Doug Bowman离职激起千层浪啊翻译到底考不靠谱？
#tag: google, English, translation
看看这篇文章，翻译得好像是很有趣，没有直译的那种僵硬，但感觉文章多少有点变成翻译者的了，掺杂了太多翻译者的喜好和理解，自然原文里的那种原味就淡了些。譬如”被称之为设计师的倒霉孩子”，原文是 none of them，这个”倒霉”感觉也许原作者想读者去体会，但翻译者体会到了就翻译出来，模糊的东西被翻译得清晰化； “daring designs”被译为”有价值的设计”更是如此，甚至歪曲，也许原作者还客观；”high-up, respected leadership positions”被翻译成”有实权的领导位置”，感觉具体变抽象。当然这些只是我的个人感觉，并非批评译者翻译得不好，其实还是挺有趣。只是想讨论下阅读翻译的文章到底考不靠谱，我感觉始终有Gap，甚至误解。
