ABSTRACT
With more international exchanges and cultural transmission carried out within itself and with the outside world, translation begins to play an ever more important role in the daily transactions of a multinational enterprise. Of the varied translation theories that have been emerging in recent years, the functionalist theory offers a completely new perspective on translation and provides very useful translation strategies for the localization of multinationals. The functionalists hold that translation is an intercultural action. Consequently, it is important to give the translators enough freedom to deal with the translation material and lay emphasis on translation quality at the same time. The translators would apply various localization strategies, such as adaptation, rewriting and imitation, to meet the need and cultural background of target readers. The paper makes a study of localization of the fast food giants’ websites to summarize some principles. The author hopes this paper can provide some suggestions for Chinese enterprise publicity, especially for the websites construction.
Keywords: functionalist theory; localization strategies; multinationals
