但是，这个“不折腾”怎么翻呢？据说难坏了各路翻译精英们。' M$ l6 O5 J; O; G, o* F! d" a3 A

在网上收集了几种译法：供各位参考，希望起到抛砖引玉的作用：% ?/ I3 {* Y. a- ?1 c- P
4 S3 e' |: |; h* Q+ U6 {! t g 1、don"t flip flop (别翻来倒去，朝三暮四); k3 x* M q3 j, ~/ M
: G3 ?. D) ^0 E! j, p6 y) i
2、don"t get sidetracked (别走岔路)
[/ C( h' a+ D3 f2 }1 m. }( l, c% V+ I ^3 G( Q1 n2 R, O, R
3、don"t sway back and forth (别反复)
( [# H8 k# P d; A( k, o" q* }: r: N
4、no dithering(不踌躇)

7、stop making trouble and wasting time

8、no self-consuming political movements (不搞自我消耗的政治运动)) j. k0 J. D9 U+ y1 x1 {* d
0 e# V( y I" ~ d4 Q& ]4 m 上述译法，觉得都不够准确，不够精彩，没有把“折腾”的全部意思表达出来。这里推荐一个译法，感觉比较恰当：
# w* Y3 q2 }$ O# K) Z+ c* x0 \ h, y. g
avoid self-inflicted setbacks (不折腾), z/ H* F0 F0 h9 h* z
Z: }4 ~) y) ~; Q0 S 原因是：0 v- e1 s0 _3 ]4 B8 o4 i
# B9 K) v* ~' A2 x1 S# v$ {
“self-inflicted” has the connotation of creating theunnecessarypain for one self.
8 J5 T+ f+ b$ _" D, X& `
' |( I# j' b4 U& J. @% { 折腾 in Hu"s speech has a strong connotation that such kindofsetback is self-seeking instead of being due to theinterferencefrom outside.
1 ^' L6 a7 ?9 W/ Y4 m u) `0 ^/ t5 t$ b% H2 c# P" ?- m& s
“Setback” is a much better word than “trouble”, whichanunseasoned translator would like to use in the firstinstance.“Setback” especially refers to the obstacle ordifficultyencountered in achieving a strategic goal. |
