英语翻译合同英语看了之后明白了很多英文〝之乎者也〞所对应的现代文，对合同英语的结构和特征也有了大约的了解。
值得一看。
Contract 与Agreement的有无区别在英语中，合同普通称为Contract，协议普通称为Agreement。
何谓〝contract〞?1999年中国«合同法»第二条对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〞。
依据这一定义，合同对等主体之间设立确实定民事权益和义务的协议。
，Steven H. Gifts编著的〝Law Dictionary〞中将contract 定义为〝contract is a promise, or a set of promises, for breach of which the law gives remedy, or the performance of the which the law in some way recognize as a duty.〞依据这一定义，合同是一种承诺，违犯承诺可以失掉法律救助，某种意义上法律将实行该承诺看做是一种补偿。
L.B Curzon 在其编撰的字典〝A Dictionary of Law〞给contract的定义：〝Contract is a legally binding agreement〞依据这一定义，合同就是有法律约束力的协议。
综合起来，有一个相反点，就是〝Contract is an agreement〞，即可将合同说成是〝An agreement which binds the parties concerned〞或许说合同说成是〝An agreement which is enforceable by law〞，也可以说：Contracts are promises that the law will enforce。
