Abstract:Eugene A. Nida, the American eminent theoretician on translation proposed the standard of translation --"functional equivalence". He advocated the translations and the originals for the equivalence on function of the language, rather than on the formal of the language. Peter Newmark, the English educator and theorist on translation also mentioned that "In my view, 'equivalent' is not so much the purpose of any translation, but a desirable result."
Both of the translation scholars mentioned above have indicated to the need for translation of "equivalent ", but in reality it is very difficult to grasp, because the translation is one of the most complex and most difficult activities, it involves people's cognitive, aesthetic, language, cultural awareness, translation knowledge and many other factors. Equivalent is just an ideal state we are in the pursuit of in the translation of practice, which could not achieve in our reality.
In this essay, I describe the inequivalence in English-Chinese translation from four aspects--the vocabulary, part of speech, thinking differences and cultural differences, and put forward the method that how to handle the relationship between inequivalence and equivalence to achieve the best results by anglicizing concrete examples.
Key words: Chinese-English translation；inequivalence
中文摘要:美国当代著名的翻译理论家尤金.奈达（Eugene A. Nida）提出了“功能对等”（functional equivalence）的翻译标准，他主张让Translation和原文在语言的功能上对等，而不是在语言的形式上对应。英国翻译教育家和理论家彼得.纽马克（Peter Newmark）也曾提到“在我看来，‘等效’与其说是任何翻译的目的，还不如说是一种可取的结果。”这两位翻译学者都提及翻译中需要“对等”，但是在现实当中却是很难把握的，因为翻译是人类最复杂、最困难的活动之一，它涉及人的认知、审美、语言文化素养、对翻译的认识等诸多因素，这种“对等”只是人们在翻译实践活动中所追求的一种理想状态，要达到绝对的对等是不可能的。
本文主要先阐述英汉翻译中不对等性的定义，从词汇、语序、思维差异、文化差异等4个方面阐述了英汉翻译中存在的不对等现象，而且以具体实例为切入点,提出在翻译过程中如何处理好对等与不对等的辩证关系,以求达到最佳的翻译效果。
