擬聲詞的常見三種翻譯處理方法:
譯為漢語對(duì)應(yīng)的擬聲詞,有的譯為獨(dú)詞句,有的譯為動(dòng)詞或名詞的輔助成分。
Crack! The stick broke in two.
喀嚓!棒子斷為兩截。

Round the corner of Croscent Bay, between the pile-up masses of broken rock, a flock of sheep came pattering.
沿著新月海灣的地方,從一堆堆破碎的巖石堆中,一群羊叭嗒叭嗒地跑了過來。
有時(shí)可以將英文的擬聲詞譯為漢語中較為抽象的“..........的叫,...........聲”,有的則直敘其動(dòng)作。
The cock in the yard crowed its first round.
院子里的雄雞已經(jīng)叫頭遍了。
He felt as if he must shout and sing, he seemed to hear about him the rustle of unceasing and inmumberable wings.
他感到簡直要大喊大唱,耳際仿佛傳來無數(shù)翅膀的拍擊聲。

為增加效果,即使英文未出現(xiàn)擬聲詞,翻譯時(shí)添加擬聲詞。

梭羅描寫沃爾登湖冬景的一句
I seldom opened my door in a winter evening without hearing it; Hoo hoo hoo, hooner hoo, sounded sonorously, and the first three syllables accented somewhat like how deardo; or sometimes hoo hoo only.
冬季傍晚,我一打開門常常聽到“唿——唿——唿,唿——唿”的鳥叫聲,聲音哼悅耳,前三個(gè)音節(jié)聽起來有點(diǎn)象英語的“你好哇!”有時(shí)便只是鳥叫而已。
