Abstract: This paper aims to analyze the translation of idioms influenced by cultural differences and proposes some methods to solve the problems in the process of translation. This paper is divided into five parts, the first part and the last part are the introduction and conclusion. The second part is about the definition and origins of the idioms. Then, I will introduce the cultural differences reflected in the Chinese and English idioms, including the natural environments, historical backgrounds, customs and religious beliefs. The fourth part is about the solution I propose to solve the problems encountered in the translation: domestication and foreignization. I will explain the definition of the two terms and how these two methods can help us in our translation of idioms without losing the cultural meanings in them. With a full explanation, this paper will give us a better way of translating idioms and  a better access to other cultures.

  As a part of language, idioms are fixed which are formed in the development of language, including set phrases, sayings, proverbs, colloquialisms, allusions and slangs. Both Chinese and English are rich in idioms. When people from different cultural backgrounds communicate with each other, they must find that there are a lot of differences between them. With the globalization, people from various cultural backgrounds begin to interact with each other. In their communication, they will inevitably use these idioms, which inevitably contain a large amount of cultural characteristics and backgrounds, ranging from geography, climate, agriculture, history to economy, relationship and morality. Under this circumstance, people may find it hard to understand each other sometimes.
