商務(wù)談判英語重要性
商務(wù)英語是英語的一種社會功能變體，是專門用途英語中的一個分支，是英語在商務(wù)場合中的應(yīng)用。它涉及技術(shù)引進、對外貿(mào)易、招商引資、對外勞務(wù)承包與合同、國際合同、國際金融、涉外保險、國際旅游、海外投資、國際運輸?shù)鹊龋藗儚氖逻@些活動所使用的英語統(tǒng)稱為商務(wù)英語。
商務(wù)英語源于普通英語，并以此為基礎(chǔ)，完全具有普通英語的語言學特征，但同時它又是商務(wù)知識和普通英語的綜合體，因而具有其內(nèi)在的獨特性，主要集中以下幾個方面：
1.商務(wù)英語的語言形式、詞匯、以及內(nèi)容等方面與專業(yè)知識密切相關(guān)，它承載著商務(wù)理論和商務(wù)實踐等方面的信息。
2.商務(wù)英語用詞明白易懂、正式規(guī)范、簡短達意、語言平實。用詞方面多使用常用詞，以保證所用詞語具有國際通用性，保證能為普通大眾所理解，但又不能過于口語化，即商務(wù)英語所使用的語言不能過于非正式。有些商務(wù)文書(如合同)因為具有規(guī)范、約束力等公文性質(zhì)，因此會使用一些很正式的詞語，如使用prior to 或者 previous to 而不使用before;使用supplement 而不使用 add to 等。但在介詞方面，商務(wù)英語往往使用以繁復(fù)的介詞短語來代替簡單的介詞和連詞，如：用 in the nature of 代替 like;
3.商務(wù)英語句子結(jié)構(gòu)比較復(fù)雜，句式規(guī)范，文體正式，尤其在招標文件和投資文件經(jīng)及合同中更是如此。
4.商務(wù)英語在陳述事物時往往具體、明確，絕不含糊其詞。如商務(wù)英語不就“We wish to confirm our telex dispatched yesterday”,而要說“We confirm our telex of July 2nd,2000.”因為前者籠統(tǒng)含糊，后者就清晰明了;
5.在國際商務(wù)英語應(yīng)用文特別是國際商務(wù)信函中，禮貌是其中非常重要的語言特點。

Dialogue 1:
A: So, thank you for coming, everyone. It's really a pleasure to see you all here. First of all, may i suggest you take a look at the agenda i sent you? Would you like to make any comment on that?
B: Yes, i wonder if we can begin with shipment question first. We really need to come to an agreement on that before anything else.
A: That's true, but it's also a very difficult issue. That's the reason why i put it last. I thought it might be a good idea for us to start with the points we have in common. We'll move on to the shipment issue after that.
B: All right. That sounds reasonable.
A: Well, before we go any future, I would like to say strongly how i feel that it's in both our interest to reach an agreement today.
