a literal translation meaning in Chinese
逐词逐句直译(逐字的)
Examples
- This word is a literal translation from french
这个字是从法文直接翻译的。 - A literal translation is not always the closest to the original meaning
逐字翻译不一定最接近原义。 - ( d & c 17 : 2 ) ( how could he have translated without the plates , as his scribes said , if he was doing a literal translation of a physical object
( 《教义和圣约》第十七章第二节) (如果他像他的文书助理所说地一样是逐字逐句地从一个实际物件上面翻译的话,那他怎能不用页片就能翻译呢? ) - A faithful translation , however , should not be confused with a literal translation , the fidelity of a translation not excluding an adaptation to make the form , the atmosphere and deeper meaning of the work felt in another language and country
然而,正确的译文不应同逐字翻译混为一谈,因为翻译的忠实并不排除文字上的必要改变,以便使人能够用另一种语言在另一个国家体会到原作的形式、气氛及其内在含意。
