3、的方法通过各种传播媒体对产品、劳务或观念等信息的非人员介绍及推广。”随着人类社会的进步，经济发展大步向前，越来越多的贸易往来走向国际，作为经济全球化发展的标志之一，汽车广告在人们的日常生活中扮演着越来越重要的角色。汽车广告翻译的成功与否更是直接决定了产品在目的市场上的销售力度。国内关于汽车广告的研究多以传播学和营销学的角度进行的。鲜有从语言翻译角度进行研究。文本主要以汽车广告翻译为研究对象，以功能对等理论为指导思想，分为三大部分进行论述。第一部分，广告语言和汽车广告入手，研究汽车广告对现代社会生活的意义。第二部分，以功能对等为理论依据，具体介绍这一翻译理论。第三部分，结合功能对等理论及翻译原则
4、与方法，从直译与意译、套译与创译等方法体现汽车广告翻译。与此同时，本文将列举大量的成功或失败广告翻译例子，从关注文化差异、进行文化转换、增强广告情感美、体现人文关怀等方面进一步说明。总的来说，广告翻译最大的特点是说服消费者采取行动实施购买行为。这与奈达的“功能对等”理论相符，即目的语读者对目的语的反应与原文读者对原文的反应在一定程度上是一样的。希望通过本文的论述，能够有助于我们掌握汽车广告特色，找到合适的英汉翻译策略，提高中国汽车品牌在国外的影响力和竞争力。关键词：汽车广告翻译；功能对等理论；翻译策略ITitle: A Study of Automobile Advertisement Tra

16、omobile Advertisement Translation from Functional Equivalence.Chapter One IntroductionAdvertisement was derived from a Latin word, advertere. It means a way that can be used to arouse public attention to something, and influence their behavior. As a special language mode, advertisement has a long hi
17、story. It is said that commercial advertisement appeared at British newspaper in the early 1600s. In the process of economic globalization and integration, countries all over the world have inevitably become a part of the world economy system. During international economic exchange, the material exc
18、hanges which are represented by goods become one of the most important things. Therefore, advertisement translation plays an important role in the international trade. As we all know, USA is called a country on wheels. It shows the importance of automobile industry. With the development of economy a
19、nd the improvement of peoples living standard, automobile has become very popular in our daily life. And the automobile advertisement translation problems emerge followed on it. The famous American translation theorist Eugene A. Nida had came up with the theory of functional equivalence in 1969. He
20、gave the definition of translation as follows.Translation consists in reproducing in the receptor language the closest natural equivalence of source language message, first in terms of meaning and secondly in terms of style.1Thus, the translator should obey translation principles and methods, and pa
21、y attention to the factor of culture. A successful advertisement can gain enormous benefits. At the same time, it can promote culture exchange and win the favor of consumers. On the contrary, a failed advertisement will not only get the desired result, but also make consumers feel confused, and lose
22、 interest in the product.Automobile advertisement translation is not only related to product reputation, sales volume and economic benefits, but to some extent also reflects the cultural quality of the country and the nation. 2 Therefore, translators need to pay attention to the response of the targ
23、et readers.The whole thesis will be divided into seven chapters. The first chapter is the introduction and outline of the paper. The second chapter is literature review. The third chapter is advertisement translation and automobile advertisement translation. It consists of two parts, discussing adve
24、rtisement and automobile advertisement. The fourth chapter is the influence of different culture. It studies on values, taboos, customs, and religions. The fifth chapter is functional equivalence theory, mainly about four parts. It discusses from Nidas functional equivalence theory and some problems
25、. The sixth chapter is translation methods for automobile advertisement. It discusses several methods of advertisement translation, such as literal translation, free translation, loan translation and creative translation. Last chapter is the conclusion part. This part draws a conclusion of the resea
26、rch and some suggestions and implications are given based on the findings of the study. . Chapter Two Literature ReviewPeople have various definitions of advertisement for a long time. Almost without exception, they think that translation is the core part of international sales. It bears the busines
27、s profit, and cross-culture communication. As the symbol of global economic, automobile advertisement translation becomes one of the most important things to enter international market. Therefore, translators need to pay much attention to customers response.This essay will focus on the automobile ad
28、vertisement translation. And it makes an analysis of automobile advertisement function and significance. In order to promote the development of the pluralistic society and enhance cross-cultural exchange, it has a great important value to understand the advertisement translation. Thus, this essay, t
29、argeting at improving translation level and promoting cross-cultural communication, makes a close analysis of motor advertisement expressions, including the definition, the culture difference between east and west, the translation theory of functional equivalence, and the translation strategies base
30、d on Nidas functional equivalence theory.It has a long history of the study on the advertisement translation. Many scholars have made deep research on the translation of advertisement and generally formed their own theories which have been accepted by the translation circle. These researches can be
31、divided into three categories, the research on the culture difference between east and west in advertisement translation, the influence of marketing in advertisement translation, the influence of economics and finance and so on. It is referred to many books about advertisement. Whereas, there are mo
32、st of scholars put their emphasis on the influence of culture difference. It can be summarized as follows.Firstly, the influence of culture difference between east and west. This part refers to history and the way of thinking. Secondly, advertisement has influence on marketing. This part mentioned t
33、he study of marketing and the study of advertisement are closely related. It is applied to everything these days. Thirdly, advertisement has impact on economics. For this part, many scholars start to analyze various factors of the relationship between advertisement and globalization. And they come u
34、p with some strategies of advertisement.There are many researches in China and overseas. They study the advertisement in different ways and from different angles. Different with them, in this thesis the author pointed to the methods of automobile advertisement translation.In this article, it focuses
35、 on advertisement translation methods under the guidance of functional equivalence. According to functional equivalence theory, translators choose the best translation methods during the automobile advertisement translation process. And there are mainly four translation methods.The first translation
36、 method is literal translation. We use this method when we can find the equivalent expressions in both the Chinese and the English. Original advertisement: New Audi A4: We would never say the new Audi A4 is the best in its class. We dont have to.Translation:我们根本不必说新型奥迪A4是同类车中最好的，没这个必要。Original adver
37、tisement: BMW: Sheer driving pleasure.Translation:宝马汽车：纯粹的驾驶乐趣。The second translation method is free translation. It can make a person in different country have beautiful vision of products. For example,Original advertisement: Volvo: For life, life.Translation:沃尔沃：关爱生命，享受生活。The third translation met
38、hod is loan translation. Make customers have a same reflection.Original advertisement: Mitsubishi: Not all cars are created equal.Translation:三菱汽车：并非所有的汽车都有相同的品质。The fourth translation method of my thesis is creative translation. That means when you want to translate, you have to understand the usag
39、e and its cultural connotation and know clearly the real meaning, symbolic meaning and deeper meaning.Original advertisement: BMW: To protect others, first protect yourself.Translation:宝马：防范至上。Above all, if we want to translate the advertisement clearly, the most important thing is that we should ke
40、ep the same function of original advertisement and translation in mind. “People should know the purpose of translation”. 3 From where the author stands, the development of translation cannot rely on its own. Instead, it is developing with the economy, culture, and any respect of the society. To tran
41、slate the best writings, we should combine the theory and practice. . Chapter Three Advertisement and Automobile Advertisement3.1 The definition and characteristics of advertisement Most of scholars think advertisement contains a lot of things, and has many implications. There are many different vie
42、ws from different persons who have invested in advertisement. Weil Basher made a summary of those different views. “Advertisement is a kind of commercial behavior. Advertisers and marketers are using it to make profits through the mass media. And they hope customers can accepted and believed the inf
43、ormation of products.American Marketing Association gives a definition of it. “Advertisement is the non-personal communication usually paid for and persuasive in nature about products, services or ideas by identified sponsors through the various media.” We can give the definition of advertisement la
44、nguage in both broad sense and narrow sense. For broad sense part, advertisement language is various linguistic that uses in advertisement communication. It consists of pure linguistic means and non-linguistic means. As for narrow sense part, advertisement is mere language and literary device that u
45、sing in advertisement communication.From the above definitions, we can know the most basic function of advertisement was provided information to audience. Except spreading information and arousing peoples desire to buy the product, it also can help to establish a good brand image. Overall, advertise
46、ment has educational function, cultural function, social function and economic function. In order to achieve these functions, G.N Leech put forward an abbreviation principle called “AIDA”. It means attention, interest, desire, and action. 4 He thought that a good advertisement should arouse peoples
47、attention and awaken the potential interest. Then it caused their desire to buy the advertisement products. Finally, people put their desire into buying behavior.Advertisers often use several of media to transfer information. The automobile advertisement also use the same way. Motor producer usually promoting sales through different media, such as TV, advertisement, radio, poster, magazine and internet.3.2 Automobile advertisement languageIt was not until 20th century that the first car was born.
