摘要

The issue of untranslatability has always been a hot topic. Compared with linguistic untranslatability, cultural untranslatability is relative. This paper analyzes the causes of cultural untranslatability and points out its relativity. With the enhancement of international communication, what is untranslatable today will be translated in future.%不可译性问题历来是人们探讨的热点，与语言不可译性相比，文化不可译具有相对性。通过分析文化不可译的成因，指出文化不可译存在相对性。随着国际交流的加强，目前存在的不可译现象终究会成为可译的。
