Abstract
The “Government Work Report” contains many Chinese-specific political terms that are formed in Chinese contexts. In the translation of foreign propaganda, it plays an important role in the mutual understanding and communication bridge between China and foreign countries to enhance the quality of Chinese-specific political terms’ translation. From the perspective of Relevance Theory, this study takes the Chinese and English versions of GWR in the last seven years (2010-2016) as the corpus. And it deeply analyzes the principles and strategies of the C-E translation of Chinese-specific political terms in GWR. Translators should follow the principles of fidelity, pursing optimal relevance, and achieving optimal contextual effects, and use strategies of literal translation, literal translation plus annotation, amplification, and free translation while translating the Chinese-specific political terms. Besides, this study provides a new perspective for the study of C-E translation of Chinese-specific political terms. What’s more, it helps to improve the quality of translation of Chinese-specific political terms to make a good foreign propaganda.
