34、fication so that its cultural contentand appeared in the form of diversity, which is the origin of cultural differences.translation is the two language between social communication and communication tool, its aim is to promote the language clubthe political, economic and social and cultural progress

35、,its mission is to take the original works are included in the real world logic mapping or artistic image, intactfrom one language to another language or to, cultural exchange, to promote social progress, this is the translationthe fundamental task and the greatest significance, however, in the proc

36、ess of translation, present on the surface of foreign words on the difference expressiondifferent, only from the word skills up to it is difficult to solve the difference of meaning, we must from the cultural background.processing of foreign words in the expression of things connotation differences,

44、?therefore, whether the translator writing accomplishment and time how home, lack of cultural background is not. yieldone example, to illustrate the close relationship between translation and culture.the university of oxford retired teacher hawke si ( david havikes ) in order to focus on cao xueqin&
