【大澳门威尼斯人赌场官网3月15日讯】大陆把“反分裂法”翻译成“Anti-Secession Law”,这样的译法很多人都会觉得怪怪的，事实上也确实如此。

关于secession的含义和解释，本人专门查阅了微软的Encata百科全书、网上最大的“维基百科全书”、以及梁实秋“远东英汉大辞典”。。。结论都是一样的，那就是：

secession这个词如果首字母大写的话，就只能是一个专有名词，解释是“1860-1861年美国南方11州退出联邦的行动”—-只有在小写时，它才具备“脱离或退出某一机构、组织”的意思。

但“反分裂法”的英文本偏偏在标题和开篇中使用了Anti-Secession Law这样的英文译法，显然这只能作“反对美国南方州脱离联邦的法律”理解—-说白了就是中国人去狗拿耗子多管美国人历史上的闲事。

其实即使secession这个词首字母小写，正确的英文解释也只能是the act of withdrawing from an organization, union, or political entity（根据维基百科全书，上面还举了不少secession的具体例子），显然它并不适用于用来描述“台湾同中国分离”这样的特殊情况，因为毕竟“中国”这个概念从来就不是什么“organization, union, or political entity”，除了大陆并不承认、台湾有权单方面修改的“中华民国宪法”，台湾更不可能和“中国”存在什么事实存在并被台湾此前认可的政治契约合同关系。

所以说白了，大陆把“反分裂”正式翻译成Anti-Secession，把“分裂”翻译成secession，根本是出于对secession这个英文词汇的错误理解和荒谬套用。

—-除了对“反分裂”的明显翻译错误之外，明眼人还不难注意到这份“反分裂法”英文版本和中文版本的两处有趣差别：

第一处：英文版没有犯中文版围绕“中国”和“国家”的常识性逻辑错误，因为英文版中的“中国”使用的是China这个词，而“国家”则一律翻译成State。由于在英文中Country（国家）和State（政权）的明显不同定义，本人指出的中文版“中国”和“国家”概念模糊不清的漏洞至少没有在英文版中重复—-虽然这样刻意区分China和State，却又等于在事实上承认了“One China, two states”这一中共自己多次拒绝的政治概念。

第二处：相比中文版“国家得采取非和平方式”那个语蔫不详，基本应当作“可以”、“许可”解释的“得”字而言，“反分裂法”英文版在这里明确地使用了一个Shall字，也就是“应该”“必须”的意思，这显然要比中文版口气重很多，怪不得美日台会对此强烈反应了。

显然，第一处的中英文版本差别主要是因为中文自身“国家”语义的含糊所致。。。但第二处中英文版本的显然不同就很值得人们重视了，因为这明显出于故意。

本人认为这反映了中共新领导层既想利用“反分裂法”警告美台、多少提前划出动武红线；却又实在不愿意自己给自己套上“到时候必须动武”政治枷锁的两难心态—-既然要对“台独势力”有所警告又希望美国不要误判局势，所以英文版就非得把话说死不可；但
既然对内中共却完全不想因此承担“武力反分裂”的天大责任和义务，那么其将来作为司法解释基础的中文版本就显然必须含糊其辞、留有余地，万不可使用“应当、必须”这样到时候中共自己也无法回避的限定词。

“反分裂法”中英文版本的明显不同，再次暴露了“反分裂法”的内在法理和逻辑不足，尤其是中共“反分裂立法”的对外政治恐吓、对内不承担风险色厉内荏实质。
