******************************************(此文档仅供大家学习探讨)我们常见的书面文本有四种：Contract(合同),Confirmation(确议书),Agreement(协议)和Memorandum(备忘录)。

前两者多用与商业中，其条款要详细且正规。

而备忘录多用与团体和政府部门。

contract定义为：A contact in this Law refers to an agreement establishing, modifying and terminating the civil rights and obligations between subjects of equal footing, that is, between natural persons, legal persons or other organizations”。

根据这一定义，合同平等主体之间设立的确定民事权利和义务的协议。

Agreement: “A consensus of mind, or evidence of such consensus, in spoke or written form, relating to anything done or to be done.”根据这一定义，协议是对已经做或准备做的相关事宜，经过谈判、协商后取得一致意见，以口头或书面形式做出的约定。

，合同要有正本(Original)和副本(Copy)。

通常采用的格式是三部分：首部(Head)，主体(Body)和尾部(End)。

商务中文的合同开头一般先罗列当事人的名称、姓名、住所或营业场所，然后是合同正文，结尾是当事人印章、授权代表签字、职务及签字日期。

而英语合同一般以下面这类句式为开头：This agreement/contract is made and entered in to this ____ day of _____(month), _______ (year) by and between Party A (hereinafter called " Party A ")and Party B(hereinafter called " Party B ")然后是开始陈述：WHEREAS…THEREFORE… It is hereby agreed as follows:或以：WITNESSETH, WHEREAS…NOW THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereby covenant and agree as follows:最后是证明部分：IN WITNESS WHEREOF，the parties hereto have hereunto set their hands the day and years first above written.随后还包括当事人和见证人的签字。

签字日期一般在英文合同最必备的。

合同英语的用词极其考究，具有特定性。

要求选词专业化（professional）、正式（formal）、准确（accurate）。

具体体现在下列方面：1、May，shall，must ，may not （或shall not）的使用May，shall ，must ，may not （或shall not）对学过英语的人再熟悉不过，但在合同中用这些词时要极其谨慎。

权利义务的约定部分构成了合同的主体。

这几个词如选用不当，可能会引起纠纷。

May 旨在约定当事人的权利（可以做什么），shall约定当事人的义务（应当做什么），must 用于强制性义务（必须做什么），may not （或shall not）用于禁止性义务（不得做什么）。

May do 不能说成can do / shall do，不能说成should do 或ought to do，may not do 在美国一些法律文件可以用shall not，但绝不能用can not do或must not。

例如，在约定解决争议的途径时的，可以说：The parties hereto shall, first of all, settle any dispute arising from or in connection with the contract by friendly negotiations. Should such negotiations fail, such dispute may be referred to the People's Court having jurisdiction on such dispute for settlement in the absence of any arbitration clause in the disputed contract or in default of agreement reached after such dispute occurs.本句中的shall 和may表达准确。

出现争议后应当先行协商，所以采用了义务性“约定”，如果协商解决不了，作为当事人的权利，用选择性约定may也很妥当。

如果may和shall 调换位置会怎么样？前半句的shall换用may 后，意思变成了当事人可以通过协商解决，意思上说得过去，但后半句的may换用shall 后，变成了应当诉讼解决，好像一出事就要先见官，这就有些不友好了。

2、正式用语（Formal Terms）合同英语有着严肃的风格，与其它英语作品有很大不同。

例如：“因为”的短语多用“by virtue of”，远远多于“due to”一般不用“because of”；“财务年度末”一般用“at the close of the fiscal year”，而不用“in the end of the fiscal year”；“在……之前”一般用“prior to”，而不用“before”；“关于”常用“as regards”，“concerning”或“relating to”，而不会用“about”；“事实上”用“in effect”，而不用“in fact”；“开始”用“commencement”，而不用“start”或“begin”；“停止做”用“cease to do”，而不用“stop to do”；“何时开会并由某某主持”的表述为：The meeting shall be convened and presided by somebody。

其中“召开”不用hold 或call，而用convene；“主持”不用chair或be in charge of，而用preside；“其他事项”用miscellaneous，而不用othermatters/events；“理解合同”用construe a contract 或comprehend a contract，而不用understand a contract；“认为”用deem，用consider少，不用think或believe；“愿意做”用intend to do或desire to do，而不用want to do，wish to do。

3、用词专业（Technical Terms）合同用词不以大众是否理解和接受为转移，它是合同语言准确表达的保障。

如合同出现的“瑕疵”、“救济”、“不可抗力”、“管辖”、“损毁”、“灭失”等就可能让非行业人士费解，在英语以上表达分别为defect、remedy、Act of God、jurisdiction、damage and/or loss。

另外几乎每个合同都少不了hereinafter referred to as，whereas，in witness whereof，for and on behalf of，hereby，thereof等虚词。

这也是合同英语的一大特色。

其它例子还有：“赔偿”用indemnities，而不用compensation；“不动产转让”用conveyance，而不用transfer of real estate；“房屋出租”用tenancy，而“财产出租”用lease of property；“停业”用wind up a business 或cease（名词是cessation）a business，而不用end/stop a business ；专利许可中的“特许权使用费”只用royalties；“以实物出资”为investment in kind；“依照合同相关规定”一般说pursuant to provisions contained herein或as provided herein等，不说according to relevant terms and conditions in the contract；“合同任何一方当事人不得转让本合同”英文表述为Neither party hereto may assign this contract，其中hereto表示to the contract，选用Neither party to the contract 的时候较少。

4、同义词、近义词、相关词的序列for value received，the undersigned does hereby sell, transfer, assign and set over to______ all his right, tile and interest in and to a certain contract dated ______, 19____ by and between the undersigned and ______，a copy of which is annexed hereto.在这里的同义词和近义词并列（如sell, transfer, assign and set over，right和tile and interest），在英文合同里十分普遍。

这是出于严谨和杜绝漏洞的考虑，有的也属于合同用语的固定模式。

如：this agreement is made and entered into by and between party a and party b.句中“made and entered into”和“by and between”两组分别属于同义词和相关词并列。
