The Application of Cognitive Linguistics in English Translation

摘要

English translation is a communicative activity based on understanding the connotation of the original text，which converts English into the target language by means of written or oral expression. The application of cognitive linguistics in English translation can help translators to accurately grasp the cultural background and connotation of the source language，and improve the rationality and accuracy of translation expression. In view of this，translators should set cognitive linguistics theory as the background，explain the characteristics of cognitive linguistics translation，analyze the application direction of cognitive linguistics in translation，and put forward specific translation strategies，in order to promote English translation to achieve the goal of "sincerity，elegance and elegance".
