Skill IIChoosing words Choosing words Most of the words in the two languages are partially corresponded. So when choosing words, we must consider the following: collocation, context and sense Collocation Open (adj.): open wires, open speech, an open book, an open question, in the open air historical fabric Fabric: structure of sth. eg. fabric of society 历史的结构 felt moral, cultural existence Felt: can be felt. Existence: state of existing (being) 可感受到的道德和文化存在 Collocation landscapes of experience Landscape: (picture of) inland scenery 经验的风景—经验的积累，生活经验 idiomatic, symbolic, communal reference Reference: referring (L: referent) …的参照物（参考书），…的东西 习惯表达法、象征表达法、能唤起集体意识的表达法—惯用法、象征语、约定俗成的表达法 a thin wash Wash: thin liquid 薄薄的液体—细细的河流--？ artificial language 人造语言 Wording through context 1 What is context? Context mainly refers to that before and after a word, a sentence or a text. It also includes time, place, cultural and background. Context of the passage What is the passage about (background)? About language use (language and culture, language form and meaning, language translating…) What is the main idea? So much that is being said is correct, so little is right. Wording through context 2 The externals of English are being acquired by speakers wholly alien to the historical fabric, to the inventory of felt moral, cultural existence embedded in the language. Externals: 外表、外在的东西、皮毛 Embedded: 内在，内含于，深植于 Felt moral, cultural existence: 只可意会的道德观和文化，只可意会的道德和文化内涵 Inventory: 存货？(various) Historical fabric: 历史背景（渊源、经纬） Wording through context 3 Analyze the following translations 英语的语言规则被那些对英语的历史背景一无所知的人所掌握，可他们对深植于英语中的那些只可意会的道德和文化内涵却毫无感知。 学习英语的人多半只学到英语的皮毛，对英语内含的历史背景以及只可意会的道德和文化意义却一窍不通。 那些不了解英语的历史渊源，和其中隐含的道德观及文化的人，只能习得其皮毛。 学习英语，若对其历史经纬陌生，对其衍生的道德观不了解，亦无知于语言所内蕴的文化，终究学不到家。 Wording through context 4 The landscapes of experience, the fields of idiomatic, symbolic, communal reference which give to the language its specific gravity, are distorted in transfer or lost altogether.
