THE TRANSLATION OF HUMOR AND THE TACTICS OF HUMOR TRANSLATION
INTRODUCTION
Humor is everywhere, and it has close relationship with our daily life. It may appear in the speech of politician; it may appear in an advertisement or a new paper, even it may appear in our daily conversation. It brings us happiness, joy, love. In a word, humor has significant uses in various disciplines and in our daily lives. Therefore, humor has always been a hot topic among linguistics, philosophers, psychologists and it frequently discussed in the translation fields. Many scholars try to define the essence of humor from sociological and psychological, as well as from linguistic perspective. However, most books just present so
me of the historical theories or an individual theory. Now, there is still no agreement on how humor should define, nor is there agreement on how to appreciate or understand humor.
There are some specific reasons why humor study has been inadequate. On one hand, people fail to define humor, because people hold wrong understanding of humor. On the other hand, people define humor only from one perspective, such as psychological, philosophical, or sociological perspective. Their theories just are limited. Finally, humor varies by culture. Different countries have different culture. Even in one country, there still exist some differences. So many difficulties in comprehending humor, why there is still some scholars study it.
First, English humor and its translation has not received enough attention that it deserves in China. Little humor with distinctive linguistic and cultural characteristics has satisfactorily introduced to China; consequently, many Chinese people fail to appreciate the charm beauty of English humor.
Second, if we study humor well, we will have a good understanding of English language. E
nglish humor is one important part of English language. They have close contact.
Thirdly, the time we study English humor, we also appreciate the culture of other country. If we have a better understanding of other language, it will help us to communicate with foreigners.
The definition of humor
  The term “humor” has a long history. The original meaning of humor is
“liquid”，“fluid’’ or “moisture”．Later on，it got the meaning of a mood quality, either positive or negative．Defining humor is a hard task, and it is an impossible mission for many people. McGhee Goldstein(1983，I：v)says: “ there is still no agreement on how humor should be defined．Nor is there agreement on how appreciation or comprehension should be determined．”Nevertheless, the definitions listed dictionaries can shed some light on the general nature of humor．
