法律翻译中常见的词义变换

在正常的情况下,并在将原文翻译成译文时,译者只需按照原文中各个词的词典含义就能准确而地道地把原文翻译成译文。然而,在一些特殊情况下,尽管按照词典含义意思对等地翻译,但在译文是其母语的人看来,这种译文总会让人觉得别扭,词的表达总是很不妥当。在这种情况下,译者就必须按照译文的表达习惯,改变词典含义,用地道的译文用词来表达原文作者的真正含义。

​1 Each Party shall have the right to change its legal or authorized representative and shall promptly notify the other Party of such change and the name, position and nationality of its new legal or authorized representative.

参考译文:双方有权撤换其各自的法定代表人或授权代表,并应将新法定代表人或授权代表的姓名、职位和国籍及时通知另一方。

解释:在原文中的“change”的原意为“变化”,但为了符合中文的表达习惯,将它翻译成“撤换”。

2、The Company may establish branch offices inside China and overseas with the consent of the Board an d approval from the relevant governmental authorities.

参考译文: 合营公司经董事会决议并经有关政府机关批准可在国内外成立分支机构。

解释: 原文中“consent”的愿意为“同意”, 但为了中文法律语言的表达习惯, 在译文中将其翻译为“决议”。

3、The purpose of the joint venture shall be to utilize the combined technological, management, operational and marketing strengths of the Parties within the approved scope of business of the Company to achieve good economic results and a return on investment satisfactory to the Parties.

参考译文:合营公司的宗旨是结合双方在技术、管理、运营以及营销方面的优势,在合营公司经批准的经营范围内开展业务,以取得良好的经济效益以及令双方满意的投资回报。

解释:原文中的“strength”的愿意为“实力,力量”,但在译文中,为了符合中文表达习惯的需要,它被改翻译为“优势”。

4、Subject to Article 5.4(c) below, in the event that a Party fails to make its capital contribution, in whole or in part, in accordance with the provisions of this Contract, such Party shall be liable to pay simple interest to the Company at a rate equal to [default interest rate] per annum on the unpaid amount from the time due until the time the full outstanding amount including penalty interest is paid to and received by the Company.

参考译文:在遵循以下第5.4(c)条规定的前提下,如果一方未依照本合同的条款全额或部分出资,则该方应就欠缴的出资额按年利率[]的单利向合营公司支付罚息,计息期为该笔出资的应缴日期至该笔出资及罚息全额支付,并由合营公司收到之日。

解释:原文中的“unpaid”一词的愿意是“未支付”,但在译文中被按照中文法律语言的习惯翻译成了“欠缴”。

5、When a Party has made all or any part of its contribution to the registered capital of the Company, a Chinese registered accountant appointed by the Board shall verify such contribution and issue a capital contribution verification report in the form required under Applicable Laws.

参考译文:一方向合营公司部分或全部出资后,由董事会聘请的中国注册会计师验资并按照相关法律要求的形式出具验资报告。

解释:原文中的“appointed”一词在译文中被按照中文的表达习惯改翻译为“聘请”。

6、Neither Party shall have any liability to the Company except to the extent of its agreed capital contributions. The Company shall be liable to its creditors to the extent of its assets.

参考译文:任何一方仅以其出资额为限对合营公司承担责任。合营公司应以其资产对其债权人承担责任。

解释:原文中的“except to the extent of its agreed capital contributions”和“to the extent of its assets”在句子后面,但在译文中,它们的对应中文翻译却在句子中间。
