常见商务英语翻译错误几例
时间：2008-10-28 11:26:19 来源：日照纤纤英语翻译服务中心作者：编辑：访问次数：点击次数:8 【关闭】在一些由中文翻译的英语样本、合同、广告和其他文件材料中常见一些翻译错误，现仅举几个出现频率较高的例子，试作分析，谨供读者朋友参考。
1.由港澳国际投资公司投资的海口电站工程因其建设速度和质量得到高度评价。
原译文：The Haikou Power Station Project invested by the Hongkong-Macau International Investment Co, Ltd. was highly appraised for its construction speed and quality.
注：投资某项工程应为invest in a project，在被动语态中不能漏去前置词in。应译为：
The Haikou Power Station Project invested in（在某些情况下可用financed or funded） by the Hongkong-Macau International Investment Co., Ltd. was highly appraised for its construction speed and quality.
2.上海SFECO拥有5个控股子公司。
原译文：Shanghai SFECO Group has 5 share-holding companies.
注：share-holding company指控制或持有某公司股权的股东公司。上述译文意思是5个公司持有Shanghai SFECO Group 的股份，换句话说，这5个公司是“老子”公司，因此显然不符合中文原意。
应译为：
Shanghai SFECO Group is a holding company of 5 subsidiary companies. 或Shanghai SFECO Group holds shares of 5 subsidiary companies.
3.中国民生银行有限公司
原译文：China Minsheng Banking Corporation, Ltd.
注：corporation本身即为有限公司，相当于limited company，英译中无需再加“Ltd”。应译为：
China Minsheng Banking Corporation
4.项目中标之后，我们将立即开始前期准备工作。
原译文：After the bid is awarded, we shall immediately start our advance-phase preparation.
注：项目中标应为accept a bid or award the contract。显然上述译文把两种表达法相混淆了。应译为：
After the bid is accepted (or the contract is awarded), we shall immediately start our advance-phase preparation.
5.欢迎您参观我们交易会
原译文：Welcome you to visit our fair!
注：译文中welcome是动词，因此此句是祈使句形式，省略的主语为第二人称你（你们），而不是中文所含的我（我们）之意。应译为：
We welcome you to visit our trade fair!
更简洁而地道的译法是：Welcome to our trade fair!
6.我公司出口工业产品、化工产品、医药等。
原译文：Our company exports industrial products, chemicals, medicines and etc..
注：etc.等于and so on或and others，已含有and的成分，上述译文无需加上and一词。应译为：Our company exports industrial products, chemicals, medicines, etc..
7.我们将委托贵公司作为我公司在毛里求斯的业务代理。
原译文：We hereby entrust your company to be our business agent in Mauritius.
注：entrust一词在作委托解时用法为entrust somebody with something or entrust something to somebody。应译为：
We hereby appoint your company to be our business agent in Mauritius.
8.本合同签订之后，签约双方中任何一方不得将合同内容泄露给第三方。
原译文：Any of the two parties can not divulge the contents of the contract to a third party after the conclusion of the contract.
注：双方中任何一方为either of the two parties，三方（或三方以上）中任何一方才用any of the parties，因本句为否定句，应译为：Neither of the two parties can divulge the contents of the contract to a third party after the conclusion of the contract.
9.在双方签约之后，各方将严格遵守本协议。
原译文：After this agreement is signed by the two parties, all parties shall strictly abide by it.
注：与上一条相类似，在协议当事方为三方（或三方以上）时，各方为all parties，而当事方为两方时应用both parties。应译为：
After this agreement is signed by the two parties, both parties shall strictly abide by it.
今年1月，史蒂夫?乔布斯(Steve Jobs)走上旧金山芳草地艺术中心(Yerba Buena Center)的舞台发布iPad，完成了现代商业史上最引人注目的一次复出。 这不仅仅关乎半年前迫使他退居幕后的疾病。病魔一度令乔布斯严重消瘦，最终不得不进行肝脏移植手术。而就在十多年前，几乎所有人认为乔布斯的事业及其共同创立的苹果公司(Apple)已经走上绝路。硅谷和华尔街都断定，它们已经与科技的未来无缘。 然而，到了今年初，苹果已然重生。在1月份的发布会之前，即使是按照乔布斯自己的苛刻标准衡量，外界对苹果的期望程度也是异乎寻常的。 批评者总是用贬抑的口吻谈论乔布斯创造的“现实扭曲场”：他能让观众信服，那些在其他厂商手中似乎尚未成形的技术已经被苹果完美地应用。为了激起消费者购买他们自己也不知道是否真正需要的电子产品的欲望，打消他们的疑虑极其关键，而乔布斯则早就被公认为这种艺术形式的大师。 这不仅仅关乎半年前迫使他退居幕后的疾病。病魔一度令乔布斯严重消瘦，最终不得不进行肝脏移植手术。而就在十多年前，几乎所有人认为乔布斯的事业及其共同创立的苹果公司(Apple)已经走上绝路。硅谷和华尔街都断定，它们已经与科技的未来无缘。 对于F?斯科特?菲茨杰拉德(F. Scott Fitzgerald)广为流传的名言（美国人的生命中没有第二幕）而言，没有比这更坚决的反驳了。乔布斯首次登上报纸头条时，甚至比现在的马克?扎克伯格(Mark Zuckerberg)
还要年轻。早在书呆子备受追捧之前，由于在普及个人电脑(PC)中发挥的关键作用，以及苹果在华尔街的成功上市（当时乔布斯年仅25岁），乔布斯就成为了科技界的第一个摇滚明星。 如今，三十年过去了，乔布斯成为了在塑造世纪之交的世界中居功至伟的美国西海岸的几大科技巨头之一。他的老对手比尔?盖茨(Bill Gates)或许更富有，而且在盖茨的事业巅峰时期，凭借其在PC软件领域的垄断，可以说盖茨的影响力比乔布斯更大。但盖茨已经离开了舞台，将其余生和财富奉献给慈善事业。如今，乔布斯才是焦点所在。这些年来，在苹果针对微软的所有打击中，没有一次比得过iPad的巨大成功造成的冲击。近十年前，盖茨自己也开发过一款平板电脑，但由于需要用笔在屏幕上写字，并且采用与PC一样的界面，该产品并未带动多少需求。 iPad则完全不同。iPad延续了iPhone在屏幕多用途以及用于具体任务的轻量级“应用程序”方面的创新，代表着一个没有计算机鼠标和没有Windows的未来。廉价上网本的销售已经受到了冲击。 不是所有数字专家都欢迎这样的未来。通过操纵在线商店销售的应用程序，以及为开发这些应用制定规则，苹果对这个新王国的控制更胜于微软对PC的控制。 对批评者来说，这是乔布斯完美主义的阴暗面。依赖苹果善意的新思想很可能会被扼杀。曾经的盟友谷歌(Google)站到了苹果的对立面。谷歌以web的开放性为基础，建立了自己的智能手机软件模式。 然而，就目前而言，那些担忧很大程度上仍然是一种假设，众多消费

2020年高级BEC商务英语翻译练习题 为了让大家更好的准备高级商务英语BEC考试，给大家整理高级商务英语翻译练习题,下面就和大家分享，来欣赏一下吧。 2020年高级商务英语翻译练习题一 Mosquitoes Have Shaped Societies as Well as Decimating Them During the second world war, American troops in the Far East were said to have two foes. The first was Japanese. One propaganda poster depicted an enemy’s sabre, slick with blood. The second adversary had no sword but was terrifying all the same. Malaria-carrying mosquitoes infected around 60% of Americans stationed in the Pacific at least once. Drugs such as Atabrine could help, but nasty side-effects meant that some GIs shunned their daily dose –with predictable consequences. “These Men Didn’t Take Their Atabrine” warned a sign propped below a pair of human skulls in Papua New Guinea.

Passage 1 实施本土化对跨国公司来讲是一项十分重要、并且是一箭双雕的战略决策。它不但能有效降低向东道国派遣高级管理人员的成本，与此同时，还能充分利用东道国相对低廉的人力资源。从长远来看，把当地优秀的经理人员提拔到决策者的位子上来是十分明智的选择，因为他们比较熟悉本国的法律法规，了解本国的市场行情，决无文化方面的障碍，并能有效地与当地各部门进行沟通。简而言之，他们更熟悉本国政府制定的游戏规则。但要吸引并留住这些优秀人才，跨国公司必须做一件实实在在的事情：即给他们提供自身发展和事业进步的机遇。 Implementing localization is a very important strategic decision to multinationals which can kill two birds with one stone. It can not only reduce the cost of dispatching senior managers to host country, but also take advantage of relative cheap labor power in the host country. In the long term, it’s a wise choice to promote local excellent managers to decision-makers, because they are more familiar with local laws and regulations and market situation, and they have no obstacles in terms of culture so they can efficiently communicate with local departments. In one word, they are more familiar with rules established by local government. However, in order to attract and keep excellent personnel, multinationals must do something substantial, that is, offer them some opportunities to improve themselves and make progress in their own career. Passage 2 中国经济体系中，某些产业的发展非常迅速。在当前石油价格高涨的环境下，从通货膨胀的角度上看，这些迅速发展的产业值得引起人们的注意和警惕。中国政府已经意识到了这一点。为了控制某些产业过度的增长，官方采取了渐进的调整手段，来避免因一系列宏观调控可能引起太过突然的变化。为此，政府首先是集中力量，对一些特别的产业进行调控，而不是针对整个经济。举例来说，政府并没有去提高整体的利率，而仅仅是提高了某些产业的利率，从而使得这一批借款人去承担较大的风险。 In the Chinese economic system, some industries are developed at a very high speed. And in the condition of the high price of gasoline, these fast-developed industries are worth people’s attention and alertness, if we think about it from a view of inflation. The government has carried out some step-by-step measures in order to control the excessive increase of some industry, which is to avoid the sudden changes result from the macroeconomic control. Therefore, the government first concentrates on the control of some special industries instead of the whole economy. For example: the government increased the interest rate of some industries, but not the unitary interest rate, so that these borrowers would take on greater risks. Passage 3 当跨国公司的经理进入一种全新的文化中时，他很可能会经历一种“困惑”，这种困 惑被称之为“文化冲击”，它使得跨国公司的经理有如迷失了方向，而显得不知所措。文化冲击是一种痛苦而令人难忘的经历，它要求跨国公司的经理去应对一系列有别于自身文化的、令人眼花缭乱的新的文化信息和文化环境。它可能表现为温和的忧虑和不适，也可能是十分严重的焦躁不安或手足无措，使得跨国公司的经理无法履行其正常的职责。由于跨国公司的经理不懂当地的语言或者非言语的行为，他自己的行为也就失去了赖以评判的标准。 When a manager in a multinational enters into a totally new culture, he is likely to undergo a kind of “puzzle”, which can be called as “culture shock”. It makes the manager lose his way and seem to be at a loss. Cultural shock is a painful and unforgettable experience, which requires the manager to deal with some new and dazzling cultural information and environment which are
