〔記者董柏廷/台北報導〕尖端出版預計於10月6日發行中國知名作家顧漫暢銷小說《何以笙簫默》新裝版,尚未正式上市,官方臉書粉絲專頁「尖端EYE書坊」日前發布的一則公告,卻在出版界與網路社群引發軒然大波。尖端出版在貼文中表示,本次重新出版是依據作者顧漫的明確要求,內文完整維持原作文字,不因不同地區的慣用語而改寫。包含「公交車」、「屏幕」、「鼠標」、「打印」等中國常用詞彙皆全數保留,編輯部則另外在書中收錄用語對照表協助閱讀,例如註記「網絡」對應「網路」、「互聯網」對應「網際網路」等。
公告貼文發出後迅速延燒,引起大量台灣讀者與藝文界人士反彈。作家宋尚緯留言質疑,尊重應當是互相的,如果作者不懂得不同國家地區的文字文化差異,台灣讀者為何要單方面尊重其個人習慣與文化。他指出,同一個概念進入不同語言和地區,本來就會產生在地譯法與表達方式,作品可以有作者,但語言不屬於任何一個作者。「英語體系的國家會這樣要求嗎?日文體系的國家會這樣要求嗎?這很明顯就是吃你豆腐看你軟瞧不起你而已啊」。他認為,尊重原作者並不代表必須交出自己的語言習慣,連用詞都要原封不動接受指定,這本質上是在要求別人服從其語言權威,甚至直言不如直接出版簡體版。

作家謝知橋亦留言諷刺,這種做法等於沒有翻譯,只是打開文書處理軟體進行「簡轉繁」,並質疑若未來該書翻譯為英文版,作者是否也會堅持不能使用「print」而必須寫成「打印」。
許多讀者更在留言區表達不滿,認為既然購買台灣出版社發行的繁體中文版,期待的就是符合台灣語境與在地習慣的閱讀體驗,若只是單純字體轉換並保留中國日常詞彙,甚至還要讀者回頭翻看對照表,不僅失去了引進繁體版的意義,也形同出版社退讓了專業編輯與把關的責任。
