OntheTranslationofCulture-loaded...摘要众所周知，中国文化博大精深，汉字一直以来都是对外发扬和传播中国传统文化的必要途径，而古文更是能体现中国传统文化的精髓。如果我们想更好地发扬中国文化，翻译中国文化经典之作将是一件不可或缺的事。在英译中国文化经典作品的过程中，精确翻译中国文化负载词是很重要的一项工作。只有当国外的读者能准确把握中国文化的要义的时候，我们才能做到更为有效地传播中国传统文化。《滕王阁序》是我国古代诗人王勃所作一篇著名的中国文学作品，是中国文学史上的经典。因此，在本篇论文中，文章将以罗经国教授翻译的《滕王阁序》的英译本为例来探讨翻译中国文化负载词需要掌握的基本原则和方法。作者将重点从对原文的理解和翻译技巧的应用这两个方面来分析罗经国教授的译文所采用的方法，希望在怎样准确翻译中国文化负载词这个问题上能有所启发。也希望通过这篇论文，作者能增强自己翻译中国传统文学作品的能力，尤其是在翻译文化负载词方面的能力，提升自己对中国传统文化的理解。关键词滕王阁序，文化负载词，翻译
