减词法
翻译中的省略，是指在完整保留原义的前提下，删除一些在译文显得多余甚至影响表达的词语。
为了使译文简洁、流畅，还可以从行文和修辞的角度，适当删除一些翻译过来显得累赘、罗嗦甚至可有可无的词语，同时又能无损于原义的完整性（如逻辑关系和语义衔接）与准确性。
减词一般用于以下两种情况：一是从语法角度进行减省；二是从修饰角度进行减省。
英汉两种语言在语法上差异较大，例如：英语有冠词，而汉语却没有；英语重形合、连接词较多，汉语重意合、连接词较少；英语中介词丰富，多达280多个，汉语中介词则较少，只有30来个；英语中经常使用代词，尤其是经常使用人称代词、关系代词等，而汉语中代词则用得较少；因此，英译汉时可根据具体情况将冠词、连接词、介词、代词略去，使译文练达晓畅。例如：
