1. Introduction
With the development of global economy, films and teleplays have been infiltrating through each field of society and have become one of the indispensable parts in people’s life. Meanwhile, with American teleplays, which are filled with humor, adventure, sarcasm, science fiction and era significance, increasingly penetrating the Chinese market, more and more youths enjoy watching them. Therefore, whether the youth can understand teleplays’ inner senses correctly, is of great concern. As can be seen, subtitle translation is a crucial adjective for plot clarification.
The Big Bang Theory, the background of which is “the genius scientist”, is an American sitcom film shot in 2007. The TV show is the story of a beautiful street smart restaurant waitress, Penny, and her interactions with four scientific otaku, who all have high IQ’s and do well in their own field of expertise, but have lower than average personal EQ. There is a strong contrast among them. The spark between such a pretty woman and the four otaku makes audiences laugh, as do the humorous dialogues by actors, which represents popular American culture. How we convey American popular culture in Chinese to audiences is a question worthy of being explored. In a word, a lot of pop culture contains culture-loaded words, which play a vital role in the subtitle translation and directly affect audiences’ understanding of the subtitle and series.

It mainly consists of three parts, where the first part shows the relationship between culture-loaded words and subtitle translation, the second part explores the classifications of culture-loaded words involved in The Big Bang Theory, and the third part probes into the translation strategies of culture-loaded words.源[自*751^`论\文'网·www.751com.cn/
