Pursing the identity in contents and neglecting the aesthetic connotations and cultural differences encoded in different forms will blot the creation of the author of the source text, and on the other hand, mix up the difference between cultures, and cause unnecessary cultural misunderstanding. Translation should give consideration to two things,one is that it should aim at intelligibility, the other is that it should retain the original style.展开更多

There are eight specific ingredients of Communicution within the context of intentional communication. Encoding and decording have a direct link to the effectiveness of communication. People from diffrent culture may use the same language symbols but diffrent systems of convention to encode and decode message so misunderstanding or conflicts most frequently occur in intercultural communication as a result of their ingnorance of each other’s cultural background.展开更多

Chinese people are the main force of international communication in the future and we will shoulder the important duty of spreading Chinese culture. So it is very important to cultivate people's competence of intercultural communication. The competence refers to not only the language itself but also the bilateral cultures. The paper firstly implies the significance of intercultural awareness under the background of"Belt and Road"strategy. The second part is related to the literature reviewof intercultural communication. And it goes to the achievements of "Belt and Road"and the strategies of cultivating intercultural consciousness. According to the research,one point should be clear,that is,the cultivation of cultural consciousness is very important in intercultural communication in the progress of"Belt and Road".展开更多
