5 I: U, P/ `; P 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:& Y% _, P4 r# C& `

3 X3 d* l/ H& R1 m: ^ “self-inflicted” has the connotation of creating theunnecessarypain for one self.

4 z) l2 J3 ~" ]" c 折腾 in Hu"s speech has a strong connotation that such kindofsetback is self-seeking instead of being due to theinterferencefrom outside.* r# S: \# V4 P- E& N" S/ N7 l
( P2 ?! c6 A7 ~: u “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. |
