In this paper, the basic colors in Chinese and English vocabulary the two languages ​​of different cultural connotations were compared, with the aim to better use of color words more accurately at the same time, further to reach the purpose of communication. The meaning of the words 1 color finishing. Language is the carrier of culture. But it is also an important part of culture. The word is the most active factor in the language is the language that best reflect the cultural characteristics of the part. They result, change and development are included with the rich and complex cultural information, such as geography, history, tradition, political economy, customs, religious beliefs, aesthetic orientation, values ​​and ways of thinking, etc., which can best embody the color words a strong national colors and distinctive cultural identity, so that the language of different ethnic groups show different characteristics. With obvious cultural imprint. This requires the translator with different cultures and languages ​​in terms of color, we must fully understand the color in different regions and areas of the salient features and specific meaning, must not Color and human lives, we are constantly dealing with the color. Big endless world of colors, have their own unique physical properties, in the language also has vivid expression. Perception of color is one of the most basic human cognitive areas. The world's different peoples have different colors of the number of words, classification varies. But the English and Chinese on the classification of basic color terms not very different. Chinese in red, orange, yellow, green, green, blue, purple, English in red (~), white (white), black (black), green (green), yellow (yellow), blue (blue), purple (purple), gray (gray), brown (brown). Between these same basic colors, too, have a different distinction. The difference primarily by geography, local customs, ways of thinking, religion and other factors, so that different colors in the visual and psychological for people of different regions and ethnic groups have different associations and symbolic significance. The following English and Chinese languages ​​on several major comparative study about color words were. 2 color Words Translation 2.1 red (red) in any language, the word may be with a certain amount of emotional color,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or a compliment, or derogatory, or not praise is not devaluation. Appraise the meaning of this exists is because people who use the language of objective objects tend to have a certain emotional or ethical evaluation. Have different likes and dislikes and likes and dislikes. In English and Chinese, the red phrase, some meaning can be fully correspond, so we can use the literal translation. The so-called literal translation, that is, while maintaining the original content, while maintaining the original form of the translation method. Translation of the language (or target language) and the original language (or the originating language) often use the same forms of expression reflect the same content, and can produce the same effect. In this case. We can use literal translation. For example: the red flag of a redflag, the Red Cross - RedCross. Red wine a redwine and so on. In addition, both in Britain and the U.S. or in China. Red is often associated with celebration or jubilation about. So in China. Many calendars are using red font to indicate Jiejia 13. Therefore, redletterday refers to the In addition, the bright red to give people a warm, positive emotional response, but also give people the psychological reaction to danger. Therefore, the redlight in English means the danger to the traffic signal or crossing a red light, and thus allows us to highlight the theme of passion in dealing with some of the news information. Can be accompanied by a red to match the spread. But in the West, red is often also with fear, bloodshed and immorality connected. Such as: red-lightdistrict is the red-light district, alluding to the brothels of urban area: the catchsbred-handed, said the spot, found someone to do bad things; there seered and likearedragtoabull can be expressed anger, furious and mean.

But must be noted that, in any language, the same may have referred to several different literal name. Similarly, the different languages ​​of the alleged same object, the object may also be the focus of attention because of perceived or different, and the use of different literal meaning of the name. Therefore, commonly used in Chinese with Translated into English, not necessarily with the For example: brown sugar brownsugar; black blacktea; red list honourboard; Hongyun goodluck; bonus dividend / bonus; Red humansociety; red things wedding; cop getangryorbeshy and so on. 2.2 White (white) white white in Chinese and English in both associative meaning pure meaning, can be said that the symbol of pure perfection, so the Chinese are pure white, long life together, angels and other words. In addition, White also said the pale, weak meaning. So English has bewhiteasasheet, used to describe people pale skin, white as a sheet, extreme weakness. However, due to differences between two cultures, but also has the connotation of white made the difference. For example, Chinese cultures, white and death associated with funerals, such as But in English culture. happiness and pure white, said, as the bride wore a white dress at the wedding, on behalf of the purity of love, chastity and marriage. But note that some things because of the color white is named. But the translation is often not used when the white, l: L ~ n English whitegoods mean bulky, high priced household appliances, such articles because of the color white, often named; whitesale on sale, especially sheets, pillowcases and other white fabric; thewhiteway White Avenue, refers to the bright lights in the city business district; whitenight sleepless night.

Chinese Some of the vain things a1linvain; flour flour; idiot f0ol; confession profession and so on. So the translator the colors of these phrases with special meaning, they must first figure out the color due to the impact of different cultures and ideas, may contain different symbolic meaning and associative meaning. must be clear that exchange of cultural translation. translator in this criss-cross, the complex network of social and cultural symbols to decode (decoding) and encoding (encoding) 32 for. translator must bear in mind the original decoding only linguistic sign systems reflect many of the notation system, a collection of symbolic systems are present in society's understanding of their significance can not be divorced from society; translator must also be borne in mind in the code. Since the original target language and cultural differences reflected in language, In particular, cultural and psychological differences in language and culture, the original allegations, made in three languages ​​within the meaning and translation when transplanted into the inevitable obstacles encountered, the translator should seek to eliminate barriers to information exchange process distortion to a minimum. 2_3 black (black) black Chinese and English are derogatory, that unwanted, evil, illegal means.
