Abstract

Certain patterns including correspondence and non-correspondence patterns are drawn from a comparative analysis on the linguistic characteristics of Russian and Chinese restrictive linguistic landscapes from the functional point of linguistic landscapes. In syntactic structure, imperative sentences are often used in Russian and Chinese restrictive linguistic landscapes; passive sentences and infinitive sentences are unique features of Russian syntax, while four-character structure is unique to Chinese syntax. The sentences started with "exclusive", "please" or "don't" have almost corresponding patterns, while the sentence started with "no" is a Chinese-specific pattern. This study aims to standardize the translation from Chinese linguistic landscape into Russian, provide reference for the writing and translation of Russian-Chinese linguistic landscapes, and provide reference for Russian-Chinese contrast and translation teaching.
