3. 转译为主语

在therebe句型中，如果主语后面有介词of引出的定语，汉译时常常把of引出的定语译成汉语的主语。如： 

* There are many sizes of computers.

计算机有很多尺寸。

* There are two kinds of video capture devices, analog and digital wares.

视频采集设备有两种：模拟采集设备和数字采集设备。

* There are three states of matter: solid, liquid and gas.

物质有三态：固态、液态和气态。

4. 转译为谓语

(1) 当形容词作定语，且句子的谓语是have等时，为了使译文更加明确、通顺， 汉译时常常把定语译成汉语句子的谓语。如：

* Aluminum alloy has low specific electrical resistance and high thermal conductivity.

铝合金的电阻很低，而导热性很高。
