胜选演说 Victory Speech
上届美国大选是一次历史性的大选,奥巴马赢得了最后的胜利,成为美国历史上首位黑人总统。他随即在芝加哥发表了胜选演说。他说,美国已开始改变。他感谢自己的家庭和竞选团队,并对对手麦凯恩表示敬意。
请看外电的报道:
US President-elect Barack Obama promised Tuesday that change is coming to America as he gave a victory speech after becoming the first African-American to be elected to the White House.
美国当地时间周二刚刚当选的美国总统巴拉克?奥巴马在成为首位入主白宫的非洲裔美国人之后发表胜选演说,称美国迎来了变革时代。
上面的报道中,victory speech就是胜选演说的意思。总统候选人被正式提名为某党派候选人,或者在确认当选下任总统,但还没有正式就职前,都会发表victory speech。如:Bush delivers victory speech for 2nd term.(布什发表连任获胜演说),而竞选失利的一方发表的演说则叫做concession speech,即败选演说。
到当选总统正式入主白宫时,发表的就是inaugural address(就职演说)了。总统任期期满卸任时,会发表farewell speech(告别演说)。政治演说我们可以用stump speech来表示。
那么,speech和address有什么区别呢?一般来说,演说词在英语里是speech,用address这个词是比较少的。如果要说两者有什么差别的话,无非是风格上及使用场合上的区别。speech使用比较随意,而address从风格上来说更为庄重,指正式的致辞,例如总统发表的国情咨文演说,就要说成是State of the Union Address。
