Abstract

In the field of artificial intelligence (AI), terminology is commonly used to simplify and accurately convey information.Utilizing metaphorical expressions to articulate concepts in professional domains is a common practice in scientific terminology naming, and accurately translating metaphorical terms can ensure efficient information transmission.This paper, through case analysis, summarizes the lexical features of metaphorical terms in German artificial intelligence discourse and discusses translation strategies, aiming to provide reference for the translation of technical German texts into Chinese.
