Nida once pointed out one fact that from the perspective of linguistics, the most important distinction between English and Chinese sentences lies in the contrast between hypotaxis and parataxis.”(Nida, 1982:16) Therefore, the use of hypotaxis and parataxis can be seen almost everywhere in the field of Contrastive Study of translation. Then, how to master the key point of hypotaxis and parataxis for translation? Using the research approaches of literature survey and comparative analysis, this paper conducts a comparative study of hypotaxis and parataxis to further explore appropriate translation strategies in terms to language, culture difference and translation.
