句子

这位股评家警告股民们不要抄底,因为股市仍然价格贵。

误译

正译

The stock market analyst warned the investors not to fish the bottom because the stock market was still expensive.

to touch the bottom line的意思是"触及底线”,指触及原则、规则、规定或数额的最低限度,与股民以最低价买股票没有关系。例如:

 

1. 他的言论因给历史人物抹黑和严重歪曲事实而触及人们道德价值观的底线。

His remarks have touched the bottom line of people’s moral values by smearing historical characters and grossly distorting the truth.

2. 规则是当价格触及底线时买入或补仓,而当价格触及顶线时卖出或卖空。

The rule is to buy or cover short when the prices touch the bottom line and sell or sell short when prices touch the top line.

3. 这些钢铁供应商深信价格已经触及底线,所以他们囤积不卖以期市场回暖。

4. 这本书的作者说在他的国家里,生产力已经触及底线,而贫穷已经达到了顶点。

"抄底"的意思与股市投资有关,指“在价格最低的时候买入股票”。英语可以译为to fish the bottom。本来,to fish the bottom 的意思是“在水底捕鱼”,其比喻意义是 to attempt to buy stocks at or near their lowest price,即“企图以最低价买股票”,相当于“抄底”。例如:

 

5. 我用鱼钩钓水底的鱼,用鸡肝作饵。

I fished the bottom with a hookusing chicken liver as bait.

6. 当这个公司的股票跌到最低价时,这些股民抄了底。

When the stocks of the company fell to their lowest prices, these investors fished the bottom.


"抄底”,还可以译为to snap up bargains。例如:

 

7. 这些日本投资者最近当楼价下跌时在美国楼市抄底。

These Japanese investors have recently snapped up bargains in U.S. housing market when prices were falling down.

 

“抄底者”英语可以译为bottom-fisher,bargain-hunter。例如:

 

8. 作为一个抄底者,这个股民一直在最近急剧跌价的股票中寻找低价股票。

As a bottom-fisher, the investor has been looking for bargains among stocks whose prices have recently dropped dramatically.

9. 作为一个真正忠实的抄底者,他有耐心等待到股票降到最低价再反弹。

As a truly dedicated bargain hunter, he has the patience to wait until stocks fall to their bottom prices before turning up.

 

“抄底价",就是“最低的价格”,即"超低价”。英语可以译为lowestprice, rock-bottom price 例如:

 

10. 由于许多外国航空公司和饭店在全球金融衰退中开始降价,一些中国人利用这个机会以抄底价到海外旅游。

As many airline companies and hotels in foreign countries have started to cut their prices amid the global financial downturn, some Chinese take advantage of the opportunity to embark on overseas travel at the lowest price.

11. 在金融危机时,这个中国投资者在美国以抄底价买了一座别墅。

During the financial crisisthe Chinese investor bought a villa at a rock-bottom price in the United States.

 

“抄底游”,英语可以译为 to take a tour at a rock-bottom price, to take a rock-bottom-price tour。例如:

 

12. 在淡季里,他去欧洲抄底游

During the slack season, he took a tour in Europe at a rock-bottom price.

13. 现在外币贬值,机票降价,正是抄底游的好时候。

14. 最近几个月,曰本和韩国的一些旅行社来华推广抄底游项目。
