Abstract

With the development of international tourism in China and the globalization around the whole world, China is expected to receive an increasing number of tourists from home and abroad. Therefore, C-E tourism translation has become increasingly important. Therefore, properly translated tourism texts are not only the way to advertise China, but also a good channel to attract more tourists to come to China. It is important that people attach great importance to translation of tourism texts. In this thesis, the author tries to analyze the translation of Dalian tourism texts from the perspective of functionalist translation theory. In order to find out the problems existing in translation of tourism texts, the author takes Dalian tourism texts as the example. After analyzing the problems, the author puts forward several feasible methods and strategies for translation of tourism texts.Finally, the author draws a conclusion that the functionalist translation theory can guide the translation of tourism texts and make it more comprehensible and acceptable to tourists.
