International College of Henan University of Technology, Zhengzhou, Henan 450052 Abstract: With the increase of bilingual signs in urban public places, pragmatic failures and irregularities also exist in various English-translated signs. Based on Newmark's text type theory, this paper analyzes the functions and text types of public signs, and discusses the pragmatic translation strategies of Chinese and English public signs from the perspectives of pragmatic language equivalence and social pragmatic equivalence according to different types of public signs. The translation of public signs is not only a translation and pragmatic issue, but also a social and cultural issue, which deserves further discussion.
