Abstract
Since the reform and opening up, China has had close exchanges and connections with foreign countries in various fields such as politics, economy, and culture. The Chinese government has been vigorously promoting the rule of law for many years, striving to build China into a rule of law society with good order. Law is the foundation and guarantee for smooth domestic and international exchanges and cooperation, and also a prerequisite for the development of a socialist harmonious society. Therefore, the translation of legal texts is not only conducive to promoting exchanges and cooperation between countries, but also facilitates the exchange of legal systems between different countries. In the case of English-Chinese bilingualism, both languages belong to different language families, and there are differences to varying degrees in language expression and thinking patterns based on cultural factors. Among them, the differences in static and dynamic English and Chinese are particularly prominent in legal text translation. Therefore, this article will compare and analyze the differences between English and Chinese through the original text and the translation, delve into the dynamic characteristics of Chinese and the static characteristics of English, and further analyze the similarities and differences between the two languages in order to provide reference for the translation of similar texts and translators.
