2014年6月英語六級翻譯真題之翻譯

　翻譯原文：

中文熱詞通常反映社會變化和文化，有些在外國媒體上愈來愈流行。例如，土豪和大媽都是老詞，但已獲取了新的意義。

土豪以前指欺壓佃户和僕人的.鄉村地主，現在用於指花錢如流水或喜歡炫耀財富的人，也就是説，土豪有錢，但是沒有品位。大媽是對中年婦女的稱呼，但是現在特指不久前金價大跌時大量購買黃金的中國婦女。

土豪和大媽可能會被收入新版的牛津(OXford)英語詞典，至今約有120中文加進了牛津英語詞典，成了英語語言的一部分。

　譯文二：

Chinese hot words are usually been regarded as a reflection of the social change and a reflection of some certain culture phenomena, some of which are quite popular in the foreign media. Tuhao and dama, for example, are both old words, but in nowadays, they have gained the new meanings。

Tuhao was used to refer to Local tyrants or village landlords who oppressed tenants and servants before, but now, the word is used to refer the people who spend money like water or the people who like to show off their wealth. It means that Tuhaos are rich, but they have no taste. Dama is the appellation for middle-aged woman, but now it is used to describe the Chinese women who rushed to purchase gold when the gold priced plunged sharply not long ago。

Tuhao and dama are likely to be included into the new edition of Oxford Dictionary. Up to now, about 120 Chinese words have been included into Oxford Dictionary, and these words have woven themselves into the texture of the English language。
