Chinese translation:双博士教授 及 教授
Explanation:
我不同意楼上/楼下的说法。翻译应该以源语言 (和它的文化) 为准。正因为德国人爱面子,注重头衔,所以方便的话,翻译的时候应该把这个文化的东西也翻出来。但重点是以方便为原则。如果翻出来的句子太赘,或可免了,否则要让对象语言的读者了解译文背后的文化。通常在德国任职教授的都是博士,所以 Prof. Dr. 中的 "Dr." 大概可以不翻,但双博士的头衔我看还是需要的。

只翻译教授头衔


Explanation:
按照功能语言学的说法,此处完全没必要将双博士或博士翻译出来。中国注重教授头衔,只把教授头衔翻译出来就已经达到目的了。德国人头衔很繁琐,两种文化的习惯不同,当然应该以目标语言为标准!个人看法。

disagree  Yan Xiong: 如果有三个或四个博士头衔的该怎么翻译呢?我看到过有4个博士头衔的教授。“四博士教授”看起来会不会有些怪?
