摘 要:翻译教学研究中有关术语翻译学习者能力的研究是一个亟待开拓的领域。研究运用翻译能力与术语翻译相关理论,对国内4所学校西班牙语专业153名本科生的术语翻译能力进行了调查。调查旨在了解西班牙语专业大学生西班牙语—汉语双向翻译中的术语能力构成要素。量化和质化的数据分析显示:(1)西班牙语专业大学生在翻译中术语工具运用能力、术语管理能力较低,显著影响西班牙语文本的汉译质量,与术语处理和术语识别能力形成显著性差异;(2)术语处理能力不足的西班牙语—汉语翻译中,语篇错误更多;(3)术语知识不足、术语意识缺乏导致术语处理能力不足。最后,文章指出,为提高科技文本翻译质量,翻译教师一方面需要增强学生的术语管理和工具运用能力的培养,另一方面也需要加强相关科技知识的传授。

A Survey and Analysis of the Translation Ability of Spanish Major Undergraduates in Scientific Terms//LIANG Lin, ZHOU Minkang
Abstract:The research on translation learners competence in translation teaching research is an unexplored area. Based on combination of translation competence and terminology translation theories, this study investigated the terminology translation competence of 153 undergraduates majoring in Spanish at four universities in China. The involved survey aimed to clarify the components of terminological competence in Spanish-Chinese bilateral translation practice among Spanish major undergraduates. Quantitative and qualitative analysis show that: (1) Instead to their remarkable terminology processing and recognition ability, the respondents exhibit low capability in using terminological tools and terminology management, which significantly influence the final translation quality;(2) Insufficient terminology processing often leads to more discourse errors in Spanish-Chinese translations; (3) lack of terminological knowledge and/or terminological sensitivity lead to terminological processing deficiency. Our results enlighten that in order to improve the quality of scientific and technical translation, instructors can strengthen the students terminological tools management, and also, should introduce more scientific and technical knowledge.

引言
近30年来,随着我国翻译本科专业的设立,翻译教学研究日益受到学者关注,我国的翻译教学由20世纪80年代的感性研究发展到了90年代的感性与理性结合,再发展到2000年以来的理性阶段[1]。王树槐、栗长江[2]认为,中国翻译教学研究可以分为两个阶段:一是传统研究,即漫长的经验式、点评式、印象式的研究;二是近年的拓新研究:由于在支撑理论、研究范式上借鉴了外语教学和描述性翻译学的相关成果,研究结论表现出更新和开拓。……
