Language itself is the
7、carrier of culture, determines the language of the communication process is bound to face all types of collision and exchange between different cultures exist, and this is communication between the two common cultural barriers. Now English developed into an international language, but because of the
8、 difference between the national culture and language environment, especially restricted life and customs of different ideas, requiring translators to deal with business activities in a comprehensive consideration of the above difference, combined with the actual situation, the cultural differences
9、at the heart of the position to be considered. In the translation process not only to the cultural identity of the nation were concerned, but also concerned about the semantics itself, by mastering the corresponding translation techniques to achieve smooth translation of cultural information as the
10、basis. Business English itself involved in a wide range of expertise, style, language use way too many different stylistic focus itself there are also differences.

12、ountries as reflected in different languages and cultures, based on respect for language and culture on the realization conversion valid information, thus contributing to the smooth implementation of the behavior of business contacts.

13、be translated into the Seven-up. “Propaganda” in Chinese vocabulary as neutral presence, appraise distinction itself does not exist, but in business English, will have to distinguish between different locales, if the word translated directly to its propaganda, it will lead to the other side of misun
14、derstanding, this is due to the propaganda often contain derogatory tendency, the main meaning is “spoofed” or persuasive advocacy. Another example is the Nike sports series in the United States as one of the brand, in most Westerners to understand the meaning of the Nike lucky, victory in the Chine
15、se translation of the word pronunciation if directly based translation occurs “Nai Ji” the results, which translate the results will not make people aware of the advantageous features of the brand has occasionally dont know the meaning of the case even occur, so that the two cultures can communicate
16、 effectively starting level, you can translate the word as“Nike”, which is due to wear Nike and strong intention will have meaning, it will show the advantages famous brand.

19、rlying psychological activities common behavioral norms of a society, its social workers constraint behavior. For example, the English word bourgeois, Western society people the impression that the middle finger is being well-educated, decent jobs and higher income middle class, while in Chinese soc
20、iety, it means it is against the exploitation of working people live in assets classes and strata, ironically pejorative meaning; and as “force majeure (force majeure) , ” the word in the different legal traditions, the connotation and denotation of the word are different and resilient, in common la
21、w generally refers to a natural disasters or accidents caused by the war, but in the mainland legal system also includes socio-economic situation or due to changes in national policies arising from unforeseen risk factors. This means that in countries with different legal systems and to reach a cont
22、ract agreement and the use of “force majeure” this term, the translator should explain the meaning of “force majeure”, and clearly define the scope of this term covere. 2. Impact way of thinking for business English translation Way of thinking is the communication bridge between culture and language
23、. People in different cultures approach things angles, in different ways, which is not the same way of thinking. Caused by a different way of thinking precisely because language differences.

24、usiness English often use some rather vague connotation nouns, adverbs and adjectives like. Meaning of such words in the abstract, generalization, general, meaning the broader category; while Chinese are more inclined to use more specific within the meaning of the generic table. For example: The fin
25、ancing of the sale often involves bills of exchange and documentary credits. Loans receipts and expenditures, commodity trading is reflected in the draft or documentary credit. In the course of the loan payment in business English, it will be directly related to the documentary credit operations. Th
26、us, when the term of the above examples financing translated into Chinese, can not simply be translated into financing should be more specific, translated into “Loan payment situation.” Another example: No wonder the multinational corporations have been growing fantastically and now dominate many se
27、ctions ofthe international market no wonder multinationals has been developing at an alarming rate and control many areas of international markets. 3. Effect of customs and traditions of business English translation Different regions have a particular tradition fashion, manners, habits, and these ar
28、e the people should abide by the decision of behavioral patterns or norms. Western tendency to clear and direct communication, clear and concise when speaking. Therefore, do business English translation should be to ensure that the translation reflect polite, convey the same functionality as the ori
29、ginal. For example, Business English You, Chinese can be translated as, “You, your side” and expressed honorific vocabulary. In addition, for the same color, at customs different backgrounds, will produce a different understanding. For example, on behalf of melancholy blue in English, but in Chinese
30、 and depression does not have any contact. World-renowned brand Bluebird cars in English with Blue Bird as a car trademark. blue bird belongs to a bluebird in North America, its cultural connotation is happy and peaceful. Therefore, in the English-speaking countries, Blue Bird brand cars, representi
31、ng more sustenance for the family to send good wishes of happiness. If translated into sad bird car, on the connotation of the original expression of the vastly different. In particular cultural background, many cases can not literal. For example, blue blood intended for the aristocratic, distinguis
32、hed identity, can not be literally translated as blue blood. . Features of Business English language and the corresponding translation skills 1.

34、ist with synonyms overlapping manner to ensure that the words that have the rigor and accuracy.For example, losses and damage translated as “lost.” Because of business English vocabulary has such characteristics in determining the proper translation should pay attention to the wording of rigor and a
35、ccuracy, usually meaning of the word which is closely linked to the context of the language and culture and so, That different contexts will have different lexical meaning, which determines the accuracy of the translation should pay attention to word choice and rigor, as with acquaint instead be fam
