Introduction

With the deepening world economic integration and expansion of international business activities have become increasingly frequent, English as a common language in the world, in international business activities also play a pivotal role. Business English is mainly used for international trade and marketing and other business activities in a particular body of the English language. Business English is a branch of ESP, compared with ordinary English, but there is no essential difference in Business English with a specific "business characteristics." It is in terms of lexical, syntactic, stylistic and others have their own characteristics, and often involves many different business areas.

Business English for international marketing and trading activities set up a specialized body of the English language, compared with ordinary English, Business English, though not a difference in the nature, but there are some of its features, since English is suitable for business a genre of foreign economic trade, international investment, technology transfer and international business negotiations and other business areas, which has a highly practical and purposeful, with its own cultural characteristics, colors and stylistic features and other aspects of language Features.

1. Business English translation in the course of the problems

International Business English translation is a serious work of stakeholders, can not understand the point of language competence. Business English translation involves a wide range of disciplines and more terminology and more, ranging from slightly inattentive absurd, laughable, while causing huge economic losses, the consequences could be disastrous. For starters, we can translate the process into two phases, namely: "infiltration" and "revealing", in other words, understanding and expression. A good translator should be able to do "was infiltrated into" and "get through it."

1.1 "penetration."

"Infiltrate" specifically refers to the translator thorough understanding of the original, this step is the basis for the translation. Failure of translation, or that the wrong translation, the translator is often not really "got" the original. Generally, when the translator Translation "get in" the situation more than the Chinese to English. Sometimes this is https://www.sodocs.net/doc/fe3669141.html, because the translator did not understand English or the original, and to the Chinese-speaking Chinese people understand the Chinese generally not a problem. So, to really "infiltrate" the translator must have strong English language skills and relevant professional background knowledge, and well-known English and Chinese language and culture, otherwise the translator can not really "penetrate", so "revealing" is bound to regret.

1.2 "revealing."

In the process of translation, "Go" is not so easy, as "out" is not easy. There translation practice often have such experience: their true "entry" of the original text, which fully understand the original text, but "out" does not come, that is limited to controlling the target language knowledge and ability, hard-pressed to find the exact words to express the meaning of the original.

1.3 "infiltration" and "revealing."

"Infiltration" and "revealing" is a pair of opposites, the "infiltration" only "revealing", "infiltrated" the purpose is to better "revealing." "Revealing" is the "infiltration" results only "penetrate" no "revealing", "infiltrated" lost purpose and meaning. The translation process is continuous and properly solve various problems in two different languages mutually inconsistent process. Indeed the case, the translator continuously discover and solve problems. Translator trying to "infiltrate" No matter what the problem encountered in the "infiltration" in the process, have to solve the problem, "got to go." After the "dig", such as the successful "out" Nature is

good, but if the obstacles, the translator must remove obstacles, solve problems, and then "come out." But sometimes it does because of various reasons, especially in cultural reasons, the translator is difficult to be completely "out." "Get out" usually means a translator to understand the text, but in the target language word is not selected in the original language or peer peer language does not exist in the target language. Also, here's "get out" Unlike previously talked about "get out." "Get out" means here is that the translator to understand the original text, but stick to the original framework, not understanding the meaning of the original expression of the target language with bold closest peer language on the basis of the original. As a result, translated sentence is not very fluent, not authentic target language. "Get in" but "get out" of the second case, the translator to understand the text, but the text content in a unique exotic peer can not find words in the target language, so "not out come. " Here the "get out" is not the translator's incompetence, but cultural barriers (cultural obstruction) caused. Language is the carrier of cultural information, cultural information carried symbolic language is a huge symbolic system. Although there are various ethnic and cultural similarities, but this is relatively common, but the differences between different cultures is essential. In the process of translation, transmission of cultural information is relative, cultural information translatability limit is absolute. Cultural barriers exist forever in the translation process. Recognizing this, the translator if cultural barriers encountered in the translation process, it should calmly deal with this obstacle, through a variety of effective means to make more or less exotic cultural information is transmitted to the target language to go.

2The characteristics of Business English

2.2Integrated features

1)professional

Business English because it is a genre for this specialized field of international business and the formation of, and thus has a strong professional, including a large

number of professional terminology. Eg, chamber of commerce (Chamber of Commerce), credit standing (credit status), are highly professional features and specific meaning, only the professional staff before regular use, and truly understand its inherent meaning. In addition, professional and also includes some common English words in common areas after entering business English, will have a richer meaning of professionalism. Such as the "line" of the term, in ordinary English, we generally understood as "team, ranks" or "rope" and other means, and in Business English, having been given the professional characteristics, generally translated as "industry" or represent certain goods.

2)formal nature

As the general business English for more formal occasions, and therefore not easy to use the more colloquial words or sentences, especially for some of the commercial agreement negotiations and business documents, etc., in the language, in general very seriously and has very strict requirements and the use of specific words norm, sometimes to express the importance of documents or respect for the other side of the negotiations, but also the use of some of the more uncommon words or sentences, to highlight clerical formality. For example, in the choice of words, saying that "on" time, usually use "concerning", "as regards" instead of the common, more colloquial term "about", "on" and so on.

3)rigor

A business language features and formal rigor is of the same strain, due to the use of the occasion, and objects such as reasons to express great emphasis on the wording of rigor and careful overall terms, requiring language well organized, easy to understand avoid the use of some images of vocabulary, as well as the rich emotional vocabulary, making the overall style of language appear misplaced. Such as "hope", "wish to" require the use of such a term generally more positive "confirm" such as substitution, has adopted a firm tone, suggesting that a rigorous approach to business activities.

2.2Lexical features

1) a high frequency of use acronyms

Business parlance for some professional terms, generally do not need to use spelling style expressions, and use only the form of shrinking spell that does not cause confusion. Such as, a / cs pay. (Accounts payable, accounts payable), b / c (bills for collection, collection bills), bhc (bank holding company, a bank holding company), etc., in business activities simply by Jianpin can be.

2)and the use of foreign words in the ancient words

Foreign words from the French and Latin words in general, such as the terms (terms, conditions), suit (sue, sue), claim (right) and other words from the French word; and tare decisis (stare decisis), bona fide activity (charity ) comes from the Latin words. On the use of ancient words, generally "here", "there" as the root composed mainly synthetic adverbs, such as "heyeof (thus)", "hereby (below)" and so on.

3)the higher the chance of modal verbs

Modal verbs, some tone affirmative words often used in business English, and fully reflects the seriousness of business activities, the rigor of characteristics, such as the frequency of "should", "must" and other words tend to be higher, a clear indication of Business Activities directivity avoid messy phenomenon.

4)The term refers unambiguously

To ensure business documents such as rigor in business activities, the use of pronouns tend to be more cautious, less typically use ratios, even if there is, it usually refers to a sense of the overall business activities of basic expressions no effect.

5)the fast development of new words

Business English vocabulary system is not closed, but with changes in the economic development, as well as new business needs, at any time insertion of some new words, in order to continuously improve the overall business English vocabulary system. For example, with the widespread adoption of computerized accounting knowledge, there has been such as accounting computerization (Accounting) and

other new words.

2.3 The phrase Features

1)the high number of noun phrases

Business English phrase use, frequency of use of the verb phrase significantly lower than noun phrases, verb phrases and even some in the use of direct conversion to noun phrases. Such as noun phrase "a good line of hardware" and the like, as well as "provision of the services" substitute "provision services" such as verb phrases into

a noun phrase is applied to the phenomenon of the sentence.

2)specifically the use of phrases

Business English often use specialized words to indicate the meaning of the convention, such as "copetence strategy (competitive strategy)", "for and on behalf of (on behalf of someone)" and so on.

3)The use of the phrase substitution clause

Given the characteristics of Business English easier to understand in the statement required in a specific sentence, as to avoid long complex sentences, generally considered to replace the clause with the phrase to make the sentence as simple as possible to better understand the meaning of the sentence.

2.4 the sentence Features

Use in a sentence, the general emphasis on the integrity of business English, rarely omitted to avoid sentence meaning vague, ambiguous. Meanwhile, the general use of the active voice, and commonly present tense, while rarely used in the future; generally used to direct expression, rarely indirect expression, especially in some roundabout way of expression implicit in Business English sentences are rare. For example, the sentence "this enterprise will not employ theperson who is more than 60 years old", it is very concise. In addition, the use of statements expressing general tone, especially in the business contract, a statement highlights the formal tone and seriousness; the sentence is Long Short Sentence coexist, although some long

sentence structure is more complex, but in the overall sentence meaning On still losing rigor, clarity.

3 Business English translation skills

Business English translation, you should first fully understand the characteristics of business English and master the basic professional terminology, should also understand and be familiar with the cultural background of business English belongs, and language usage under such a cultural background, and through translation before and after comparison of two different cultural backgrounds, using the most precise words, phrases and sentences, such as the Business English reflect over the meaning of the conversion. In particular translation, should have the following skills:

3.1The words and phrases translation skills

1)abbreviations and specialized vocabulary (phrases) should regulate the use of

In translation, for abbreviations and specialized vocabulary (phrases) should be paid special attention, especially for large vocabulary of business documents, etc. If the same abbreviated words or specialized vocabulary (phrases) in commercial documents and other sports appear in front The frequency is higher, we must ensure the consistency of translation around and avoid the front and back of the vocabulary is not uniform, causing commercial misunderstanding. Because in Business English translation, this is inevitable due to cultural differences there are some deviations, or as a result of the translated text is more Kuse, difficult to understand, if the substitution phenomenon occurs in the same words, it can easily lead to business misunderstanding, especially https://www.sodocs.net/doc/fe3669141.html, for some of the commercial negotiations, it may be due to the difference between a word, the results differ miles.

2)the word (phrase) should be rigorous and precise use

Words (phrase) the use, to ensure simple and easy to understand, based on the same time we must ensure the accuracy and rigor of terms, such as acronyms, like

mentioned above, as well as in professional terms (phrase) to use the should be avoided because of the randomness or inaccurate words (phrase) on the use, for commercial activities adversely affected.

3)using the conversion translation

In translation, in order to ensure a more understandable semantics, should make the appropriate adjustments and conversion on the part of speech according to the words (phrase) of usage scenarios, in order to ensure that the translated sentence can be more adapted to English usage. As in "we realize the need that some sectors must to industrialize (We recognize that some departments need to implement industrialization)" This sentence, the word "need", he transformed from a noun in the English sentence for Chinese verbs "need."

4)using addition and subtraction word translation

In translation, the translated sentence should be based on the need to add some appropriate words, to maintain the integrity of the sentence. Add words to ensure that does not change the semantics of the original, and selects the most accurate words, try to make the addition and subtraction word sentence meaning after optimization.

3.2 The sentence translation skills

1)Conversion of Translation

Business English is a courtesy of a strong stylistic characteristics, therefore, the use of language, and sometimes contain more tactful colors to express the general use of passive sentences, when translated into English, it should be noted as the case may be passive sentences into active sentences, so that the translated sentence is more in line with Chinese grammar habits and habits of expression. For example, the sentence "the wares should be transport by sea (cargo should be transported by sea)", if directly translated into "maritime cargo transport should be" and other sentences, the translation will appear ironic outcome.

2)anti-translation

Chinese and English expression used to exist on a different, longer sentences in

English in general will be the most important part of the sentence to the front, while the Chinese are accustomed to every level to promote the most important means placed at the end of the sentence, in When translated, should be fully aware of this, try to make long sentences translated long sentences in line with the Chinese habit of expression through the use of a certain word association, highlighting key part of the meaning of the sentence, and to ensure consistency before and after the translation of the meaning.

Conclusion

Involved in a wide range of professional and has a unique linguistic phenomenon and expressive content stylistic complexity. Business English translation requirements translator has a wealth of knowledge of business theory and business practice, in order to improve the quality of translation. Translation itself must have certain conditions.

However, in the real translation process. For a word or a sentence. Wrestling for a long time are not given a satisfactory result. Sometimes finally figured it out also feel less than ideal. Thus, the Chinese language skills and the ability to understand the size of the Chinese directly affect the quality of the translation. Work hard to learn Chinese. Lay the foundation for the Chinese translation is very important.

Second. English language ability is stronger. Comprehensive knowledge of grammar and lots of vocabulary indispensable. If only a lot of vocabulary without good knowledge of English grammar. Understanding the process of translation the translator must be full of mistakes. And irrelevant. So we want to improve the accuracy of accuracy in the English translation of the English sentence comprehension and expression in English translation in English.

Third. To a wide range of knowledge.

商务英语翻译:商务英语五大实用翻译技巧

商务英语翻译:商务英语五大实用翻译技巧商务英语是为国际商务活动这一特定的专业学科服务的专门用途英语,所涉及的专业范围很广,并具有独特的语言现象和表现内容、文体复杂。商务英语翻译要求翻译者具备丰富的商务理论和商务实践知识,为了提高翻译质量,翻译者必须具备一定的自身条件: 第一,翻译者的汉语功底要好 很多人容易忽视这一点,认为汉语是自己的母语,应付翻译中的问题应该是绰绰有余的。然而,在真正的翻译过程中,常常为了一个词语或者一个句型,冥思苦想了半天也得不到一个满意的结果。由此可见,汉语表达能力和对汉语理解能力的大小直接影响翻译的好坏。下功夫学好汉语,打好汉语基础对于翻译是十分重要的。 第二,英语语言能力要强 全面的语法知识和大量的词汇量缺一不可。如果只有大量的词汇量,而没有较好的英语语法知识,翻译过程中译者的理解肯定是错误百出,牛头不对马嘴。因此,我们要提高在英汉翻译中对于英文句子理解的准确性及汉英翻译中英文表达的准确性。 第三,知识面要广 商务英语翻译中要很好的做到这一点,就要掌握商务理论和贸易实务等理论知识及贸易实践经验。同时译者还要具有丰富的百科知识,对天文地理、古今中外不说通晓,至少也要了解其中的一些基本知识。没有一定的常识,即使语言水平再高,也是难以胜任翻译工作的。

以下介绍的是商务英语中主要的五大实用翻译技巧: 一、一词多义 同一个词,由于语境不同,其词义可千差万别。 例: 1、They cannot obtain credit at all in the trade. 他们生意信誉已荡然无存。 2、They have opened the covering credit with the Bank of China,London. 他们已从伦敦中国银行开立了有关信用证。 同一个词credit,而在不同的语境中,意思大有不同。 二、词类转译 词类转译是国际商务翻译中常见的译词技巧。常见的有名词与动词、介词与动词的互相转译。 例: 1、Before the payment of these tariffs, the imported goods will bein the custody of the customs. 交关税前,进口货物由海关保管。( 由于语法限制,只有用名词形式,但译成汉语时,”payment”译作“交”) 2 、We should advise you to get in touch with them for your requirements. 建议你方与他们取得联系,洽购所需商品。 三、词义引伸

商务英语翻译技巧

商务英语翻译技巧 摘要 商务英语(Business English)是一种含有商务理论和实用商务的理论。在经济信息日益发达的现代社会,随着国际贸易的发展,商务英语翻译的作用越来越明显。本文,大致分为五个部分对商务英语翻译技巧进行分析。文章第一部分概括了商务英语以及商务英语翻译;第二部分分别从商务英语的文体特征、语言特点对其进行分析;之后三个部分分别介绍了翻译的方法和翻译的原则。最后进行总结。得出商务英语的翻译机巧和方法。 关键字:商务英语;翻译技巧;特点;文体特征 前言 商务英语是以国际间的商务往来为基础的语言交流,商务英语包括的范围比较广,例如:金融方面的英语、贸易英语、还有一些专业的英语等。这也说明了商务英语所涉及的范围比较广泛,涉及各行各业,这也就决定了从事商务英语翻译的人不仅仅需要有扎实的英语基本功,还有对其他方面的英语进行了解,这样一来才能使交易双方能够更好地沟通,完成交易。 现如今,整个世界融为了一个整体,各个国家之间的贸易往来逐渐丰富,目前在国际间最通用的就是英语。商务英语要求翻译者更加的精确、对等,因为商务英语中会涉及到很多文件、条款等信息,所以必须要精确。只有这样才能达到双方活动的顺利进行。尤其在我国,中西方文化差异较大,更应该注意这方面的问题。一字之差就容易铸成大错。所以,做好商务英语的翻译工作尤为重要。本文针对这一问题展开讨论,分析了商务英语的翻译技巧。 商务英语及商务英语翻译的概括 商务英语涉及范围很广,包括的种类也十分多。大部分跟国际商务活动有关的例如:国际贸易、会计、金融等方面所用到的英语都属于商务英语的范围。它涉及的领域主要包括对外贸易、招商引资、国际旅游、海外投资以及国际运输等方面。除了领域广泛之外,它还包括许多专业的英语例如:广告英语、法律英语、应用文英语、包装英语等。因此,伴随着国际贸易的范围不断的扩大,越来越多的人,开始加入到翻译的这一事业之中。 对商务英语的翻译,在很长时间以来备受关注,商务英语翻译工作也是一项十分复杂的工作,由于其用途的广泛性和特殊要性,就决定了商务英语的翻译工作不能仅仅局限于传统的翻译中务词汇和具有较好的商务语法基础,这些是一个翻译者应该具备的原则和技巧,不能仅仅依靠“信、达、雅”的翻译要求来完成商务英语的翻译工作,必须依照商务文件的愿意,把它翻译的既能清楚的表达意义,又能够符合商务双方的语言习惯。在翻译的过程中一定要从实际情况出发,做到具体问题具体分析。 商务英语的特点 2.1商务英语的文体特征 2.1.1思维具有逻辑性,朴实无华 正式体英语的从句层次复杂,句子长度通常高于非正式英语。长句分词、独立主格结构的频繁使用是书面语体的典型特征,它们适合于表达多层次的复杂的逻辑关系,可以充分完整地表达相互关联的意义,这种效果是短句无法达到的。由于商务函电常要表示某些条款相互成立、互为条件,或对某些一连串的具有因果关系的事件进行叙述,因此,这种语体就非常适合这种要求。例如: The work hereof shall be commenced in compliance with the construction work of Party A’s plant, and shall be completed within thirty days after the complet ion of Party A’s plant including the completion of inner part of the plant when the plant be in the condition that trial run for air conditioning mechanism is possible.

商务英语翻译技巧整理

一.翻译原则 1.忠实原则,即信息对等而不是语意对等 Eg.每年的两届交易会,把全国几乎所有的外贸公司和出口商品集中起来,统一到广州展出,成交,减少了我们到国外推销的支出,外商也可以只派少数人到会选购,不必花大人力到我各口岸寻找生意,节省了买卖双方的费用,深受国外经营各种商品的中小客商的欢迎. The biannual Guangzhou Fair is attended by almost all foreign trade companies in China and presents a great number of export commodities to buyers from abroad. Many transactions are concluded at the fair. As sellers and buyers can all gather in one place to conduct trade talks, the fair apparently saves them a great deal of time and money. This explains why the Guangzhou Fair has long been popular among overseas traders. 2. 准确原则---选词准确,概念表达准确,数码单位准确. 如: 保税区≠Free trade zone 保税仓库≠Tarriff-free warehouse Eg.客商从开发区企业分得的利润汇出境外时,免征所得税. Profits gained by the investors and businessmen from the Development Zone terprises will be exempted from tax when remitted out of China. Eg.如贵方能将尿素报价降至每吨1200美元,我们可以订购150至180吨. If you can reduce your price of Urea to 1,200 dollars per ton, we may consider placing an order of 150-180 tons. 3.统一原则 译名,概念,术语应始终保持统一,不能随意改变译名. 如:基本建设≠basic construction 基本价格≠basic price 4.文化融入 A.注意文化因素---了解中西方文化差异 1)思维方式的不同 中国文化重权威与历史,西方重现实与事实---偏实用. 中国文化重整体,西方偏分析性思维 2) 语言的不同 中国语言重修饰,偏笼统与含糊,西方语言重具体和准确. 谦辞在许多场合被采用,体现了中国文化背景下语用特征之一.

商务英语信函的主要文体特征及翻译技巧

商务英语信函的主要文体特征及翻译技巧 xx商务英语信函的主要文体特征及翻译技巧 以下是由为大家收集出来的商务英语信函的主要文体特征及翻译技巧,希望能够帮到大家。 国际贸易竞争日益激烈的今天,为了通过发送商务信函达到有效交流,传达友好情感,增加商务合作机会的目的,商务信函必须在风格和语言上发生变化。现代商务信函的主要文体特征可以概括为以下五点: 内容的清晰性、表达的简洁性、词语的专业性、风格的正式性、措辞的礼貌性。因此我们要将商务信函本身的特点和英语的语言特点结合起来,分析和总结其翻译思路和技巧。一、内容的清晰性发送商务信函的目的在于建立商务往来关系,就某一细节进行商讨,努力达成共识,以便促进一项商务活动的开展。要达到这些目的,首先必须保证阅读者能够清楚了解写信人的意图,迂回或闪烁其辞的话语会让读信人产生不信任,甚至会怀疑对方的语言表达能力,对进一步开展商务活动很不利。模棱两可的话轻则阻碍读信人对信函意思的理解,重则会对发函方造成不必要的损失。例如: As to the steamers sailing fromHongkong to San Francisco,we have bimonthly directservices. 此处bimonthly 有歧义,可以是twicea month 或者once two month. 故读信人就迷惑了,可

以改写为We have two direct sailings everymonth from Hongkong to San Francisco. 翻译要保留原文的清晰度相当重要。由于在较为正式的场合中,为了将一概念定义完整和清楚,英文常常用关联词将几个短句并在一起形成一个长句,而中文无法照样只用一句话来翻译,即使这样译了也很难达到通顺和自然。这时,我们就采取将长句按特定的事情发展的顺序拆分成两个或两个以上的小句子的方式来翻译。必要时还要增加或省略一些词语,让整段文字结构更合理、内容更清楚。例如: The prices stated are based oncurrent freight rates,any increase or decrease infreight rates at time of shipment is to be the benefitof the buyer,with the seller assuming the payment ofall transportation charges to the point or place of delivery.例句中以一个介词with 来分界,译为“合同价格是以运费计算,装运时运费的增减均属买方。卖方则承担至交货地的全部运费”。在原文中with 分句是一个状语,翻译时采用中国人平铺直叙的思维方式,用分述的方式把这个句子拆成两句,清楚地表达了原文的语言信息。 是不是一封书信只要包含了全部关键信息就可以成为一封好的书信了呢? 拟信人还应注意语言组织的条理性,或按事情发展的先后顺序,或按各要素的重要性排序编写。东扯一句,西扯一句的写法

商务英语信函特点及翻译

全日制英语学习,选择尚语国际语言村https://www.sodocs.net/doc/fe3669141.html, 随着全球商务活动日益频繁,互联网迅猛发展,商务信函成为国际贸易中客户沟通的主要方式,广泛运用于外贸、海外资本运营、国际货运等商务活动。它涵盖询问、洽谈、答复,涉及到询盘、报盘、发盘、还盘、交易达成、支付方式、装运等业务细节,是商务活动中不可或缺的沟通媒介,高质量的商务英语信函翻译对国际商务活动的重要性不言而喻。 一、商务信函的语言特点 与其他文体相比,商务信函具有商务文体正式、简洁、专业、礼貌等特点。 (一)正式。商务信函是公文性质函件,用词布局上比普通信函讲究,较多使用书面语。如请您给我发送一份申请表格,在此表示感谢。一般使用We would be grateful if you could send me an application form。而不使用Could you send me an application form? Thank you!。文体布局上商务信函也比一般信函严谨规范,有其特定布局结构。如道歉信通常开头致歉(We must apologize for …/We apologize for…),接下来解释事情发生的原因,寻求对方谅解(this is owing to…),在结尾处再次致歉(We hope that this has not caused you any inconvenience./With apologies once again.)一般道歉信都会遵循这样层层递进的规范布局,翻译时也要注意符合其布局。 (二)简洁。商务人士求实重效率。商务信函必须言简意赅,目的突出,层次分明。一般信件开头就说明来意,如:We are writing to enquire about the prices of your cabinets/ we are writing in connection with the advertisement in the newspaper yesterday. 如果开头东拉西扯,会使繁忙的商务人士无暇向下,不明所以。此外信件中措辞也较少使用冗繁的词语句式。例:Please contact us whenever we can be helpful. (如需帮助请告知)而一般不会使用Whenever there is anything we can be of assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us。 (三)专业。商务信函用于业内往来,广泛使用商业术语和缩略语,包括外贸业务术语、公司名称及单证等,规范程度很高。常见如外贸术语CIF(Cost, Insurance and Freight) 成本、运费加保险价,FCA(Free carrier)货交承运人,B/L(Bill of Loading)运输单等在信函中都大量使用。此外商务信函也常使用here,where, there 与in, by, with, after 等构成复合词如hereafter(after this),wherein (in which) therefrom (from that)。如:Seller is bound to reimburse Buyer for any loss sustained therefrom. 长期的商务书信交流中逐步形成了商务英语信函句式的套语和行话。如:收到对方询盘的套话:Thank you for your letter of 23 July, asking if we sell photocopiers.希望得到对方回函、订单时的套话:Looking forward to your favorable /early reply. (四)礼貌。西方人交往中非常重视态度,商务信函应礼貌友好,礼貌可以使对方阅读后心生好感,从而保持友好贸易关系。在信函中采用“You attitude”,从对方角度考虑问题,较多使用第二人称,较少使用

商务英语的特征与翻译

商务英语的特征及翻译 张芸芸 摘要:随着我国和其他国家经济往来越来月频繁,各种商贸企业蓬勃发展起来。在经济交往中,商务英语翻译显得举足轻重,翻译得当及否可能关系到经济交流的失败,因此,提高商务英语翻译的准确性更是显得尤为重要。本文为商务英语翻译工作者阐述了商务英语的特征并提供了一些翻译的技巧,希望能对翻译工作者有所帮助。当然在商务英语翻译中还有许多其他的翻译技巧,所以翻译工作者应该从实际出发具体问题具体分析,选择最佳的翻译技巧,善于运用翻译技巧,这样才能使翻译的信息更加准确完美,才可以更好地发挥商务英语翻译在国际商务活动中的作用。 关键词:商务英语、商务英语的特征、商务英语翻译、翻译技巧 一、商务英语的概念 商务英语是指人们在商务活动中所使用的英语,在西方国家通常称为Business English。八十年代在我国,商务英语主要用于对贸易,因而又称为外贸英语(Foreign Trade English)。(李大立2002) 商务英语以适应各种职场生活的语言要求为主要目的,涉及商务活动的各个层面,以传授西方企业经营理念、工作方式、处事方法、生活习惯等为主要内容的一种职业英语。(杨梅、岳秀红,2004) 英语本身就是一种国际通用的语言,实用性非常强,而商务英语成为了国际间经济合作和商务交流的重要工具,其重要性尤为明显,可以说离开了商务英语知识技能,国际合作简直寸步难行,商

务英语的重要性可见一斑。那么了解商务英语的特点和翻译至关重要。 二、商务英语的特征。 (一)词汇特点。 (1)专门术语及缩略词的大量使用。专业术语具有国际通用性,其意义准确、单一、无歧义且不带有个人感情色彩,一般不需要借助上下文来理解。商务英语是属于商务领域中的一种语言,其语言应用的显著特点之一就是专业性强,词汇及内容及专业密切相关,承载着丰富的商务理论和商务实践方面的信息。例如:用来反映海洋运输货物保险险别主要包括平安险(Free from Particular Average)、水渍险(With Particular Average)和一切险(All Risks)。这些都是商务英语中特有的一种表达,每种险别都有行内明确规定的责任及除外责任。除了专业性强外,商务活动的频繁开展使得商务英语中产生了一些约定俗成的专业术语和缩略词,对于这些术语和概念,从事国际商务活动的人们都应该熟悉,并将随着商务交往的频繁而日益增加。 (2)商务英语用词强调正式规范。商务英语用词明白、易懂、正式规范、简短达意、语言平实。用词方面多以意义相同或相近的书面词语代替基本词汇,和口语词汇,保证所用词语具有国际通用性,但又不能过于非正式。这种正式词语常见于各种商务文书,以示庄重和严肃,同时避免不必要的重复,使意义更加清楚简明。 (3)语言具体明确。及普通英语相比,商务英语在语言表达方面很重要的不同之处在于,商务英语要表达准确,不能言过其实,内容必须实事求是,尤其要保证数据的精确和术语的严格准确,否则就会引起纠纷。例如商品的某些质量和特征要用准确的数字,避
