This paper examines the Chinese terminology in 2024 Government Work Report and conducts a comparative analysis of its translation into English and Japanese.The study explores the challenges and strategies involved in translating these terms, taking into account differences in vocabulary, grammatical structure, and cultural context between the two languages.The findings reveal that the same term may be translated differently into English and Japanese due to the distinct linguistic and cultural characteristics of each language.The research emphasizes that understanding and respecting the unique features of each language and culture are essential for accurately conveying the meaning of Chinese terms.This is crucial for enhancing the international influence of Chinese discourse and promoting cross-cultural communication.
