With the vigorous development of China ’s economy, especially after China's entry into the world trade organization, drug import and export industry faces unprecedented opportunities and challenges, and China has gradually become the global drug exporter.

Although traditional chinese medicine has long been spread abroad, a lot of translation of traditional Chinese medicine instruction of China still adopt the way of Chinese pinyin, which can neither introduce Chinese traditional medicine, nor attract foreign buyers.

The translation of the former will usually has one kind or another error in language, even chinglish, which confuse the foreigners; while the latter will use reference books, but they interpret without real understanding, which make the chinese medicine instructions beyond recognition. In general, the quality of the chinese medicine instructions translation is not high.
学习啦在线学习网 3. Research Questions/Problems to be Investigated
学习啦在线学习网 (1) What are the features of chinese medicine instructions in comparison with those of english ?
学习啦在线学习网 (2) What principle and standard should the translation of chinese medicine instructions comply with ?
4. Methodology and Data Collection
This research is planned to find out the principles for the translation of chinese medicine instructions. With this purpose, 3 chinese medicine instructions and their corresponding english versions are collected from pharmacies, hospitals and the internet.
学习啦在线学习网 According to the research questions, the research can be divided into two steps. Each step answers each research question. The first one is to find out the problems in the translation of medicine instructions through comparing the chinese medicine instructions and the translated english one.
学习啦在线学习网 Then, to solve these problems and improve the quality of the translation, the author applies the theory of Nida’s functional equivalence. With this theory as direction, the author tries to sum up some detailed translation strategies to guild the translation in their translation practices.
