『伍』 「正如中國的一句諺語所說....」 英文

『陸』 中國俗語(英文)
歷盡劫波兄弟在,相逢一笑泯恩仇。
古詩詞的英語翻譯不會,與其濫竽充數,不內如寧缺勿濫。
你想贈容與的人是中國人還是外國人?
如果是外國人,就用英語翻譯在送給他這句話。
如果是中國人,還是直接坦誠的用漢語送給他吧。因為如你所說的「當一個人拋棄朋友,歷經滄桑後終於明白朋友的重要,又回到了朋友身邊,」的這種情況,首先應給朋友表達對曾經不顧及朋友情意的悔恨,應該是真誠的,誠摯的表示自己想挽回友誼的真心。
如果你用英文送給他,就會遇到兩個問題:
1、對方英語水平不能真切的讀懂你想表達的意思,如果他對你的英文表達理解有偏差,就會影響對你真誠心的感受程度。
2、對方是漢族人,母語是漢語,當遇到一個曾經「拋棄朋友,」「又回到了朋友身邊」的朋友用英語說出的這句話時,首先的感覺是這個人在難為他,測試他,接著,當他讀懂或不能讀懂這個句子,他都會覺得你是在賣弄你的英語水平。
對朋友要真誠,如果要懺悔自己曾經的過錯,那麼更加應該要讓他知道你的真誠。百般修飾,遮遮掩掩,從人心上會產生畫蛇添足的效果,過尤不及啊。
所以,你直接將這句杜甫說過的話送給他好了,一定要表達出自己的真誠。
