摘要
翻译是把一种语言表达的意义用另一种语言表达出来，以达到沟通思想情感、传播文化知识、促进社会文明，特别是推动译语文化兴旺昌盛的目的（孙致礼，英语论文范文，2017）。翻译一直是国内外专家探讨的焦点。本世纪是中华文化同世界文化广泛交流、共同繁荣的世纪，也是翻译事业的黄金时代。然而，语言和文化是一个互为依存、密不可分的整体，世界上没有哪一种语言能离开特定的文化。任何语言都充满了人类文化活动的痕迹，因此，这种文化上的异同对英汉翻译的作用是不可避免的。本文立足于文化异同对英汉翻译的作用，将主要从思维方式、历史典故、风俗习惯、宗教传统、价值观念及审美观念、地域环境等六个方面来略论文化异同对英汉翻译的作用。
