但是，这个“不折腾”怎么翻呢？据说难坏了各路翻译精英们。4 ?' j( J, t$ \# q
; `) f5 O" A$ b! c+ t
在网上收集了几种译法：供各位参考，希望起到抛砖引玉的作用：; s8 ^3 p0 Y8 \7 x6 q
9 m8 o* r& V0 F& e" Y
1、don"t flip flop (别翻来倒去，朝三暮四)7 C& s( l* A* L- J6 n/ ^7 Q

3、don"t sway back and forth (别反复)+ |& Q- i; s+ W% ~9 R. O: b U' ?

z% W6 i5 a# O+ K
上述译法，觉得都不够准确，不够精彩，没有把“折腾”的全部意思表达出来。这里推荐一个译法，感觉比较恰当：
8 |2 M; I) ~( }3 v
( `7 z, w: y+ q) z7 n* M avoid self-inflicted setbacks (不折腾)9 |7 `- a8 t9 n5 F
2 j3 \: T) {' Y5 I0 O* }
原因是：! W' a+ ]3 q/ \' I; h
( N# I4 x! r5 B! u3 Y) u* v C b
“self-inflicted” has the connotation of creating theunnecessarypain for one self.
( P9 Z% u1 s0 E/ `1 W" E- X" r) Q. O
折腾 in Hu"s speech has a strong connotation that such kindofsetback is self-seeking instead of being due to theinterferencefrom outside.
- K& Z+ s; N- q1 q3 A3 L+ g( Y. W7 O2 N* Y# n
“Setback” is a much better word than “trouble”, whichanunseasoned translator would like to use in the firstinstance.“Setback” especially refers to the obstacle ordifficultyencountered in achieving a strategic goal. |
