顺序法在商务合同长句上的翻译

19-11-16 返回列表

　　所谓顺序法就是按照原文的顺序进行翻译。如果原文所陈述的一连串的动作基本上 按发生的时间先后安排或原文的内容按逻辑关系排列时，此类长句与汉语的表达方式比 较一致，可按原文的顺序译出。

　　【例1】In the event that the Company's operations are reduced substantially from the scale of operation originally anticipated by the parties, or the Company experience substantial and continuing losses resulting in negative retained earnings not anticipated by the Parties in the agreed Business Plan, or in any other circumstance permitted under Applicable Laws or agreed by the Parties, the Parties may agree to reduce the registered capital of the Company on a pro rata basis.
　　译文：如果合营公司的经营规模比双方原来预期的规模有大幅度缩减，或合营公司 持续遭受严重亏损，导致双方商定的业务计划中所未预期的盈余保留负数，或在任何相 关法律允许或双方一致同意的情况下，双方可以协议按原有出资比例减资。
　　分析：上述句子的逻辑关系非常清楚，即：三个假设条件，一个结论，表达顺序与 汉语一致。因此，此句按原文的顺序译出。
　　【例 2 】All profits paid by the company to Party C, all salaries and allowances paid by the company to foreign personnel, all direct expenses incurred as a result of the technology transfer and which must be paid by the company to Party C in foreign currency and all other payments that must be made by the company in foreign currency shall be made in United States Dollars or some other freely convertible currency that is mutually agreed upon.
　　译文：该公司支付给C方的利润，外来人员的工资、津贴和因技术转让而发生的应 以外币支付的直接费用，以及所有其他应以外币支付的款项，应以美元或相互同意的可 自由兑换的货币支付。

　　分析：此句的主干为 All profits，all salaries and allowances, all direct expenses and all other payments shall be made.句中作后置定语的三个过去分词短语和三个定语从句使得 整个句子结构复杂，句中套句，但却条理清楚，逻辑严密，行文流畅。由于原文的逻辑 顺序与汉语逻辑顺序基本相同，因此，有资质的翻译公司的译者可采用顺序法进行翻译。
