Features: This book is a specialized work dedicated to exploring the English translation of neologisms, new expressions, and new meanings in contemporary Chinese newspapers and periodicals. Based on translation theory and practice, it systematically introduces the characteristics, standards, techniques, and common errors in translating neologisms, new expressions, or the new meanings of old words, as well as foreign neologisms, from the perspectives of the effectiveness of news communication and cross-cultural linguistics. Additionally, the book selects 80 typical examples from newspapers and periodicals as case studies, providing detailed analyses of their definitions, translation methods, alternative terms, and common mistranslations. The aim is to help readers not only understand how to translate new expressions that lack precedent but also grasp the reasoning behind the translations. This book meets the needs of interpreters, journalists, foreign affairs publicists, and others involved in foreign-related work and research, while also serving as a learning and reference resource for university teachers, students, and general English readers.
