中国人很喜欢红色,甚至称自己为“赤子”。红色在中国象征着权力和喜庆。很多朝代的官服是红色的;在清代,官帽上深浅不同的红色代表了不同的官位。另外,用于婚礼的双喜字是红色的。春节期间,老人们也会给小孩子们发红包,当做新年的礼物和祝福。

参考翻译:

Chinese and the Color of Red

We Chinese like the color of red, and even we call ourselves as Chizi, which means a patriot. In China, red represents the power and happiness. Officialrobes of many dynasties were red. In the QingDynasty, different shades of red on the official caps showed different rankings. Headlines of official documents are often printed in red. For that reason, it’s called “red-head documents”. Inaddition, the Chinese character signifying double happiness used for weddings is red. Duringthe Spring Festival, elder people will give Hongbao to the children as gifts and wishes for thenew year.

1.赤子:赤子的意思是热爱祖国的人,翻译时,可先用拼音,后补充解释,即 Chizi, which means a patriot。

2.官服:可译为official robe,因为古代的官服都是长袍类,如果用clothes 或者uniform都不够合理。

3.深浅不同的红色:译为shades of red, shade为名词,意为“深浅;色度”。

4.双喜字:按照其字面意思翻译即可,即Chinese character signifying double happiness。

5.红包:可直接用拼音Hongbao翻译,也可以译为red packet。
