术语“中国功夫”的详细信息

英译术语:

Chinese gongfu

汉语语境:

中国南部的中国功夫是一种以你的姿势为主的武术（也就是你站立或者移动的方式），主要用于近身格斗。虎的元素主要体现在亦静亦动的“不动姿态”可能会产生“弹性或是内力”。这意味着，击打的力量并不是取决于你身体的力量，而是你身体的肌肉一同达到力量的顶点，一击就能导致内伤。

英语语境:

Southern Chinese gongfu is a martial art centered around your stance (i.e. the way you stand and move) and deals with very close contact fighting. The tiger element is characterized by a solid yet mobile ‘immovable stance'which produces ‘springy or internal strength'. This means that the power with which strikes are made do not depend on your physical strength but rather are a culmination of all your body's muscles working in unison to result in a single strike thus producing internal damage.

At that time human beings fought wild animals with clubs as their weapon, and thus acquired some experience on defense and attack.
