Yang Xiaona

Yang Xiaona is a Chinese translator who teaches English at the School of Foreign Languages of Lanzhou University of Technology. She holds a master's degree in Foreign Linguistics and Applied Linguistics from the School of Foreign Languages at Sichuan University, specializing in translation theory and practice, and has a solid grounding in linguistics and translation studies. Three of her translations are currently included in the database, all from the fantasy novel series Six of Crows by American author Leigh Bardugo: the two-volume edition and the individual volumes Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom. The series falls under foreign literature and follows a group of young people from very different backgrounds, blending adventure with morally grey characters. Her translations are fluent and delicate in style, preserving the original's fantasy atmosphere and character voices while striving for natural, readable Chinese. Public information is limited, and her birth and death years and further personal details are not recorded in the database.
