1、翻翻译技巧：技巧：词序序调整法整法英汉两种语言中主要成分主语、谓语、宾语或表语的语序大体一致，皆遵循“主语+谓语+宾语（或表语）的规则。但由于表达习惯和排列规则上存在种种差异，各种定语的位置和各种状语的次序在英汉语言中则有许多不同之处。汉语：他出生于北京。（主-谓-地点状语）英语：He was born in Beijing. （主-谓-地点状语）汉语：他正在卧室里睡觉。（主-地点状语-谓）英语：He is sleeping in the bedroom. （主-谓-地点状语）这就要求在英汉翻译中对词序加以必要的调整或改变，以便使译文更加通顺、自然。下面着重探讨英汉翻译中需要调整词序的几种情况
2、：定语、状语、插入语、倒装结构、平行成分。定语词序的调整英语中的定语既可以由单词担当，也可以由短语或从句充任，既可以置于所修饰的中心词之前，又可以位于所修饰的中心词之后。汉语的定语一般放在所修饰的中心词之前。e.g. something important （后置）重要的事情（前置）如果英语中名词前的定语太多，译文则不宜完全前置，因为汉语不习惯在名词前用过多的定语。e.g. a little, yellow, ragged beggar （前置）一个要饭的，身材矮小，面黄肌瘦，衣衫褴褛（后置）This is the only reference book available here on t

4、的每个人深受感动。他想找一个可靠的人帮忙做这项工作。他是最早注意到这一问题的英语语法学家之一。The advertisements in newspapers and TV and radio broadcasts announce to the public the news of great bargains and sales.报纸、电视和广播的广告向公众发布廉价商品和大甩卖的消息。状语词序的调整1.单词作状语英语中单词作状语修饰形容词或其他状语时，通常放在它所修饰的形容词或状语前面，这一点与汉语相同。He was very active in class （前置）他在班上很活跃。（前置
5、）英语中单词作状语修饰动词时，一般放在动词之后，而在汉语里则放在动词之前。Modern science and technology are developing rapidly.（后置）现代科学技术正在迅速发展。（前置）英语中表示程度的状语在修饰状语时可前置也可后置，而在汉语中一般都前置。He is running fast enough. （后置）他跑得够快的了。（前置）状语词序的调整2.短语作状语英语中短语作状语可放在被修饰的动词之前或之后，译成汉语时则大多数放在被修饰的动词之前，但也有放在后面的。Seeing this, some of us became very worried.
6、（前置）看到这种情况，我们有些人心里很着急。（前置）I remember having seen him somewhere.He is a responsible man in spite of his shortcomings.There isnt such a word in English so far as I know.Send us a message in case you have any difficulty.我记得在哪儿见过他。他尽管有缺点，却是一个负责的人。据我所知，英语里并没有这样一个词。万一有什么困难，请给我一个信。 一个句子中同时出现几个状语时的词序调整 英语：方

9、t.Our society has changed and so have the people in it.Hardly had he finished when someone rose to refute his points.有些事情我们高兴牢记，有些事，我们乐得忘却。社会变了，人也变了。他还没说完，就有人起来驳斥他的论点。并列成分的词序调整英语中并列成分的词序一般按照逻辑上的轻重、前后、因果或部分-整体的顺序安排，而汉语通常将较大、较强、较突出的成分前置。elementary and secondary schools heal the wounded and rescue the
