9、你想要火鸡，就拿去吧！鹧鸪虽小一些，味道却很鲜美；如果你喜欢鹧鸪，我就拿火鸡了。”印第安人一听就明白了，于是针锋相对地说：“你一直讲火鸡，现在让我也讲讲火！”于是talk turkey演变成了“打开窗户说亮话，谈正经事，坦诚地说话”的意思了。如：1.If you are willing to talk turkey, the problem between us can be easily settled.如果你愿意实实在在地说话，那么我们之间的问题就可以很容易地解决。2.Generally he is an easygoing person, but when it comes to rel
10、igious belief he talks turkey.一般来说，他是一个随和的人，但一谈到宗教信仰，他就正经起来。have a turkey on (ones) back喝醉酒red as turkey cock气得满面通红swell like a turkey cock气势汹汹的发作Thanksgiving dinner感恩节正餐Thanksgiving turkey感恩节火鸡中国小吃，外国菜名中式早点：烧饼clay oven rolls；油条fried bread stick；韭菜盒fried leek dumplings；水饺boiled dumplings；蒸饺steamed d

13、Crispy bun slices鸡翅Chicken wing大腰子Big kidney(lamb)骨肉相连Cartilage&chicken传统中文菜名的爆笑英文翻译语言之间的互译本来就不是容易的事，要再碰上点本国特有的文化，简直有点翻译不通。直译绝对行不通，意译又导致语义不明确。如何在这两者之间求取一个平衡，就成了非常难搞定的事儿。想当年的鲁迅先生，虽然文才了得，但在翻译这上头，也做了个不尴不尬。可见翻译绝非易事啊。中国的饮食文化堪称一绝，许多烹饪方法与食材都是外国人闻所未闻见所未见的。所以在菜名的翻译上，常常有笑话产生。前几年称北京旅游局对外发布了一个中文菜名英文译法，将大部分的中文菜名
14、英文译法统一起来，在各大饭店推广，以便外国游客能真的看懂看全。这也算一件好事。具体到每个译法上看，有些菜名的翻译虽然是委屈求全，但要求更好恐怕也有点强人所难了。毕竟，语言文化上很多精髓都是只可意会不可言传的。下面就拿一些常见的菜名来看看。1直译类，这类比较简单锅贴 pot sticker(这个翻译非常直接，锅就是锅，贴就是贴)酸辣汤 hot&sour soup(又辣又酸的汤)春卷 spring rolls(春天的卷)柠檬牛肉 lemon beef炒杂菜 mixed vegetable(混合在一起的菜)叫化鸡 beggars chicken(乞丐鸡)四喜丸子 four joy meatballs
15、(四个快乐的肉球)清蒸鱼 steam fish火锅 hot pot(热锅)烤鸭 roasted duck可以看到以上一些翻译，没有涉及文化内涵，而仅仅涉及制作方法或者口味的，似乎比较容易成功，而类似“四喜丸子”这样的菜名译法，看起来令人忍俊不禁。2.音译类馄饨 won ton叉烧 char shiu炒面 chow mein捞面 lo mein炒河粉 chow fun豆腐 tofu麻婆豆腐 marboh tofu从这类翻译中我们可以看出中国文化远走他乡，在异国生根，被异国文化所包容接纳的一面。3曲译类中国菜名中一些非常有诗意的元素，用英文实在无法体现出来。白云凤爪 chicken leg(鸡脚)四宝豆腐羹 steam tofu soup
