委婉语
1.He is a bicycle doctor.他是单车修理工.
此句不能译作:"他是个骑单车的医生",因句中的doctor是委婉语(euphemism),是对某种职业的美称,表示repair man的涵义.
��委婉语起源于远古,维多利来女王时代中期为其鼎盛时期,在现代英语中,其出现频率依然颇高,因为人们通过委婉语,可以用温顺悦耳的词语去谈论或叙述一些原来令人不快或逆耳之事物. 2.用domestic help,day help或live-in help代替mail或servant(佣人);用She has a tile loose或She has a cylinder missing去代替She is crazy或She is not right in the head(神经失常).
3.无线电修理工radio electrician--radio doctor
4.家庭妇女housewife--household executive
5.收垃圾工人garbage collector--sanitary engineer 6.老年old age--second childhood
7.老人old people--senior citizens
8.假牙false teeth–dentures
