英媒报道:盘点机场那些雷人翻译

摘要

英国《每日邮报》20日专门盘点了一些无厘头国外机场的指示牌,上榜者往往让人觉得匪夷所思,不知所云,甚至有些让人啼笑皆非。记者发现,此次上榜的多是中国机场“中译英”闹的笑话。
“小心山体滑坡” (Landslide),这样的警示语出现在机场不要怀疑是不是放错了,其实原意只是想说“小心地滑”。报道称,这样的笑话不是少数,餐厅有“肉汁”(flesh juice) 、小心楼梯“裤裆”、不要将吸烟室“炸成灰”都是机场英文警示牌的雷言雷语。“当外国人在机场看到这些,也许会认为自己身处的不是机场,而是一个战场吧。”报道称。
报道指出,对于很多外国人来说,在国外机场往往会提心吊胆怕迷失方向,特别当一些指示牌是当地语言的时候。报道分析说,这些令人匪夷所思的翻译往往是由当地文化和语言差异造成的。据《法制晚报》

“雷人”的机场翻译

指示牌英文拼错了
广州读者李先生曾在广州新机场无意发现,几个指向行李寄存处的指示牌英文拼写均出了错,还有几个指示牌直接采取“中式英文”的译法。
英文拼写有误的指示牌都是指向行李寄存处的牌子,“行李寄存”(baggage storage)全部错为“baggage strage”,漏了一个英文字母“o”。“新机场是广州的窗口,如果启用后还出现这样的错误就有损广州的国际形象了。”李先生说。
指向“超大行李托运”方向的指示牌,则直接采用了“super bigbaggage deliver”这一“中式英文”。记者就此咨询了广州业余大学英语老师张先生,他表示:“虽然这一中式英文老外也能看得懂,但规范译法最好还是‘over weight baggage delivery’。”
