brought a lot of inspiration. In nominalization translation traditional name is a good way to turn the translation method. But in some cases, English nominalization best translated into Chinese in the name of the physical and chemical structure, in the translation because doing so can keep the name of the highlights of the physical and chemical composition in the English sentence, to achieve the reproduction of the English Text macro-semantic structure helps Cohesion and coherence of the translation, the right to convey the original author of default, on the stylistic features of the \Translation of the relative clause, the fundamental principle of minimizing the the Chinese sentence SVO distance. Restrictive relative clauses, if not complex relative clauses, can generally be translated into Chinese pre-modifier, so that its central words constitute a unit of information; But the abolition of restrictions on the restrictive clauses should generally be translated into Chinese independent clauses . Non-restrictive clauses can generally be
