摘要

美国黑人英语因被美国黑人广为使用而得名,实际上它的使用远远地超越了我们的想象,除黑人外在社会中下层的其它人群中也广泛地使用。
近二十年来 ,展现非洲裔美国人生活方方面面的电影和电视更是层出不穷。独具特色的黑人电影作为美国媒体演绎美国黑人文化的一个经典窗口 ,早已赢得了无数观众的青睐。美国电影中黑人演员在语言层面上体现了别具一格的黑人味道。美国黑人英语的语音、词汇模式、句法和修辞技巧被运用以展现不同的交际场景。
对于黑人英语的翻译，有不少研究者运用不同理论进行过分析。但是，目前为止，较少研究者运用功能对等原则分析过黑人英语在电影字幕中的翻译。
因此，本文旨在应用功能对等原则来对美国电影中黑人英语的字幕翻译进行分析。本文有四部分。第一部分是论文简介。第二部分简单介绍了功能对等原则，黑人英语以及黑人英语的特点。第三部分应用功能对等原则，从语音，语法，词汇，句式四方面分析了美国电影字幕中的黑人英语。第四部分是全文的总结。

关键词：黑人英语，功能对等原则，字幕翻译
