2.中英文商务合同对照 篇二
写作合同之前的准备工作十分重要, 要确定合同的写作提纲, 重要的问题要考虑周全, 避免遗漏。可以要求客户列出合同交易的要点, 也可以说是合同的清单、目录或概述, 还可以在办公室的电脑中或是在网上搜索类似的合同范本。可以在电脑中搜寻类似的合同范本, 要么是你给其他客户准备的, 要么是你和其他律师共同协商起草的, 使用这些旧合同可以节省时间和避免打印错误。
一、起草合同时应注意的问题
在确定了合同的写作提纲之后, 就可以开始正式的写作了。在起草时, 要注意一些细节问题, 这些内容可能会影响到合同的法律效力。标题上注明“Contract” (合同) 字样, 如果你的客户需要合同, 就要注明是合同, 如果想让你的文件成为具有法律效力的合同, 就要在标题中注明“合同”字样。一般来说起草合同要尽量写短句子, 因为短句子比长句子更容易理解, 不容易产生误会, 意思也更清楚、明了。
在合同的写作中, 要多用主动语态, 少用被动语态。相对而言, 主动语态的句子更简短, 措词更精练, 表达更明白。让我们来看一个例子, “Sellers shall sell the Property to Buyer” (卖方将把此物卖给买方) 和“The Property shall be sold to Buyer by Seller.” (此物将被卖方卖给买方。) 显然, 前者要比后者更简洁、明了。
二、注意合同的措辞, 要准确、清晰, 避免歧义
合同中的用词要严谨, 意思应该清楚, 不要用“Lessor”and“Lessee.” (“出租人”和“承租人”) , 这对一个租赁合同来说是不好的别称, 因为他们容易被颠倒或者出现打印错误。可以用“Landlord”and“Tenant” (“房东”和“租户”) 来代替他们。要把握的一条原则是, 在整个合同中, 对合同一方只能用一个别称。
使用术语“herein” (本文, 也可译为“在这里”) 时要注意, 为了避免含糊不清, 使用“本文”时最好特别申明一下“本文”是指整个合同, 还是指其所在的某一段落。
如果你想用“including” (包括) 这个词, 就要考虑在其后加上“but not limited to…” (“但不限于……”) 的分句, 除非你能够列出所有被包括的项, 否则最好用“但不限于……”的分句, 来说明你只是想举个例子。
三、掌握一些英文合同常用语句
合同中有些语句是模式化的, 在大多数的合同中都会出现, 在平时的学习和工作中, 可以积累一些这样的语句, 也可以直接从现成的合同文本中引用, 比如:
The contract is made out in English and Chinese languages in quadruplicate, all texts being equally authentic, and each Party shall hold two copies of each text.
(本合同用英文和中文两种文字写成, 一式四份。双方执英文本和中文本各一式两份, 两种文字具有同等效力。)
The contract shall be valid for 10 years from the effective date of the contract.On the expiry of the validity term of contract, the contract shall automatically become null and void.
(本合同有效期从合同生效之日算起共10年, 有效期满后, 本合同自动失效。)
The outstanding claims and liabilities existing between both parties on the expiry of the validity of the contract shall not be influenced by the expiration of this contract.The debtor shall be kept liable until the debtor fully pays up his debts to the creditor.
(本合同期限届满时, 双方发生的未了债权和债务不受合同期满的影响, 债务人应向债权人继续偿付未了债务。)

7.中英文商务合同对照 篇七
1 Preface
As is well known,the language used in our daily life may not or need not be clear and precise all the time,especially in continuous communication.Fuzzy linguistics originated from Lotf A.Zadeh's paper on Fuzzy Sets in 1965,and from then on a systematic study of this language phenomenon began.
Just as everything has two sides,vague language is not only negative or undesirable,either.Polish philosopher Adam Schaf(1979)proposed that communication needs words of vagueness and if the vague words are eliminated totally from communication,our language will be very poor and expressions will be greatly restrained.Furthermore,the goal of language might be destroyed and communication may become quite difficult.
Recently,more and more scholars have probed into this field,but different opinions still exist on what vagueness refers to Vague language is neither all"good"nor all"bad"but plays an important part in daily communication.Based on the facts that the concept of the vague language itself is complex and more and more vague language is used in international business contract after China's entry into WTO and the tendency of globalization,this paper starts with an introduction to the international business contract and the theory of vagueness.By quoting major definitions on vagueness,the paper analyzes the existence of the vague language and tells the difference between ambiguity and vagueness with examples to offer a better understanding of vague language.
2.1 The adaptation to the language users
Language choices are the reflections of the language users awareness and the products of the language users'psychologica reaction.Sometimes in order not to leave a handle to the othe side,either party uses the vague language in the contract as a tool for limitation,and sometimes the use of vague language is out of habitual expressions.The party that strives for conciseness and directness may feel it unnecessary to make his meaning clear.On the other hand,such vague language may be used by parties who are acquaintances or strangers.What's more,because of the special characters of vague language,both parties know that it can make the terms of the contract precise and complete,such as:
1)This section sets out the scope of the installation covered by these specifications concerning specially required supplies and service,but without excluding other necessary components and services not mentioned.(Lin Hai,2005:66)
In this example,there is no doubt that"without excluding..."is of vagueness for the bidder-side.It is difficult for the bidderside to define the standard of supplies and services.But if two parties of long-standing cooperation sign this contract,the embarrassing situation will not appear.
What is worth mentioning is,the language user is not only an executor to be adapted to the mental,the social and the physical worlds,but also affected by them.
2.2 The adaptation to the mental world
The mental world includes the two communicative sides'cognitive and affective factors,such as personalities,emotions,desires and intentions.(Verschueren,1999:88)
People use vague language for adaptation to psychological motivations like avoiding embarrassment or conflict,saving"face",or for adapting linguistic reality and social conventions.Since it focuses on the deliberate use of vague language in English business contract,this paper pays special attention that the strategic use of vague language in English business contract should be adapted to the communicative context.
The following two examples are quoted from Liu Xiaojuan and Wang Hongmei's On the Use of Vague Language's Pragmatic Strategy in Business English.(2007)
2)If under the contact the Buyer is to specify the form measurement or other features of goods and he fails to make such specification either on the date agreed upon or within a reasonable time after receipt of a request from the Seller,the Selle may,without prejudice to any other rights he may have,make the specification himself in accordance with the requirements of the Buyer that may be known to him.
The example has three vague wordings."Specify the form measurement"follows the vague language of"other features"and makes this clause have certain generality,so the meaning is closer.Moreover,what does"other right"refer to?What does"a reasonable time"mean?There is not a clear and uniform limit but the usage is all right and reflects the terms of the contract's applicability and foreseeability.
Come back to the example 1)again,we may find that even if two parties cooperate for the first time,the vague language"without excluding..."can still be used,because it adapts to both sides'mental world.In terms of the tender,this vague language can have enough room to manoeuvre;in terms of the bidder,he will be happy to see if there is no a clear additional provision,as few obligations will be fulfilled by the bidder.Consequently,the contract drafted by the tender can attract more bidders.
2.3 The adaptation to the social world
The social world refers to social occasion,environment principles and norms that normalize people's communicative behaviours.(Xiu Qiongying,2008:52)
A well-known British scholar Leech put forward the"Politeness Principle"that plays a very important role in making communication successful.The main maxims of the Politeness Principle are tact,generosity,approbation,modesty,agreemen and sympathy.
Business contract,as a special style stipulating two sides rights and duties,makes transaction and cooperation complete,so the choice and the usage of language have to comply with the politeness principle—as far as possible expand two sides'benefits,let each other earn more respect,favourable impression approval and finally realize successful cooperation.
For instance:
3)The parties may,through consultation,make amendments to the revision of this contract and when the needs arise,should all or part of the contract be unable to be fulfilled owing to the fault of one party,the breaching party shall bear the responsibilities thus caused.Should it be the fault of both parties,they shal bear their respective responsibilities according to actual situations.
In the example,"may","when the needs arise","shall","respective responsibilities"are of vagueness.These words are in line with politeness principle,and can protect either party's own interests even though any change appears in future,and can expand the interests of both signatories.
Therefore,it is obvious that the vague words not only preserve two sides'face,but also protect either side's interests and leave a favourable impression on the co-operator.
2.4 The adaptation to the physical world
The physical world is a real,tangible context including five factors—specific subject,target,time,space(scene)and subject.Any one of the five factors'change will lead to a specific psychology and affect language choices and communicative form(Verschueren,1999:95)
In the following two examples,one is quoted from Internet A Model of Compensation Trade Contract,and the other is from Sun Zhixiang.
4)ARTICLE 3 Reimbursement
The reimbursement shall start approximately____month(s)after the first delivery of the machines and,in principle,the money to be reimbursed per month shall be______percent of the total amount due for the machines.With a______month(s)notice to Party B,Party A may reimburse Party B in advance.
ARTICLE 12 Force Majeure
In case that one or both parties are impossible to perform the duties provided herein on account of force majeure,the party(or parties)in contingency shall inform the other party(or each other)of the case immediately and may,provided the case is duly verified by the competent authorities,delay in performance of or not perform the relevant duties hereunder the be partially or entirely exempted from the liability for breach of this agreement.
5)The registered capital shall generally be represented in Renminbi,or may be in a foreign currency agreed upon by the parties to the joint venture.(Sun Zhixiang,2001:55)
In the examples 4)and 5)"approximately","in principle","may","in case","or","shall","the competent authorities"and"generally"all have vagueness,but they adapt to the physical world.In 4),the results of the compensation will change with the change of specific situation.In 5),the registered capital may be changed by different circumstance.
In fact,the vague words in all above examples do adapt to the physical world,and make the contract more abundant and humanized.Meanwhile,they also show the adaptation to the four perspectives against the communicative context is not isolated from each other but is interconnected.The other point worth our attention is that adaptation should not be interpreted unidirectionally,in other words,not only are the selections of the vague language made in accordance with the communicative context's four perspectives,but the four perspectives should also get changed by,or adapted to,the selections that are made.
3 Conclusion
With the increasing globalization and developing international trade,the international business contract as a need of business'security receives more and more attention,so the vague language as a common language phenomenon in international business contract has been widely discussed.The contradiction between the language features of a contract—precision and clarity and the existence of the vague language has become more and more obvious.The vague language in international contract is the result of linguistic adaptation and a means to satisfy both sides'needs,expectations,"face"and so on.

邮件开头
为保持结构上的清晰、简洁,方便收件人快速获取邮件的主要信息,商务电子邮件的开头部分不宜过长,以3~4行为宜。写开头部分时,可参照以下三种形式。
1. 直接点出邮件主旨。
一般而言,西方人喜欢开门见山的表达方式,因此他们常在邮件的开头部分直接点出邮件主旨。常见的直接表达邮件主旨的句型如下。
With reference to the proposal, I would like to ...
I am writing because …
I am writing about …
I wish to apologize/invite/complain …
I am very pleased/delighted to recommend …
2. 先提及与收件人之前的沟通情况(包括发邮件、发传真、打电话或见面等),然后再点出邮件主旨。
这种形式在商务电子邮件的开头部分比较常见,常用的句型如下。
Further to our telephone call/meeting this morning, I am attaching/sending …
Thank you for your fax/email/letter/inquiry/order … Now I am pleased to confirm …
It was a/my great pleasure to talk to you/meet you/receive … Now I am pleased to inform you that …
3. 先简要介绍写信人自身的情况或与邮件主旨相关的信息,然后再点出邮件主旨。
这种形式通常适用于首次进行商务沟通的人之间。具体来说,写信人需要介绍的内容大体分为三类:①介绍自身的情况(如姓名、工作地点、职位等);②说明自己是如何获取收信人的信息(如姓名、邮件地址等)的;③介绍与邮件主旨相关的信息。下面举例说明这一形式常用的句型。
I would like to introduce myself. My name is Michael Lee, and I work as an engineer at HDC. I have been appointed to be your service engineer with immediate effect (即时生效).
We have learnt from our factory in Ningbo City that you are looking for a supplier of paint brushes (油漆刷). As we have been dealing in (经营) this line for more than 30 years, we would like to enter into a business relationship with you.
On Saturday, 3rd March, I bought a BX Mountain bike from your shop. Since then I have had to return it eight times for repairs. I wish to apply for a replacement from you.
上述三种形式在商务电子邮件中都比较常见。无论采用哪种形式开篇,写信人都应尽量言简意赅地点出邮件主旨。
邮件结尾
商务电子邮件的结尾部分应力求简练,避免与上文的内容出现重复。在写这一部分内容时,写信人应注意措辞礼貌得体,语调积极乐观,尽量给收件人留下良好的印象。商务电子邮件常见的结尾方式有三种:①要求对方采取行动;②表示自己可以为对方提供帮助或反馈意见等;③感谢对方提供的帮助,或期待与对方开展合作。下面笔者一一介绍。
1. 要求对方采取行动。
这是商务电子邮件比较常见的结尾方式,通常要求收件人尽早采取行动,包括答复写信人的邮件、确认相关信息(如交货、付款等内容信息)等。以下为要求对方采取行动的常用句型。
I am looking forward to your early reply.
I am looking forward to meeting you soon.
I would appreciate it very much if you could confirm the order ...
I would be grateful if you could make the payment by the end of ...
2. 表示自己可以为对方提供帮助或反馈意见等。
为了保持与收件人更为顺畅的沟通和合作,写信人有时会在邮件结尾表明自己愿意为对方提供帮助,或声明自己会针对某一问题及时作出反馈。以这种方式结尾的常用句型如下。
If you need any more information, please feel free to contact me. You can reach me on my direct line: 86-21-53456677.
I will call you next Tuesday to discuss this matter.
We will give you a reply immediately after reviewing your proposal.
3. 感谢对方提供的帮助,或期待与对方开展合作。
在商务邮件的结尾,若无其他需要强调的实质性内容,写信人通常会采用这种方式来对对方提供的帮助表示感谢,或表示期待与对方开展进一步的合作。以这种方式结尾的常用句型如下。
I really appreciate your cooperation in solving this problem.
We would be extremely pleased to have you as a regular customer.
I am looking forward to cooperating with you.
We are looking forward to providing our service for you at an early date.
案例分析
下面我们以一封英文商务电子邮件为例,来具体分析撰写英文商务电子邮件常出现的问题和应注意的事项。
Dear Peter,
Mr. Jackson, our eBusiness Department head, will visit the Beijing subsidiary of ABC on April 12. He will hold a meeting regarding eBusiness communication and coordination between all ABC subsidiary companies. The estimated time for this meeting is two hours. I would like to set up this meeting with you: please confirm your availability for this date and time. Please also give me the names and phone numbers of anyone from your staff who you feel will benefit from this meeting.
Your prompt reply would be appreciated.
Best regards,
Jack Lee
ABC Building Shanghai
这封邮件的作者是某外企总公司商务部的一名助理。他写信的目的是通知北京分部的相关人士与他一起安排在北京分部召开的一次关于电子商务沟通的会议。上海总公司的电子商务部经理将出任会议主持人,并作一个主题演讲。写信人希望收件人确认会议的具体时间以及参会人员名单。这封邮件主要存在以下两个问题。
1. 没有在开头点出邮件主旨。
通过上述的介绍可知,这封邮件的核心内容是想通知北京分部的相关人士与写信人一起安排会议。但该邮件并没有在开头部分将这一主旨点出来,而是先介绍了一些次要信息。这一写法也体现了中西方的思维差异。根据美国学者Kaplan的调查,西方人的思维呈直线型,在进行语言表达时,他们喜欢直截了当、直奔主题,常采用先总后分、先重要后次要的表达方式;而东方人的思维呈螺旋型,在进行语言表达时,他们则比较委婉、含蓄,一般不直入主题,多采用先分后总、先次要后重要的表达方式。认识到中西方的这种思维和表达差异,我们在写英文邮件时就应该克服中式思维的影响,努力使自己的表达符合英文习惯。具体到这篇邮件中,写信人应该在邮件开头直接点出主旨。
2. 开头段落囊括了所有的信息点,层次混乱。
这封邮件的层次比较混乱,全文没有区分开头、主体和结尾段,而是将所有的信息都堆在了第一段中,容易给收件人造成阅读和理解障碍。另外,这篇邮件除了交代上文提到的核心内容外,还介绍了几点与会议相关的其他信息,包括会议的目的、主持人等。写信人在开头点明主旨后,应将这些相关信息放在主体段进行分段论述,以使邮件的结构更清晰,意思更明了。
邮件修改
