<P><b> 朱子家训翻译欣赏</b></P>
<P >朱子家训是我国古时的家庭礼教文化精华,使人通人事,明事理,而张香桐院士的译文无论从用词,达意,音韵等方面都堪称翻译的典范,现摘抄数篇供大家欣赏。</P>
<P > 一粥一饭,当思来之不易。
半丝半缕,恒念物力维艰。
The growing of rice and of grain
Think on whenever you dine;
Remember how silk is obtained
Which keeps you warm and looks fine.</P>
<P align=center><FONT face=宋体>宜未雨而绸缪,勿临渴而掘井。</FONT>
<FONT face=宋体>In periods of drought
Wise birds mend their nest
So when the clouds burst
They snugly may rest;
Never be the fool
Who starts to dig a well in the ground
When he wants a drink of water
And water can’t be found.</FONT></P><FONT face=宋体>
<P align=center>与肩挑贸易毋占便宜,
与贫苦亲邻须加温恤。
Bargain you not with the traveler who vends;
Share of your wealth with your neighbors and friends. <p></p></P>
<P align=center>居家戒争讼,讼则终凶;
处世戒多言,言多必失。
Don’t take into court your family disputes,
Unpleasant endings emerge from lawsuits;
To comport yourself well in society,
Restrain loose tongue’s impropriety.<p></p></P>
