Translation of Proper Nouns in English

Translation of proper nouns such as names in English. This translation material contains a lot of proper nouns such as names of people, places, organizations, and events, which are also aspects that need to be paid attention to in the translation process. The first is about the translation of English names. The author uses the \"English Dictionary of Names\" to translate. The dictionary contains common translations. However, because some of the names in the materials have their own conventional translations, the author still checked it on the Internet. Follow the inherent translation method to ensure the accuracy of the name translation. In addition, for those with more than two inherent translation methods, the author chose the more common and frequently used translation method. As for English place names, organization names, and event names, the author mainly searches the Internet to find translations, and then selects common translations; for organization names and event names, if the author can find more authoritative translations on the Internet, use the authoritative translations If an authoritative translation method is not found, the translation shall be carried out literally or freely with the translator’s annotation based on the content of the organization or event. In the process of this translation, the author realized the difficulty of translating various names. The author believes that when the English name can't find the corresponding translation, the transliteration can be used and the English name or zero translation can be used.
