常用商务英语词汇解释
在商务英语中，有一些专业词汇总是会被错译。接下来我为大家整理了常用商务英语词汇解释，希望对你有帮助哦!
It is not surprising, then, that the world saw a return to a floating
exchange rate system. Central banks were no longer required to support
their own currencies.
Floating policy is of great importance for export trade; it is, in
fact, a convenient method of insuring goodsswheresa number of similar
export transactions are intended, e.g.swheresthe insured has to supply
an overseas importer under an exclusive sales agreement or maintains
sales representatives or subsidiary companies abroad.
译文：
在这种情况下，世界各国又恢复浮动汇率就不足为奇了。各国中央银行也就无须维持本币的汇价了。
统保单对出口贸易至关重要。它实际上是货物保险中的一种便利的办法，特别适合于分不同的时间出口的一批类似货物，如，当被保险方根据独家代理协议书向国外的进口方供货，或在国外委任了销售代表，设立分支机构时用之。
注解：
floating在上述两个句中的意思完全不一样，floating exchange rate意为“浮动汇率”，即可自由浮动，完全受市场力量决定的汇率制度。而floating policy则指用以承保多批次货运的一种持续性长期保险凭证，常译为“统保单”。
We'd like to inform you that our counter sample will be sent to you
by DHL by the end of this week and please confirm it ASAP so that we
can start our mass production.
Payment will be made by 100% confirmed, irrevocable Letter of
Credit available by sight draft。
译文：
很高兴通知您，我们的回样将于本周末用特快专递给您，请尽快确认，以便我们开始大批生产。
付款方式为1O0%即期，保兑，不可撤消信用证。
注解：
confirmed一词在这两句话的意思也不一样。在第一个句子中，confirm的意思是“确认”。在第二个句子中，confirmed L/C应翻译为“保兑信用证”，即指一家银行所开的由另一家银行保证兑付的一种银行信用证。
Part time barman required.Hours and salary negotiable.
This Bill of Lading is issued in a negotiable form, so it shall
constitute title to the goods and the holder, by endorsement of this B/L.
译文：
招聘兼职酒店保安，工作时间和薪水面议。
所签发的提单可为转让的，故只要在提单上背书,便确定了货物和持票人的'所有权。
注解：
在第一句话中，negotiable的意思是“可商议的”，在第二句话中的意思则是“可转让的”，“可转让提单”经过背书后即可将所有权转让给他人，值得注意的是，negotiating bank则是议付银行，即购买或贴现汇票的银行。
You may get a 5% discount if yoursgroupsis on a regular basis.
If a seller extends credit to a time draft, they have made a trade
acceptance.The seller can request that the bank finance the transaction
by buying the draft.The bank is said to discount the draft.
译文：
如果你方定期给我方下定单，你方便可得到5%的折扣。
如卖方开出的是远期汇票，以此向买方提供信用，此时就做了一笔商业汇票承兑业务，卖方可以请银行买下商业承兑汇票，银行用这个办法对出口商融资，也就是说，银行对该汇票贴现了。
注解：
discount在这两句话中的意思一个是折扣，另一个是贴现。折扣是指商品在原价的基础上按百分比降价，贴现则是指未到期的票据向银行融资，银行扣取自买进日至到期日的利息，并收取一定的手续费后，将余下的票面金额付给持票人。
Our products have been endorsed by the National Quality Inspection
Association.
Draft must be accompanied by full set original on board marine Bill
off Lading made out to order，endorsed in blank，marked freight prepaid.
译文：
我们的产品为全国质量检查协会的推荐产品。
汇票必须附有全套印有“货物收讫”字样的正本海运提单，凭指示、空白背书，并写明“运费已付”。
注解：
在第一个句子中，“推荐”是指用过某种产品后感到满意，并通过媒体介绍给公众。而第二句中的“空白背书明是指背书人(endorser)只在票据背面签上自己的名字，而不注明特定的被背书人(endorsee)。

综合辅导：学做Presentation(四、五)
图表就像是“数字地图”，可以让看的人一目了然。成功的演说者应该就这些数字、图表加以诠释，让听众即刻掌握这些数字之间的关系。
The statistics I've just given show that Taiwan is definitely a youth-oriented market, and will remain so for another ten years. The companies that successfully target this segment have higher sales and larger market shares year in and year out. I've prepared a few diagrams showing which companies dominate the market, and the types of advertising they use to keep their sales.
我刚才给各位的统计数字说明台湾的确是一个以年轻人为导向的市场，而且未来十年之内仍然会继续是这种状况。因此看准了并打进这个市场区间的企业，每年就能有较高的业绩和市场占有率。我另外还准备了一些图来说明是哪几家公司主宰了目前的市场，以及这些公司运用哪些 广告 来维持他们的业绩。
This bar chart shows the top four companies and their market shares: the American Jonny&Jammy Company leads the pack with 29%, followed by the domestic firm, V08, at 21%. The Japanese MARUMI is next with 17%, and the French company, La-Rose, is last with 12%. The next chart, a pie graph, shows a breakdown of their advertising: the largest wedge at 62% represents TV commercials; a quarter of their budget goes to magazine and newspaper ads, and the remainder is for purchasing advertising and posters placed in shops where their products are sold.
从这个条形图表可以看出四家最大的公司以及他们的市场占有率。美国的Jonny&Jammy公司以百分之二十九领先群雄，其次是本地的厂家V08，拥有百分之二十一的市场占有率;再下来是日本的MARUMI，拥有百分之十七;法国的La-Rose居末，占了百分之十二的市场。第二个图表是个圆形百分比图，显示这几家公司的各类广告比重。比率最大的那个扇形是电视广告，占百分之六十二;报刊杂志占了百分之二十五，其余的则是促销广告和海报等贴在产品销售卖场的广告。
Notes：
1. youth-oriented 以年轻人为导向的
youth是"青少年人"的意思。基本上各年龄层的泛称有：children(小孩)、teenagers(青少年)、adults(成年人)和the elderly(老年人)。
I suggest youth-oriented commercials when we introduce the new cereal.
我建议推出新的麦片时，打以青少年为导向的电视广告。
2. year in and year out 每年;年复一年
In 和out在这里是指"出"、"入"，也就是"来"、"去"的意思。"年来年又去"，给人一种连续不断的感觉，有强调的意思。其实它就是指 every year、year after year。
Year in and year out, Ven-Ven is a leader in creative advertising.
年复一年，文文公司仍是创意广告的龙头。
3. lead the pack 领先群雄
Pack 常用的意思是"包;捆"，如：a pack of cigarettes(一包香烟);但在这里是指"一群(人)"。整个词组原来是说有一群人在赛跑，其中一人超越了 其它 竞赛对手，居于领先地位。现在只要是形容某人在团体中表现最好，就可以用这个词组。
Because she studied hard, she led the pack in the race to get into a good university.
她读书很用功，因此考试成绩比其它人好，进了好大学。
句型 总结
● 图表的说法与用途
1. What we have here is a bar chart showing...
2. Our monthly sales are shown on this X/Y graph.
3. These three pie graphs each present...
4. The next diagram illustrates...
基本的图表通常有chart、graph 和 diagram。这三个词在意义上原本有细微的差异，但现已互相通用了。图表的种类有很多，最常使用的几种是 bar chart条形图，line chart曲线图(又称 X/Y graph，X/Y坐标图)，以及 pie graph圆形百分比图。条形图使人容易看出单一方面的数目，譬如业绩;圆形百分比图则可以看出每一方面占整体的比率。X/Y坐标图能让人清楚地看出两个因素之间的关系，譬如"每月"的"业绩"。每提到一个图表时，要先说出该图表的种类或名称。
● 指出图表某部份
1. The longest bar is...
2. This group of thin wedges shows...
3. The lowest point on the graph is…
解释图表内容时，将每个部份所代表的数字或比率说出来即可。但解释百分比图时，也可加入每个项目彼此或与整体之间的关系，譬如 the largest(最多的……)及 the remainder(其余的……)。另外，在圆形百分比图中的每一部分都可以称为 wedge(扇形)或 slice(片)，如 "the smallest wedge / slice shows..."。至于X/Y坐标图就比较复杂，并行线称为 X axis(X轴)，垂直线称为 Y axis(Y轴)，图上的任何 (X，Y)坐标都是一个 point(一点)。通常要指出曲线上某一点时，最好能明确地指出来，不然就要把X与Y轴所代表的事物明白讲清楚。
● 说明图表的意义
1. This bar chart shows the growth in our sales.
2. Here is a graph showing the growth in our sales.
3. Each bar on the chart represents the growth in our sales.
4. The wedges on this pie graph illustrate the growth in our sales.
5. This diagram focuses on the growth in our sales.
说明图表的意义要简单明了，一句话就能让听众明白。例如文中提到条形图时，立刻表明这张图分别代表the top four companies 和 their market shares(这些称为图表的 factor(s));而看到圆形百分比图时，就表示这张图 "shows a breakdown of their advertising..."。注意，表示整个图所代表的意义用动词 show，而表示图中各部分的要用 represent。
Daphne提供观众所需的背景数据后，便进入presentation的核心阶段。她必须以专业者的眼光指出天籁在美国成功的销售 经验 与在台湾所需的行销企划之间所存在的重要差异。
I know EarthSound has used all of these advertising methods successfully in the United States, and you may feel that what works in the States will work in Taiwan. This is definitely not the case. There are important differences between EarthSound's advertising and the advertising of successful companies in Taiwan.
我知道贵公司在美国已经非常成功地运用这几种广告，而且，各位也许会认为，这些广告在美国有效，在台湾应该也一样。其实不然，贵公司的广告与刚才我提到的几家在台湾成功的公司所做的广告有很大的不同。
EarthSound's slogan is, "EarthSound - the healthy alternative for you and the environment," while V08's slogan is, "Thank you, V08, for making me beautiful." Why the difference? My calculations show that 85% of the American public believes they can do something to help the environment, but only 30% of Taiwan's people feel the same. America's politicians and its media have made people aware of this issue. This has created a market for EarthSound's products. If Taiwan's politicians and media would do the same, then the people of Taiwan would be ready for EarthSound's advertising. This hasn't happened yet.
天籁的 口号 是："天籁--你和环境的健康选择"，V08的口号是："V08，谢谢你把我变得美丽"。为什么会有这样的差异呢?我的统计显示有85%的美国大众相信他们能做些有助于环境的事，但只有30%的台湾人会这么想。美国的政客和媒体已让大众意识到环境的问题，这就为天籁的产品创造了市场。如果台湾的政客和媒体也能做一样的事，那台湾人才会接受天籁的广告，但这种情况还没有出现。
