Such is the plight of foreign language interpreters and translators who have wrestled with statements by Donald Trump in his bid for the US presidency. His NSFW language, malapropisms, chants in B flat and twisted logic have perplexed translators around the world. 美国总统候选人特朗普的言论对于语言翻译者来说简直就是噩梦。他的NSFW言论，词语误用，魔性B降调，逻辑混乱，让全世界的译员抓狂。 Trump’s rhetoric is notorious for being vague and evasive, but the haziness is often lost in translation. “A wink and a nudge from head to Artioli-shod toe, he exhales a cloud of words in which listeners see their chosen shape.” This is how Tokyo-based freelance writer and translator Agnes Kaku described Trump’s rhetorical style on LinkedIn. 特朗普的措辞一向以模糊不清闪烁其词闻名，但是翻译中常常体现不了这种“含糊性”。“从头到脚都是戏，听众简直云里雾里。”住在东京的自由作家兼译者Agnes Kaku这样描述川普的措辞风格。 |
