翻译讲解
1.经典著作:翻译为classics即可,简单明了。
2.儒家哲学体系:可直译为Confucian philosophy system 或者a system of philosophy known as Confucianism,只是需要注意表意完整。
3.代表作:可译为representative work。representative为形容词,意为“典型的,有代表性的”。
4.哲学观和道德观:“观”即为“观点、看法”,所以可译为philosophy and moral outlook。
5.也影响着…道德观:由于前面的分句中已经提到了同样的内容,因而此处可以将其省略而不再重复译出,故可译为..that of the people of other Asian countries as well。
