2、譯成并列分句，重復英語先行項
　　①...from his vest dangled a real gold watch chain, from which was suspended the secret insignia of the Order of Elks……背心上蕩著一根精致金表鏈，鏈上系著“共進會”徽章。
　　②He came within the meaning of a still newer term, which had sprung into general use among Americans in 1880... 他其實適合于一個更新名詞，那個名詞1880年在美國人中突然流行起來……

　　(二)譯成獨立句
　　①It has long been my wish to encounter one of the oldest civilizations in earth. I have come amidst you from Egypt, On the banks of the Nile, which also has a most ancient civilization. 我一直向往著要同世界最古老文明會晤。尼羅河畔埃及也有著最古老文明，我正是從那里來到你們中間。
　　②You've given Feldstyn, who dislikes me any how, the chance he was waiting for. 費爾德丁反正討厭我，你給他機會正是他求之不得。

　　(三)譯成狀語從句
　　①These actions, which have aroused universal and unreserved disapproval, must nevertheless give us a pause. 這些行動，雖已激起普遍而毫不掩飾反對，卻也使我們舉棋不定。（表讓步）
　　②In a dispute between two states with which one is friendly, try not to get involved. 在兩國發生爭端時，如與該兩國皆友好，則應避免卷入。（表條件）。
　　③Copper, which is used so widely for carrying electricity, offers very little resistance. 銅電阻很小，因此被廣泛用于輸電。（表結果）

　　(四)譯成定語詞組
　　As I came in, Gus Meyer, who owned the taxicad that used to stand at the corner of our street, waved to me from a table. 我進去時，那個開出租汽車古司．買耶坐在一張桌子那里向我招手，他車子經常就停在我們街角上。非限制性定語從句主要是譯成并列分句、獨立句和狀語從句這幾種形式，這與它作用——僅是對先行項提供一些補充說明——有關。難怪《新編英語語法》（修定本）指出：在意義上，非限制性定語從句相當于一個并列分句，可以完全脫離主句而獨立出現。
　　綜上舉例可以看出，定語從句可用“分述法”和“溶合法”進行翻譯，形式有定語詞組，并列分句、狀語從句、復合賓語等。這些形式是英譯漢主要“框架結構”，并非全部“標準答案”。在具體和翻譯實踐中，我們應該視其不同情況，選用不同形式或作靈活變通處理。
