摘 要

苗族是一个古老的名族，在中国的黔，桂，川等地区都有分布，而苗族的风俗文化也是让苗族屹立于世界民族之林的重要法宝。如今在“一带一路”的倡导下，国与国之间的民族风俗文化交流显得极为重要，而民族风俗文化翻译又是最关键的一个环节。近几年来，贵州大力发展旅游，苗族也是最能代表贵州的一个少数民族，但是对于苗族风俗文化翻译这一方面还存在严重不足，译文翻译错误，翻译没有系统的标准和规范，一定程度上阻碍了民族文化交流与发展。论文的创新之处在于，本人就是贵州苗族人，对苗族风俗文化有全方位的了解，有一定的发言权。本文通过翻译理论的指导，结合翻译策略，翻译方法，研究贵州苗族风俗文化翻译，了解其重要性，大力推进苗族风俗文化向外翻译宣传。
