日常应用文翻译二 事务应用文的翻译 英文事务书信与社交书信没有十分严格的界限，其行文格式基本一样，区别在于书信的目的、措辞和语气方面。事务信件措辞更严谨，语气更庄严。翻译事务性书信，可适当套用汉语相应书信和公函的常用习语，表达原文的意思。 1推荐信 推荐信内容一般侧重被推荐人的学业、工作、品行等方面的概括评价，一般措辞精炼，语气中肯，叙事客观。译时，应注意朴实的汉语组织译文。写给单位的推荐信，其称呼常用“To Whom It May Concern”, 意思是 “致有关人士”，可套用汉语书函用语，将其译成“敬启者”或“台鉴”等。此外，自荐信与推荐信大同小异，可参照推荐信的翻译要求处理。 To Whom It May Concern, This is to certify that the holder of the letter, Mr. Martin is a graduate of the Foreign Language Department of our university, majoring in the Chinese language and literature.
