定语从句的翻译
● 无论是限制性定语从句还是非限制性定语从句，翻译成汉语时是处理为前置定语还是后置定语，要视具体情况而定；有些定语从句和主句存在着状语关系，翻译时更要灵活对待。
● It was what sentimentalists, who deal in very big words, call a yearning after the ideal, and simply means that women are not satisfied until they have husbands and children on whom they may center affections, which are spent elsewhere, as it were, in small changes.
● It was what sentimentalists call a yearning after the ideal, and means that women are not satisfied until they have husbands and children.
● 大意是说：这就是情感主义者称之为对于理想爱情的渴望，简单说来，就是女人必须在有了丈夫和孩子之后才能感到满足。
● who引导的定语从句who deal in very big words 用来修饰sentimentalists (情感主义者)
● whom引导的定语从句on whom they may center affections用来修饰husbands and children
● which 引导的定语从句which are spent elsewhere, as it were, in small changes用来修饰affections
● 一般情感主义者喜欢用大字眼，称之为对于理想爱情的渴望。换言之，他们认为女人的情感平时只能零星发泄，必须有了丈夫和孩子，情感收聚起来有了归宿，自己才能得到满足。
前置法：
● 如果定语从句较短，限制能力较强，一般我们将此类定语从句译成带“的”的定语词组，放在被修饰的先行词的前面。
● Those who sacrifice themselves for the people’s cause are the real heroes of history.

● There are other techniques that might help you with your English studying.
● 那些为了人们的事业而牺牲自己的人是真正的历史英雄。
● 我们发现了一家菜肴非常好的餐馆。
● 还有另外一些能帮你学英语的方法。
后置法：
● 如果定语从句结构较为复杂。译成前置的定语短语显得太长而不符合汉语表达习惯时，我们往往把定语从句与主句分译，译成后置的并列分句。

溶合法：
● 当定语部分所给信息与被修饰词关系紧密、必不可少时，可将原来的语序打乱，用自己的话将原句中的主句与定语从句重新组织，译成一个独立的句子。
