【双语】国际翻译日由来及历年主题（文末有惊喜呦）

Each year, translators, interpreters and terminologists celebrate International Translation Day on 30 September, the feast of St. Jerome. A unifying theme is chosen each year and a competition is held to design a poster for FIT members to print and use to promote the day and join together in celebrating our professions.

为了弘扬本土语言的重要性，联合国大会将2019年确定为“国际本土语言年”（International Year of Indigenous Languages），并在决议中强调了保护、弘扬、复兴濒危语言的紧迫性。

2019年国际翻译日的主题为“翻译与本土语言”(Translation and Indigenous Languages)

以下为国际翻译者联合会（International Federation of Translators；Federation International des Traducteurs，简称FIT）发表的2019年国际翻译日主题文章《翻译与本土语言》。

September 30 celebrates the feast of St. Jerome, the Bible translator who is considered the patron saint of translators. St. Jerome was a priest from North-eastern Italy, who is known mostly for his endeavour of translating most of the Bible into Latin from the Greek manus of the New Testament. He also translated parts of the Hebrew Gospel into Greek. He was of Illyrian ancestry and his native tongue was the Illyrian dialect. He learnt Latin in school and was fluent in Greek and Hebrew, which he learnt from his studies and travels. Jerome died near Bethlehem on 30 September 420.

9月30日是通俗拉丁文本《圣经》译者圣杰罗姆的逝世日，他被视为笔译员的守护圣者。圣杰罗姆是意大利东北部的神父，因根据《新约圣经》的希腊文译本将大部分《圣经》翻译成拉丁文而闻名。他还将部分《希伯来福音书》翻译成希腊文。圣杰罗姆是伊利里亚人，母语是伊利里亚方言。他在学校学习了拉丁文，又在游学过程中自学了希腊文和希伯来文，能流利使用这两种语言。圣杰罗姆于420年9月30日在伯利恒附近去世。
