On How To Handle The Fuzzy Information In Interpretation

Since the mid-1960s, the research on fuzzy language has been undertaken by scholars at home and abroad. Fuzzy linguistics research has been conducted from various aspects and a great number of related books and articles have been published. Scholars in China have combined the fuzzy linguistics with translation since 1980s, and a series of related articles or books have been presented since then. Fuzziness is one of the inherent features of a natural language. Fuzzy information exists almost at all levels of language forms and it plays a very important role in communication. However, each language has its own specific system of fuzzy information and different language speakers may understand the same fuzzy expression in divergent ways due to distinctive cultural background; therefore, the translatability limitation of fuzzy information is caused.The theory of equivalent effect demands that the relation between the target receptor and the target text should be the same as that between the source receptor and the source text. Nida also explains his"dynamic equivalence theory"as:"the relation of target language receptors to the target language text should be roughly equivalent to the relationship between the original receptors and the original text."The equivalent effect theory makes great contributions to the translation studies and practice and it provides much inspiration in the process of translation. Equivalent effect theory is now familiar to scholars engaged in the field of translation and many discussions on it have been carried out.Due to acceleration of globalization, interpretation has played an increasingly important role in the communication of different language speakers, and the research on interpretation should gain more and more attention from scholars accordingly. Nevertheless, among the current research work in the field of translation studies and fuzzy linguistics, many of them are concerned with the relationship between fuzziness...
