IntroductionEnglish is the most popular language all around the world. Most of loan-words in Chinese come from English in recent years, so a lot of people worry about the
9、 situation that English vocabulary influences on Chinese. Actually, it is the most important thing to know the function of language. That is communication. Some English words we cannot find the same meaning in Chinese words. At that time, we always use the English words in our speech directly or mak
10、e them translated. It is convenient to express meanings exactly. But sometimes it will be difficult to communicate with others when we abuse English words or English loan-words in Chinese. Besides, with the social development, more and more loan-words coming from English vocabulary are appearing, es
11、pecially the daily words. We often contact with these words but ignore them. To sum up, by analyzing the influence of English vocabulary on Chinese in daily life, we can know the advantage or disadvantage about it. We should have the critical attitude to the phenomenon.2. Literature ReviewThe influe
12、nce of English on Chinese is researched a lot in home state and a little in foreign countries. For instance, Ling Xinxing(2002) researched the influence of English on Chinese in the Postcolonial Context. He explored and analyzed the influence of English on standard Chinese and Hong Kong Chinese in m
13、orphology and syntax. He concluded the advantage and disadvantage of influence of English on Chinese. Lei Shunhai and Liu Shuhua(2004) studied the influence of English on Chinese since the reform and opening up of China. They analyzed the influence of loan-words on Chinese by researching the develop
14、ment of social economy and culture. Guo Hongjie(2005) explored the Europeanizing of Chinese grammar according to the linguistic and cognitive approach. Cao Wei(2004) wrote the definition of the neologism. He showed the types, characteristics, structures of the neologism. In these types, we can know
15、the new words including the loan-words. So the loan-word is not the same to the neologism. That is the reason why the author wrote the loan-word specially. However he did not say where the words that appear in his writing are from. In Zhao Yanfang(1996) research, it argued about the influence of wes
16、tern culture on modern Chinese vocabulary. She pointed out how the modern Chinese vocabulary became standard by the loan-word, including the English but she just showed us some transliterated words. Chen Wanfang(2005) reported that the influence of the English-Chinese translation on modern Chinese g
17、rammar. He researched the European Chinese grammar. To sum up, all of these studies did not report daily loan-words so much. Daily words are interesting and useful to life, study, and work.3. The Influence of Two Important AspectsIn daily life, people contact a lot with the Chinese words influenced
18、by the English words, but often ignore them because people think it is a part of their lives. It is resulted from the social development. In the diet, transportation, entertainment, daily necessities and network, people always contact and use such words. Diet is the most important thing to Chinese p
19、eople. The network of modern society is the most frequent tool used in entertainment. The diet vocabulary and network vocabulary from English vocabulary is shown on the impact of modern Chinese which are very good representative examples.3.1 The Internet vocabularyWith the popularity of computer and
20、 network development, network words appear and become popular. This is the inevitable phenomenon with the development of science and technology. English loan-words on Internet are more and more popular. The computer is connected as a whole, taking the whole world into a global village. A large numbe
21、r of computer words appear in peoples lives, such as 因特网 “Internet”, 软件 “software” and 下载 “download”. There is no doubt that many popular words are appearing online, such as BF (boyfriend), IC (I see) and CU (see you). They are often used by young people.Young people are active, sensitive, imitative
22、 and creative. They are easy to accept the new things, the novelty and the variation, catching up with the fashion and public personality. Language reflects the change of social development, especially active with each passing day and publicity of the network language. A lot of loan-words of network
23、 are different from the Han nationality characteristics in their own forms and content. These words are used in daily life frequently. Yimeier 伊妹儿 whose transliterating form is a computer language “e-mail”. It means the message is sent out by the computer network, also known as “computer mail”. But
24、in the young users, yimeier 伊妹儿 is more popular. Translating by the pronunciation of English words is more traditional, but the netizen is playing a new trick. That shows the human personality. For example, “e-mail” is often translated into yimei 伊妹儿, which has a humans personality. “Fans” is transl
25、ated into fensi 粉丝, representing the person who crazy about someone. It refers to a personal worship. Moreover, the modem which is used to surf on the Internet, is called shujuji 数据机 by Taiwanese. Chinese people, who live in main land, translate it into tiaozhijietiaoqi 调制解调器, but young people think
26、 them too hard to read. They simplify the pronunciation. Finally the modem is called mao猫.In addition, the loan-words are divided into two parts. One is the transliteration, and the other is translation. For instance, “Internet” is translated into yintewang 因特网. “Inter”, the transliteration, is tran
27、slated into yinte 因特, and “net” the translation, is translated into wang 网.3.2 The diet vocabularyIn Recent years, a lot of foreign restaurants do businesses in our country because of the economic globalization. People prefer to have dinner in these restaurants. McDonald, KFC or other American style
28、 drinking and foods are surrounding us. At the same time, the foreigners would love to take these drinking and foods. As the result, a great deal of foreign foods appears in Chinese menus. In order to understand conveniently, these drinking and foods are translated as follows:English WordsThe Chines

31、gnored. People even do not know that these words are translated from English words.4. Ways of the Influence4.1 TransliterationIn the last century, there are many Chinese words influenced from English. The Chinese transliterating words appear from reform and opening-up of China. Because of becoming t
32、he strong country, the international position of English is higher and higher. With the dissemination and introduction of culture, science and technology, lots of Chinese transliterating words enter into the modern life of China.Compared to the general translation, transliteration keeps the original pronunciation but it does not show the meaning of the original language. Transliterating words are used extensively in the progress of the translation of English into Chinese. It creates a new form that
