但是，这个“不折腾”怎么翻呢？据说难坏了各路翻译精英们。

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：2 |9 H, J& \& }8 U# R* [7 r& m5 x( I
; m: k+ o' w# D g) J
avoid self-inflicted setbacks (不折腾)( Y+ j: L0 t8 `6 P" ^( f2 I
5 C% x2 ^4 G# |# C) v1 H7 m" ], s
原因是：
8 N/ Z* M, c5 T7 Z5 Y7 b# @: @9 n+ v/ ^# l0 L
“self-inflicted” has the connotation of creating theunnecessarypain for one self.
6 g- Z0 u0 F; c3 i5 r
& m' W3 w1 W% E' d7 K# x% o/ p F 折腾 in Hu"s speech has a strong connotation that such kindofsetback is self-seeking instead of being due to theinterferencefrom outside.
% j. B% v7 j9 h8 W- K7 {7 q( P; }3 f; q5 _9 B* s# @! p7 `5 I5 p
“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. |
