翻译常用词解析-尽管A与B不协调怎么翻？

原文：尽管城市发展与生态环境不协调，

原译文：Despite the lack of coordination between urban development and ecological environment,

改：Despite the incongruity between urban development and ecological environment,

分析：the lack of coordination是缺乏协调，没有问题，但不够简洁，不如incongruity简洁表示不相称，不协调。一个词比三个词简洁。

The incongruity of something is its strangeness when considered together with other aspects of a situation. 不协调; 不适宜; 不相称

• She smiled at the incongruity of the question.

她面对这样突兀的问题露出了微笑。

incongruity的形容词 incongruous 也很常用。

Someone or something that is incongruous seems strange when considered together with other aspects of a situation. 不协调的

• She was small and fragile and looked incongruous in an army uniform.

她人瘦小，穿上军装显得很不协调。
