中英之鑒 中式英語(yǔ)之鑒369

[誤] people have known that accompanying kings is just like accompanying tigers even since the ancient times.

[正] People have known that kings and bears often worry their keepers even since the ancient times.

注：第一句譯文西方人未必明白其中的含義，而第二句不僅將原文的意思準(zhǔn)確表達(dá)出來(lái)了，還按照英語(yǔ)的習(xí)慣，把君王比作“熊”，十分地道。
