在网上收集了几种译法：供各位参考，希望起到抛砖引玉的作用：1 M; J. K) g: D& a& a- ~: j: r6 u

1、don"t flip flop (别翻来倒去，朝三暮四)* m% n8 [+ _& R3 A7 X

2、don"t get sidetracked (别走岔路) " k7 L0 @( V9 Q3 u 3 D1 N* r& F" e# J& t 3、don"t sway back and forth (别反复) 2 c' y- `6 U2 O$ E . e9 T9 m4 |7 k9 A0 k) I* a 4、no dithering(不踌躇) 3 b+ a7 g2 ~7 L3 U$ |( F( ~ * D: ]! d, E9 o( o$ O( d$ e 5、no major changes (没有重大变化) : v4 f. J) o: l! S- O) f m+ `+ I' D8 W

“self-inflicted” has the connotation of creating theunnecessarypain for one self. & ]6 m1 a- W& `" c) B! K+ P8 I& i2 l2 j
折腾 in Hu"s speech has a strong connotation that such kindofsetback is self-seeking instead of being due to theinterferencefrom outside.$ u; g* U3 h% Z( I' {
( V& [7 c4 }! R* H “Setback” is a much better word than “trouble”, whichanunseasoned translator would like to use in the firstinstance.“Setback” especially refers to the obstacle ordifficultyencountered in achieving a strategic goal.
还不折腾呢！5 v X7 D- b$ [% u! Y# X/ b
学会不要太理会政客的言论才是不折腾得开始！9 S8 s+ x! x7 i" m s3 k
为了一个词已经够折腾的了！. s) z: J7 c$ D. t+ F1 F0 J
如果再要翻译成法语，德语，柬埔寨语等等，那到底是要折腾呢还是不折腾呢？
