外贸函电涉及外贸活动的各个环节，贯穿外贸活动的始终。
在国际贸易中的地位变得愈加重要。
正确的读懂外贸函电活翻译函电对于公司树立良好的形象极为重要，甚至决定着贸易的成败。
外贸函电是具有法律效力的文件，在贸易信息交流中扮演着不可忽视的角色，外贸函电翻译水平的提高是成功沟通的第一步。
在现代国际贸易过程中，对外贸易的各个环节大多通过函电进行，都离不开外贸函电的书写。
由于外贸函电是商家为了达到成功交易目标而采用的一种信息交流方式，因此，在外贸函电翻译过程中，如何把握好语气，让对方感觉到具有说服力又不失诚恳，要立场坚定而又不失亲切是每个外贸人员需要注意的问题。
著名作家老舍说过：“翻译工作不是结结巴巴的学舌，而是漂漂亮亮的再创造。
”在国际贸易中，买卖双方通过洽商，就各项交易条件取得一致协议后，交易即告达成，买卖双方当事人即存在合同关系。
国际买卖双方合同的商订是整个交易过程中最重要的一个环节，虽然可以通过口头的方式进行，但实践中，主要是通过函电的方式进行。
“函”是“封套”的意思，即是指信件，而“电”即是包括电报、传真、电子数据交换和电子邮件等在内的数据电文的统称。
所以说，函电不仅是洽商国际买卖合同的手段，而且是签订国际买卖合同的最主要的形式之一，所以说，对于建立外贸函电关系的双方来说，很大程度上取决于我们对外贸函电的再创造是否足够漂亮。
1.2 外贸函电的含义外贸函电，翻译成英文为foreign correspondence ，是指在日常的外贸交易中用以传递信息、处理商务事宜以及联络和沟通关系的信函、电讯文书。
常用的商务信函主要有商洽函、询问函、答复函、请求函、告知函和联系函等，是我们建立对外贸易关系和外贸往来的一种非常重要的沟通手段。
1.3 外贸函电的构成① letterhead（信头）信头是指信纸上印刷或打印的七爷名称、厂称、地址、电话号码等。
信头应当包含写信人的基本情况，一般置于信纸的最上方。
② date （日期）日期通常位于信头的右下方位置，或在寄信人姓名和地址的下方位置。
月份不使用缩写，也不要数字代替，一般用英文表示，第一个（收信人的名称及地址）阁下”、“先生”等类似礼貌表示知道对方姓名；如使用字母是大写，也有时缩写。
英式顺序是日、月、年；美式顺序是月、日、年。
③（收信人的名称及地址）阁下”、“先生”等类似礼貌表示知道对方姓名；如使用④ salutation （称谓）收信人姓名之前常用称呼敬语，相同于性称谓，如使用dear m./mrs./miss/ms.dear sir ，dear madam, 则表示不知道对方姓名，如见到dear prof.smith 等，则表示对方职务较高，所以在称呼敬语和姓名中间使用了职务名称。
⑤body （正文）正文是信函的实质性内容，要求语法正确、切中要害，结构上表现出段落划分明确，每段集中于一个话题的特点。
布局具有艺术性，整齐美观。
⑥ complimentary close（结尾）英语函电的结尾是写信人的谦称，相当于“敬上”的意思。
若收信人为公司，谦称则常用：yours truly,yours faithfully 等；若收信人为个人，则常用yours sincerely 等。
⑦sig nature and de-sig nature （写信人签名或署名）签署由两部分构成，一是写信人的签名，二是打印出的写信人的姓名。
很多外贸函电除上述内容外，还经常包括以下部分：注意事项（attention line ）；事由、标题（subject line ）；经办人代号（the reference notation ）；附件（the enclosure ）；抄送（the carbon copy notation ）；附言（the postscript ）等。
【篇二：外贸信函翻译】dear ms. obermann,although thousands of orders come in at this time of the year, the ones that get the warmest greetings are those from loyal customers, like you. you 've given us your christmas order for many years. every transaction we 've had with you has been exceptionally pleasant.undoubtedly, at this time of the year you are snowed under with catalogs （目录）from many mail order houses （邮购公司）. it would be nice to think that our catalog was the only one that claimed your attention, but of course that isn 't so, nor would it be good business on your part. evidently, you read at least one other catalog this year. the desk clocks you specifiedare not carried by us. …after you 've read this letter, please phone me collect to tell me whether you want the folks on your christmas list to have model 41. your clocks are sittin g on the shipping room “hold ”counter, all prettied up in their sparkling christmas wrappings.they 're ready to go to you the moment you say “okay”. i 'll begrateful if you 'll give me your decision by friday of this week.sincerely,奥伯曼女士：您好！每年此时，尽管成千上万的订单蜂拥而至，但像您这样忠实的客户的订单式最受欢迎的。

然而那当然不可能。
如果真如此，从您的角度来说，缺乏比较，也未必是件好事。
显然，您今年至少翻阅了一份其他公司的商品目录，因为您所订的座钟并不在我们的目录之列。
阅信后请打受话方付款电话，告知您是否选定41 型座钟作为馈赠亲友的圣诞礼品。
给您的这批座钟都饰以闪亮的圣诞包装，正存列在发货仓的“特留”专柜，只要您说声“行”，我们立刻就给您发货。
