(对不起，我把字典忘在家里了) 这是按照汉语的字面意思来表达，动词“forget”在表示“忘记带某物”时，不与地点状语连用。该句正确表达是“I left my dictionary at home.”,C.要了解西方国家的文化和风土人情,强调了解中西文化差异才能使交际有效,如：Jack is a green hand at doing this work. (杰克做这种工作没有经验)这里“green hand”意思是“生手”、“没有经验”，而不是“绿色的手”之意。England是个岛国，船是重要交通工具，为保养船只，常用与海水一样的绿色油漆来漆船。一个不熟练的油漆工，工作时常会双手粘满油漆。了解了这一背景，“green hand”之意就不喻自明。又如：Smith can do nothing in the company because he is just a small potato there. (史密斯在这家公司起不了什么作用，因为他在那里是个小人物)“a small potato”是“小人物”之意，而非“小土豆“的意思。只有了解西方文化，才会理解这种修辞的意义。,D.Keeping a good dictionary at hand 酸奶 sour milk (The milk must have gone bad); yoghurt 宣传部 *propaganda department; department in charge of publicity,E.Developing Pragmatic Competence Translators pragmatic ability is part of their communicative competence.It comprises the ability to use language appropriately according to the context.More often than not, making a pragmatic error in a Chinglish sentence is far more seriou
