If he is the envoy of cultural exchanges between the East and the West, no one should dare to disagree! He is Mr. Ji Xianlin, a famous Chinese linguist, writer and translator, who has a very deep knowledge of English. He is fluent not only in English, but also in a variety of other foreign languages, including Sanskrit, Pali, German and more than a dozen other national and regional languages.
Ji Xianlin's English writing is fluent and his translations are accurate. What is even more rare is his deep understanding of Western culture, which can effectively compare Chinese culture with Western culture, so that we can feel the differences between Eastern and Western cultures, so that we can establish respect between different cultures and effectively eliminate cultural barriers.
I have to say that Ji Xianlin is a very great linguist and translator, and some of his translations are conducted in English. For example, "The Ramayana", "The Art of Indian Painting", "The Mahabharata", "The Bhag**ad Gita" and other ancient Indian classics have been translated into English. His translations cover a wide range of fields, including literature, history, and religion, which have laid the foundation for his academic success.
Ji Xianlin has made remarkable achievements in English learning, which is inseparable from his long-term hard work and accumulation. He was introduced to English at an early age and showed a strong interest in learning. In middle school, he translated foreign language essays and published them in newspapers. While studying at Tsinghua University, he studied English Romantic poets under Professor Wu Mi. Later, Ji Xianlin went to study at the University of Göttingen in Germany, majoring in Sanskrit and Pali, while continuing to study English and German. During his study abroad, he read the original English works of many literary giants such as Shakespeare and Dickens, and at the same time, he also translated these works into Chinese, such as "The Complete Works of Shakespeare". His translations not only accurately convey the meaning of the original text, but also build a bridge between the East and the West.
Ji Xianlin believes that learning English requires long-term perseverance and hard work, as well as a Western cultural background, so that we can better understand the meaning behind the language and effectively improve our English level.
