摘要
预设是指说话者在说出某个特定句子时所进行的假设。预设现象分为逻辑、语义和语用三种。预设理论对翻译实践具有三点启示:翻译的过程就是对译文读者的知识、文化、心理特征等进行预设认知的过程;预设的动态性可以解释译文的多样性;恰当使用预设知识,可以使译文更简洁、连贯。
Presupposition refers to the assumptions made by the speaker prior to making an utterance. It usually falls under three types,logical, semantic, and pragmatic. The findings about presupposition imply that the process of translation is a presuming process about the knowledge state, cuhural and psychological characteristics of the readers; that the product of translation can pose various forms since presupposing as a cognitive behavior is dynamic ; and that a transition may become more concise and coherent if presupposition is properly applied.
