商务英语信函摘要.ppt

要使用简洁的语言，有可能的话， 尽量使用单词来代替某些娇柔做作的短语。 删去不必要的形容词，如下列句子中的形容词或副词删去后并不影响句子的原意： The proposal is under (active) consideration. The answer is (definitely) correct. I would (rather) think the fare is too high. The (true) facts are as stated . （三） 要注意每句句子的长短 例如： “We would like to know whether you would allow us to extend the time of shipment for twenty days, and if you would be so kind as to allow us to do so, kindly give us your reply by cable without delay.” 　 这句话过分“客气”，使句子过长而不清楚。内容要求对方同意延期交货20天，一般情况下，应尽可能提出延期到那一天的具体日期。 这句话可压缩为： Please reply by telegram immediately if you will allow us to delay the shipment until April 21. 七、正确原则(correctness) 商业书信必须写得正确，因为它涉及到买卖双方的权利，义务，厉害关系，是各种商业单据（如合同）的根据。 广义的说，商业书信的正确性表现在： （一） 运用正确的语言水平 （二） 叙述得正确 （三） 数字要正确 （四） 正确理解和运用商业术语 You ask very short delivery for your order. 写信的人原意是说“你们要求赶快交你们的定货。” 可是short delivery不是快点交货的意思，而是“短交，交货不足”的意思，这就用错了商业术语。 You require quick (prompt) delivery of your order. 格式规范 功能对等 内容忠实 * 建立业务关系函 (cooperation intention) 产品推销函 (promotion) 资信查询函 (credit inquiry) 询盘函 (inquiry) 发盘还盘函 (offer and counter-offer) 订购函 (purchase) 装运通知函 (shipment) 支付结算函 (payment) 索赔函 (claim) 保险函 (insurance) 商务信函分类：10种商务信函涵盖了商品交易过程中的各个环节。 （1）用词规范正式，多用书面语 商务信函用语 日常用语 中译文 in accordance with according to 根据 in advance of / prior to before … 之前 inform / advise tell 通知 duplicate copy 副本 dispatch send 发货 otherwise or 否则 therefore so 因此 In connection with/ in view of about 鉴于 我们确认已经以电报的方式给你们发出了一项实盘，该实盘成立的条件就是你们的答复在10月10日之前到达我们这里。 1.现确认已向贵方电发实盘，10月10日前复到有效。 We confirm that we have sent you a firm offer by telegraph and it is subject to your reply reaching us by October 10.
