在每一个民族的语言里，或多或少有些关于更礼貌更客气的表达方法，也就是委婉语气表达 ( overtone of politeness ) 。西方人的委婉更是出了名的，英语学习者经过长期的英语学习和研究不难发现英语中有许多婉转口气的表达法，它使听话者觉得说话者更有涵养或更容易接受其内容，也使自己显得更有教养。那么如何讲有礼貌的英语呢？下面就用一些例子对此做一些阐述。

1 有关请求和命令的婉转说法

这一类言语行为在不同程度上具有冒犯性，因此需要用礼貌的

话把它淡化和缓解。试比较：

?Pass the water.（不礼貌）

?Pass the water, please. （使对方容易接受。）

?Would you pass the water? （试探受话人是否乐意）

?Could your possibly pass the water? （询问受话人是否有做某事的可能性，很客气）

?I would be extremely grateful if your would pass the water. （假设语气陈述

句，很有礼貌）

?I wonder if you would be good enough to pass the water. （假设语气，很委

婉)

受话人如何给对方答复，现分肯定回答和否定回答来研究。肯定回答：按礼貌程度由低到高排列。

?O.K.

?(Yes,) certainly.

?Yes, by all means.

?Of course. I'll be only too pleased to.

否定回答：当你被别人邀请参加聚会或其他等等活动而你因有事不能参加；或者人家有事相求你又确实帮不了，请求得不到满足，回答使发话人不悦，这时你不妨试试下面这些软否定：

No, I'm afraid I can't;

I'm afraid not, ...;

I'm afraid I can't at present because...;

I wish I could, but...;

I'd love to, but...;

I'd be glad to, but...;

Well, I'd love to, but actually,

It's very kind of you to say, but ...;

etc. 让我们用一些对话做为例子:

?A: We plan to go to the beach after class, want to come?

B: I'd love to, but Pro. Jones wants to speak with me.

?A: It never fails, It's raining hard outside and I'm stuck without an umbrella. B: I'd like to let you have mine, but I have to go out soon.

?A: Will you go to the movies with me tonight?

B: I'd love to, but I've caught a cold.

?A: Could you possibly do me a favor?

B: Sure, What is it?

A: I've got a problem. I have to fix my table and I don't have a hammer. Could I possibly borrow yours?

B: I'm sorry. I'm afraid I don't have one.

A: Oh .Do you know anybody who does?

B: Yes. You should call Charlie. I'm sure he'll be happy to lend you his.

A: Thank you. I'll call him right away.

?A: It's such a fine day, shall we go to the park for a walk?

B: I'd like to join you, but I find it chilly to walk outside in spite of the sun.

2 劝告的婉转法

试比较下面句子（按从直截了当到较有礼貌的含蓄的劝告表达

法排列）

? You ought to type this paper.( 有强加于人的意向 )

? You really should slow down at your office.

? You'd better tell him the truth.

? I'd advise you to take a vacation.

? You should take your parents' advice, they know what's best for you.

? If I were you , I'd buy another car without hesitation.

的） 4 如何利用某些时态婉转地表达自己种种想法从上面所举例子，我们不难发现英语中有些时态其实并不表示真正的时态，而是与英语中的委婉语气密不可分的，例如：

含蓄地达到劝告目

3 建议的表达法

试比较：

? I suggest you go for some advice.( 不

? I would suggest starting the work at once.

? You can read the novel now if you like.

? You could/might have a look at the novel.

? Why not call me next weekend?

( ? Why don't you find a decent job? ? Can /may/Could/might I suggest that...?

? It would be better if you copy that again.

? I wonder if I might make the suggestion that...

家的审慎的辞令风格)

够礼貌，用于熟悉的人）（较委婉）

给人选择余地，较客气）客气）

有礼貌的建议）（同 5 ））

（使受话人容易接受）（假设条件句，容易使人接受）

4.1 某些实意动词 ( want, wonder, think, hope 等 ) 的过去时、现在进

行时、过去进行时表现在时比直接用现在时态更婉转，如：

?A: Did you want me?

B: Yes, I wondered if you could give me some help.

?It's time you had a holiday.

?I wish you lived closer to us.

?If only you lent your book to me.

?I'm hoping you'll give us some advice.

?I'm wondering if I may have a word with you.

?I was wondering /wondered if you'd like to come out with me one evening.

?I was hoping / hoped you could send me some books.

上面所举例子实际上都可以用一般现在时来代替，但是就不如

用一般过去时；现在进行时或过去进行时委婉。如：

I was wondering whether you could help me do something on our wedding.

这是一句非常礼貌的话，比“ Could you help me do something on our wedding?" 要客气得多。它用的是过去进行时，表达的意思却是现在。这句话可以翻译

成：“ 不知能否劳驾您在我们婚礼上帮我做点事情？如果我们沿用传统的时态概念，把这句话改成后者，那么，整句话的语气大变，显得生硬。更遭的是，句子产生了两种负面意义：我不知道你帮不帮我做这件事；对你否帮我做这事，我持怀疑态度。而用过去进行时，则不

会产生以上错误理解。

4.2 一些情态动词或其他动词的过去时也用来表示委婉语气，实际上是虚拟语气，表假设、愿望、建议、猜测、怀疑而已。而没有时间上的差别，如：

?She might ( may )have missed the train. ( 既是虚拟语气，也表委婉 ) 。

?We might all have been indulging in an illusion.

?It might be an idea to try this one again.

?I would (will)suggest you copied this out again.

?Sally couldn't love him.

?It would be better if you wrote in ink..

?You'd(You had(have)) better be careful next time.

?I'd rather you finished this off before Friday.

?I'd rather you didn't look at the answer or ask others for help.

?This handbag could be Mary's.

?A: Could/might I smoke here?

B: Yes, of course you can. /No, I'm afraid not. ?Should I turn off the light??What should we do next?

?I should say he is just the right man for this job.

?I should think your approach is correct.

?I don't think he would be so absent －minded.

?It would be a pity to stop our work half －way.

?Would you like to stay here for the night?

?What would you advise me to do?

?If I had a chance, I'd major in economics.

?It's a pity if they should be so obstinate

?I wouldn't go there unless they should force me to go.

?We would reduce our price rather than lose the business.

假如上面例子的时态变成现在时的话，意思虽然没变，但语气就不如用用过去式婉转。这就需要多模仿例句，而不必过多地考虑语法。例如：

?Can you tell me how to get to the library?

Could you tell me how to get to the library?（更委婉）

?Will you please come and help me make up the missing class?

Would you please come and help me make up the missing class?（更委婉）

当然这些词的过去式在一定的上下文当中还是有时间差别的，这里就不多举例了。

英语的婉转语气表达还可借用其他许多方式，还让我们在学习中多多体会和积累。最后以一段关于一邮递员将一份有关儿子阵亡的电报送与一位母亲的委婉劝慰来减少它对这位母亲的打击的几句话结束此文。

“ Your son is dead. Maybe it ' s a mistake. Everybody makes a mistake, Mrs. Sandoval. Maybe it wasn ' t your son. Maybe it was somebody else. The telegram

says it was Juan Domingo. But maybe the telegram is wrong. ” 这儿你感觉到

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.

英语作文——如何通往成功

如何才能通往成功呢？不同的人有不同的看法。有些人认为成功来源于冒险和机遇。而另一些人认为成功是仔细的规划的结果。那到底究竟什么才是通往成功的关键呢？我想答案不是唯一的，每个人都有每个人成功的方式。在我看来，要想成功应该具备一下几个必要条件。首先，你要有非常专业的领域知识。如果想在一个方面取得成功，那么坚实的专业知识肯定是少不了的。就像sony的leader Ibuka和Morita精通电子技术，王安精通电脑方面的知识。其次，你要有敏锐的洞察力和开拓创新的精神。就像sony公司一样，如果不是Ibuka 和Morita两个人extraordinary intuitive，和他们不断的创新，生产出符合消费者需求的产品，那么sony恐怕不会有今天的令人adulation地位。再次，你必须要对未来做好详细的规划。王安谈及他的成功时说道，他的成功也是他在他们成长的每一步所做的决定的结果。他对未来进行了预测，并指定了详细的计划。最后，你必须要具备吃苦耐劳的精神，坚持不懈的奋斗。任何一个成功的例子之中都缺少不了艰辛的努力和付出。正如sony的Ibuka和Morita，正是因为他们极力地向别人推销他们的产品和日复一日的艰苦努力，才使得sony的电子产品为世人所认识所推崇。同时，在通往成功的路上，难免会遇到挫折，在这个时候，你要能够禁得住压力，勇敢地继续前进，才终将走向成功。当然，取得成功还有很多其他方面的因素。例如好的运气，良好的交流能力，好的帮手等等。每个人都渴望成功。但成功不只是嘴上说说便可以实现的，需要实际行动。相信只要我们明确目标，并为之不断学习和努力，每个人都会取得不错的成绩的。 The Way to Success How to lead to success? Different people have different perspectives. Some people believe that success comes from taking risks and chances. While others believe that success is the result of careful planning. What is the key to success in the end ? I think the answer may be not unique, everyone has a special way to success individually. In my opinion, to be successful should have the following necessary conditions. First of all, you need to have sufficient professional knowledge. If you want to be successful at one aspect, it is certainly indispensable to have solid expertise. As the leaders of sony, Ibuka and Morita, are proficient in electronics technology, and Wang An is proficient in computer knowledge. Secondly, you should have a keen insight and innovation spirit. Such as the sony company, without I buka’s and Morita’s extraordinary intuitive and their constant innovation, sony cannot produce so many products, which meet the desires of most consumers. Then sony probably will not have today’s enviable status. Furthermore, you have to do careful planning for the future. When Wang An said about his success, he said that his success is also the result of the decisions he made every stage of their growth. He predicted the future, and specified careful planning. Finally, you must have the spirit of hard-work and persistent struggle. Any lack of successful examples donot come from the hard-work and dedication. Sony's success is precisely the result of that Ibuka and Morita try their best to sell their products to others and work hard every day.It makes their electronic products world famous. Meanwhile, the road to success will inevitably encounter setbacks, at this time, you should be able to withstand the pressure, and to take heart of grace to move forward, then you will eventually succeed. Of course, there are many other aspects of the success factors. For example, good luck, excellent

英语中委婉语气的表达法

商务英语中的委婉表达与翻译

商务英语中的委婉表达与翻译商务英语是目前国际商务活动中一种特定的专门用途英语,它所涉及的范围较广、且具备独特的表现内容和语言现象。因此,商务英语中的委婉表达和翻译更是最为关键的一个部分。分析了商务英语委婉语的交际功能,以及对商务英语中的委婉表达与翻译进行了有效的探讨。标签：商务英语;委婉表达;翻译随着经济全球化的发展,世界各国之间的经济文化交流日趋频繁,而商务英语翻译作为不同国家的企业之间的交流手段和媒介,在沟通上发挥了至关重要的作用。商务人员在商务洽谈中常常借助委婉的预期和表达方式来作为重要的修辞手段,它能够含蓄的、礼貌的说出自己的观点和看法,给客户一定的建议和请求,从而有效的达到贸易双发所预期的目的。 1 委婉语的交际功能 1.1 避讳功能由于人类对于某些事物或现象的恐惧在语言表达时不愿言、不敢言,但有时又不得不表达出某种意思,于是人们便学会用委婉语来代替。例如各个民族中对于“死”的说法都有各自的委婉语。讲英语的国家的人们和许多民族一样,忌讳直接说。英语中的“死也有多种表达形式。人们常用“去了”(topassaway),“离别人”(todepart),“最后一觉”(finasl eep),得到安息(tohavefoundrest)等词来代替说某人 “死了”(todie)。 1.2 礼貌功能委婉语的另一个功能是在交际中避免冒昧和非礼,当迫不得已要涉及令人不快的事情时,应选择委婉的表达法以避免伤害对方的感情。在社交时,人们总讲究以礼相待,尽量避免非礼言行。使用委婉语,说话人不仅显得彬彬有礼,还因照顾了对方的情面往往可获取对方的好感和认可。如见到英(美)国老太太,开头就用老字似乎不太好,常常会惹得对方不理睬,于是一些委婉语就应运而生,例如:thelonger1Mng(年长者)等来代替“old age”(长者,前辈)和“senility”(老态龙钟) 等。

英语作文12 .机会与成功 Opportunity and Success 1) 有人说机会对取得成功起重要作用 2) 也有人说智慧和勤奋才是通向成功的惟一途径 3) 我的看法 Some deem that opportunity is the key to success. For example, those global business giants like Google owe their success to the huge opportunities they meet. Google's boom benefits from the frenzy of Internet. Another striking example is Zhang Liangying's overnight sensation. Super Girl Voice Contest, a golden opportunity for her, put the spotlight on her. Others argue that intelligence and diligence outweigh opportunity. There is solely a Google around the planet. The Internet superpower gains from its co-founders' advanced technology and keen insight into the global internet market. Zhang Liangying demonstrated her distinguished talent and the very wide vocal range. For this reason, she left an favorable impression with judges and won a host of diehard fans. In my eyes, success is strongly linked with both. The combination of these two factors breeds success. There are enormous opportunities beckoning us,. We must seize them and exert our all-out intelligence and ability.
