Abstract:Some critics claim that pun cannot be translated ; however, in this paper, this point will be argued. The author will make the argument through two aspects: the theoretical and the practical one by introducing some supportive theories and illustrating examples from Shakespeare’s Four Comedies.
In addition, this paper will be mainly concerned about the translation skills employed in translating puns by giving their definitions and introducing them through examples. In order to do an analysis of these different skills, to find out their respective advantages and limitations, the author will make a contrastive analysis of the two versions of Shakespeare’s Four Comedies by Zhu Shenghao and Liang Shiqiu.
Key words: pun, translatability, translation skill, Zhu Shenghao, Liang Shiqiu, Shakespeare’s Four Comedies
摘要:本文将针对一些国内学者的双关语不可译观点做出反驳。为了证明双关语的可译性，作者将从两方面给予证明：理论层面和实践层面。在理论层面，作者将提出并介绍一些支持性的理论证据，而在实践层面，作者将从莎士比亚的四大喜剧中挑选出一些双关语的例证来进行阐释。
同时，本文还将重点讨论双关语的翻译技巧，通过实例说明一些大众普遍接受的双关语翻译技巧。为了了解不同翻译技巧的优点与不足之处，本文还将围绕朱生豪和梁实秋译本的翻译手法做一个对比分析。

The frequent communication and transmission of Chinese and Western literature makes translation very important and this inquires for more translators who have mastered more practical translation skills. Even though Chinese language cannot meet the stretch of English language, pun still can be translated by employing some skills, and this point has been proved in this paper. As an English major student, one needs not only to be familiar with these translation skills but also to make a choice in different situations to make the translation more acceptable.
