继2020年MTI论坛圆满收官后，外国语学院于4月8日在西校区耕读楼1425会议室成功举办了2021年第一期MTI论坛。2019、2020级全体研究生参加了本次活动。

本期论坛主讲人为2019级MTI研究生张若丹、张浩、关昊。张若丹同学紧跟时代发展趋势，向大家介绍了现阶段的中国网络漫画以及中国网络漫画英译的发展现状。她着重说明了漫画翻译中术语的类型以及提取术语的流程，归纳了不同术语的翻译策略，准备了别出心裁的经典案例进行分享；张浩同学从历史、地理因素的角度解释了中国同西方国家思维方式的差异由来。他剖析了思维方式对语言的影响，并以此为基础，提出案例，讲解了“主语及语态转换”、“语义重心的转换”、“语义阐释的变换”三个方面；关昊同学则是讲述了自己完成的旅游产品翻译实践。他首先为大家深入浅出地讲解了“文化专有项翻译策略”，明确了旅游产品的定义，最后分享了许多经典案例，每个案例都引发了火热的讨论，令人获益匪浅。王浩勇院长在每位主讲人分享结束，同学们讨论完毕后都提出了宝贵的意见，令每位同学都收获颇丰。

MTI论坛是我院于2020年10月推出的一项定期活动，由学院为学生提供一个畅快交流的平台，由学生策划，学生组织，旨在加强学生之间的学术沟通，让学生通过论坛交流的方式，展示出阶段性个人学习、研究的成果。自MTI论坛推出以来，到目前已成功举办九期，成绩斐然，师生收益巨大。

CFL Holds the First Session of 2021 MTI Forum

On April 8th, College of Foreign Language successfully held the first session of 2021 MTI Forum in Room 1425, Gengdu Building, West Campus. All MTI postgraduates of the Class of 2019 and 2020 attended the forum.

The three keynote speakers for this session were Zhang Ruodan, Zhang Hao and Guan Hao, MTI students from the Class of 2019. In light of current trends, Zhang Ruodan gave an overview of China’s webcomics and the present-day developments of its English translation. Following a discussion of the technical terms involved in translating webcomics, the term extraction process and some typical examples, she sorted out strategies for translating different terms. In view of the fact that thinking influences language, Zhang Hao proposed that historical and geographical factors, in turn, influence the modes of thinking both in China and the West. To further illustrate his point, he cited specific examples to dwell on three linguistic aspects: subject and voice conversion, shift of semantic focus, and semantic change. Guan Hao shared his personal experiences on translating tourism products. Having examined translation strategies for “Culture-Specific Items” and defined the concept of “tourism product”, Guan concluded his presentation with some brilliant examples that inspired an animated discussion.

At the end of each presentation, Dean Wang Haoyong commented with valuable insights, from which all the attending students benefited greatly.

Initiated by CFL in October 2020, MTI Forum features a college-provided platform whose activities are hosted and organized by MTI students themselves, with a view to enabling them to share their academic views, research findings and achievements of each study period at regular intervals. So far, MTI Forum has been held successfully for 9 sessions with rewarding results that are helpful to both teachers and students alike.(Trans. Zhang Haiying)
