西洋乐器引进我国,比较正规的乐器正式的名称一般都是意译的。音译的有萨克斯管、萨克斯号及一些普及性弹拨乐器(如吉他)。这一点较国际上的情况有所不同(欧美各国,甚至日本,一般都是音译的)。某些乐器名称起初也曾有过音译的尝试,如把钢琴唤作“披亚诺”,但后来未能流传。 Western instruments introduced into our country, the formal name of the more formal instruments are generally free translation. Transliteration of the saxophone, saxophone and some universal plucked instruments (such as guitar). This is somewhat different from the international situation (European and American countries, even Japan, are generally transliterated). At first, some musical instruments were attempted transliteration, such as the piano called “Piano,” but then failed to spread.
