red(红色).红色往往与庆祝活动或喜庆日子有关。因为日历中,这些日子常用红色字体。 black(黑色)在英语中经常有“不好的”、“坏的”、“邪恶的”这种意味。 blue(蓝色)在英语中通常表示不快乐、忧郁的情绪。 green(绿色)英语中的green常用来表示表示“嫉妒”,还表示“新鲜”或没有经验、缺乏训练”的意思。白色(white)英语文化中,white表示幸福和纯洁,如新娘在婚礼上穿白色礼服,代表爱情的纯洁和婚姻的贞洁。gray 灰色,高中麦琪的礼物上有讲过,党代表抑郁 ,心情低落。深白色绿色green在英语中可以表示“嫉妒、眼红”,如:green with envy,green as jealousy,green-eyed monster都是指“十分嫉妒”的意思。汉语中表示“嫉妒”意义的“眼红”,应该翻译为green-eyed而不能翻译为red-eyed。由于美元纸币是绿颜色的,所以green在美国也指代“钱财、钞票、有经济实力”等意义,如:(11) In American political elections the candidates that win are usually the ones who have green power backing them.在美国政治竞选中获胜的候选人通常都是些有财团支持的人物。 在英语中绿色还用来表示没有经验、缺乏训练、知识浅薄等意思,如:(12) The new typist is green at her job. 刚来的打字员是个生手。(13) You cannot expect Mary to do business with such people. She is only eighteen and as green as grass. 你不能指望玛丽同这样的人做生意,她只有十八岁,还毫无经验。黄色黄色在英语和汉语中的引申含义差别比较大。在英语中,yellow可以表示“胆小、卑怯、卑鄙”的意思,例如:a yellow dog 可鄙的人,卑鄙的人a yellow livered 胆小鬼(14) He is too yellow to stand up and fight. 他太软弱,不敢起来斗争。英语中的黄色还用来作为事物的特定颜色,例如,美国有些城市的出租车上标有“yellow”(而不是“taxi”)的字样,代表出租车,因为那里的出租车为黄颜色。如:Yellow Pages 黄页 (电话号码簿,用黄纸印刷)Yellow Book 黄皮书 (法国等国家的政府报告,用黄封面装帧)Yellow boy (俗)金币汉语中x色一词有时象征低级趣味、xx庸俗、x流猥亵的意思,如x色电影、xx书刊、xx光碟等等。这些名称中的“黄”与英语中的“yellow”无关。能够表示汉语中这些意思的词汇应该是:pornographic(x情的)、vulgar(庸俗x流的)、obscene(猥亵的)等。然而,英语中另一个颜色词blue却常用来表示汉语中这类意思,如blue jokes(x流的玩笑), blue films(x色电影)等。蓝色蓝色(blue)在汉语中的引申意义较少,而在英语中blue是一个含义十分丰富的颜色词。在翻译同这一颜色有关的表达时,我们应该注意其中的特别含义。英语的blue常用来喻指人的“情绪低落”、“心情沮丧”、“忧愁苦闷”,如:(15) They felt rather blue after the failure in the football match. 球赛踢输了,他们感到有些沮丧。(16)She looks blue today. What’s the matter with her?She is in holiday blue. 她今天显得闷闷不乐,出了什么事情? 她得了假期忧郁症。例 (15) 中的holiday blue 相当于winter holiday depression,指冬季假期时,人困在家里,感到无聊寂寞时的心情或情绪。另一个同低落的情绪有关的词组是:a blue Monday(倒霉的星期一),指度过快乐的周末后,星期一又要上学或上班,所以情绪不好。blue在英语中有时用来指“黄色的”、“下流的”意思,如:blue talk 下流的言论blue video 黄色录象有时blue又有社会地位高、出身名门的意义,如blue blood(贵族血统)。此外,blue在英语中与其它词汇搭配,还有另外的含义,如:out of blue 意想不到once in a blue 千载难逢drink till all’s blue 一醉方休白色白色(white)在汉语和英语的联想意义中都有纯洁和清白的意思,但也有一些含义上的不同。例如,汉民族文化中,白色与死亡、丧事相联系,如“红白喜事”中的“白”指丧事(funeral),表示哀悼。但在英语文化中,white表示幸福和纯洁,如新娘在婚礼上穿白色礼服,代表爱情的纯洁和婚姻的贞洁。英语中的white有时表达的含义,与汉语中的“白色”没有什么关系,如:a white lie 善意的谎言the white coffee 牛奶咖啡white man 善良的人,有教养的人white-livered 怯懦的white elephant 昂贵又无用之物汉语中有些与“白”字搭配的词组,实际上与英语white所表示的颜色也没有什么联系,而是表达另外的含义,如:白开水 plain boiled water白菜 Chinese cabbage白字 wrongly written or mispronounced character白搭 no use白费事 all in vain黑色黑色(black)在英语和汉语两种语言文化中的联系意义大致相同。例如,黑色是悲哀的颜色,英美人在葬礼上穿黑色服装,中国人在葬礼上戴黑纱。英语中的Black Friday 指耶稣在复活节前受难的星期五,是悲哀的日子。black在英语中还象征气愤和恼怒,如:black in the face 脸色铁青to look black at someone 怒目而视另外,黑色在汉语和英语中都有“阴险”、“邪恶”的含义,不过翻译时不一定用“黑”或“black”的字眼,例如:黑心 evil mind黑手 evil backstage manipulator黑幕 inside story黑线 a sinister lineblack sheep 害群之马black day 凶日black future 暗淡的前途除上面所提到的各种联想意义外,颜色词还与历史、社会、经济等现象有关系,表现出一定的社会属性,例如:历史方面:to raise to the purple升为红衣主教to be born in the purple 生于帝王之家to marry into the purple 与皇室或贵族联姻社会方面:blue-collar workers 蓝领阶层,指普通体力劳动者grey-collar workers 灰领阶层,指服务性行业的职员white-collar workers 白领阶层,指接受过专门技术教育的脑力劳动者pink-collar workers 粉领阶层,指职业妇女群体golden-collar personnel 金领阶层,指既有专业技能又懂管理和营销的人才经济方面:red ink 赤字in the black 盈利white goods 白色货物,指冰箱、洗衣机等外壳为白色的家电产品brown goods 棕色货物,指电视、录音机、音响等外壳为棕色的电子产品。

英语关于颜色研究的论文

red(红色):无论在英语国家还是在中国,红色往往与庆祝活动或喜庆日子有关。英语里有 red-letter days(纪念日,喜庆的日子),在西方一般指圣诞节或其他节日,因为这些日子在日历上是用红色标明的,所以red-letter的转义就是“可纪念的”、“喜庆的”。 (普通的日子印的是黑色,但 black-letter day却不是“平常的日子”,而表示“倒霉的一天”。)又如 to paint the town red表示“狂欢”、“痛饮”、“胡闹”,多指夜生活中的狂欢作乐,饮酒胡闹,不是“把全城染红”。此外,roll out the red carpet for sb. 的意思是:“(铺展红地毯)隆重地欢迎某人”。如: He was the first European head of state to visit their country,and they rolled out the red carpet for him.(他是第一个访问该国的欧洲首脑,他们用隆重的礼仪来欢迎他。)

中西文化中颜色词语的象征意义 The symbolic meaning of the color word of between China and western countries Summary: Show in the Chinese-English language the words of different colors or color is very abundant. We not merely should pay attention to observing themselves' basic meaning, should paying attention to the deep and broad symbolic meaning of their meaning even more, because their symbolic meaning often has different characteristics in different national languages, some characteristics even form people to the advocating and taboo of the color after guiding stretching , transferred meaning. The difference of symbolic meanings of the color between such different culture is because of each national difference and producing of historical background , aesthetic psychology of culture, sanctified by usage in the sediment of development , history in the society, it is a kind of permanent culture phenomenon. The angle that this text attempts to compare from Chinese and Western culture with analysis, probe into various nationalities' culture to develop the impact on symbolic meaning of the color word. The human language is extensive and profound, different countries, the unique glamour that different and national color words demonstrate, make people regard with special esteem. In Great Britain's Chinese-English language, all very abundant to displaying different colors or the word of the color. We not merely want to understand their each one's own basic meaning, should pay attention to the deep and broad symbolic meaning of their meaning even more. Because often there are different characteristics in different national languages in symbolic meanings of the color, some characteristics have not represented the meaning of its word itself yet, but guide stretching, transferred meaning to it. First , midwest square color word because of our country and hopeless the greater part English country ten thousand li apart objective cause , symbolic meaning of difference, in the geographical position , scene that history aches , very great difference exists aesthetically psychologically, so the feeling of seeking the color word will not be the same. The symbolic meaning that a color word shows will be various naturally . This text will do some brief contrasts and discussions on the color of the word and symbolic meaning difference in Chinese and Western culture. By the look of definition of the color, color through eyes brain and people a kind of vision effect to the light experience of life produce, it is a vision phenomenon launched , reflecting or causing through certain light wave by the object, it is a kind of basic domestic animal of the human eye vision . About the definition of, it is relatively short to going through the time of the feudal society, and in nearly modern science is popularized and the west of development says at full speed, it is easier they accepted. The west relatively pays attention to the analysis things with rational science from the beginning, display it to the objective world and realistic scientific attitude known objectively. So, the symbolic meaning of the color is often more direct in western culture, generally symbolize some abstract cultural meaning with the concrete color of objective things For example: Western culture " getting red " to point color of " blood " but blood surge forward life liquid of the human body among the mind in westerner mainly, once the blood trickles, the life stops , so, the red make people associate it with the violence , dangerous, thus produced to the red taboo. Western Sinologist translate " Dream of the Red Chamber " may because of the fact that consider " red " make them is it bleed to associate it with, so adopted title " the stone is written " that the novel had used originally, English meant story of the stone to compare with the western civilization, Chinese culture is of long standing and well established, the feudal society that China goes through several thousand years, education and science lag behind relatively, so, in Chinese culture, the thought that the color expresses has strong mystery flavor, the development of the objective reality receives China's social development relatively largely. Color intension and symbolic meaning are very abundant in Chinese culture, and the symbolic meaning of the color word is plural. For example, the red in Chinese culture comes from the sun. Our ancestor has a kind of instinctive attachment and worships to the sunshine, the red joyous and lucky production naturally of purpose. With getting white as example and then, in mankind initial stage, our ancestor is small and weak and unable, make them completely exposed in broad daylight, an attack of the irresistible fiendish beast of prey, therefore the dialogue color has a kind of instinctive frightened sense, so the white becomes a kind of color and prohibits avoiding as taboo in Chinese culture. It is obvious; the symbolic meaning of the color demonstrates the human psychological characteristics at the same time. Second, concrete description of different symbolic meanings of the color in Chinese and Western culture. , the red advocates the color basically in our country's culture. It is lucky , joyous that it symbolizes; For example facilitate others bright marriage name " matchmaker ", joyous day will be it register for bright red lantern to want, stick to and form uniting red, the red good fortune word: The man sticks the bright red " liking " word while marrying the daughter and is married, one is lively | The prosperity is named " flourishing "; It symbolizes the revolution and progress again, for instance, Communist Party of China's initial regime is named " red regime ", the initial arms are called " the Red Army "; It is it smoothly , succeed to symbolize too, such as to very kind to known as " becoming much more popular " circumstances have people; Trusted unduly and called " the favourite follower " by the superior ; Assign to and manage profits and shout and " share out bonus", load the end with the beautiful woman to call " the beauty " ,etc.. The red is one to demote symbol that the word with quite strong purpose is " fire , blood " in western culture, representatives are cruel and ferocious and bleeding. If (1), is it massacre with violence is it claim for The red rules of tooth and claw (2 ) bloody to revenge for red revenge to ruling to describe; It symbolizes the radical violent revolution again, such as (1)It is a red revolution to describe the red revolution (2)Radical political movement represent for red hot political campaign (3 ) the Left radical activity commendatory as for a getting red one for red activities, for instance joyous day the red carpet of red days, grand reception ,etc., benefit from different culture and exchange and merge. 2, White and red and opposite, it is a basic taboo word; reflect Chinese are in the material and spiritual abandoning and disgust. The white does not have blood color, dead behavior; symbolize the death, ill omen. If the relative has wanted to wrap rough Dai Xiao after dying since ancient times, worn the white mourning dress, is called the funeral, set up the white mourning hall , should hit the white long narrow flag while carrying a coffin to the cemetery . Getting white word is it reach political influence is it fail, be unwise, is it take to have no profit to signify also to like in the course of its development, such as party that fail play " white flag " say that surrenders always among war; Call person with low intelligence " eat free ", exert oneself but make the advantage or come to naught and is named " busy oneself to no purpose " | " waste strength ". Finally, it signifies there is little knowledge, there is not fame and gain, such as calling rank and file “the commoner ", temper being scarce, scholar not deep calls “the pale-faced scholar ",etc. the experience. Western culture getting white symbolic meaning focus on one's own color their mainly, snow such as being new, fresh milk and color of the lily. Westerners think it white and graceful and pure, so it is the advocating color in the western culture. It is evil that it signifies that too pure to have, such as (1) a white souls, pure white wedding bride's wedding in white full dress of soul (2 ); It is honest , honest that it symbolizes again, such as (1) a white spirit honest soul (2)A white men is noble, an educated person. (3)White hand is honest; It is honest , honest that it symbolizes again, such as (1) a white spirit honest soul (2)A white men is noble, an educated person. (3)White hand is honest; It symbolize lucky too, if (1) somebody, life of one of the white days o f sib’s, it have legal and having hostile meaning lucky day of the life, such as (1) white market legal market, 3, the black has heavy mysterious senses in Chinese culture, it is a kind of serious and serious tone, and its symbolic meaning seems comparatively complicated because of affecting by western culture. On one hand it symbolizes serious , justice, black face Boa Zhen in the popular legend , black type of facial make up of Zhang Fey , Li Chui in traditional Beijing opera ,etc.; It again because a one's own one their dark to give somebody sinisterly , sinister and terrific feeling while being unglazed on the other hand. It symbolizes evilly, reactionary, such as meaning the sinisterly vicious person is a black heart, hidden repulsive inside information is " shady deal ", members of the reactionary group are the reactionary gang, evil backstage manipulator, call the ruler for the list of the dissident that draws up blacklist, (2) legal bright form that white list is sanctioned, (3) a white lie harmless lie. It show crime , break the law, such as is it do bandit conduct shout " walk the underworld " , is it kill robbery of goods , do illegal inn of business name the gangster inn to claim to claim, the violated goods trade calls the black market, is named the dirty money and waited with the money that the illegal means is obtained It is the basic taboo color in the western culture to be black (black), have reflected westerner's spiritual abandoning and disgust. It symbolizes the death , ill omen , disaster, if (1) Black Mass fits fairy Mass, (2) to wear black for her father is her father Dai Xiao, (3)black words unlucky words, (4) the fierce day of a black letter day; It symbolizes the evilness , crime, such as (1) the evil devil of Black Man, (2) a black de ed extremely abominable black guard ruffian , hooligan of behavior (3 ); It symbolizes shame, inglorious too, if a black eye disgraced , bad reputation of a black mark stain (2 ) of (1 ); Depressed , angry that it still symbolizes, such as (1) black dog depressed mood, (2) The future looks black prospects are dim, (3)He gave me a black look. He is looking at me in a great rage. 4,In a word there is a very great difference in different national culture in the symbolic meaning of the color word. Fundamentally, among Chinese culture, symbol of color based on China in the past ruling of feudalism, feudalistic superstition and primitive, backward science, educational state take shape, so the symbolic meaning of the color has quite strong inclination of politicizing and mystifying. The color in western culture signifies that benefits from the popularization degree of the national opening in the west and science , education more, symbolic meaning its little and mysterious, getting many some reason, make sometime , motivation easy to track the meaning of a word its. Symbolic meanings of the color between different cultures are all sanctified by usage in the sediment of development, history in the society; it is a kind of permanent culture phenomenon. , interesting, humor, cordial that they can make the language more vivid!

有关颜色词研究的综述论文

颜色词与中华文化的关系是文化现象。

颜色是人与外部环境接触较为普遍的一种刺激,其与人的内隐认知和认知控制有紧密联系。中国文化下颜色有很多特定含义。

颜色与中国文化的联系脉络,可至古代宇宙观、五行学说起追溯。这是一种颜色迷信,却又在日月沉淀中上升为一种文化现象,它们作为既定符号为人们所认知。在历史长河中,又因中国文化的兼容并包性,在外来文化的掺杂中调制出新色系。因为古文是中国文化的载体。

民族文化心态和感情色彩

1、黑色

黑者北方也,所以古人认为黑色代表北方、冬天,象征悲凉、萧瑟、愤怒。一些情况下黑色则代表不能见光,如黑心、黑帮这样的词就给人不愉快的感觉。黑色和铁的颜色相似,所以黑色也象征着铁面无私,正直。

2、白色

白色自古有象征死亡、凶兆的含义,是生命枯竭的表现,在办丧事时,人们设白色的灵堂,家属则要披麻戴孝。白色在很多情况下都表示不好,如:从政治上看,白色又象征腐朽、失败、如革命时期把国民党称作百匪;而战争中失败投降则用举白旗代表。

关于颜色词翻译英文毕业论文

英语专业主要看的是英语能力吧。你可以翻译下别人其他专业的论文

Sample 色与人类的生活息息相关,我们我们无时无刻不在与颜色打交道。大千世界的颜色种类无穷无尽,有各自的独特物理属性,在语言中也有鲜明生动的体现。对颜色的认知,是人类最基本的认知范畴之一。人类对颜色的认知,是有很明显的共同处的。发映在语言上,就是虽然各种语言表达颜色的词汇数量差别较大,但是表达颜色的基本词汇,如黑、白、红、黄、绿、蓝等,在很多语言中都是相通的,是非常一致的。不过,由于各民族文化风俗,地理位置,历史传统,宗教信仰,民族心理,思维习惯等方面差异,颜色词语有时有表现出各民族独特的“个性”,带有显著的文化烙印。这就使得颜色词语的翻译,可以采用不同的方法。下面,先让我们来比较一下英汉两种语言中一些常见颜色词汇的异同。A. red(红色)无论是在英语国家还是在中国,红色往往与庆祝活动或喜庆日子有关。因为日历中,这些日子常用红色字体。因此,red letter day:指的是“纪念日”或“喜庆的日子”。红色还指“负债”或“亏损”,因为人们总是用红笔登记负数。于是就有了这些词组:red figure:赤字red ink:赤字in the red:亏损red-ink entry:赤字分录red balance:赤字差额除此之外,还有如red cent:一分钱;red gold:纯金;red tip on stock market:指股票市场的最新情报汉语中常用的带“红”字的词语,翻译成英语,可不一定用“red”。例如:红糖:brown sugar 红茶:black tea 红榜:honour roll 红豆:love pea 红运:good luck 红利:dividend 红事:wedding red wine: 红酒 red ruin: 火灾 red battle: 血战 red sky: 彩霞B. black(黑色)在英语中经常有“不好的”、“坏的”、“邪恶的”这种意味。例如:black money:黑钱(指来源不正当而且没有向政府报税的钱)black market:黑市交易或黑市(意为暗中进行政府禁止买卖的商品或外汇的交易,或指进行违法的投机市场);由此派生出black market price:黑市价格另外,英语中,和红色墨水是记帐时的意思相反,黑色还可表示盈利。例如:black figure / in the black:盈利、赚钱、顺差又如black figure nation:国际收支顺差国interest in the black:应收利息C. blue(蓝色)在英语中通常表示不快乐、忧郁的情绪。如:in a blue mood:情绪低沉还常用来表示社会地位高、有权势或出身贵族或王族。如He is a real blue blood.(他是真正的贵族。)blue-eyed boys:受到管理当局宠爱和特别照顾的职工a blue moon:千载难逢的机会经济词汇中blue表示许多不同意思。如:blue book:蓝皮书blue-sky market:露天市场blue-collar workers:从事体力劳动的工人blue chip:热门证券blue button:喻指有权进入股票交易的经纪人blue return:蓝色所得税申报表(专供诚实的纳税人申报用)blue-chip rate:英国的优惠的信贷利率blue laws:蓝法(指禁止在星期日从事商业交易的美国法律)blue-sky law:蓝法(指美国各州为管理股票所制定的股票发行控制法)blue sky bargaining:漫天讨价(指谈判或其它交易中提出根本不切实际的或不合理的要求,使协议无法达成)D. green(绿色)英语中的green常用来表示表示“嫉妒”,如green-eyed:嫉妒/眼红green还表示“新鲜”或没有经验、缺乏训练,如:green meat:鲜肉a green hand:新手green在财经领域还有下列意思:green back:美钞(因为美元背面为绿色)(用于口语)green power:“金钱的力量”或“财团”green stamp:指美国救济补助票,因印成绿色而得名green sheet指政府预算明细比较表green pound:绿色英镑(指共同体内部计算农产品价格而规定的高汇率英镑。)E. white(白色)在英语中white常使人联想起清白,如:white war:没有硝烟的战争,常指“经济竞争”。有些事物因其颜色为白而得名,如white goods:指的是体积大、单价高的家用电器用具,这类物体常刷成白色,故名。white money:银币white coal:水力white elephant:昂贵却派不上用场的物体或物主不需要但又无法处置之物white sale:大减价the white way:白光大街(指城里灯光灿烂的商业区)F. 其它颜色构成的词汇。 如:grey market:半黑市grey area:灰色地区(指失业严重地区)pink slip:解雇职工通知单yellow pages:黄页(指分类电话簿,并非指黄书。)通过以上例子,我们可以看出,颜色词语的翻译,大致有以下四种方法:(一)直译。基本按照原文的词语形式来翻译。如:White House 白宫red figure:赤字yellow pages:黄页(指分类电话簿,并非指黄书。)(二)改换颜色词。根据译入语(英汉翻译时,就是汉语了)的习惯,用读者熟悉的颜色词来改变原文的颜色词。如:black tea 红茶black and blue 青一块紫一块 (而不是青一块黑一块)(三)原文中无颜色词,译文中根据汉语的表达习惯,可以增加适当的颜色词。如He didn't try in vain.他没有白干。 (华先发主编,《新实用英译汉教程》,湖北教育出版社)Her eyes became moist.她眼圈红了。 (同上)(四)意译。有些颜色词语因为是习惯用法,有引申意义,这时,可以根据原文的意思,完全忽略原文的颜色词,而用译入语的适当词语来翻译。如:红豆 love pea pink slip:解雇职工通知单a green hand:新手Text1)红色red letter day,一般指的是“纪念日”或“喜庆的日子”。不管在中国还式外国,红色一般象征喜庆日子,这个再中国绝大部分是这样!比方说结婚啊!干什么的都是红色象征红红火火!呵呵!但是有时候也有其他的特殊用法其它的常用的有!red figure赤字red ink赤字in the red亏损red-ink entry赤字分录red balance赤字差额而这些再汉语中带有红色的词语,却在英语中用其他方式表示这个我觉得很重!红糖brown sugar 红茶black tea 红榜honour roll 红豆love pea 红good luck 红利dividend 红事wedding red wine红酒red ruin火灾red battle血战red sky彩霞2) black在英语中经常有“不好的”、“坏的”、“邪恶的”这种意味。例如:black money:黑钱(指来源不正当而且没有向政府报税的钱)black market:黑市交易或黑市(意为暗中进行政府禁止买卖的商品或外汇的交易,或指进行违法的投机市场);由此派生出black market price:黑市价格另外,英语中,和红色墨水是记帐时的意思相反,黑色还可表示盈利。例如:black figure / in the black:盈利、赚钱、顺差又如black figure nation:国际收支顺差国interest in the black:应收利息3). blue在英语中通常表示不快乐、忧郁的情绪。如:in a blue mood:情绪低沉还常用来表示社会地位高、有权势或出身贵族或王族。如He is a real blue blood.(他是真正的贵族。)blue-eyed boys:受到管理当局宠爱和特别照顾的职工a blue moon:千载难逢的机会经济词汇中blue表示许多不同意思。如:blue book:蓝皮书blue-sky market:露天市场blue-collar workers:从事体力劳动的工人blue chip:热门证券blue button:喻指有权进入股票交易的经纪人blue return:蓝色所得税申报表(专供诚实的纳税人申报用)blue-chip rate:英国的优惠的信贷利率blue laws:蓝法(指禁止在星期日从事商业交易的美国法律)blue-sky law:蓝法(指美国各州为管理股票所制定的股票发行控制法)blue sky bargaining:漫天讨价(指谈判或其它交易中提出根本不切实际的或不合理的要求,使协议无法达成)4)green英语中的green常用来表示表示“嫉妒”,如green-eyed:嫉妒/眼红green还表示“新鲜”或没有经验、缺乏训练,如:green meat:鲜肉a green hand:新手green在财经领域还有下列意思:green back:美钞(因为美元背面为绿色)(用于口语)green power:“金钱的力量”或“财团”green stamp:指美国救济补助票,因印成绿色而得名green sheet指政府预算明细比较表green pound:绿色英镑(指共同体内部计算农产品价格而规定的高汇率英镑。)对了!大家别忘记了最熟悉的 green hand!5)white(白,看不见了,不用白色表了)在英语中white常使人联想起清白,如:white war:没有硝烟的战争,常指“经济竞争”。有些事物因其颜色为白而得white goods:指的是体积大、单价高的家用电器用具,这类物体常刷成白色,故名white money:银币white coal:水力white elephant:昂贵却派不上用场的物体或物主不需要但又无法处置之物white sale:大减价the white way:白光大街(指城里灯光灿烂的商业区)这几个太重要了!呵呵:lol::lol::lol:※ 来源:考研论坛 )其它颜色构成的词汇grey market:半黑市grey area:灰色地区(指失业严重地区)pink slip:解雇职工通知单yellow pages:黄页(指分类电话簿,并非指黄书。)Natural color;begin colour 自然色 Primary colour;fundamental colour 原色 Pure colour 纯色 Complementary colour 补色 Fashion colour;trend colour 流行色 International colour 国际流行色 Essential colour 基本色 Similar colour 同类色 Multicolour 多种色彩 Full colour 彩色 Plain colour 素色 Secondary color 混合色 Contract colour 对比色 Cold colour 冷色 Warm colour 暖色 Neutral colour;intermedium colour 中间色 Soft colour 柔和色 Rich in colour 浓色 Advancing colour 前进色 Receding colour 后退色 Expansive colour 膨胀色 Contracting colour 收缩色 Ground colour 底色 Surface colour 表面色 Transparent color 透明色 Metal colour 金属色 Accent colour 强调色 Colour matching;colour combination 配色 Colour mixing 调色red 红色 vermeil, ponceau 朱红 pink;soft red;

我觉得你应该考虑写下现实问题,比如金融危机下英语专业学生就业的机遇和挑战等。如今,金融危机肆虐,学生就业困难,特别是与国外交流更广泛的英语专业,但也存在一些机遇。因为机遇总是与挑战并存。。。。对了,还不知道你是写什么论文呢?本科?硕士?博士?
