中文要用中文解释,只从字面看,野跟朝对应,就是不在政位。在野的不一定反对,这个说法我接受。 ; n4 j& M# O9 x在野党等于首席反对党,这个意思没见过,也许是新兴的用法,或是惯用法,那就要看看出处在哪里了。

我的理解是除了governing party, 其他所有的政党都是反对党。而official opposition party 有一个在野的具有内阁架构的机构(government in waiting) (从VIKI的解释来看)所以被称为在野党,而其他的opposition party只能反对现政府。
中国跟西方的民主体系不同,对于official opposition party,没有官方翻译。翻成“在野党”,是按照台湾媒体的习惯翻译的。 7 l# c3 r. v) x" v# l9 t- }7 V翠花 发表于 2011-5-3 13:56

BTW, translation has nothing to do if you have something. There was the Chinese translation of "nuclear bomb" even before China built one.
