[Abstract]:The translation practice text of this translation practice report is taken from the autobiographical novel when breathing into the Air by Paul Caranish, a famous American neurosurgeon. Paul tells about his childhood, his medical dreams, and his mental history and state of life after learning that he has advanced lung cancer. The book has distinctive language style and narrative characteristics of autobiographical novels, and involves a large number of medical technical terms, which has a certain guiding significance for medical English translation. The translator selects the first three chapters of the second part of the book, based on Eugene Nida's "functional equivalence" theory, and tries to achieve the translation standards of "faithfulness and smoothness" to complete translation practice. Through the analysis of typical cases in this translation practice, this report aims to explore the effective translation strategies of medical English and memoir autobiography by combining the translation theory with specific translation practice. This report consists of three parts: introduction, text and conclusion. The introduction summarizes the content and significance of the translation practice, and introduces the problems to be studied in the translation practice report. The body is the main body of this report, mainly divided into three chapters. The first chapter introduces the background of translation task, which is divided into three parts: the introduction of the author, the introduction of the work, the reason and significance of the selected topic. The second chapter is a description of the translation process, including three parts: pre-translation preparation, first draft translation, and proofreading. The third chapter is the case analysis, which is the focus of this report. The translator analyzes the medical technical terms and long difficult sentences in translation practice from four aspects: lexical, syntactic, textual and stylistic, as well as the translation strategies adopted in response to these problems, such as part-of-speech conversion, incremental translation and translation saving. Literal translation and free translation are expounded and analyzed. The conclusion summarizes the research content of the translation practice, shares the translator's experience and enlightens the translation study and work in the future.
