Abstract:

The study of Spanish translation of TCM terminology is based on the exploration of the international communication of TCM and Chinese culture, which aims to improve the quality of the Spanish translation on TCM terminology and promote the communication of TCM culture. International Standard Chinese-Spanish Basic Nomenclature of Chinese Medicine is an authorized reference book on Spanish translation of TCM terms. Based on terminology theory, we comprehensively analyze this book and discuss the current situation, problems and difficulties of Spanish translation of TCM terms. In order to improve the multilingual information of TCM terms and the quality of TCM term translation, we propose to use corpus model of multilingual translation terms in European Union as reference for the establishment of a multilingual corpus on TCM terms.

Key words: translation analysis, TCM terminology, Chinese-Spanish corpus, data collection
