但是，这个“不折腾”怎么翻呢？据说难坏了各路翻译精英们。

在网上收集了几种译法：供各位参考，希望起到抛砖引玉的作用：1 P# M) h0 ^/ v- L- h+ Z6 ?- |

1、don"t flip flop (别翻来倒去，朝三暮四)

5 y2 ~. O0 E0 w7 s4 K: B 上述译法，觉得都不够准确，不够精彩，没有把“折腾”的全部意思表达出来。这里推荐一个译法，感觉比较恰当：
- A2 O3 o, Y+ r
Y+ \; P0 l$ f; o3 C avoid self-inflicted setbacks (不折腾)
# G5 w. O. T( B8 C% ` G* G1 E6 v: j u- X, I
原因是：( k0 K+ q4 q# a$ m, d( A
# m' @5 R h. R- l8 w' V “self-inflicted” has the connotation of creating theunnecessarypain for one self.$ x, J; M, V3 ?, _9 P t
' t' X8 O& |( D( k; [9 \$ V2 `" o
折腾 in Hu"s speech has a strong connotation that such kindofsetback is self-seeking instead of being due to theinterferencefrom outside.
- Z: P. b( ]4 G
7 D& s' L9 `9 w) B) E5 [% O, K “Setback” is a much better word than “trouble”, whichanunseasoned translator would like to use in the firstinstance.“Setback” especially refers to the obstacle ordifficultyencountered in achieving a strategic goal. |
