【“会徽”英文咋说】
The new official emblem of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics was unveiled by organizers Monday, replacing an earlier design that was dropped after a complaint alleging plagiarism.
2020年东京奥运会组委会25日公布了新的官方会徽，此前的设计因为被指剽窃而被弃用。
这里的emblem of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics就是指的2020年东京奥运会会徽，奥运会会徽还可以用Olympic logo来表示，来看下面的报道：
Tokyo 2020 organizers unveiled a new Olympic logo featuring traditional Japanese designs on Monday, seven months after they were forced to scrap the original motif over accusations of plagiarism.
2020年东京奥运会组委会25日公布了新的奥运会会徽，具有传统的日本风格特色。7个月前，因原有的设计被指剽窃，奥组委决定弃用。
【新会徽style】
The new logo, chosen from more than 14,000 candidates, adopts a traditional indigo-blue checkered pattern called "ichimatsu moyo" that dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868).
新会徽从公开征集的超过1.4万幅作品中选出，采用了日本传统颜色靛蓝色矩形组合构成的“组市松纹”。“组市松纹” 在日本江户时期(1603-1868)已经广为人知。
"Composed of three varieties of rectangular shapes, the design represents different countries, cultures and ways of thinking. It incorporates the message of unity in diversity."
“它由3种不同类别的矩形组成，这一设计代表了不同的国家、文化和思维方式，传递出‘多元统一’的信息。”—东京奥运会组织方
【背景小知识】
在日本，长方形在日本江户时期已经广为人知，并且被称为“组市松纹/市松模样(ichimatsu moyo)”。同时图案使用的靛蓝色也是一种日本的典型传统色彩，象征着优雅和成熟。
【会徽名称/设计者】
The new indigo blue logo, called "Harmonized checkered emblem," was created by artist and architecture graduate Asao Tokolo, 47.
新的靛蓝色“和谐方格花纹”会徽由74岁的日本著名艺术家、设计师野老朝雄设计。
【设计者/组织方心声】
"I don't know what to say, my mind's gone blank,"
“(刚发现自己的设计胜出时)我不知道该说啥，我的大脑一片空白。”—野老朝雄
"It took me a long time to create this logo -- it's like my own child," —Asao Tokoro.
“我为这款设计投入了大量时间和精力，把它当成自己的孩子(一样倾注心血)。”—野老朝雄
"From today, these emblems will serve as the face of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games. I very much hope that the emblems will prove popular with people everywhere," said Ryohei Miyata, chairman of the Tokyo 2020 Emblems Selection Committee.
“从现在起，这就是东京奥运会和残奥运的‘门面’。我希望大家都喜欢这一会徽。”—东京奥运会会徽委员会委员长宫田亮平
【网友吐槽】
不过，不少日本网民并不买账。会徽刚刚公布不久就有人吐槽这款设计“太过平庸”。
"What a dull emblem," tweeted one user, with another dismissing it as a "bistro tablecloth."
“多么无趣的会徽”，一位网友在推特上写道，还有人说会徽就像“小酒馆的桌布”。
但也有网友表达了支持：
"This has a Japanese look so I guess it's a good choice," read another tweet.
“新会徽很有日本特色，是个不错的选择。”—推特网友
