在BEC考試中有哪些比較常出現(xiàn)的詞匯及短語呢?以下是小編整理的BEC考試?荚~匯及短語,歡迎大家閱讀參考。
一、商務(wù)英語詞匯
英語詞匯多達(dá)幾十萬,并且詞語表義較為靈活,對上下文的依賴也較大。如,"board"一詞,本義為"木板",但在不同上下文中,可以表示"車"、"船"、"伙食"、"會議桌"、"委員會"等。而在商務(wù)英語中,"board"往往用來表示"董事會",如,"chairman or president of the board"(董事會主席或董事長);或者,它經(jīng)常用在FOB (Free on Board,離岸價,船上交貨價)價格術(shù)語中,意思是"船"。
在商務(wù)英語中,有著許多通過引申、轉(zhuǎn)換、添加等手段而獲得的有別于普通英語詞義的具有"新義"的"舊詞"。
例如:
literature 在普通英語中,它表示"文學(xué)";而在商務(wù)英語中,它則表示"printed matters, including leaflets, instruction, product catalogue, price list, etc. (文字宣傳資料,諸如產(chǎn)品說明書、產(chǎn)品目錄、價目表等)"。
例如:
In order to market our new product,we have printed fine literature.(為了推銷新產(chǎn)品,我們印了精美的宣傳資料。) claim 在普通英語中,它的意思是"要求,認(rèn)領(lǐng)";而在商務(wù)英語中,它則表示"demand or request for a thing considered one's due (索賠)"。
例如:
We claimed on that shipping company for the loss involved.(我們向輪船公司就有關(guān)損失提出索賠。) reference 在普通英語中,它表示"參考,查閱,提及";而在商務(wù)英語中,它的意思是"persons or firms named by a customer asking a supplier for credit, from whom the supplier can get information about the business reputation of the customer (擔(dān)保人,證明人)"。
例如 :
My reference will prove to you that I am efficient and dependable. (我的擔(dān)保人將向你證明我的工作是高效的,并且我是可信賴的。) 除了屬于英語共核部分(English common core)的詞匯以外,商務(wù)英語還有著其特別的專門詞匯。

e.g. We have a large backlog. (我們積壓的訂貨甚多。)
in-tray: tray for incoming documents (放在辦公桌上用來裝收到的文件的容器,收文籃;用于盛放將要發(fā)出去的文件的容器叫out-tray, 發(fā)文籃)

(借項通知單,指賣方通知買方更正錯誤的文件,即:通知買方,因其錯誤而要借記(增加)買方應(yīng)收賬款賬戶,向?qū)Ψ窖a(bǔ)收錢;與之相對的'是credit note(貸項通知單)。)
