The Interpretation in Cross-Cultural CommunicationChallenges and Strategies

Abstract

This paper is intended to explore the interpretation of cross-cultural communication (CCC) and analyze the difficulties experienced by interpreters in the CCC. This paper identifies two challenges in CCC, analyses their reasons, and develops two corresponding strategies. This study refers to previous research and combines it with authentic examples. Thus, this paper identifies challenges, including humor, the cultivation of talents, and certain intralingual and extralinguistic facts. The reason for the humor is various cultural backgrounds. At the same time, another reason for cultivating talents is the lack of relevant personnel cultivating programs. However, certain intralingual and extralinguistic facts summarize the whole, leading to an information gap. Overall, the proposed strategies are 1) information processing, which can mobilize the brain; 2) effort distribution, which needs to find out certain measures that are compatible with interpreters. This paper aims to provide a reference for the interpretation of CCC.
