功能对等理论视角下医药文本的翻译实践研究

Research on the Translation Practice of Medical Texts from the Perspective of Functional Equivalence Theory

摘要: 经济全球化背景下，医药领域国际交流日益频繁，医药文本作为专业信息传递的核心载体，其翻译质量直接影响跨文化医药沟通效率。医药文本具有专业性强、缩略语密集、句式复杂等特征，传统直译模式难以满足其信息传递需求。功能对等理论强调以译入语读者认知习惯为导向，追求源语信息在功能层面的等效传递，为医药文本翻译提供了科学指导。本文以功能对等理论为核心，系统分析医药文本的语言特征，构建适配的翻译原则与策略体系，探讨翻译实践难点及解决路径，旨在为提升医药文本翻译质量、推动国际医药交流提供理论支撑与实践参考。

Abstract: Against the backdrop of economic globalization, international exchanges in the medical field have become increasingly frequent. As the core carrier for transmitting professional information, the translation quality of medical texts directly affects the efficiency of cross-cultural medical communication. Medical texts are characterized by strong professionalism, dense abbreviations and complex sentence structures, making the traditional literal translation model difficult to meet their information transmission needs. Functional equivalence theory emphasizes being oriented towards the cognitive habits of target language readers and pursues the equivalent transmission of source language information at the functional level, providing scientific guidance for the translation of medical texts. Taking functional equivalence theory as the core, this paper systematically analyzes the linguistic characteristics of medical texts, constructs an appropriate system of translation principles and strategies, and explores the difficulties and solutions in translation practice. It aims to provide theoretical support and practical reference for improving the translation quality of medical texts and promoting international medical exchanges.
