中文原文：

請附寄一張你最近照的護照相片。

錯誤譯文：

Please enclose a passport photograph that you have taken recently.

正確譯文：

Please enclose a passport photograph of yourself, which has been taken recently.

翻譯加油站：

to take a photograph 的意思是“給人照相”。而a photograph that you have taken recently的意思是“一張你最近給別人照的相片，而不是你自己的相片”。

“照片”或“相片”可以譯為photograph， photo， snapshot， snap或picture。其中snapshot和snap，尤其指“快照”。

“給人或物照相”有兩種表達方法。一是 to photograph sb / sth，強調“照相”的動作。二是 to take a photograph / photo / snapshot / snap / picture of sb / sth，說明“照了一張”。例如：這位媽媽給她的嬰兒拍照。The mother photographed her baby.

“讓人拍照”，用 to have one's photograph / photo / picture taken表示。例如：昨天我在頤和園讓人給我照了一張相片。Yesterday I had a picture taken in the Summer Palace.

“自拍”，用to have / get oneself photographed表示。而“集體合影”用 to have a group photo taken 表示。例如：他在家門口自拍照片。He had himself photographed in front of his house. 這些畢業生在離校前集體合影留念。The graduates had a group photo taken as a memento before they left school.

請比較下列句子。注意漢語的意思是模糊的，在英語中可以有不同的譯法：他討厭(給人或物) 照相。
1) He hates / detests photographing.
2) He hates / detests taking photographs. 他討厭(被人) 照相。He hates / detests being photographed.
