Abstract: The confusion of English translation for terms in Traditional Chinese Medicine should be gradually regulated. We suggest that naturalization is prior to alienation, translation is prior to transliteration, and interpretation of translation and Latin translation should be avoided because of their lengthy wording.

Key words: Traditional Chinese Medicine, term, English translation
