上述译法,觉得都不够准确,不够精彩,没有把“折腾”的全部意思表达出来。这里推荐一个译法,感觉比较恰当:
. S; Q1 L6 ~& `- g6 O% Z
. u T9 e0 U7 T, h9 P avoid self-inflicted setbacks (不折腾)
4 I5 N2 a' V( X; j7 C Z2 D+ }/ s" x! i, k% R* X. a
原因是:
2 G7 \0 T9 v. t! u5 y8 a6 a
. u6 O# x; r1 ?0 ` p! k “self-inflicted” has the connotation of creating theunnecessarypain for one self.7 I9 E6 w8 }! B8 {% T/ S! J
+ f7 O- ?( c0 C! N) y/ t& b
折腾 in Hu"s speech has a strong connotation that such kindofsetback is self-seeking instead of being due to theinterferencefrom outside.! x7 `$ X5 f+ `" ]( @1 x
' t. M5 c1 ^4 u( N3 z. |9 S
“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. |
