Skopos rule is the primary rule of Skopos Theory; summarized as the basic principle of translators, the communicative purpose of translation and the specific aims by using kinds of translation means and communicative targets. In short, the skopos determines the means. In the course of translation, for the skopos rule, we need to know three things as follows. Firstly, translators need to command the origin of the dishes. Secondly, translators need to know the culture differences between source language and target language. Lastly, the users’ requirements, interests and receptivity should be considered.
