英文合同句型翻译技巧汇总

英文合同句型翻译技巧汇总

英文合同中使用的大量长句,主要分为三大类:简单长句、复合长句和并列长句。在翻译这些长句时,首先要正确理解各种相关成分的逻辑关系,然后再适当切分,理出句子的主干成分。最后再按汉语表达习惯,变动语序,重新组合。这样才能连贯、准确、清晰地予以表达。

☆简单长句及其翻译

在翻译英文商务合同中的简单长句时,首先要正确理解各种相关成分的逻辑关系;然后再适当切分,理出句子的主干成分,翻译时以句子的主干为主导;最后再按汉语表达习惯,变动语序,重新组合。这样才能连贯、准确、清晰地予以表达。下面举三个简单长句翻译的例子来说明:

1. The Buyers may,within 15 days after arrival of the goods at the destination,lodge a claim against the sellers for short-weight being supported by Inspection Certificate issued by a reputable public surveyor.

这是一个简单长句,其主干为The Buyers may…lodge a claim…。

修饰谓语动词的状语有三个,

a. 分别表示时间within 15 days after arrival of the goods at the destination

b. 方式being supported by Inspection Certificate issued by a reputable public surveyor和

c. 目的for short-weight

而且状语中还有状语,作定语的分词issued还有自己的状语by a reputable public surveyor。

众多状语,尽管在英语中的位置十分灵活,然而按照汉语的行文规范,方式状语一般应位于动词之前;而有些状语在译文中可以灵活处理,例如本句中的时间状语,可以提前至句首。因此,上句可译成:

货物抵达目的港15天内,买方可以凭有信誉的公共检验员出示的检验证明向卖方提出短重索赔。

2. Within 30 days after the signing and coming into effect of this contract,the Buyer shall proceed to pay the price for the goods to the Seller by opening an irrevocable L/C for the full amount of USD30,000 in favor of the Seller through a bank at export port.

此句的主干为…the Buyer shall proceed to pay the price…to the Seller,其中含有一个时间状语within 30 days after the signing and coming into effect of this contract。

从语用的角度来看,商务合同中许多时间状语表示的是某一缔约方必须在何时何地承担某一义务和享有某一种权利,即时效性。因此整个句子的重心不是句子的动词,而是发生动作的时间。

在译成中文时,为了突出行为的时效性,时间状语应尽量靠近表示义务责任的关键词“须”。此句中还含有一个较为复杂的方式状语by opening an irrevocable L/C…,其中含有三个介词短语作定语修饰an irrevocable L/C。按照汉语的行文规范,方式状语一般应位于动词之前。

此外,若动词同时带有时间状语和方式状语时,英文的通常顺序是方式在前,时间在后,而汉语却正好与之相反,为方式在后,时间在前。因此本句可译成:

买方须于本合同签字并生效后30天内通过出口地银行开立以卖方为收益人的不可撤销信用证支付全部货款计30 000美元。

3. The Equipment and Material shall be carefully and properly packed in the best and stable condition according to the figures and characteristics of the Equipment and Material so as to withstand

long-distance sea and inland transportation and numerous handlings.

此句的句子结构并不复杂但包含一个较为复杂的方式状语。从语用特征的角度来看,方式状语通常都是规定性的,其作用是规定合约方履行某项义务必须采取的方式或手段,在合同的语言环境下,即使有关缔约方履行了合同规定的义务,但若其履行义务的方式与合同规定的方式不符,乃构成违约。因此,方式状语的作用通常都是比较重要的。本句可译成:

设备和原料须根据其形状和特点以完善而牢固的方式精心妥当地包装,包装须适合于长途海、陆运输,能经受多次装卸。

☆英文合同中并列长句的翻译技巧

由于撰写合同时不能遗漏任何可能情况,所以英文商务合同中往往有大量并列成分。这些并列成分包括并列的词、短语以及从句。从语用角度看,并列的平行结构使合同的句式平衡,表意完整。在翻译由两个或两个以上的并列单句构成的复杂长句时可以采用分句译法。并列长句的分句之间的语义关系比较松散,因此翻译时可以断开,分解成单句独立存在。例如:

The Buyer shall have the right to claim against the Seller for compensation of losses within 60 days after arrival of the goods at the port of destination,should the quality of the goods be found not in conformity with the specifications stipulated in the Contract after

re-inspection by the China Commodity Inspection Bureau and the Buyer shall have the right to claim against the Sellers for compensation of

short-weight within 60 days after arrival of the goods at the port of destination,should the weight be found not in conformity with that stipulated in the Bill of Lading after re-inspection by the CCIB.

此句由两个结构相同的并列分句组成,均为主句在前,条件状语在后,在两个条件状语中均含有时间状语,此外,两个并列分句中也都含有时间状语,均为within 60 days after arrival of the goods at the port of destination,译成中文时,条件状语应分别置于主句之前,而所有的时间状语均放在各自修饰的动词的前面。同时,为了符合汉语句式较短的特点,可以将两个并列分句断开,分解成两个单句,即译成:

若货物经中国商品检验局复检后发现质量与本合同之规定不符,买方有权于货物抵达目的港后的60天内向卖方提出索赔。若经中国商品检验局复检发现货物质量与提单所示重量不符,买方有权于货物抵达目的港后的60天内向卖方提出短重索赔。

☆商务合同复合句的翻译方法

由于合同的严肃,严谨,严密性,导致复合句的应用较多,而结构复杂的复合句的翻译恰是保证整体翻译效果和准确性的关键。通常遇到此类句型,译员应在在分析句子结构、成分的基础上,采用顺序法、逆序法及分译法翻译进行翻译的策略。

英文合同句型翻译技巧汇总英文合同中使用的大量长句,主要分为三大类:简单长句、复合长句和并列长句。在翻译这些长句时,首先要正确理解各种相关成分的逻辑关系,然后再适当切分,理出句子的主干成分。最后再按汉语表达习惯,变动语序,重新组合。这样才能连贯、准确

一、要翻译好结构复杂的复合句,首先要了解商务英文合同的句式特点

作为法律文书,商务合同规定各方当事人的权利和义务,合同文字的表达必须完整、细致、严谨、明晰。而英语的复合句,可以包含多个从句。从句之间的关系可能包容、限定,也可能并列平行,因此,在合同中较多使用复合句能够将各方的权利和义务在有限的条款中完整明确地体现出来,确保合同句子结构的严谨性,以及文意的严密、细致。但是复合句中往往包含若干从句、修饰语等等,有时会显得臃肿、晦涩,无疑会增加理解英文合同的难度,与此同时也增加了合同翻译的难度。

二、要掌握商务英文合同复合句的翻译方法

商务合同中英文复合句的出现频率高,句子结构复杂,逻辑性强,无疑给译者增添了许多困难,但是,无论多长的句子,多么复杂的结构,它们都是由一些基本的成分组成的。只要弄清了合同原文的句法结构,找出整个句子的中心内容

及各层意思,然后分析各层意思之间的逻辑关系,再按汉语的特点和表达方式组织译文就可以保证合同翻译的准确性。

合同复合句的分析方法具体要遵循以下步骤:

首先,译者要找出全句的主语、谓语和宾语,即句子的主干结构

其次,要找出句子中所有的谓语结构、非谓语结构、介词短语和从句的引导词。

然后再分析从句和短句的功能,即:是否是主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句或状语从句等,以及词、短语和从句之间的关系。

最后,分析句子中是否有固定搭配,插入语等其他成分。下面举一个实例说明

例:If a Party breaches any of the representations or warranties given by it in Articles 18.1 or repeated in 18.2, then in addition to any other remedies available to the other party under this contract or under Applicable Laws, it shall indemnify and keep indemnified the other Party and the company against any losses, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities and claims that such Party or the Company may suffer as a result of such breach.

分析:

第一步,拆分句子:此长句可拆分为四个意义段,分别是

1) If a Party breaches …in Articles 18.1 or repeated in 18. 2

2) t hen in addition to …Applicable laws

3)it shall indemnify and …costs, expenses, liabilities and claims

4) that such Party or …as a result of such breach.

第二步,句子的结构分析:

1. 句的主干结构是主语(It)(情态动词动词原形)(shall indemnify and keep indemnified…against)宾语(the other Party and the Company)。

2. “if”引导的是条件从句,条件句的宾语部分跟随后置定语(given by it in Articles 18. 1 or repeated in 18. 2)。

3. “in addition to”引导的是增补成分,其核心词remedies也跟了后置定语(available to the other Party under this contract or under Applicable laws)。

4. 而“that”引导的则是后置定语修饰紧邻的五个名词。

5. 固定结构“indemnify sb. Against …”使某人不受……

根据以上分析,以及汉语的行文习惯(条件在前.结果在后,以及定语在所修饰的核心词之前),以上条款可翻译为:

如果一方违反任何其根据第18.1条或18.2条所做的陈述及担保或重述,则另一方除根据本合同或相关法律寻求任何可能的救济之外,违约方应当赔偿另一方或合营公司因此种违反而招致的任何损失、损害、费用、开支、责任或索赔。

商务英文合同的词汇特征及其翻译

【摘要】商务合同是商业法人之间为实现一定的经济目的、明确相互权利义务的一种文体。商务合同英语属半法律性语言,用词准确、正式、严谨,具有鲜明文体意义。本文基于典型实例分析,探讨了商务英文合同的词汇特征及翻译方法。 【关键词】商务英文合同词汇特征翻译 商务合同是商品经济的产物,它随着商品经济的产生而产生,也随着商品经济的发展而发展,是商品交换关系在法律上的体现,受到国家法律的承认和保护。在世界经济全球化和一体化的今天,国际商务活动日益频繁,贸易国法人之间为实现一定的经济利益而签订的明确规定了贸易双方的权利和义务,具有法律效力的文件——国际商务合同的重要性也越来越突出。商务合同英语既具有商务英语的特点,同时也具有法律英语的特点。本文拟从庄重正式、准确严谨和简洁明了三个角度阐述分析商务英文合同的词汇特征及其翻译方法。 一、庄重正式 Martin Joos按照语言使用的正式程度提出了英语的五种变体,即庄重文体(frozen style),正式文体(formal style),商议文体(consultative style),随便文体(casual style)和亲密文体(intimate style)。一般认为商务合同英语属庄重文体,即五种变体英语中正式程度最高的一种。商务英文合同的庄重正式的词汇特征体现在专业术语和外来词古体词的使用上。 1.商务专业术语 专业术语(technical term留学生论文网https://www.360docs.net/doc/bf3528648.html, s)具有鲜明的文体特色。其意义精确、单一、无歧义,且不带有个人感情色彩。为了准确描述商务活动中的各个交易环节以及与此相关的各类单据,商务合同英语文体中使用了大量表意清楚的商务专业术语。例如,policy(保险单),negotiable(可转让的),liability(责任、义务),right of recourse (追索权),factoring(保理)等。这些专业术语可避免冗长的解释,简化交易过程,提高工作效率。 2.法律专业术语 为了准确描述商务活动中交易双方各自的权利与义务,商务合同英语中也使用了较多的法律专业的术语。狭义的法律术语指仅出现在或大多数情况下出现在法律文件中的法律科学的特有术语,此意义上的法律术语在商务合同文体中的数量不多,如:imputed negligence (转嫁的过失责任)特指可向与行为人有利害关系的人或有合同关系的另一方追究责任的过失。商务合同中这类狭义的法律专业术语不以大众是否理解或接受为转移,它是商务合同语言准确表达的保障,是其独有的现象。而广义的法律术语则包括在法律文体中被赋予特定法律意义的常用词语,如action(诉讼),party(当事人),financial responsibility(经济责任,指违约责任,具体可指“赔偿损失”、“支付违约金”和“支付迟延支付金额的利息”)。这类词语把握不准确的话很容易导致翻译和理解当中的模糊性,因此要格外留意。如,“The contract is concluded in case of acceptance of the offer.”很容易译为“提议一旦接受,合同随即订立。”而实际上,“acceptance”与“offer”是合同法中两个重要的法律术语,其规范的译文分别为“承诺”、“要约”,前者是指受要约人对要约内容表同意,而后者则指一方希望与另一方订立合同。 3.外来词和古体词 商务合同英语中使用的商务类专业术语有不少源于拉丁语或法语,有些则是由其词根派生或合成,许多术语都有相同的前缀或后缀。它们的意义比较稳定,利于精确地表达概念,例如:ad valorem duty (拉丁语)从价(关)税,bona fide holder (拉丁语)汇票的善意持票人,pro rata tax rate比例税率(拉丁语,即proportional tax rate),insurance premium per capita (拉丁语)人均保险费,force majeure(法语)不可抗力,pro forma (拉丁语)估算表。

商务合同英文翻译注意事项(实例讲解)

商务合同英译的注意事项(实例版) 前言 英译商务合同貌似简单,实则不然。商务合同是一种特殊的应用文体,重在记实,用词行文的一大特点就是准确与严谨。 本文拟运用翻译教学中所积累的英译商务合同的实例,从三个方面论述如何从大处着眼、小处着手、力求准确严谨英译商务合同。 一、酌情使用公文语惯用副词 商务合同属于法律性公文,所以英译时,有些词语要用公文语词语、特别是酌情使用英语惯用的一套公文语副词,就会起到使译文结构严谨、逻辑严密、言简意赅的作用。但是从一些合同的英文译本中发现,这种公文语副同常被普通词语所代替,从而影响到译文的质量。 实际上,这种公文语惯用副同为数并不多,而已构词简单易记。常用的这类副词是由here、there、where等副词分别加上after、by、in、of、on、to、under、upon、with等副词,构成一体化形式的公文语副词。例如:从此以后、今后:hereafter;此后、以后:thereafter;在其上:thereonthereupon;在其下:thereunder;对于这个:hereto;对于那个:whereto;在上文:hereinabovehereinbefore;在下文:hereinafterhereinbelow;在上文中、在上一部分中:thereinbefore;在下文中、在下一部分中:thereinafter.现用两个实例,说明在英译合同中如何酌情使用上述副词。 例1:本合同自买方和建造方签署之日生效。 This Contract shall come into force from the date of execution hereof by the Buyer and the Builder. 例2:下述签署人同意在中国制造新产品,其品牌以此为合适。 The undersigned hereby agrees that the new products whereto this trade name is more appropriate are made in China. 二、谨慎选用极易混淆的词语 英译商务合同时,常常由于选同不当而寻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,现把常用且易混淆的七对词语,用典型实例论述如下。 2.1 shipping advice与shipping instruction sshipping advice是“装运通知”,是由出口商(卖主)发给进口商(买主)的。然而shipping instructions则是“装运须知”,是进口商(买主)发给出口商(卖主)的。另外要注意区分 vendor(卖主)与vendee(买主),consignor(发货人)与consignee(收货人)。上述这三对词语在英译时、极易发生笔误。 2.2abide by与comply with
