一些說明文件的翻譯

＃"異物"=>有什麼詞可以用嗎?

想寫的句子的中文:

"請檢查是否有異物卡在Driving module中"

(類似石頭卡進腳塌車的鏈條)

＃翻譯: "破損的磁條或膠帶需要更換或休補"

我想了兩種寫法

1."Replace or fix the magnetic strips or tapes if the strips and tapes

are damaged."

2."Replacing or fixing are necessary when the strips and tapes are damaged"

其中第一種寫法有沒有方式可讓"if"後的"strips"和"tapes"不要再出現一次?

我是想說用帶名詞...但念起來就是覺得怪怪的

＝>"Replace or fix the magnetic strips or tapes if they are damaged."

 #如何敘述機器運作正常?

例如: "(這項檢察的目的為)確保xxx運作正常"

我本來的想法是

"to make sure the xxx is functionable."

但後來上網查了一下,很像不能這樣用,也沒這個字

"to make sure the xxx is workable."

不確定能不能這樣寫,因為我過去習慣把"workable"用在"有效用". (The method is workable)

所以我目前是先寫

"To make sure the xxx work correctly."

#"翻譯: "檢察HMI及按鍵是否正常"

目前我看到文件前人的寫法是:

"Check HMI and buttons whether normal"

這句話我念起來覺得像 "不管是否正常,請檢察HMI和按鍵"

有沒有什麼建議的寫法?

"To make sure the HMI and buttons work correctly" ??

sanction

1."Government lifts Philippines sanctions"

2."France may sanction unfettered P2P downloads"

http://news.cnet.com/France-may-sanction-unfettered-P2P-downloads/2100-1030_3-6005860.html

This word "sanction" makes me confused.

I checked dictionary in Yahoo-Kimo.

It has different means like "批準" or "制裁",

Both definitions conflict to each other.

The second sentence "France may sanction unfettered P2P downloads"  

 could be explained in "法國可能會準許不受限制的P2P下載" or "法國可能會限制自由的P2P下載"   

Is it possible to recognize the suitable description? if I don't know the context.

     

rendition

When I asked several other blind study subjects to draw a spinning wheel, one particularly clever rendition appeared repeatedly.

由於不是很清楚"rendition"的意思,所以查了線上字典

奇摩:

n. 名詞

1. 譯文; 解釋
2. 表演; 演奏
3. 提供
4. 【古】引渡逃奴

The FreeDictionary

n.

1. The act of rendering.

2. An interpretation of a musical score or a dramatic piece.

3. A performance of a musical or dramatic work.

4. A translation, often interpretive.

5. A surrender.

 

基於以上的字典的解釋,可看出這句話的意思為

["當我請不同的盲人進行測試"畫轉轉動的圓"時,有種表示方式(畫法)不斷出現"]

 

但因為這個字我過去沒使用過,所以繼續上網搜尋其用法,找到的句子(大部分為新聞標題),我都沒辦法和字典裡或是前敘的例子兜上.不知道rendition在下面的例子中是什麼意思?

 

Russia, Ukraine and other former Soviet states are colluding in an illegal rendition programme, a new report from Amnesty International claims.

 

Wick, Aberdeen and Inverness airports were used in the CIA's rendition of terrorist suspects, a study has claimed.

 

North Scottish airports 'used for redition fighrs'
