【昨日回顾】

Whorf came to believe in a sort of linguistic determinism which, in its strongest form, states that language imprisons the mind, and that the grammatical patterns in a language can produce far-reaching consequences for the culture of a society.  

Whorf逐渐接受/相信了某种语言决定论的观点;这种观点的极端说法是:语言禁锢了思想,语言的语法模式可以对某种社会文化产生深远的影响。

【长难句】

Native American languages are indeed different,so much so in fact that Navajo could be used by the US military as a code during World WarⅡ to send secret messages.

【句子分析】

1. 句子主干为主系表结构 = Native American languages / are/ indeed different. 美洲土著/本土语言非常与众不同.

2. so much so in fact that ….预计很多同学会逐字翻译进行理解,但逐字翻译显然不通,一般这种情况,都考虑为一种类似固定的说法或搭配,翻译理解时不要死盯该部分,只要能区分出该部分是修饰成分,抓住主要意思即可。例如:so much so 所指内容较虚,但in fact 表“事实上”,取该部分的主要意思即可。

so much so in fact that = so much different / in fact/ so that  = 如此与众不同/事实上/以至于 = 调整汉语的语序表达为:事实上如此与众不同以至于

3. that从句为结果状语从句。

【词的处理】

native adj. 本国的;土著的;天然的;与生俱来的;天赋的

indeed adv. 的确;实在;真正地;

military adj. 军事的;军人的;适于战争的

code n. 编码;密码;代码

【参考译文】

Native American languages are indeed different,so much so in fact that Navajo could be used by the US military as a code during World WarⅡto sand secret messages.

美洲土著语言的确十分特异,因此事实上Navajo在二战中能被美军用作密码发密码电报。

【明日预告】

The study of law has been recognized for centuries as a basic intellectual discipline in European universities. However, only in recent years has it become a feature of undergraduate programs in Canadian universities.
