我对商务英语专业的认识

商务英语专业导论课程作业 题目:我对商务英语专业的认识年级与班级 姓名与学号 日期与时间

目录(一)内容提要 (二)关键字 (三)内容 一、商务英语的内涵 二、商务英语的特点 三、商务英语的发展现状 四、商务英语的前景 五、商务英语的培养目标(四)结语 (五)参考文献

(一)内容提要 随着我国对外贸易的迅猛发展,国内企业国际化程度迅速提高;与之相适应,培养具备全球化经营能力和具备国际商务英语沟通能力的人才,已被教育部门提上议事日程。截至2009年,教育部已批准7所高校设立商务英语本科专业,有超过700多所院校设立了英语专业商务英语方向。在中国,商务英语证书被各类涉外企业、部门、组织或机构用来作为招收职员时英语能力的证明;同时也是商务工作人员或英语学习者检验、提高自己英语水平的方式;对于即将进入职场的在校学生或已工作的青年来说,它是就业、求职的重要砝码,因此,商务英语证书被称为--商务求职的通行证,本文试从当前商务英语的现状谈谈自己的看法。 (二)关键字 商务英语内涵特点发展现状发展方向培养目标 (三)内容 一.商务英语专业内涵 商务英语的概念有着非常丰富的内涵,很长一段时间以来商务英语实际上被误用了。很多人认为商务英语就是综合英语加一些商务知识和技能,对概念如此理解是不准确的。商务英语包含5个层面:其一是英语培训,这是最基础也是最容易理解的一个层面。大部分院校在这个层面做的都比较好。其二是“特殊商务技能”,这个层面包括商务会议、商务谈判、商务计划、信函、报告的撰写等日常商务应用技能。此外,还要对一些特别的专业词汇进行专门的学习和训练。其三是掌握必要的跨学科知识,包括金融、财政、法学、贸易等等。其四是需要对目的语国家的文化和价值观的认同和提升,包括跟同事、客户、上下级、商务伙伴等等的沟通能力,对对方的国家和相关背景有深刻、全面的了解。其五,是要求具备较高的人文素养。不仅要掌握社会学、心理学等知识,还应具备文学、艺术、历史等文化修养。有了“商务”这层意义,它就不再是一个单纯的英语学习范畴。随着我国吸纳外资大国地位的确立与对外投资的迅猛发展,我国企业国际化程度迅速提高;而与之相协调,培养具备全球化经营能力、适应多国文化与具备国际商务英语沟通能力的人才就被提到日程上来。与TOEFL、GRE、GMAT以及我国目前举行的大学英语四、六级考试不同,商务英语考试特别注重考生运用英语在商务环境中进行交际的能力。因此商务英语证书在全球商业界得到广泛的认可,在中国各涉外经济部门以及在华投资的跨国公司中更是倍受青睐。目前我国已有数百家外资企业把商务英语证书作为衡量应聘人员英语水平的唯一标准。随着外资企业的不断增多,越来越多的中国人开始在外企里工作。虽然工作性质,工作场地有所不同,但是他们都会遇到同样的问题,就是如何从事涉外的经济贸易活动,如何在外商经营的企业里占有一席之地。语言差异无疑是这些人所遇到的最大的障碍,在我们熟知的生活英语、学术英语之外,商务英语是现代外资企业中最重要的交流工具。 二.商务英语的特点 英国商务英语专家Nick Bridger曾指出:商务英语包括语言知识、交际技能、专业知识、管理技能和文化意识等核心内容。由此可见,商务英语既有普通英语语言的共同特点,又带有浓浓的“商务“特色。它是建立在普通英语和词汇的基础上,结合特定的商务活动和环境,其所承载的是商务理论和商务实践两方面的信息,因此商务英语在言语使用上有其特有的特征,这也就要求商务英语人员在学习和积累知识时要注重基础英语知识和专业商务英语。

Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly(肚子) or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really kn ow their business do not follow other people’s rule.They make their own rules. Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar(奇特的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easy to work in that way. Now the very same thing is true to literature(文学). And the question, "How shall I begin?" only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is,

商务英语专业剖析报告

专业剖析报告商务英语专业 柳州城市职业学院外语与旅游系 2011-10-24

目录 一、专业概况 (3) 二、专业培养定位 (3) (一)专业培养目标 (3) (二)目标岗位群 (3) (三)人才培养规格 (3) 三、专业建设情况 (4) (一)课程体系构建 (4) (二)专业实践教学体系 (7) (三)教学改革 (8) (四)师资队伍建设 (10) (五)实训室建设 (11) (六)课程资源建设 (12) (七)学生就业情况 (12) 四、专业特色 (12) 五、存在问题 (13) 六、发展思路 (13)

一、专业概况 中国加入WTO后,大量的中小企业拥有了进出口经营许可权,国内外企业之间商务活动日趋频繁,外向型经济的发展趋势导致对商务人才的需求增加,同时也对商务人才的能力和素质提出了更高的要求。对外经济的发展,需要大量对既懂外贸、又懂英语的应用型专门人才。在这样的背景下,柳州城市职业学院于2007年开设了商务英语专业,至今已经招收4届学生共248人,目前在校生09级30人,10级29人,11级学生18人。 二、专业培养定位 专业教师调查和走访柳州、广州、深圳等地的外多家涉外企业,和行业专家座谈,如:柳钢进出口贸易公司、广西柳州外运有限责任公司、广州益德电热制品有限公司、广州赛时公司等。通过行业调查和与行业专家的座谈,我们得出了以下结论:1. 市场需要大量的既懂英语,又懂国际商务的人才。广州、深圳、以及广西钦州防城港地区,有数以千计的中小型涉外企业,虽然每个公司规模不大,但由于这类企业数量庞大,可以容纳大量的商务英语专业毕业生就业。2. 商务英语专业应该是一个宽口径的专业。由于涉外企业业务范围不一致,毕业生应该在培养英语能力的同时,应打好专业基础,这样才能适应不同企业的需求。 (一)专业培养目标 商务英语专业的人才培养目标定位为:具备良好的职业道德修养、敬业精神和社会适应能力;了解国际商务活动的政策方针和相关法律法规;掌握国际商务的基本知识理论,熟悉国际商务活动的操作流程及规范;具备较强的英语沟通技能,能熟练应用英语完成国际商务活动;能在对外经贸部门及涉外企事业单位从事外贸业务,涉外文秘等商务工作的应用型、复合型人才。 按照这个定位,学生具有语言应用技能、实用商务应用技能,能适应现代社会发展需要。本专业培养规格适应社会需求及学生就业,学生能掌握必需的服务外向型经济发展需要的知识与技能,培养规格准确、实用。 (二)目标岗位群 (1)中小型外经贸企业或有进出口经营权的企业担任外贸业务员、跟单员、单证员或各类业务助理; (2)各类企业行政助理、市场营销及其他管理人员。 (三)人才培养规格

商务英语的特点 词汇、句子 二、商务英语的特点 商务英语属于特殊用途英语(ESP)的一种,是英语语言体系中的一个分支,以普通英语为基础,它不但具有普通英语的语言学特征,而且又是商务知识和普通英语的综合体。即它基于英语的基本语法、句法结构和词汇,但在专业词汇、句式结构等方面又具有其自身的特点,只有全面把握商务英语的特点,才能更为全面和深入地理解商务英语。本文以下内容拟对商务英语的词汇和句式结构的特点作初步分析。 (一)词汇特点 1.专门术语及缩略词的大量使用。 专业术语具有国际通用性,其意义精确、单一、无歧义,且不带有个人感情色彩,一般不需要借助上下文来理解。商务英语是属于商务领域中的一种应用语言,其语言应用的显着特点之一就是专业性强,词汇及内容与专业密切相关,承载着丰富的商务理论和商务实践方面的信息。 例如:用来反映海洋运输货物保险险别主要包括平安险(Free from Particular Average)、水渍险(With Particular Average)和一切险(All Risks)。这些都是商务英语中特有的应用表达,每种险别都有行内明确规定了的责任及除外责任。 除了专业性强外,商务活动的频繁开展使得商务英语中产生了一些约定俗成的专业术语缩略词,对于这些术语和概念,从事国际商务活动的人们都应该熟悉,并将随着商务交往的频繁而日益增加。 如:商谈价格时涉及到价格术语(terms of price),其中最常见的有FOB(free on board,离岸价),CIF(cost,insurance and freight,到岸价),CFR(cost and freight,成本加运费价)。 又如:在涉及到付款条件(terms of payment),也有我们常见到的许多以缩略词形式出现的方式,如M/T(mail transfer信汇)、T/T(telegra phic transfer电汇)、D/D(demand draft票汇)、D/P(documents against payment,付款交单)、D/A(documents against acceptance,承兑交单)、L/C(letter of credit信用证)等。 2.商务英语用词强调正式规范性。商务英语用词明白易懂、正式规范、简短达意、语言平实。用词方面多以意义相同或详尽的书面词语代替基本词汇和口语词汇,保证所用词语具有国际通用性但又不能过于非正式。这种正式词语常见于各类商务文书,以示庄重和严肃,同时避免不必要的重复,使意义更加清楚、简明。 3. 如使用concur代替come together、用terminate或都expiry代替end、用prior to或者previous to代替before、用in view of代替because of用certify代替prove。在介词方面,商务英语往往使用以繁复的介词短语来代替简单的介词和连词,如:用in the nature of代替like;用along the lines of代替like;用for the purpose of 代替for;用in the case of替代if;用on the ground that替代since/because;用with reference to/with regard to替代about等。 4. 3.普通词汇,独特行业词义。 5. 商务英语具有独特的行业特点,许多日常使用的普通词汇在商务英语中有其特殊的含义,只有了解这些词的专业意义和内涵才能应用自如。 6. 以人们熟识的英语单词offer,advice,cover为例,理解它们在商务英语中所被赋予的新的特殊的含义。

商务英语特点及语言特色

商务英语的特点及翻译(一) 简介:商务英语的特点及其翻译[摘要]商务英语传达商务理论和实务等信息,其词汇专业性极强,语体规范正式,语句简洁明快,多社交性套语。商务英语翻译应遵守“忠实、准确、统一”三原则,商务活动参与者应具备较... 据环球博思论文网https://www.wendangku.net/doc/65169863.html,讯:商务英语的翻译商务英语是我国涉外经济活动中的主要交际语言,商务英语翻译在这一活动中起桥梁作用,翻译质量倍受关注。商务英语是专门用途英语的一个分支,与普通英语没有本质区别,但商务英语又具有其特定的“商务”特色。商务英语涉及到营销学、经济学、金融学、会计学和管理学等许多边缘学科知识,商务活动涉及到对外贸易、技术引进、招商引资、商务谈判、贸易合同、国际支付与结算与涉外保险等范围,因此有必要研究商务英语本身的特点及其翻译,从而能够在各个领域准确规范运用。 作为专门用途英语的商务英语具有与普通英语不同的特点,有其独特的特点。在使用上有其显著特色,主要表现在文体、语言和文化意识方面。 一商务英语引言 (一)商务英语文体风格 商务文体是随着商品生产及贸易的发展而形成的一种文体形式。商务英语文体不以语言的艺术美为其追求的目标,而是讲求逻辑的清晰和条理性、思维的准确严密以及结构的严谨性。风格朴实,明白易懂。商务信函一般风格朴实,明白易懂,淡于修饰,很少使用比喻、拟人、夸张等修辞手段,目的是提高实效性。商务英语避免使用陈旧笼统的商业术语或套语,而用简明的现代英语来表达。如不说“We are in receipt of?”,而用“We have received?” ;不说“Express myheArtfelt gratitude to you for?” ,而用“Thank you for?”。商务英语在陈述事物往往具体、明确,绝不含糊其辞。如商务英语不说“We wish to confirm our telex dispatched yesterday。”而要说“We confirm our telex of July 2nd,2000。”因为前者笼统含糊,后者清晰明了。语句简洁明快,逻辑严密简洁明快主要表现在商务信函中多使用简洁句、简短并列句和简短复合句。例如:We are delighted to receive your letter of November 18 asking whether we can supply you with art. No. 6120。(很高兴收到你方11月28日来函询问我方可否供应6120货号产品)。措辞礼貌,礼貌是国际商务英语应用文中非常重要的语言特点。汉语的商务用语有时缺少必要的客气,常见的礼貌用语往往只是一个“请”字。商务英语则比较讲究客套,随处可见礼貌的客套。例如,汉语中仅有的一个请字,商务英语中要用“We wouldappreciate”“It wou ld be appreciated”,“We would be glad to?”之类的结构来表达。因此汉英翻译时切忌照原文字面硬译,添加常用礼貌客套结构,注意措辞婉转。商务英语的逻辑严密性主要体现在商务合同等法律文件多用长句、复合句、并列复合句等法律公文常用句式以及分隔现象、介词(短语)、插入语、倒装句、被动语态(过去分词)等特殊句型。例如:If Egyptian buyers insist on concluding business direct with Party A,Party A may conclude business with such Egyptian buyers who come to visit China or attend the Chinese Export Commodity Fairat prices not lower than those quoted toParty B.(如果埃及客户坚持要与甲方成交,甲方也可和他们直接达成交易,但交易对象仅限于来访中国或参加中国商品交易会的客户,并且价格不能低于报给乙方的报价。)
