【摘要】 随着信息技术的高速发展,计算机英语翻译在引进和吸收国外先进科技的领域中发挥着越来越显著的作用。宝岛台湾的计算机科学技术研究以及计算机制造产业较为发达,而内地则具有广阔的市场和丰富的人才资源,两者优势的结合将带来巨大的经济效益。但由于大陆和台湾所使用的计算机术语译名不同,使得两岸的科技交流尤其是计算机科技领域的交流和合作受到了很多阻碍。 本文就计算机英语术语翻译在台湾和大陆间存在的差异现象以及原因进行对比分析和研究。本文将从以下几个方面进行考察:1,计算机专业术语特有属性;2,介绍两岸用语的差异现象并对不同的计算机术语别名进行定量分类3,两岸社会文化与译者的选择之间的关系;4,两岸译者的语言风格和翻译策略之间的联系。 通过运用韩礼德系统功能语法理论中的“选择就是意义”原则和语境论述并结合归化异化翻译策略中的文化因素,在对大陆和台湾不同的计算机英语翻译分析和研究之后,我们得出以下结论:1,两岸的用语差异形成是个历史问题同时也是个文化问题,在计算机翻译领域所展现出来的差异性反映了文化对语言的深刻影响;2,不同的译名是两岸译者在其不同社会文化影响下的必然结果;3,计算机技术的日新月异和网络信息的广泛传播使得新术语的翻译更难统一;4,我们无法对两地翻译的孰优孰劣轻易下结论,因为对于科技译本,重要的是学习其中的技术内涵而不是领略其语言的优美。最后,在这些结论的基础之上笔者还进一步指出两岸应在计算机翻译领域加强交流与合作,共同致力于消除由于使用不同译名所产生的障碍。

【Abstract】 With the development of information technology, computer English translation becomes more and more important in introducing and assimilating advanced technology abroad. Taiwan takes the lead in computer technology study and computer manufacturing while China’s mainland holds large resource of talents and wide market, the combination of the two regions’ superiorities will bring forth huge economic benefit. However, the application of different translations of computer terms across the straits hinders the communication and cooperation between the two.This thesis deals with the different computer terms aliases between Taiwan and the mainland’s mainland and analyzing how these differences come into being. It will be stated from the following aspects: 1, special characteristics of computer terms;2, introducing different words and terms in the two sides of the Taiwan Straits and classify computer terminology aliases quantitatively;3, figuring out the relationship between the translators’ choices and the different cultures;4, analyzing the relationship between translation strategy and the translators’ styles.Based on ’choice is meaning’ principle from Halliday’s theory of systemic-functional grammar and his discussion on context of situation, the writer analyzes and examines the different aliases and translation styles between Taiwan and the mainland’s mainland, and the conclusion comes to: 1, the difference between Taiwan and the mainland’s mainland is not only a historic but also a cultural issue, what is shown in the field of computer science and technology has reflected how deeply cultures affect language;2, diversities between the two regions in computer English translation are inevitable because of the influence of different cultures;3, it will become harder and harder to unify the terminology aliases because of the high-speed growth of computer technology and network;4, we can not make a hasty judgment on which kind of translation is better because what is more important is to understand the technical essence from those versions rather than enjoy the beauty of language. In addition, the writer points out that the two regions’ workers need to work together to strengthen the communication and cooperation in computer Englishtranslation, and try their best to mitigate the bad affects of different application.
