Which points should we pay attention to in the translation of this document? COMBINED TRANSPORT BILL OF LADING 3 II. Skill in focus 词的省略 　　由于汉英两种语言表达方式不尽相同，如果字字对译，往往会产生累赘生硬的译文，又称“翻译腔”。为了使译文简洁流畅，符合译语的表达习惯，必须去掉原文中多余的没有必要翻译的词语。但词的省略不同于漏译，必须在原文意思充分传达的前提下，减词不减意。 一、汉译英的减词技巧 1．省去汉语原文中表示范畴概念的名词，如：问题、状态、水平、情况、工作等。 　　（1）完成产品定价、发行与销售工作。 　　 译文：Complete pricing, launching and marketing of products. 　　（2）但是，任何贷款、资金或融资的短缺不应被视作超出某方合理控制范围。 　　 译文：However, any shortage of credit, capital or finance shall not be regarded as an event beyond a Party’s reasonable control. 2．省去原文中语义重复的部分 　 这台笔记本电脑真是物美价廉。 　 译文：This laptop is indeed cheap and fine. 3．省略原文中重复出现的词语 　 由于现场不能提供寄存服务，建议您不要携带笔记本电脑及贵重物品前往现场。 　 译文：No deposit service on the site. Laptops and expensive items are not encouraged. 二、英译汉的减词技巧 1．省略原文中冠词、代词、连词、介词 汉语没有冠词，代词、连词、介词的使用不如英语频繁。 （1）COMPANY declares that it is engaged in an independent business. 译文：“公司”声明其从事独立业务。 （2）You may rest assured that anything thus communicated will be kept confidential. 译文：任何有关的资料将予以保密，敬请放心。 2．省略套语 （1）We are pleased to offer as follows, subject to our final confirmation. 译文：兹报盘如下，以我方最后确认为准。 （2）It is with regret and reluctance that we have to inform you that we are not able to extend the letter of credit. 译文：非常遗憾地通知贵方我方无法将信用证延期。 4 III.
