Homer sometimes nods for 2) (also snoring, Homer sometimes nods),
I 3), the ring out the fingers are already someone pushing you most, although lost ring finger (; while still in May,).
In translating a method, if the adoption literal translation ability accurate expression the original text meaning should adopt literal translation possibly;If the literal translation can't reappear originally abundant content of the byword, can adopt liberal translation,on an equal footing translation,the literal translation and liberal translation combine together etc. the translation method, then can compare the poetic charm of the reservation original text so completely, make to translate the text image vivid.
The underneath introduces the translation method of English byword in brief:
(A),Transliterate a method
The so-called literal translation method is to point under the sistuation that do not disobey to translate the written language speech norm and do not don't cause the mistake association of thought, reserving the parable image of English byword and the method of the race,local color in translate the text.The byword that adopts literal translation most likely is English and Chinese language part of the parable and the image aspect basic homology in byword, ising clear at a glance after being a literal translation perhaps, being unlikely to produce a misunderstanding.[16] such as:The Pactice makes perfect(practice make perfect); The Walls have ears;(beware of eavesdroppers) The New-born calves make little of tigers;(just born cow 犊 not afraid tiger)The A fire on city wall brings disaster to the fish in the moat.(the city gate catch fire, bring disaster to fish in the moat)[17]
(Two), Liberal translation method
The expression method of some English 谚s is because of implying English language nation the special history literary reference or the cultural background, if literal translation, then translating a text may lead long strong false assumption, also ising comprehend by Chinese reader not easily.Therefore at usually under circumstance abandon the expression form of the original language, the adoption liberal translation, then can avoid under the some condition because of literal translation but cause of drag along mire to take a water, result in a misunderstanding etc. corrupt practice.For example, Achilles'the s heel if literal translation is"the heel of the 阿 gram 勒斯 " and can't let the most people comprehend, but translate"unique fatal weakness" of its implicit meaning of also more fitting.[18] such example still has:
1)In fair weather prepare for the foul.If translate"a clear sky want to defend cloudy day", translate"had and suffer from" rather or"vigilant in peace time" or"take preventive measures".
2)Murder will out.If translate"the premeditated murder leakses out after all must", translate"the truth will out" rather.
3)When Greek meets Greek, then comes the tug of war.If translate"the Greek meet Greek, certainly have a good 斗 ", translate for"two males compete with each other, its 斗 is necessarily strong" rather.
4)Every man has a fool in his sleeve.If translate"all pack a simpleton in the everyone sleeves", translate for"the everyones all have careless time" rather.[19]

The byword is the science summary of the regulation and the production life experience that the crowd is for long time to the social phenomena and the natural phenomena.British and American and national people similar to of the Chinese people existence experience and experience is also alike in not a few aspects to the understanding of the world, this make two races of the byword have very great likeness.Some English bywords and the Chinese language byword agree without previous consultation on the contents, having a same content, make use of or the image of[with] great body homology, or the parable and rhetoric of[with] great body homology to elaborate same truth, make use of synonymous Chinese language byword in this kind of case to translate English byword"can make to translate a text on the other hand more fluent, on the other hand and more easy for translate a text a reader to comprehend and accept."(PING2 QING4 HUA , 1995:144)such as:
1)the Diamond cut diamond;(the chess meet opponent)
2)the Two can play the game;(the 孤掌 difficult 鸣 )
3)the To fish in troubled waters;(the 浑 water touch fish)

Sometimes while translate some English bywords, the pure literal translation make reader not the apprehensibility its meaning, and the liberal translation can't express tangibly, either originally the meaning of the byword.The method that can adopt literal translation,liberal translation to combine together at this time carries on a translation to make up literal translation difficult reach an idea, liberal translation the shortage of the difficult vivid portrayal.Translate the text can transliterate its typeface meaning, ordering again an implicit meaning, making to translate the text image vivid, receive the result for put life into by period.[21] for example:
1) The Cut your coat according to your cloth;(the quantity cloth cut dress, within our means)
2)the Even Homer sometimes nods;(when the Homer also has nap, a wise man is thousand 虑s, having necessarily a lose)
3)the If I have lost the ring, the yet the fingers are still there(although the ring throw to lose, the finger is still at;Stay green mountain at, not afraid have no firewood to burn).
Methods in the translation, if we adopt the literal meaning of the original text can be accurately should maximize the use of literal translation; should not reproduce if the literal translation of the rich connotation of the original proverb can be used free translation of such translation, literal translation and free translation Translate combination methods, in order to more intact the original charm, so asked a vivid image.
