bakbakwalanooksiwae and winalagilis 均不译 Explanation: 可保留英文不译,后面可用括号进行解释。解释内容分别为: the man-eating spirit和the warrior spirit -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 mins (2008-08-08 06:08:46 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 这两个单词应该也是来自于Kwakuitl/Kwakwaka'wakw (夸奇乌托族国/夸夸嘉夸族国)语言。如果音译的话最好知道这种语言对这两个单词的发音,所以最好不译。 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 hrs (2008-08-09 01:50:16 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 除了Kwakuitl/Kwakwaka'wakw 这里两个单词找到了比较固定的音译,你在这里问的其它几个单词都没有固定统一的音译。在这种情况下,最好采用不译的方式。 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days3 mins (2008-08-10 06:00:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 如果根据英文发音音译,bakbakwalanooksiwae可译为“巴克巴可瓦拉奴克斯维(Bakbakwalanooksiwae)”, winalagilis可译为“维纳拉吉里斯(Winalagilis)". |
