孙杨听证会同传翻译漏洞频出,当值主席公开道歉
A judge in the high-profile anti-doping case involving Chinese Olympic swimmer Sun Yang has apologized for the translation services that rendered much of Sun's opening testimony unintelligible.
The case involving Sun Yang and the World Anti-Doping Agency, or WADA, opened at the Court of Arbitration for Sport, or CAS, in Montreux, Switzerland, on Friday morning, and was immediately thrown in to disarray due to the inept translation service on hand.
现场同传多次出现翻译错误
报道称,很多次,当孙杨被提问时,由于翻译的问题,现场的律师和三名仲裁员不得不出面干预。
孙杨的律师伊恩·米金(Ian Meakin)明确指出:“翻译太差了。”
"I'm sorry for leading but the translation is so bad."
他还表示,“如果你想让孙杨回答问题,翻译必须是正确的。(If you want him to answer your question, the translation must be correct.)”
比如,当WADA方律师询问孙杨曾接受过200多次的药检时,同声传译人员错将“200次药检”翻译成了“200毫升血液”。
律师米金在被同事告知这个翻译错误后,打断了孙杨的回答:
"Sorry, for the record, there is a problem with the translation, you asked that he's been tested 200 times, and that was translated into Chinese as 200 millilitres of blood," said Meakin. "If you want him to answer your question, the translation must be correct."
“很抱歉,要说明一句,翻译出了问题,你问他接受过200次药检,却被翻译成200毫升血液。如果你想让他回答你的问题,必须得把问题翻译正确。”
据中国日报报道,现场翻译语意破碎,通常令人难以理解。
Frequently, the translation was so fragmented it became nonsensical. On a few occasions when Sun was asked a question, his answers made no direct reference to the point at hand.
经常性地,翻译语意破碎,难以理解。有好几次,孙杨被提问时,他的回答都与问题没有直接关系。
孙杨说完总结陈词后,裁决小组主席弗朗哥·弗拉蒂尼法官对翻译问题进行了道歉。
"We have to apologize for the quality of the interpretation," said Frattini.
我们必须为翻译质量表示道歉。
"We have had a number of problems with the interpretation. It was a technical problem of preparing and arranging the Chinese-English interpretation, and maybe we will try to do some technical arrangement to do better."
今天的翻译出现了一些问题。这是准备中英翻译的过程中出现的技术问题,也许我们将来会做一些技术调整来改进。
孙杨指兴奋剂检查人员违规
In his closing statement, Sun said he was happy to abide by the strict liability that WADA and other agencies place on athletes, however he said authorities needed to do more to respect rights and privacy.
▌事件回顾
2018年9月4日晚,IDTM公司三名工作人员至孙杨住处对其进行赛外反兴奋剂检查,IDTM随后给国际泳联报告说“孙杨暴力抗检”,而孙杨表示“他全力配合检查,但检查过程中检查人员存在多项违规操作”。
2018年11月19日,国际泳联就此事在瑞士洛桑举行听证会,2019年1月3日,国际泳联反兴奋剂委员会做出裁决:IDTM此次执行的兴奋剂检查无效;孙杨没有兴奋剂违规行为。
两个月后,世界反兴奋剂机构(WADA)因不满裁决结果,向国际体育仲裁法庭提出上诉。
孙杨及其律师团队于今年7月19日发表声明“要求CAS(国际体育仲裁法庭)举行听证会时向公众开放,以求公开透明,证明自己的清白”。
