ConclusionWorks CitedAcknowledgementsI. IntroductionWith the development of economy and trading integration, business English as the basic communicative tool has been used widely in every trading cooperation. Contracts as the tool for different countries trading with others, has been brought into people’s discussion for a long time.Due to the oppositely conservative economic style and rare communication with other countries, the related study on business English Contracts was very rare before 21st in China. While the situation changed a lot from the beginning of the new era of 21st century with the booming development of related works.Business English contracts is a kind of text form with strong professionalism and responsibility. [1] To acquire business English contracts’words’characters and translation skills will be good for assisting related trading activities’communication and cooperation effectively and authoritatively. This paper aims at analyzing the character of words in business English contracts and the translation skills worthy of studying in order to help all of the students, professionals and related researchers of this field obtain a good knowledge of business English contracts, and also provide them with advantageous reference and assistance in their future’s study. What’s more, all of the related works’booming development will surely advance China’s marketing economic development and progress, prompt the blend of economy of China and other countries, which certainly will have extremely positive affection in world economic integrity.II. Words’ Features of Business English ContractsBusiness contract is the main guarantee of bilateral profits, its wordsshould be formal, serious, detailed, accurate, complex, profound and distinguished. [2] Thus in the process of signing a contract, related people have to adopt regularized terms and expressing ways to make sure the contract are coherent, its content is true and is with legal effect. In view of the above mentioned requirements, the words of business English contracts should have many characters, like the mass usages of technical terms, written words, archaisms, loanwords, modal verbs and abbreviations.2.1 Usage of technical termsTechnical terms in contract defines the words with specific meaning and character and being used not as common and ordinary meaning. On account of the legal effect, it always need many professional words, law terms to protocol an agreement in order to make the words’ meaning sole and specific without any emotional color and different meaning. There are many commonly used terms listed, like “for your reference”, “for one’s file”, “in your favor”, “by separate post”and “advance payment”and so on. [3]2.2 Usage of archaismThe massive use of archaisms is an obvious character of business English contract. For the language of business English is very formal with many written words, there are many words being used in documents and contracts rarely used in other fields. Archaisms are the words with formallanguage style, most of them are the adverbial compound words combined by propositions like there and here, where and by, after, in, at and so on. Just like the words “hereby”, “hereafter” and “whereby” and so on. [4]2.3 Usage of written wordsAs business English contracts should rule the two parties’rights, obligations, duties and action norms directly who signed the contract, therefore the written words are usually used to stand out the contract’s seriousness and professional textual characters. For example, “in effect”is always used to take the place of “in fact”; “desire to do” is always used to take the place of “wish to do”; “deem” is always used to take the place of “think” and “believe” and so on. [5]2.4 Usage of loanwordsSome business technical terms used in business contract originates from Latin or French, some are derived words or compound words by the root of them. Most of the terms have the same prefix or suffix and have the stable meanings being advantageous for expressing exactly. For example, “as per”comes from Greek; “inter alia”, “ad valorem duty”, “stare decisis”all originate from Lation, which will be written as italic type in business contract. [6]2.5 Usage of modal verbsThe purpose of signing a business contract lies in define twoparities’ rights and obligations in case of any legal dispute. Consequently, there existing lots of similar depictions in the items of a contract, like “something must be done”, “something may be done”and “something shall not be done”and so on. Under such circumstances, many modal verbs will be used in business contract. Apart from being used to express the future tense, some modal verbs have many other particular meanings in law, which could be paid more attention in translation process. To set some examples, “shall”commonly mean the obligation in business contract namely what should be done. And if it hasn’t been performed, such action will be seen as default. Thus “shall” means “should” or “have to”in the translation text; “May”commonly mean the right, power or privilege in business contract namely what can be done. And if expressing some right is mandatory, “be entitled” should be used usually; “Must” is generally used to express the compulsory situation by law namely what should be done, and the tone is stronger that “shall”; “Will” is generally used to express the compulsory situation without regulations in law, and the tone of it is weaker that “shall”. [7]2.6 Usage of abbreviationsAs kind of professional legal document, business English contract is tedious and complicated. And in order to make the contract convenient to be communicated, remembered and recorded, numerous abbreviations will be used in business English contract. The several simple liters usedin business contract can convey complex meanings, whose interpretations have become a convention internationally. In general, the payment way, delivery way, insurance way, price items, currency, measurement and other organizations, companies and countries always arise as abbreviations. For “LC”= letter of credit; L&D=loans and damage; L&D.=loans and discounts; FOB=Free on Board; A/R=all risks; SHINC=Sunday and Holiday Included etc,. [8]。

商务英语合同翻译论文AbstractAs globalization becomes increasingly prevalent, the importance of business contracts and legal documents translated from one language to another has become more important than ever. This research paper discusses the translation of a business contract from Chinese to English, focusing on key elements including the identification of the parties involved, the rights and obligations of each party, the applicable laws and regulations in China, the clarity of the terms and conditions of the contract, and the enforceability of the contract. The goal of this research paper is to provide a comprehensive guide for legal professionals in translating business contracts and legal documents from Chinese to English.Keywords: translation, business contract, Chinese, English, legal documents1. IntroductionBusiness contracts are key documents in the world of commerce and trade, as they provide the legal framework for all transactions between businesses. With the increasing globalization of business, the need for accurate translations of these contracts has become more important than ever. Businesscontracts are legal documents that establish and outline the terms and conditions of a business agreement between two or more parties. In order for these contracts to be legally binding and enforceable, the terms and conditions must be clearly stated, and the language used must be easily understood by all parties involved.In China, business contracts are written in Chinese. However, as many businesses in China have international partners and clients, it is common for these contracts to be translated into English. Professional translation is essential, as mistakes or misunderstandings in the translation can lead to costly legal disputes. This research paper aims to provide legal professionals with a comprehensive guide for translating business contracts from Chinese to English.2. Identification of the Parties InvolvedThe first step in translating a business contract is to identify the parties involved. In the Chinese language, personal names usually come before surnames, whereas in English, surnames come first. Therefore, when translating a Chinese name into English, the surname should be written first, followed by the given name. A common practice is to include the Chinese name in parentheses after the English name.For example, the Chinese name “张三” should be translated as “ZHANG San (张三)” in an English business contract.In addition to the names of the parties involved, the contract should also include their legal names, addresses, and other identifying information.3. Rights and Obligations of Each PartyThe rights and obligations of each party should be clearly stated in the business contract. This includes the specific responsibilities and duties of each party, as well as any limitations or restrictions.For example, if one party is responsible for delivering goods to the other party, the contract should specify the types of goods to be delivered, the delivery schedule, and any penalties or consequences for late or non-delivery.4. Applicable Laws and Regulations in ChinaIt is important to include a provision in the contract that specifies the applicable laws and regulations in China. This is particularly important in China, where the legal system is complex and constantly changing.In addition, it is important to clarify which version of the Chinese law and regulations will be used in the contract. In China, there are different versions of legal documents at different levels of government, and these may differ in some aspects.5. Clarity of Terms and ConditionsThe terms and conditions of the contract must be clear and easy to understand. This includes the use of correct grammar and punctuation, as well as the avoidance of technical jargon and ambiguous language.Using plain language is particularly important when dealing with a non-native speaker of English, as they may not be familiar with legal terminology and complex sentence structures.6. Enforceability of the ContractThe final step in translating a business contract is to ensure that it is legally enforceable. This means that the contract must meet all the legal requirements of the jurisdiction in which it will be executed.For example, in China, a business contract must be in writing, signed by both parties, and include all relevant terms and conditions. It must also comply with the applicable laws and regulations of China.ConclusionTranslating a business contract from Chinese to English requires careful attention to detail and legal expertise. The contract must be accurately translated, have clear and unambiguous terms, and be legally enforceable. By following the guidelines outlined in this research paper, legal professionals can ensure that their translated business contracts are accurate andlegally binding, and that they meet the requirements of all parties involved.。

基于模因论的中文商务合同词汇英译研究一、引言随着我国政治、经济实力的增强，我国与西方国家的商务往来日益频繁。

商务合同是有关各方在进行询盘、发盘、还盘和接受等商务活动后，为了确定各自的权利和义务而正式依法订立，必须共同遵守的协议条文，对签订双方具有法律约束力，在我国的对外贸易中起着十分重要的作用。

由于缺乏专业译员，商务文书的翻译往往差强人意，因中文商务合同误译导致签约双方产生矛盾争端的案例比比皆是。

本文将在模因论指导下为译员提供中文商务合同词汇英译模型，旨在提高英译合同的准确性和规范性。

二、模因论与翻译模因模因论（Memetics）是在达尔文的生物进化论基础上发展起来的解释文化进化规律的新理论，研究对象是模因（Meme），以区别于基因。

如果说基因是人类遗传特征的载体，人类的生物特征通过基因代代相传，那么模因就是文化基因，通过模仿而传播。

根据达尔文的定义，模因是文化传递单位或文化复制因子，任何经过模仿而得到传播的事物都是模因。

由于模因概念具有包容性，模因论被广泛应用于语言学、翻译学和传播学等领域。

20世纪90年代中期，切斯特曼和弗米尔的研究第一次把翻译和模因联系在一起。

切斯特曼认为，模因隐喻（Meme-Metaphor）有助于重新审视翻译，译者的任务不是原封不动地传递原文的信息，而是传播和发展原文的思想；译者是促使思想发生变化的媒介。

他还借助模因论整合了自己的翻译概念、理论翻译规范、策略和翻译价值观，形成了翻译模因论（Memes of Translation）。

切斯特曼将翻译模因库中的模因划分为 5 种超级模因——源语—目标语模因、对等模因、不可译模因、意译—直译模因和写作即翻译模因[1]。

何自然认为翻译模因库里有各种各样的模因基因型和模因表现型，前者意味着源语与目标语的转化是一种原信息的等值或等效的纵向传播，包括语义等值/等效模因和语用等值/等效模因，而后者则表现为信息从源语到目标语的转化过程是一种非对等的横向复制和扩散[2]。

商务英语合同翻译策略研究论文AbstractThe objective of this research paper is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the strategy for translating business English contracts for lawyers. The paper will outline the fundamental information of the contract, such as the identities of the parties, their rights and obligations, how they will fulfill their obligations, the duration of the contract, and the consequences for breach of the agreement. In addition, it will consider how to comply with Chinese laws and regulations, ensure the transparency of the terms of the agreement, clarify the legal force and enforceability of the contract, and other critical factors that should be considered before drafting a business contract.IntroductionAs the world becomes more connected, international business transactions are increasing rapidly, and it is essential to have a clear understanding of the terms of the contract. Business contracts are legal documents used to formalize agreements between two or more parties. These contracts define each party's duties and obligations and the responsibilities and liabilities to be shared by each party. Business contracts' legal language can be complex and challenging to comprehend, particularly for those who are not fluent in the English language.Therefore, it is critical for lawyers who are involved in international business transactions to be skilled in the art of translating business English contracts. This research paper will outline the essential factors that should be considered when translating business English contracts.Parties' basic informationBefore starting to draft a business contract, the essential information about the parties must be gathered. This information should include the parties' legal names and addresses, the nature of their business, and their capacity to enter into a contract, such as whether they have the power of representation or whether they are authorized to enter into an agreement. This information is essential to ensure that the parties are indeed the legal entities that they claim to be.Parties' identity, rights, and obligationsThe next step is to identify the parties, their respective rights and obligations, and the consequences of breaching these obligations. This section of the contract should be as explicit and precise as possible and should be drafted in plain English, without technical jargon or legalistic terms that are not easily understood by non-lawyers.The contract should clearly define the rights and obligations of each party, including the payment terms, the specific deliverables, the deadline for fulfilling these deliverables, andconfidentiality obligations. It should also specify any warranties and guarantees provided by the parties, the method of delivery of goods or services, and how the parties will communicate with one another.Moreover, the consequences for breach of the agreement should also be clearly outlined. This includes the appropriate remedies, such as monetary compensation, termination of the agreement, or other available legal recourse.Compliance with Chinese laws and regulationsIt is crucial to ensure that the terms of the contract are compliant with Chinese laws and regulations. This section of the contract should identify the relevant laws and regulations that apply to the agreement and ensure that they are binding on each party.In China, contracts that violate Chinese laws and regulations are void and cannot be enforced. Therefore, it is essential to review the contract with a legal expert to ensure compliance with Chinese laws and regulations.Transparency of terms of agreementTransparency of the terms of the contract is essential. Both parties must understand the terms they are agreeing to before entering into the agreement. The language of the contract should be clear, precise, and easily understood - particularly when considering cultural differences and language barriers.Moreover, transparency can be achieved by ensuring that both parties are aware of the consequences of non-compliance, the procedures for resolving disputes, and the availability of legal remedies.ConclusionTo translate a business English contract is a challenging task, requiring a specialist in international contracts. This research paper identified the essential elements that need to be included when drafting business contracts, i.e., the basic information of the parties, the identities, rights, and obligations of each party, compliance with Chinese laws and regulations, and transparency in agreements.Business English contracts must be drafted with clarity and precision to ensure that the parties understand their responsibilities and liabilities. Ultimately, it is the responsibility of the legal expert to ensure that the translated contract is legally enforceable and complies with any relevant legislation and regulations.。

下文是商务英语翻译方面论文，欢迎大家阅读参考!商务英语翻译方面论文【1】浅谈商务英语信函翻译的信达雅摘要：商务英语信函作为沟通的桥梁，在对外贸易中起着不容忽视的作用。

因此，在翻译商务英语信函的过程中，译者必须准确、通顺、得体地再现原文的信息，以促进贸易活动的顺利进行。

本文主要从“信”、“达”、“雅”三个方面来浅析商务英语信函的翻译。

关键词：商务英语信函信达雅我国近代伟大的启蒙思想家、翻译家严复1898年在《天演论·译例言》中提出的“信、达、雅”是影响最为深刻的翻译原则和标准。

现在普遍认为，“信”指忠实于原文，“达”指用通顺易懂的译入语表达原文的全部信息，“雅”则指译得有文采。

“雅”，是继“信”、“达”之后的对好的翻译的更高要求，也是译出好的译文的必要条件。

因此，翻译应在保证“信”与“达”的基础上力求做到“雅”。

“信达雅”作为翻译标准，其高度的理论概括性赋予其广泛的实践意义，因此适用于任何翻译，商务英语信函的翻译亦包括在内。

虽然商务英语信函的翻译和一般的翻译一样需要依据“信、达、雅”这个翻译标准，但是商务英语信函有着其自身的特点，因此其翻译又不同于一般的翻译。

本文将从“信”、“达”、“雅”三个方面来浅析商务英语信函的翻译。

一.商务英语信函翻译中的“信”翻译应当忠实于原文，这是翻译最基本的要求。

因为若译得不准确，轻则就会招来内行人笑话，或产生误解，引起对方不快，重则就会误事，给工作带来损失，甚至会产生严重后果。

商务英语信函作为涉外商务活动中传递信息和洽谈业务的主要手段，其翻译更应遵循“信”这一标准。

1.内容准确完整在翻译商务英语信函时，译者应当准确、忠实地再现原文信函的内容，翻译时不要漏译，要完整地把信息表达出来，使读者能够明白信函的真正意图。
