2.商务信函范文英语 篇二

其次内容清晰, 文字简洁也是商务信函的一大特点。“时间就是金钱”, 我想这句话应该也是很多商业人士的深深感悟。大多数商务人士每天有很多的商务信函要阅读处理, 有很多事情需要解决。简单明了的信函对于他们繁忙的头脑犹如一阵清风吹过, 而啰唆繁琐的信件必定让读者费劲头脑, 并有可能丧失阅读的兴趣, 而延误时间。因此英语商务信函务必追求内容清晰明了, 切中要点, 最好只有简单的寒暄然后直入主题, 让客户在最短时间就可以明白你所要阐述的意思并快速做出反应。如果信函开头过多寒暄, 会让对方失去阅读的兴趣。内容清晰应该包含两个方面, 第一在拟文前知道自己要写什么, 第二在读者看到之后知道你写了什么。如果一封信件中想要表达多个内容, 最好每一个单独的意思用单独的段落来表达, 这样更便于读者快速了解信件内容。文字的表达中还要注意不同文化的差异, 以免发生误解。尽量表达准确, 避免使用一些含混不清、模棱两可的词汇。英语作为一百多个非英语国家的商务人员在商务书信中使用, 而这些商务人员也不是每个人都精通英语, 因此在选词上应该尽量选择常规的表达方式和简单易懂的词汇, 避免使用复杂句式和晦涩难懂的词语。最好可以用最少的语言表达最为完整的意思。但不可一味追求简洁, 书信内容也要具体详实, 完整。

如果本可以用60个字便可以讲清一件事情, 却用了上百个字来反复说明, 读者定会厌烦, 商务信函应避免使用陈旧的客套和没有多余的词语, 不要反复强调一件事情, 避免啰唆。减少没有实际意义词语的使用, 不仅可以提高文章的清晰度, 反而还可以突出重点, 从另一个方面起到强调所要传递信息的作用。并且在对方看到简洁的段落时也更容易阅读, 从而提高了效率。在最近几年里, 商务信函的格式也发生一些变化, 不必过于正式, 但务须简洁, 也可以使用一些约定俗成的英文缩写。缩略语的使用也可使文章看上去更加简洁, 但对于商务英语缩写的掌握一定要准确, 以免引起麻烦。一些涉及时间和数字的表达不妨直接用阿拉伯数字表达, 这样不仅一目了然, 并且可以引起重视。要注意在英语句子以数字开头的, 应使用单词而不是数字。涉及金额的表述一定要明确易懂, 没有歧义。并注意在表述金额时加上金额的单位如RMB USD等。

再次完成一封成功的商业书信, 不仅要求写信人精通英语, 和外贸知识, 还应该通晓人的心理。贸易往来中, 追求利益是无可厚非的, 在进行商务信函磋商过程中遵循互利互惠的原则的同事应多从客户的角度行文, 突出积极的因素。在句式的使用上多加揣摩, 可以将对方所得利益放在句首, 这样读者对自己所得利益一目了然并且印象深刻。把积极因素放在句首更能激发对方的兴趣并得到认同, 当然对于其他事实情况不可避而不谈, 但可以弱化一些。商务信函是否能起到信息沟通的有效性很重要, 在发信后得到应有的反应信函才能体现其价值。在起草商务信函时只有站在对方的立场上思考和处理问题, 才能达到更有效的沟通。少使用否定的句子而多从正面强调积极的因素, 弱化消极的信息, 有利于更好的信息传达。

商务信函的信息要具体详实, 有头有尾, 讲清每件事情的起因结果。在表达一些时间, 数量时尽量使用具体数字, 避免使用含混不清、笼统的词汇。例如:“I will sent you the B/L soon.”不如改为:“I will sent you the B/L in one week.”Or“I will sent you the B/L before Sunday.”在后两种表达中时间变的明确, 信息就更有效。当然一定要在确保时间之后才可以这样说。在使用代词的时候, 更要指代明确, 以免产生麻烦。

最后在信函发给客户之前一定要反复检查是否有错, 因为商务信函往往涉及贸易双方的义务责任, 以及企业和个人的利益。一些不准确和错误的信息可能带来无法预料的麻烦和损失, 如果在写信函时遇到不确定的信息一定要积极核实。商务信函的质量好坏会直接影响到企业的形象, 信函写得好可能赢得新的业务, 有助于促进和发展与外贸伙伴的友好关系, 也可以及时消除误会解决问题。反之, 可能引发矛盾, 引起经济纠纷, 失去客户。

3.英语商务信函应遵循的写作原则 篇三

[关键词] 商务信函；写作；原则

【中图分类号】 H05 【文献标识码】 A 【文章编号】 1007-4244（2013）12-303-1

21世纪是经济日益全球化的世纪，中国与世界各国的交往日益频繁，国际贸易事业发展迅猛。但随着科学技术的发展，国际间的贸易往来更多地使用传真与电子邮件来传递商务信函。因而，英语商务信函成为一种便宜而有效的沟通媒介。英语商务信函是一种最常见的商业联系媒介，它是一种通过电脑或者打字机“书信”来完成的人际间交往。实际上商务信函是一种“推销”函，写信人总是在推销着什么，可能是一种产品、一项服务、一项专利、一个观念，甚至是推销自己或树立自己所在公司的形象等。

一、礼貌原则（courteousness）

在商务信函写作中乃至所有商务活动中，礼貌都发挥着重大的调节作用。它是有效的自我推荐名片，有助于老关系的加强和新关系的建立。礼貌意味着在信函中非常巧妙的表示出诚挚的友情，诚挚的感谢，真诚的礼貌，体贴的理解和由衷的尊重。

商业信件要简洁明了，既要注意信件的措词得体，又要符合商业信件礼貌周到的原则。写信时要注意礼节，不要盛气凌人，避免出现命令或粗鲁等不恰当的口吻。写信过程中除了多使用诸如please；your kind inquiry；I would appreciate it if you would等短语外，还需做到以下几点：语气要真诚、善解人意以及考虑周全；避免使用伤害、贬低的短语，如：your neglectful attitude；impatience；we deny your claim 等；避免使用含有性别歧视的词语，如 businessman；chairman 等。

二、准确原则（correctness）

准确表达不仅仅指英语语法、标点符号和拼写层面，更重要的是书信的内容要叙述正确，买卖双方的权利、义务、违约条款、付款方式、重要数字等信息都属于准确表达的范围。一封表达准确的商务信函，不仅能够促使商务活动的有效进行，还能够避免不必要的纠纷。

三、完整原则（completeness）

商务信函的内容力求完整，需回答来信所提出的所有问题和要求，或是包括写信人希望收信人做出积极反映的一切问题及情况（when、where、who、what、how ）。在书写商务信函时，应该对信函的内容做到心中有数，避免一件事分多次书信传递给对方。一封商务信函只有包含了所有必要信息才能达到它的理想效果，不完整的信函不仅有失礼貌而且会令收信人对你公司产生不好的印象。

四、清楚原则（clarity）

清楚是商务英语信函写作最重要的原则。一封含糊不清、辞不达意的书信会引起误会与歧义，造成贸易损失，甚至会引发诉讼纠纷。清楚表达应注意选择正确、简练的词，避免使用一些含糊不清、模棱两可的词，条理清晰，表达准确。一般地，商务信函的撰写者必须将自己的意思清晰地表达出来，以便对方准确理解。

五、简洁原则（conciseness）

简洁指的是信函内容完整，语言简单而不失清楚，用最少的语言表达最为丰富的内容。简洁被视为商务信函写信的第一要义。故撰写商业信件时要摒弃传统信函中的陈词滥调和套话，采用简洁、直接的句式进行写作，简明扼要，精炼丰富，长话短说，避免罗嗦，用尽可能少的简单的文字，完整清楚地表达需要表达的意思。

六、具体原则（concreteness）

信函应该写得具体，明确，而不能含糊，抽象，笼统。尤其像报盘，询问贸易条款这类需要具体答复的信函，就更加强调写作时的具体。这样会使所表达的内容准确而又生动，使交流的内容更加清楚，更有助于加快事务的进程。例如，商品的某些质量和特征要用准确的数字，避免使用“长”，“短”，“好”这样的词语。时间用年月日标明，必要时甚至要注明小时，分钟，避免使用诸如“昨天”“下个月”“马上”等表达用语。

七、体贴原则（consideration）

體贴原则强调对方的情况而非我方情况，要体现一种为他人考虑、多体谅对方心情和处境的态度。当撰写商务英语文书时，要站在对方的立场去考虑他们的各种不同的愿望，要求，兴趣和困难，充分理解对方的心情、处境，寻找一种最好的方式将信息传递给对方。

八、结论

商务信函是买卖双方索取、传递信息，处理贸易活动中相关事宜、沟通联络感情的重要方式，同时也体现着一个公司或机构的商务形象。商务信函在商务活动中起着沟通桥梁的作用，它能够具体而快捷地传递双方各类相关商务信息，节约双方的时间，从而实现商务活动的便捷与高效。因此，商务信函对内容、形式、措辞等各方面都有要求。在日常的商务活动中，撰写商务信函时，应遵循商务信函写作的基本原则，有效传递信息，从而使商务信函更有利于双方的沟通合作。

7.商务英语信函的写作与翻译浅析 篇七

1 商务信函的语言特征

1.1 商务信函的词汇特征

第一, 选词力求礼貌客气, 多用书面语、谦辞、敬语, 充分体现商务信函规范正式、公事公办的特点。

第二, 多用here、there、where及after、by、under、to、with等复合副词与古体词。

第三, 用词准确、专业。英语词汇中同义词很多, 在书写商务信函时要注意根据语境要求体现语义差别, 力求选词精确、用词得当。

例1:For goods ordered we require payment to be made by a confirmed and irrevocable letter of credit payable at sight upon presentation of shipping documents.

译:所订货物的付款方式, 我们要求凭装船单据, 以保兑的, 不可撤销的即期信用证支付。

例2:Tea:firmer.Strong demand prevailed at the weekly auction where prices gained up to ten pence per kilo in places.

译:茶叶:较坚挺。普遍强劲的需求使每周茶叶拍卖行的价格每公斤涨了10便士。

其中所提及的ordered, confirmed and irrevocable letter of credit, firm, auction都是商贸术语, 在汉语中要根据语境译为“预订”、“保兑的, 不可撤销的信用证”“坚挺”、和“拍卖行”。

1.2 商务信函的句式特征

第一, 句式完整, 多用复杂句。由于英语是一种型合的语言, 主要依靠语法手段来表明其句法之间的关系, 因此, 不管是何种形式的省略都不常见, 而汉语是一种意合的语言, 主要利用语义来表明短语和句子之间的逻辑关系, 因此, 如果在语言环境中意义清楚的话, 几乎任何成分都可以省略。在翻译过程中, 应注意两种语言的区别。

例3:Because of the softness and durability, our cotton bed sheets and pillowcases are rapidly becoming popular, and after studying our prices you will not be surprised to learn that we are finding it difficult to meet the demand.

译:由于质地柔软、耐用, 我们的棉质床单和枕套倍受欢迎。谅你在研究我方价格之后, 自然会感到我们难以满足市场需求的原因。

第二, 肯定句多, 否定句少。肯定句使人感到委婉, 而否定句则使人感到生硬。在商务贸易中, 应多用肯定句, 使收函方见信后心情愉悦, 从而促进交易的进行。

第三, 多用固定表达的套语。写作商务信函, 可将某些套语应用到不同信函之中, 既可显示出信函的正式性, 同时又不失礼貌。

例4:We look forward to……

Thank you for your letter of+date……

1.3 商务信函的语气特征

商务信函的语气, 应力求礼貌、客气、委婉, 从而树立来函方的良好形象, 提高贸易的效果。在书写商务信函时, 要多用情态动词、被动语态和虚拟语气。

2 商务信函的翻译原则和实践

英语商务信函翻译是涉及贸易活动中不可缺少的部分, 翻译的质量更是直接影响到贸易双方的利益。一旦出现谬误, 必然会影响贸易双方的交往合作, 进而引起相关的经济纠纷乃至法律诉讼等一系列严重的问题。

2.1 商务信函的翻译原则

第一, 使用书面语言, 力求简洁规范, 采用公文文体;力求正式, 不可过于日常;要注意翻译时格式的变化。

第二, 运用地道的商业用语, 表现信函的商业风格。

例5:Some of the clauses in your L/C No.57 are not in agreement with the stipulations of the S/C.

译:你方第57号信用证中的一些条款与销售合同的规定不符。

第三, 注意细节, 力求完全, 避免错译漏译。翻译时对日期、数量、金额等细节要给予足够的重视, 万不可错译或漏译。

第四, 语气礼貌诚恳。要充分考虑收函人的阅信心情, 留心原文的语气, 对其进行再现。

例6:We shall always be very happy to hear from you and will carefully consider any proposals likely to lead to business between us.

译:我们会很高兴地听到你方消息, 并慎重考虑能达成交易的任何建议。

2.2 商务信函的翻译实践

为使学生掌握商务信函的翻译技巧, 曾要求学生将一份关于纺织品的英文商务信函译成中文, 通过归纳和概括, 本文可以得出以下结论:

第一, 大部分学生对于汉语和英语信函的写作格式的差异有清楚的认识。上交的30份作业中, 有26份作业注意到了汉语和英语在信函写作上的不同, 能译成齐头式, 并且把原位于信件右下脚的日期调整到了信件的左上脚。

第二, 多数学生能基本掌握商务信函的格式化语言、专业术语以及特殊含义的复合词。如Re表示关于, 是一种约定俗成的用法。C.I.F.表示到岸价, quotation表示报价, commission表示佣金, 都是价格术语。除少部分学生不能掌握外, 大多数都能正确运用。

第三, 对于礼貌的原则, 所有学生都能在其翻译中得到体现。尽管翻译的答案可能和标准答案稍有不同, 但是在语气、用词方面都很好地表达了礼貌和客气。如最后一句话, “如蒙早日复信, 不胜感激。”不少同学就译成了“we are looking forward to your early reply.”虽然该表达不能完全表达需要表达的意思, appreciate比起look forward to更书面语和正式, 但总体上也体现了贸易一方的诚恳的态度和礼貌的用语。

3 提高商务信函写作与翻译水平的建议

英语商务信函自身的特点决定了其写作不同与一般的英语写作, 有其独特性。因此, 在商务信函的写作过程中更应该注意到汉语和英语两种不同语言的差异。在商务信函写作中, 中国学生很容易受到汉语的影响, 会想当然地进行写作, 缺乏对英语商务信函语言特点的把握, 应该尽量避免。

商务信函的翻译则对学生提出了更高的要求。学生不仅需要熟练掌握贸易的相关知识, 更要对英语和汉语两种语言的相同之处和不同之处有清楚的认识。在进行商务信函的翻译过程中不仅要注重语言因素, 还要注重非语言因素, 如文化、习俗、表达习惯等。

总之, 商务信函的写作与翻译, 需要阅读大量的商务信函以了解其各种不同的格式, 以及不同情况下的变体。应通过多接触表达地道的英语商务信函, 使学生能逐渐达到“熟读唐诗三百首, 不会做诗也会吟”的境界。

8.商务信函范文英语 篇八

关键词：商务英语信函；语言特点；翻译技巧

中图分类号：H315.9 文献标识码：A 文章编号：1674-7712 （2012） 14-0177-01

作为涉外商务活动中传递信息和洽谈业务的主要手段——商务信函得到越来越广泛的使用和普遍的重视。商务英语信函具有特定的对象，在词汇和句式上具有特定的特征。在商务英语信函翻译中，要做到忠实、通顺，译者应遵循准确规范，功能对等的原则。

一、商务英语信函的语言特点

（一）商务英语信函的词汇特点

1.大量使用专业词汇。这些词汇具有高度的术语性，专用性极强，大多是从普通用语赋予新的特殊含义发展而来。如：offer一词的基本含义是“给予，提供”，在商务英语中的含义是“发盘、报价”，即卖方主动向买方提供商品信息、价格信息的行为。Produce专指农产品，而product专指工业制成品。2.常使用商务缩略术语。商务缩略语源于国际行业惯例，是在长期的商业实践基础上逐渐产生，约定俗成的。这些缩略语更为简洁和易用，有助于业务双方提高工作效率，因而在商务英语信函中大量存在，例如： D/P. （Documents against Payment）；L/C （ letter of credit信用证）；FOB （ Free on board离岸价）； B/L （ bill of lading提单）。3.使用正式的书面语。比起普通私函，商务英语信函在措辞上更为庄重、客观、严谨。这是因为信函中的言辞意味着交易方式的承诺和表态，在一定程度上展示出业务双方的形象和素质。另外，商务信函中多用派生名词替代动词来表示动作行为，避免涉及时、体、态等因素，使得信函更为客观、正式。

（二）商务英语信函的句式特点

国际商务英语信函时常使用完整正式的句型、固定的习语、倒装句、用陈述句表示委婉的祈使语气以期待对方采取所希望的业务行为。另外还常用多层次复杂的从句和长句，来表达多层次的复杂逻辑关系和相互关联的意思，而这是短句无法比拟的。

二、商务英语信函的翻译技巧及策略

由于英汉两种语言在表达方式和句法结构上存在差异，为了表达的清晰和自然，商务英语翻译需要运用一定的方法和技巧。科学地掌握英语翻译方法和技巧，并能合理的运用，是做好英语翻译的关键。在现代商务英语信函中，最常用的翻译方法有：增译法、减译法、转译法、分译法及习惯术语的译法。

（一）增译法。增译法，是指在翻译时适当的增添一些词、短句或句子使译文的表达形式更加完整、内容更加容易被读者所理解的翻译方法。例如：We comply with your request and give you the lowest price. 应贵方要求，给予贵方最低价。We are awaiting your favorable news. 静候佳音。

以上两个例子在翻译第一个例子时，增补了动词短语“comply with”，翻译原译文第二个例子增补了代词“your”，如果不增补动词短语“comply with”和代词“your”和”的话，两个句子结构就会出现语法错误或不符合英语的语言表达习惯。通过增译保证了原文意思的明确和句子结构的完整。

（二）减译法。减译法，即在翻译时删去一些与译入语思维、语言习惯和表达方式不相符的词和内容。例如：We take this opportunity to inform you that we are now in a position to make prompt shipment of merchandise. 兹奉告，该商品可即期装运。Shall we meet each other half way？ 我们折中处理好吗？第一个例子中英语短语“meet each other half way”在原译文中减译为“折中处理”。在第二个例子中减译了take this opportunity 这一表达，省略了三个代词，并且原文中的“in a position” 用一个汉字“可”即可表达。

（三）转译法。转译法，是指在翻译过程中对原句中的词类、句型和语态等进行转译从而使译文符合译入语的表述方式、方法和语言习惯。

Payment by sight L/C is acceptable to us.用即期信用证支付我们可以接受。We now take pleasure in placing the following order with you.我们很高兴地向你方订货如下。

在以上两个例子中，第一个例子中动词词组“take pleasure”相应地译成副词“高兴地”，在第二个例子中由含有动作意味的名词“payment”译为动词“付款”。通过转译使译文更清晰自然，符合汉语的表达习惯。

（四）分译法。所谓分译法，就是在翻译时将原文中的单词、短语或者从句从原结构中脱离出来，扩展成若干汉语单句以符合汉语的表达习惯。例如：

Although your price is below our level， we accept you order in view of our initial business.虽然你方价格比我们低，但考虑到这是我们之间的第一笔交易，就接受了你方订货了。

Unfortunately the goods you ordered can not be supplied due to heavy commitments. 很不幸，所订货物由于需求太多而无法供应。

在以上两个例句，第一个例子中把介词短语“in view of our initial business.”译成句子“但考虑到这是我们之间的第一笔交易”，第二个例子将英语中单个做定语的名词“Unfortunately”扩展翻译成单句“很不幸”。

（五）习惯术语的译法。国际商务英语信函是一种公函，因此常带有一些古词来显示信函的礼貌和正式。这些词语在长期的使用实践中，逐渐地固定下来，被广泛使用于商务信函中。如：商务英语信函用词专业性强主要体现在使用了大量的专业术语、缩略语等，如：FOB（离岸价），CIF（到岸价），B/L（提货单）等，专业术语或缩略语必须约定俗成、国际通用，不能任意更改替换，因此，译者在翻译的过程中不能望文生义，要结合其特定内涵和语境来翻译。

三、结论

措辞得体的商务交流可以帮助一个公司建构良好的商业形象，进而促成贸易合作，反之，则会给公司带来消极负面的影响，使商务活动失败。在翻译商务英语函电的过程中，必须抓住商务英语信函在词汇和句式上的特点，了解中西文化差异，运用恰当的翻译方法，才能撰写出质量上乘的商务英语信函。当然，只有通过不断地学习和探索，才能逐步提高商务英语信函的翻译水平。
