题    目   On Business English Translation under the Guidence of Adaptation Theory                

Abstract

Though business English gets its appropriate treatment as an academic pursuit worldwide, business English translation does not. In the sense, business English is promoted and used as a media between businessmen of different mother tongues, then why the trouble to translate? So to get the status for business English translation as a proper academic endeavor, appropriate reasons have to be clarified. Based on Verschueren's Adaptation Theory， this thesis explores translation strategies， methods and applications of business English in international business activities， dealing with the problem of information gap between source language and target language and embodies adaptation to communicative context and dynamics of adaptability． The ultimate goal is to meet the needs of both trade parties as far as possible and is beneficial to the international business communication．

Key words:  Business English; Business English Translation;
