  • A Survey on Foreign Tourists' English Translation of Guangdong Tourism Images
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, October 2019, Vol. 9, No. 10, 1056-1060 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2019.10.007 D DAVID PUBLISHING A Survey on Foreign Tourists’ English Translation of Guangdong Tourism Images CHEN Ying-xi South China Business College Guangdong University of Foreign Studies, Guangzhou, China Metaphor, constituting culture as well as inheriting one, is a way that human beings perceive the world. The study of cognitive metaphor theory in translation illustrates the process how the people construct psychological images from one culture to another, from one language to another. A survey on Chinese to English translation has been conducted among foreigners to see their intuitive understandings of some Guangdong tourism images. The results found out three different familiarity levels of these tourism images and the English translations from the viewpoint of the foreigners. Translation can be done without understanding the actual meanings, and understanding can occur without being able to translate. Keyword: foreign tourists, Guangdong tourism images, metaphor, translation Introduction In trans-cultural communication, understanding each other refers to understanding different cultures and their experiences. It is important to realize and respect the differences among backgrounds, cultures, values, and so on. We live in a world of metaphor. Metaphorical imagination is a crucial skill when creating tacit agreements and communicating non-shared experiences (Lakoff & Johnson, 2015, p. 202). Metaphor is a linguistic phenomenon, but more importantly, a thinking mode. When doing translations from one culture to another, the factor of cognition should be considered (Chen, 2019, pp. 26-27, 35). Cognitive Metaphor and Translation Metaphor translation converts the literal meanings from one language to another.

  • New Patterns of Settlement for African Immigrants in China Bo Zhou
    Out of Africa: New Patterns of Settlement for African Immigrants in China Bo Zhou Department of Sociology State University of New York 1400 Washington Ave. Albany, NY 12222 Phone: 518-813-2175 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract As its economy continues to reach new highs, China becomes more and more attractive to foreigners who look for employment and business opportunities either for short term stay or long term settlement. China is on the way to become a new country of immigrant destination in the 21st century. Chinese government has been adjusting policies and regulations on immigrants and shorter term workers, based on the emerging problems and incidences involving immigrants. In this paper, I focus on a newly established organization in Chinese neighborhood: Foreigner Management and Service Center. It is a new kind of government sponsored institution that is first established in the city of Guangzhou in southern China. In this paper, I examine how immigrant service centers in Guangzhou facilitate Africans immigrants to adapt to the life in Guangzhou. The paper is based on public records as well as fieldwork in Guangzhou in the summer of 2012. 2 Introduction Since 19th century, China has been sending migrants to other countries: in the early stage, laborers were sent to US and to Southeast Asia; in more recent stage, mass migrants of various backgrounds were sent to developed countries. However, China didn’t receive many international migrants until the last few decades, thus it lacked the experience of administrating foreigners. It was only after Act on Exit & Entry of Aliens being enacted in 1986 that China began to have laws on foreigner management.
