On the formation of English originated transliterated words and the trend of their Hanization
论英源音译词的形成与汉化趋势

摘要

这对提高译文质量具有十分重要的意义。汉字是一种表意体系的文字，其特点是形义关系十分密切^[1]。作为表意文字，汉字的字形与意义之间存在着天然的紧密联系。长期接触汉字的使用者，会不自觉地形成一种依赖字形解读词义的认知习惯，即倾向于从字的视觉符号或偏旁部首中直接获取其指代事物的信息。这种心理，体现在对英源音译词的选字上，就是在字形及其意义之间搭起某种联系的桥梁，使它们看起来更像本土词汇^[1]。这些逐渐汉化的音译词大大地丰富了汉语的词汇，也增强了汉语语言的表现能力。音译词的“汉化”现象是一种必然的发展趋势。

Abstract

The Chinese character belongs to a language of ideogram, the main feature of which manifests the close relationship between the form and the meaning. People who have studied and used Chinese characters tend to have the mentality of “interpreting without real understanding” or “guessing the meaning on the sight of the form” unconsciously, so they just comprehend something by the form or the component of the character. This mentality, when reflected on the choosing of transliterated words, has bridged a relationship between the form and the meaning, making this kind of characters look like native words. These gradually Hanized transliterated words have become an organic part of Chinese language, and has greatly enriched Chinese vocabulary and strengthened its expressiveness, so this Hanization is an inevitable trend in the development of transliterated words.
