An Analysis of Subtitle Translation of Culture-Loaded Words from the Perspective of Cultural Translation Theory—Taking<i> Chang</i> <i>An</i> as an Example

随着国产动画电影的快速发展,许多融合中国传统文化的作品逐渐走向国际市场,并在全球范围内获得广泛关注。在电影跨文化传播中,字幕翻译的质量直接影响着文化传递的效果,尤其是文化负载词的翻译,成为影响海外观众理解与接受的关键因素。本文以文化翻译观为理论框架,选取国产动画电影《长安三万里》作为研究对象,分析其字幕中文化负载词的翻译,探讨如何在保证信息准确性的同时,最大限度地传递中国文化内涵。以期为国产动画电影的字幕翻译提供借鉴,推动中国优秀传统文化走向世界。With the rapid development of domestic animated films, many works that integrate traditional Chinese culture are gradually entering the international market and gaining widespread attention. In the cross-cultural dissemination of films, the quality of subtitle translation directly impacts the effectiveness of cultural transmission, particularly the translation of culture-loaded words, which has become a key factor influencing overseas audiences’ understanding and acceptance. This paper adopts the cultural translation theory as its theoretical framework and selects the domestic animated film Chang An as the research subject. It analyzes the translation for culture-loaded words in the film’s subtitle and explores how to maximize the transmission of Chinese cultural connotations while ensuring informational accuracy. The aim is to provide reference for subtitle translation in domestic animated films and promote the global presence of traditional Chinese culture.

Abstract

随着国产动画电影的快速发展,许多融合中国传统文化的作品逐渐走向国际市场,并在全球范围内获得广泛关注。在电影跨文化传播中,字幕翻译的质量直接影响着文化传递的效果,尤其是文化负载词的翻译,成为影响海外观众理解与接受的关键因素。本文以文化翻译观为理论框架,选取国产动画电影《长安三万里》作为研究对象,分析其字幕中文化负载词的翻译,探讨如何在保证信息准确性的同时,最大限度地传递中国文化内涵。以期为国产动画电影的字幕翻译提供借鉴,推动中国优秀传统文化走向世界。With the rapid development of domestic animated films, many works that integrate traditional Chinese culture are gradually entering the international market and gaining widespread attention. In the cross-cultural dissemination of films, the quality of subtitle translation directly impacts the effectiveness of cultural transmission, particularly the translation of culture-loaded words, which has become a key factor influencing overseas audiences’ understanding and acceptance. This paper adopts the cultural translation theory as its theoretical framework and selects the domestic animated film Chang An as the research subject. It analyzes the translation for culture-loaded words in the film’s subtitle and explores how to maximize the transmission of Chinese cultural connotations while ensuring informational accuracy. The aim is to provide reference for subtitle translation in domestic animated films and promote the global presence of traditional Chinese culture.
