如何翻譯里約奧運(yùn)中傅園慧所說的“洪荒之力”？

據(jù)1979年版《辭海》，第925頁在“洪”的字條下有對(duì)“洪荒”一詞的解釋。

【洪荒】謂混沌、聣昧的狀態(tài)，也指遠(yuǎn)古時(shí)代。謝靈運(yùn)《三月三日侍宴西池》詩(shī)：詳觀記牒，洪荒莫傳。

這不是現(xiàn)代人發(fā)明的詞匯，但洪荒之力這個(gè)詞卻是近幾年因?yàn)橐徊烤W(wǎng)絡(luò)熱播古裝劇而火起來的，大意就是指是如天地初開之時(shí)這種足以毀滅世界的力量。

聽到這里，學(xué)習(xí)英語的各位同學(xué)認(rèn)為應(yīng)該如何翻譯呢？

報(bào)紙China Daily的報(bào)道中，是這樣寫的：

When asked whether she held back for the final， Fu replied， \"No， I utilized my' prehistorical' power.\" What she meant was that she had spared no efforts in the semifinal.

根據(jù)話，洪荒之力被翻譯成“prehistorical power”，基本是根據(jù)字典意思進(jìn)行的直譯。而CCTV NEWS的記者也采用了這種翻譯，只不過改變了時(shí)態(tài)。在微博中，記者寫道：

A new Internet meme has emerged after Chinese swimmer Fu Yuanhui reacted exaggeratedly to her personal best performance in Rio 2016 women's backstroke semi-final.\" I've been utilizing prehistorical powers，\" she told CCTV reporter. Her comment has also become part of the meme.”
