一.信达雅的三种境界
1. 他(她)英语日常口语班挺有修养的。有修养
第一反应:北极光词霸(To be well cultivated/educated/civilized) 教育程度跟修养还是有一定的区别
She is very graceful. He is a decent man. He is full of dignity. 优雅指的更多的是行为举止,修养还有内在的一些因素

大家通过上面的几个例子已经感觉到,在这组句子翻译当中, 更多的是一些词汇的细节处
理问题, 特别是最后一句话当中的 button, 更让我们感到一个词的翻译的准确与否甚至可以影响整个句子的表达,这就是我们所熟知的一词多义在不同环境和场景下处理。
