Abstract:Hypotaxis and parataxis are the two concepts which are put forward by Mr. Wang Li in the book Chinese Grammar Theory. English is a hypotaxis-prominent language while Chinese is parataxis-prominent. Chinglish refers to spoken or written English that is influenced by Chinese language and is commonly applied to ungrammatical or nonsensical English in Chinese in Chinese contexts, and may have pejorative or deprecating connotations. Therefore, this thesis, which is an attempt to study Chinglish in C-E translation, analyzes main forms and causes of Chinglish and also proposes ways how to reduce or avoid it with a view to bringing translation nearer to a higher standard, i.e, “faithfulness, smoothness and elegance”.
This thesis is divided into four chapters. The first chapter introduces Chinglish, hypotaxis and parataxis, the structure of the thesis. The second chapter analyzes the previous study on the relevant subject both at home and abroad. Chapter three analyzes the causes of Chinglish and put forward solutions to Chinglish from the perspective of hypotaxis and parataxis. Chapter Four summarizes this thesis and points out the limitations and suggestions for improvement of this thesis.

摘要:形合和意合是王力先生在《中国语法理论》一书中提出的两个概念,英语重“形合”,中文则重“意合”。中式英语是指中国英语学习者与使用者由于受母语的干扰和影响,硬套汉语规则和习惯,在英语交际中出现的不合规范或不合英语文化习惯的畸形英语。因此本文从形合意合的角度,对汉语和英语在词汇、句法两个方面进行对比分析,总结出两者的差异,从而对如何避免“中式英语”提出科学而又可行的解决办法,使译文更贴近“信、达、雅”的翻译标准。
本文共分为四章。第一章简单介绍中式英语,形合与意合的基本概念,以及本文的结构。第二章对中式英语和形合与意合的国内外研究现状进行了述说。第三章从形合与意合的角度分析中式英语的成因并提出解决中式英语的方法。第四章对全文进行分析总结并提出不足。
