发布时间：2018-08-28 18:46

【摘要】：本文从目的论的角度探讨了联合利华公司茶类专利说明书的汉译过程。专利文献作为科技文献的一种类型,具有很高的参考价值和使用价值。它保护的不是具体的物质利益,而是抽象的知识产权,因此专利翻译显得尤为重要。但长期以来,大部分研究都是从词汇、语法和文本特征上着手,缺乏系统的理论支持。目的论从宏观角度为专利说明书翻译工作者确定了合理的翻译理论框架。其中“目的原则”指明了翻译方向,而“忠实原则”和“连贯原则”则为译者明确了翻译思路。联合利华作为全球知名的食品、日化品集团,非常注重在华的专利申请。本文以其茶类专利说明书英汉文本为研究对象,首先从整体上对专利说明书的结构、文本特点和功能进行了介绍。其后对原文和译文进行对比分析得出两者的异同点。继而结合实例分析了目的论视角下翻译专利说明书各部分应遵循的主要原则以及对应译本应符合的标准,并得出如下结论： 1)翻译技术背景部分时,译者应以目的原则为准,保证译文的客观性； 2)翻译发明详述部分时,译者应以连贯原则为准,使译文准确、可读性强、表达专业化； 3)翻译权利要求书时,译者应遵循忠实原则,力求译文在格式上与原文一致,表达准确并保留原文中的模糊性。最后通过案例分析提出了满足翻译标准的具体技巧,如分句、重组、增词法、减词法等。希望本文通过案例分析,能为专利说明书的汉译提供一定的参考价值。
[Abstract]:This paper discusses the translation process of Unilever tea patent specification from the perspective of Skopos theory. As a type of scientific and technological documents, patent documents have high reference value and use value. It protects not concrete material interests, but abstract intellectual property rights, so patent translation is particularly important. However, for a long time, most of the studies are based on lexical, grammatical and textual features, lacking systematic theoretical support. Skopos theory defines a reasonable theoretical framework for patent translators from a macro point of view. The Skopos principle points out the direction of translation, while the principle of faithfulness and coherence clarifies the translator's thinking of translation. Unilever as a world-renowned food, daily chemicals group, very focused on patent applications in China. In this paper, the English and Chinese text of the tea patent specification is taken as the research object. Firstly, the structure, features and functions of the patent specification are introduced. Then the author makes a comparative analysis of the original text and the translated text and finds out the similarities and differences between the two. Then it analyzes the main principles to be followed in translation of patent specification from the perspective of Skopos theory and the standards corresponding to the translation, and draws the following conclusions: 1) in the background part of translation technology; The translator should follow the Skopos principle to ensure the objectivity of the translation, 2) in the detailed part of the invention of translation, the translator should follow the principle of coherence to make the translation accurate, readable and professional. 3) the translator should follow the principle of faithfulness, strive for the consistency of the translation format with the original text, express accurately and retain the ambiguity in the original text. Finally, some specific techniques to meet the translation criteria, such as clause, recombination, lexical addition and subtraction, are put forward through case study. I hope this paper can provide some reference value for Chinese translation of patent specification through case study.
