新西兰留学代写 盘点那些容易翻错的英文句子

之前翻译的时候,我也很容易陷入一种思维怪圈,因为英汉两者之间的语法逻辑不同,完全是两套不一样的系统,按照汉语的逻辑去翻译英文或者将汉语转化成英文就容易出错。其中,最容易入坑的莫过是否定词的英汉转化。比如 All the answers are not right.在翻译的时候,很容易按照中文的逻辑,一个个字眼对应下来翻译成“所有的答案都不对”,正确的译法是“不是所有的答案都是对的”如同汉语一样,英语中也会使用双重否定的手段去表达一些含义,否定词组成的各种短语彼此之间很类似,很容易会造成意义上或多或少的差异,比如这个句子曾经就难倒我了。He is no more able to read English than I am。不是“他比我更读不懂英文”而是“他跟我都读不懂英文”这里我列出了一些平常容易混淆的点:需要新西兰代写吗?

(5)no more than VS not more than 只不过,仅仅VS不超过,至多
