Question

求下面翻译成英文，急需

语言是文化、信息的载体，是人与人之间交流的

纽带。不同的语言可以表达不同的信息。《喜福会》

把中美文化的语言差异体现得淋漓尽致。电影中，

每代人都因为家庭纽带而聚在一起，但又因为语言

的差异和年龄的差距而彼此疏远。语言文化的差异

是两代人情感交流的一道无形的墙壁，阻隔了两代

人的交流与沟通。《喜福会》里的母亲们，既不会说

准确的汉语，也不会说准确的英语，只会说英汉结合

的语言。她们在用汉语说话的时候常常会冒出英

语，在用英语说话的时候又夹杂着汉语。她们的女

儿在美国长大、接受教育，会说流利的英语，尽管也

会说汉语，但是，在与自己的母亲进行交流时也存在

着一些困难。冲突与矛盾产生的主要原因在于，两

者的语言交流存在很大的差异。

表达情感的最重要的方式就是语言。在《喜福

会》中，由于母女之间没有相同文化背景的

语言，所以她们无法进行有效的情感交流。例如：当

蒋琳杜很自豪地对女儿提起她的家乡太原的时候，

女儿则认为母亲是在说台湾。“喂”，蒋琳杜大声喊

道，“我不是从台湾来的，我是在中国出生的，在太

原。”“噢，我以为你是在说台湾，这两个字发音差不

多。”女儿解释道。“发音完全不同，地方也完全不

同！”蒋琳杜生气地说，“那儿的人都梦想他们在中

国，我敢肯定如果你是中国人，你就永远无法将中国

从你脑海中抹去。”从这里可以看出，由于语

言的差异，母女之间的交流总是会存在很多的障碍。

久而久之，女儿会自觉地疏远母亲，母亲看到后又会

主动与女儿说话，女儿爱理不理的态度，让本来就很傲气的母亲很受伤，矛盾自然又会再次出现。中美

文化巨大的差异造成了母女对自我身份不同的认

同，这种认同最初是对立的，而语言成为了这种对立

的催化剂。中国文化-含蓄，间接的说话方式；美国文化-明确，直接的说话方式。 中国人习惯用含蓄、间接的方式说话。当他们和别人交流的时候，即使没有特别的表达他们的意思，他们仍然能够能够同样轻易并清楚地理解对方。在交流过程中，中国人高度重谦逊，但事实上他们只是想引起别人的注意来同样表达自己的谦逊。与中国人相反，美国人喜欢用语言直接的表达自己的想法，他们希望别人能够快速、清楚地了解自己的意愿，因此，人们不需要花时间去通过动作、面部表情等猜测别人的想法。例如，按照中国文化的习惯，主人总要对自己做的菜贬低一番，然后期待客人品尝之后的赞扬，期望听到客人说"谁说这菜难吃，这是我吃过的最好的吃的菜了"。美国人向来直率的表达自己的观点。中国的文化中，客人在主人家要客随主便，主人给倒酒才能喝，而不是自己想喝就倒着喝。客人即便是在看到自己喜欢吃的菜时，也不能在别人家里端起盘子往自己碗里拨菜，以此表示客人对主人的尊重。

For example, in accordance with the Chinese cultural habits, the master must do dish to a guest, and then look forward to taste after praise, expect to hear the guest says "who said this dish to eat, this is I had the best dishes".

Language is the carrier of culture, information, is the link of communication between people. Different language can express different information. "The Joy Luck Club" the language differences between Chinese and American cultures embodied most incisive. In the movie, every generation because of family ties together, but also because of the language difference and age difference and alienated from one another. The differences of language and culture is an invisible wall emotion exchange two generations, blocking the exchange and communication of the two generation. "The Joy Luck Club" in mothers, neither speak accurate Chinese, can't speak correct English, speak only English Chinese language. When they speak in Chinese often appear in English, speak in English with chinese. Their daughter grow up, received education in American, fluent in English, although also can speak Chinese, however, to communicate with his mother still exist some difficulties. The main reason lies in the conflicts and contradictions, there is a big difference between the two language exchange. Expression of emotion is the most important means of language. In "the Joy Luck Club", because do not have the same cultural background between mother and daughter of the language, so they can't communicate emotions effectively. For example: when Jiang Lindu is proud to bring her daughter when the hometown of Taiyuan, daughter think mother is in Taiwan. "Hello," Jiang Lindu shouted, "I am not from Taiwan, I was born in Taiyuan in China." "Oh, I thought you were in Taiwan, this two word pronunciation almost." Daughter explained. "The pronunciation is completely different, are totally different!" Jiang Lindu said angrily, "there are dreams in their Chinese, I bet if you are Chinese, you never will Chinese from your mind." From here we can see that, due to the differences between language, communication between them will always exist a lot of obstacles. In the course of time, will consciously alienated mother daughter, mother and daughter will see after the initiative to speak, daughter indifferent attitude, make originally very proud mother was injured, the contradiction between natural will appear again. Cultural differences between China and the United States caused the great mother of self identity, the identity is initially opposed, and the language became the catalyst of the opposition. China culture - subtle, indirect way of speaking; America culture - specifically, a direct way of speaking. Chinese used implicitly, indirect way. When they communicate with others, even without their express special, they can still be easily and clearly understand each other. In the course of the exchange, Chinese height weight of humility, but in fact they just want to cause the attention of others to also express their humility. Contrary to Chinese, Americans like to use language to express their own ideas, they want to be quick, a clear understanding of their own will, therefore, people don't need to spend time to go through gestures, facial expressions to guess the ideas of others. For example, in accordance with the Chinese cultural habits, the master must do dish to a guest, and then look forward to taste after praise, expect to hear the guest says "who said this dish to eat, this is I had the best dishes". Americans always straightforward to express their point of view. China culture, guests to the customer will be with the Lord in the house, the master to the wine to drink, not to drink it down with drink. The guest even see their love to eat vegetables, also cannot be in someone's home, end plate into his bowl call food, as the owner of the guests respect.
