The Nomenclature and English Translation of Emergency Language Services Terminology under COVID-19 Pandemic

WANG Li-fei & SUN Jiang-wei

Abstract:Since the global outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, emergency language services have become a hot topic among linguistic academia. After categorization and summary of the related terms of emergency language, this paper finds that there are five groups of terminology grounded in the two key concepts of emergency language and language emergency in the literature. Based on the comparison and analysis of the two sets of terms in accordance with the four rules of taxonomic relationship, semantic field,motivation, and word formation of the nomenclature, it is suggested that the core concept of emergency language should be adopted for the terminology consistency, and the equivalent English translation of emergency language-related terms is provided based on the terminology survey in international literature and the rules of nomenclature translation. It is our hope to contribute to the fight against COVID-19 through the discussion of terminology standardization.

Constructing Cultural Memory: A Critical Discourse Analysis of Literal Signs

SHEN Wen-jing

Abstract:Sign is an effective way to approach the speaker/writer. As a time-honored narration, oracle bone and tortoise shell inscriptions intertwine literal signs with image signs. The former ones usher us into rational contemplation, and the latter engage us in

physical perception and emotional experience. Cultural memory, which is constructive,entails remembering and forgetting to provide an effective way for interpreting the heritage and the writing culture. Based on the framework of critical discourse analysis,this paper combines linguistic relativity, linguistic thinking and iconicity theory to analyse the oracle inscriptions. It is found that the oracle signs imply the view of universe,nature and being, constructing a collectively shared knowledge, namely cultural memory,and realizing the reunion between then and now. This study aims to provide a CDA perspective for the study of literal signs and cultural memory.

Key words:oracle bone and tortoise shell inscriptions; literal sign; cultural memory;linguistic thinking; iconicity

The complex language environment causes Mandarin diversity in Singapore.

A Comparative Study of Japanese Media’s Reports and Translation ofThe Belt and Roadin China and Japan

ZHU Peng-xiao

Abstract:Based on Japanese media’s reports of the political termThe Belt and Roadin China and Japan, this paper makes a comparative study from the perspectives of communication and translatology and reveals much similarities of the reports despite Japan’s reports not as early as China, the sharp rise of the number of Japan’s reports of the term since 2017, the effectiveness of Japan’s reports of the term and the correspondence of those with the great events in China. The differences lie in reporting topics, translation methods, the positions of interpretation and the forms of translation.China emphasizes the implementation effects, while Japan focuses on potential geopolitical influences. The word-to-word translation is the only way in Chinese media,while various translation methods are used in Japanese media. China’s interpretation positions are mostly after the term, while Japan’s are before the term. China’s translation forms are rather simple, while Japan’s are complex. And the target language of translation changes from Japanese-to-Japanese in early China to English-to-Japanese today, while the previous silk-related translation is replaced by the non-silk translation in today’s Japan.

Key words:political terms; Japanese translation; publicity; The Belt and Road

Based on narratology, this paper finds that the publicizing strategies used in the BBC documentary,The Story of China, provide some guidance for the overseas publicity of China’s image. It shows that in terms of narrative time, multi sequential, multi time interval, and bifrequency strategies are used, narrative space is in accordance with the discourse space, the first person omniscient perspective is adopted, and multi-level narrative strategies are also used in this documentary. The combination of these strategies can show China’s image from three dimensional level.
