这一句中的and也构成另一种习惯用法,and和其后的名词起定语作用,修饰and前面的名词,words and deceit的意思是“谎话”而不是“空话和欺骗”,全句可译成:他说的全是谎话。也可从反面入手,译成:从他那儿根本掏不到真话。

我们讲过,翻译时不能把英语和汉语的词一个个等同起来,逐字对号照搬。本句的翻译中的“从”字明显是由from来的。如果不是翻译,谁也不会说某人“从”某个地方说话,所以,按中文习惯,本句应译为:“来帮帮我忙,”他在隔壁房间里喊道。那么,英语为什么用from而不用in呢?这是因为英语是从声音的角度考虑的,那是“从”隔壁房间传过来的,而汉语着眼的是人说话的地方。当然,此句也可以译成:“来帮帮我忙,”从隔壁房间传来他的喊叫声。汉译英也要注意符合英语的习惯,如:
