英文翻译中不译的问题
To reveal art and conceal the artist is art's aim. 翻译成 展示艺术本身是艺术的目的.
这里的conceal为什么没翻译?
答
to conceal is to prevent from being seen or discovered or to hold back; keep from being perceived by others;
In this case - the translation should be read as: 隐藏艺术家/作者是展示艺术本身的目的
答
如果完整翻译,应该是：展示艺术而不突出艺术家是艺术的目的.不突出艺术家,那就是展示艺术本身.所以conceal the artist就不用翻译出来了.
