商務書信寫作的十大注意事項
1.切忌主客不分或模糊。
例子: Deciding to rescind the earlier estimate, our report was updated to include $40,000 for new equipment.應改為 Deciding to rescind our earlier estimate, we have updated our report to include $40,000 for new equipment. (We決定呀, 不是report.)
2.句子不要零碎。
例子: He decided not to audit the last ten contracts. Because of our previous objections about compliance. 兩個句子應該連在一起:He decided not to audit the last ten contracts because of our previous objections about compliance.
3.結構對稱,令人容易理解。
例子: The owner questioned the occupant's lease intentions and the fact that the contract had been altered with ink markings. 應改為: The owner questioned the occupant's lease intentions and ink alterations of the contract.
4.單復數不要搞亂,不然會好刺眼,看著不舒服。
例如: An authorized person must show that they have security clearance. 應改為 Authorized persons must show that they have security clearance.
5.動詞和主語要呼應。
想想這兩個句子的'分別: 1. This is one of the public-relations functions that is under-budgeted. 2. This is one of the public-relations functions, which are under-budgeted.
6.時態和語氣不要轉換太多。
看商務英語已經是苦事,不要浪費人家的精力啊。
7.標點要準確。
例如: He did not make repairs, however, he continued to monitor the equipment. 應改為: He did not make repairs; however, he continued to monitor the equipment.
8.選詞正確。
像 affect和effect,operative和operational等 等就要弄清楚才好用啦。
9.拼字正確。
有電腦拼字檢查功能后,就更加不能偷懶。
10.大小寫要注意。
除非 必要不要整個詞都大寫,除非要罵人。例如: MUST change to OS immediately. 外國人就覺得不禮貌和喝令人一樣。要強調的話,用底線,斜字,粗體就可以了。
