《美国通讯工作协会与棕榈滩县之间的劳动管理协议》翻译报告

摘要

本翻译实践报告基于《美国通信工作协会与棕榈滩县的劳动管理协议》的翻译实践，该协议从多角度规定了雇员应享有的劳工权益与履行的义务。由于近些年来雇员的维权意识日益增强，而企业在雇员权益规定方面尚未成熟，导致了雇员和用人单位的矛盾纠纷时有发生。故此源文本可以对我国用人单位提供一定的借鉴意义。源文本广泛运用了被动语态。此翻译报告通过分析法律英语文本中被动语态翻译的难点问题，结合实例以及前人的总结，探究了被动语态的具体翻译技巧。根据尤金奈达提出的“动态对等”翻译理论，英语中被动语态汉译时，要首先实现“读者反应对等”，同时也要注重“形式对等”。经过对源文本中被动句实例分析，报告中总结出了四种翻译技巧：(1)译成汉语主动句；(2)译成带有“被”、“遭”、“由”等带有明显被动标记的汉语被动句；(3)译成无明显被动标记的汉语被动句；(4)译成汉语无主句。本报告最后总结了本次翻译实践中的经验与不足，希望对从事法律英语翻译研究的专业人士有所裨益。
