涉外商务英语合同的语言特色体现在以下几个方面:

第一部分、用词方面

多用正式或法律上的用词,与口头表述不同,合同是法律性的正式书面文件,使用正式的、法律的用词是必要的。合同起草者应多加强这方面的学习。比如:

1、At the request of Party B, Party A agrees to send technicians to assist Party B to install the equipment.

应乙方要求,甲方同意派遣技术人员帮助乙方安装设备。assist 较 help 正式;

2、The personnel shall not to partake in any political activities in Iraq.

所有人员不得参加伊拉克国内的任何政治活动。partake in 较 take part in 正式;

3、The Employer shall render correct technical guidance to the personnel.

雇主应该对有关人员给予正确技术指导。render 较give 正式;

4、Party A shall repatriate the patient to China and bear the cost of his passage to Guangzhou.

甲方应将病人遣返中国并负责其返回广州的旅费。repatriate 较 send back 正式;

5、This Contract shall be governed by and construed

in accordance with the laws of China.

本合同受中国法律管辖,并按中国法律解释。construe 较 explain,interpret 正式;

6、The Employer may object to and require the Contractor to replace forthwith any of its authorized representatives who is incompetent.

雇主认为承包人委派的授权代表不合格时,可以反对并要求立即撤换。require较ask正式;公文体forthwith 较 at once 正式;

7、The Chairperson may convene an interim meeting based on a proposal made by one-third of the total number of directors.

董事长可以根据董事会过1/3董事的提议而召集临时董事会议。convene,interim 都是正式用词。

8、In case one party desires to sell or assign all or part of its investment subscribed, the other party shall have the preemptive right.

如一方想出售或转让其投资之全部或部分,另一方有优先购买权。法律用词assign 较 transfer 正式。

9、In processing transactions, the manufacturers shall never have title either to the materials or the finished products.

加工贸易中,厂方无论是对原料还是成品都无所有权。法律用词title 较 ownership 正式。

10、The term "Effective date" means the date on which this Agreement is duly executed by the parties hereto.

“生效期”指双方合同签字的日子。法律用词execute 较 sign 正式。

第二部分、用词方面

多使用"here","there","where"等前缀,下面这么多是不是有点头昏眼花?初学时确实容易搞混,告诉你个小窍门,here 代表 this,there 代表 that,where 代表 what/which,就容易记多了。

hereafter = after this time;今后

hereby = by means/reason of this;特此

herein = in this;此中,于此

hereinafter = later in this contract;在下文

thereafter = afterwards;此后,后来

thereby = by that means;因此;由此;在那方面

therein = from that;在那里;在那点上

thereinafter = later in the same contract;以下;在下文

whereby = by what; by which;由是;凭那个

wherein = in what; in which;在哪里;在哪点上

……

第三部分、用词方面

多用"shall"代替"will"或"should"加强语气和强制力。合同中,shall并非单纯表示将来时,而常用来表示法律上可强制执行的义务,具有约束力,宜译为“应”、“应该”、“必须”;

will无论语气还是强制力要比shall弱,宜译为“将”、“原”、“要”;should通常只用来表示语气较强的假设、比如“万一”。

1、This Contract shall become effective upon and from the date on which it is signed.

本合同签字生效。

2、This Contract shall be written in English in four copies. Each party shall keep two copies.

本合同应以英文写成,一式四份,双方各持两份。

第四部分、用语方面

一、力求严谨,明白无误:

1、The following documents shall be deemed to form and be read and construed as an integral part of this

Contract.

下列文件应被认为、读作、解释为本合同的组成部分;

2、This Contract can only be altered, amended or supplemented in accordance with documents signed and sealed by authorized representatives of both parties.

本合同只能按照双方授权代表签名盖章的文件进行修改或增补;

3、All activities of ABC Co. shall be governed by the laws, decrees and pertinent rules and regulations of China.

ABC公司的一切活动必须受中国的法律、法令和有关规章条例的管辖。

二、多用主动语态,少用被动语态:

商务英语合同的翻译准则及技巧

商务英语合同的翻译准则及技巧 奈达的功能对等翻译标准强调的是内容和文体风格上达到最切近的自然对等,它在合同翻译中有较大的直接指导意义。笔者认为,为达到国际商务英语合同翻译时的功能对等,应坚持以下两个准则。 1.准确严谨 由于国际商务合同的专业性和兼容性越来越强,因此,合同的内容也就日趋精确和完备。这就要求译者在翻译时应把准确严谨作为首要标准,尤其是合同中的法律术语和关键词语的翻译更应予以特别重视,仅仅忠实原文远远不够,而应严格贴近合同所涉及的专业性内容。以offer一词为例,将它翻译为提供、提议是正确的,但在国际商务合同种,offer一般只能译为要约、报盘。此外,为了避免产生歧义,有些词语的翻译必须保持同一种译法,尤其是合同中的专业术语和关键词语都有着严格的法律涵义,翻译时一定要透彻理解原文的内容要求,准确完整地传达合同文件的精神实质。以e_clusive为例,e_clusive territory应译为独占区域,表示许可方不得再把同样内容的技术许可协议授予该地域内的任何第三方。但是,e_clusive contract则译为专销合同,表示制造商与转卖商之间签订的专销协议,规定转卖商不得同时经销竞争对手的产品。 2.规范通顺

所谓规范通顺,就是把理解了的东西,用规范通顺的、合乎合同语言要求的文字(中文)表达出来。因此,要使合同语言规范通顺,译者就要特别注意合同的词语运用规范,符合合同文体中约定俗成的含义。例如,将documentary bill at sight译为即期付有单据的票据,虽然表达的意思符合原文要求,但概念并不清晰,因为票据本身的涵义是广义的,在国际商务合同中的票据主要指汇票,因此,应译为跟单汇票。此外,国际商务合同的译文不仅要符合合同语言的要求和规律,还应做到通顺,着重体现在条理清晰上。国际商务合同的条款往往比较繁复,翻译时应首先弄清全文的条例,对各条款间的制约关系和逻辑关系须仔细琢磨,注意译文语言的语句结构,不拘泥于原文的词句结构和句法框框的限制。 国际商务英语合同属于应用翻译,以传递信息为主要目的。因此,根据奈达的功能对等理论,在翻译信息型文本的商务英语合同时,应采用的基本技巧是归化,主要表现在功能性归化和行业性归化两个方面。 1.功能性归化 国际商务英语合同自身的文体特征和鲜明的告知与规定功能,决定了这类文本翻译的特殊要求和目的,即:遣词用字、行文布局必须符合译文的形式和规范,在翻译技巧上毫无例外地一律采用归化的方法。因而,它的翻译不可能也无必要遵循原文的语言形式,原文仅仅提供信息,语言表达必须顺从译文形式,追

漫谈商务英语合同的翻译和理解

15 《商场现代化》2007年5月(上旬刊)总第502期 一、注意合同中的词语翻译和理解1.谨慎选用极易混淆的词语 英译商务合同时,常常由于选词不当而倒致词不达意或者意思模棱两可,有时甚至表达的是完全不同的含义。因此了解与掌握极易混淆的词语的区别是极为重要的,是提高英译质量的关键因素之一。例如 change A to B 与 change A into B 英译“把 A 改为 B”用“change A to B”,英译“把 A 折合成/兑换成 B”用“change A into B”,两者不可混淆。 例1:双方同意把交货期改为 8 月并将美元折合成人民币。Both parties agree to change the time of shipment to August andchange US dollar into Renminbi. 2.对商务英语合同中的词语切勿望文生义 对商务英语合同词语和句子的理解切不可望文生义,这样才能避免误解和误译。因为在商务英语中许多词语己经有了不同于一般英语的专业意义。 例2: The documents will he presented to you against youracceptance of the draft in the usual way. 凭你方按通常的方式承兑汇票,单据才能被转交给对方。句中的“against”不能理解为“反对、逆”之义,是“凭借、根据”的意思;“ acceptance”不能理解为“接受”之义,而是“承兑”的意思。 二、慎重翻译和理解合同的关键细目 实践证明,英译合同中容易出现差错的地方,一般来说,不是大的陈述性条款。而恰恰是一些关键的细目.比如:金钱、时间、数量等。为了避免出差错,在英译合同时,常常使用一些有限定作用的结构来界定细目所指定的确切范围。 1.限定责任 众所周知,合同中要明确规定双方的责任。为英译出双方责任的权限与范围,常常使用连词和介词的固定结构。现把最常用的此类结构举例说明如下。 and/or 常用 and/or 英译合同中"甲和乙+甲或乙"的内容,这样就可避免漏译其中的一部分。 例3:如果上述货物对船舶和(或)船上其它货物造成任何损害,托运人应负全责。 The shipper shall be liable for all damagecaused by such goods to the ship and/or cargo on board. 2.限定金额 为避免金额数量的差漏、伪造或涂改,英译时常用以下措施严格把关。大写文字重复金额 英译金额须在小写之后,在括号内 用大写文字重复该金额,即使原文合同中没有大写,英译时也有必要加上大写。在大写文字前加上"SAY",意为"大写";在最后加上"ONLY".意思为"整"。 必须注意:小写与大写的金额数量要一致。 例4:聘方须每月付给受聘方美元 500 元整。 Party A shallpay Party B a monthly salary of US ¥ 500 (SAY FIVE HUNDRED USDOLLARS ONLY). 三、要特别注意合同中的介词和介词短语的翻译和理解商务英语合同的一个明显的语言特点就是频繁使用介词和介词短语,其主要目的是为了行文的严谨和日后避免产生歧义,合同起草人便使用大量的介词或介词短语(介词+词)或(名词+介词短语)的语法结构来确保合同条款涉及和包括的范围更广。 例5 :Any controversy under this contract or arising betweenthe parties or out of or for breach of or in relation to this contractsha11 be determined by arbitration to be held in the City of NewYork pursuant to the arbitration law of the State of New York andunder the rules of the American Arbitration Association, the awardmade upon such arbitration sha11 be final and binding upon bothparties. 这是一条国际贸易中常见的仲裁条款。在句中any controversy之后连续使用了五个介词短语,这五个介词短语都是同时用来修饰和限定controversy的,它们分别是: 1) under this contract本合同下的 2) between the parties合同双方之间产生的3) out of (the contract)由本合同引起的4) for breach of (the contract)违反本合同的5) in relation to this contract与本合同有关的 从以上例子我们可以看出,合同句子要做到全面、严谨和准确就不可避免地要大量使用介词和介词短语加以修饰和限定。如果离开大量介词和介词短语,也就无法保证全面、严谨和准确无误。所以我们在翻译和理解商务合同时要特别注意介词的翻译和理解。 漫谈商务英语合同的翻译和理解 黄始谋 丽水职业技术学院 [摘 要] 本文利用大量的合同用词例子重点论述了三个方面:注意合同中的词语翻译和理解;慎重翻译和理解合同中的关键细目;要特别注意合同中的介词和介词短语的翻译和理解。这不仅对正确理解和翻译这些词语及其套语大有好处,而且也有利于正确理解与翻译商务英语合同条款。 [关键词] 介词 合同 翻译 参考文献: [1]江前良:涉外经济合同范本[M].北京.法律出版社.1996[2]李全申:谈谈商务合同的翻译[J].中国翻译.1998(2)[3]陈 欧:外贸英语的语义辩[J].中国科技翻译.2002(4)[4]John Potter.
