商务英语虽然在日常生活中不那么常见,但在国际金融领域里面是非常重要的。商务英语写作目前在生活中有越来越广泛的应用,如果你从事贸易行业或者英语职场中,就有必要了解商务英语的一些写作知识和规范。来看看这篇关于商务英语写作技巧和常见商务英语词汇的文章吧!
1.用现代商务语言去替代过时或陈旧的表达
商务邮件的目的在于传达信息或者说服对方,为了达到沟通的目的,商务写作做到简洁自然,不说空话套话,用现代商务语言去替换过时或陈旧的表达。
举个例子,对于上面提到的三个例子:
(1) Kindly furnish us with this information soon.
(2) Please find enclosed here with a copy of our new catalogue for your reference and perusal.
(3) The above-mentioned goods will be dispatched to you today.
我们可以将其替换为更为自然的说法:
(1) Please let us have this information soon.
(2) I’m pleased to enclose our new catalogue, and I hope you find it interesting.
(3) These goods will be sent to you today.
2.使用自然、口语化的方式写作
商务邮件虽然是书面体,但它与一般的书面体(比如学术论文)不同。现代商务邮件写作提倡语言自然、流畅,就像面对面的口语交谈一样。我们可以在写作中融入一些自己的想法、个性和情感。我们在日常商务邮件中可能经常会见到类似下面的句子:
(1) Appreciate if you could help to process this claim at your earliest.
(2) Kindly advise which course of action you would like to take and we will proceed accordingly.
(3) Could I please request your kind assistance in filling out the below survey for us.
这样的句子过于正式,读起来也很费解。这实际上会给读者造成距离感,影响商务沟通的效果,它们可以改为更加自然的说法:
(1) Please process this claim soon.
(2) Please let us know what you would like to do.
(3) I hope you will take a few minutes to complete this survey for us.
