摘　　要：Nowadays,cultural exchanges between China and the world are becoming more frequent with the predominant feature that increasing Chinese films and television dramas are going to the globe.Due to different cultural backgrounds,the translation of culturally-loaded words becomes a major difficulty in the subtitles.This article is based on the popular TV seriesEmpresses in the Palace in the Chinese version and the American version,dividing the culturally-loaded words in the play into:social culturallyloaded words,ecological culturally-loaded words,religious culturally-loaded words,material culturally-loaded words,and linguistic culturally-loaded words.Since the translation of subtitles is affected by time and space and other factors,its strategy also needs to be adjusted.This article analyzes four kinds of translation strategies adopted in the play respectively,i.e.transliteration,literal translation,free translation,omission,and alternative.
