Abstract:
Starting from the syntactic features of Medical English , namely extensive use of nominalization structure, passive voice and complex sentences, the present research attempts to carry out an in-depth study of Medical English translation on the sentence level guided by Nida 's Functional Equivalence Theory . It attempts to combine the translation theory with the translation practice of Medical English, with a view to improving students' translation proficiency and promoting Medical English teaching.
