A Research on the English Version of A Bite Of China From The Perspective of Skopos Theory

A Bite of China is a documentary about Chinese food culture. It not only describes China's rich food, but also shows the colorful rural life and spiritual connotation of Chinese people. It could be a window to show foreigners the beauty of China and the cultural traditions in every part of it. But the language in movies and TV shows has its distinctive features: the language in movies and TV shows is sound and fleeting, so the translation of movie subtitles must be appropriate and easy to understand. Skopos theory holds that the audience is the most important factor in determining the translation purpose. Therefore, the translation criterion under skopos theory has changed from “equivalence” to “appropriateness”, which enables translators to have greater autonomy in determining subtitle translation strategies on the premise of respecting the original text, thus not only achieving the communicative purpose of the target text, but also enabling the audience to understand the original film and television works.
