英語(yǔ)詞匯多達(dá)幾十萬(wàn),并且詞語(yǔ)表義較為靈活,對(duì)上下文的依賴也較大。如,"board"一詞,本義為"木板",但在不同上下文中,可以表示" 車"、"船"、"伙食"、"會(huì)議桌"、"委員會(huì)"等。而在商務(wù)英語(yǔ)中,"board"往往用來表示"董事會(huì)",如,"chairman or president of the board"(董事會(huì)主席或董事長(zhǎng));或者,它經(jīng)常用在FOB (Free on Board,離岸價(jià),船上交貨價(jià))價(jià)格術(shù)語(yǔ)中,意思是"船"。下面是小編為大家搜索整理的商務(wù)英語(yǔ)考試閱讀翻譯高頻短語(yǔ)解析,希望能給大家?guī)韼椭?更多精彩內(nèi)容請(qǐng)及時(shí)關(guān)注我們應(yīng)屆畢業(yè)生考試網(wǎng)!
在商務(wù)英語(yǔ)中,有著許多通過引申、轉(zhuǎn)換、添加等手段而獲得的有別于普通英語(yǔ)詞義的具有"新義"的"舊詞"。
例如:
literature 在普通英語(yǔ)中,它表示"文學(xué)";而在商務(wù)英語(yǔ)中,它則表示"printed matters, including leaflets, instruction, product catalogue, price list, etc. (文字宣傳資料,諸如產(chǎn)品說明書、產(chǎn)品目錄、價(jià)目表等)"。
例如:

例如 :
My reference will prove to you that I am efficient and dependable. (我的擔(dān)保人將向你證明我的工作是高效的,并且我是可信賴的。) 除了屬于英語(yǔ)共核部分(English common core)的詞匯以外,商務(wù)英語(yǔ)還有著其特別的專門詞匯。
