Abstract

During the development of human language, almost any languages will be influenced by other languages. Chinese has been greatly influenced by English in the development process. On the one hand, this kind of influence makes Chinese more energetic; on the other hand, it disturbs translators a lot during the process of translation. Translation is one of the main channels to disseminate culture. However, the excessive imitation of the English writing style results in the translation not in conformity with the idiomatic expression of Chinese. Translation becomes the main cause of Europeanized Chinese. This thesis discusses what causes Europeanized Chinese and how to solve this problem in terms of translation.  

Key words: Europeanized Chinese; translation; solutions
