    APPENDIX


    PART I: INTRODUCTION
    I. Rationale of the study
    Nowadays, with the development of our society as well as other
    countries in the world, economic and trade sector has become one
    indispensables field in the economy in general, development of the countries in
    particular, including our Vietnam. Thanks to the open-door policy and the
    renovation process, Vietnam is currently a developing country with many
    wonderful changes and processes in various fields such as economy, politics,
    culture and society, science and technology. The Party, Government and all
    Vietnamese are constantly trying the best to make Vietnam rub shoulders with
    powerful countries in five continents.
    Vietnam is on the way of international economic integration. In detail,
    many enterprises, companies, factories have been established. In addition, there
    have appeared here many representative offices of foreign companies. We have
    established the economic and trade relations with a lot of countries. Successful
    2
    economic and trade cooperation requires many factors, of which mutual
    understanding is the most importance. Therefore, the translation of economic
    and trade documents plays an important role and is of the greatest concern.
    However, the translation from English into Vietnamese or vice versa is a big
    challenge, because of the differences between English and Vietnamese languages
    and culture. Especially, in economic and trade field, the translation of its
    documents in general and terminology in particular is not a simple task because of
    their fully specific terminology.
    Moreover, economic and trade cooperation among different countries in
    the world is increasing, to become a good translator is not only the interest of
    many people but mine. However, I often meet many difficulties as well as
    challenges in translation process because of the linguistic differences b etween
    the two language systems and the most noticeable difficulty is the problem of
    how to deal with non-equivalence and equivalence economic and trade
    terminology.
    Therefore, with the hope of helping translators, as well as myself
    particularly, students who have just graduated begin to step out the university
    environment and have orientation to become future translators in economic and
    trade field, I implement this study to study on the translation of economic and
    trade terminology from English into Vietnamese. Hopefully, it can help
    translators enhance their translation skills after reading.
    II. Aims of the study
    The study on the translation of basic economic and trade terminology
    aims to figure out an overview on translation strategies and procedures which
    are commonly employed in translation of economic and trade terminology.
    In detail, my Graduation Paper is aimed at:
    3
     Reviewing the theoretical issues relating to translation, translation
    methods, translation equivalence and terminology , its definition and main
    characteristics.
     Collecting and presenting basic English terminology in economic and
    trade sector.
     Providing their Vietnamese equivalences or expressions.
     Finding out the translation strategies and procedures applied in the
    translation of economic and trade terminology from English into Vietnamese.
     Providing students major in the subject, translators and those who may
    concern a draft and short reference of basis English terminology in economics
    and trade and their corresponding Vietnamese meanings.
    Hopefully, the study will provide readers overall comprehension about the
    information of economic and trade terminology, especially for future translators
    who are willing to become good translators in economic and trade field.
    III. Scope of the study
    Terminology is various in different fields such as commerce and business,
    market, economic laws, insurance, investment, shares and securities, etc
    However, it is impossible for me to carry out study on them, due to limitation of
    time and my knowledge. In my study and work process, recognizing that
    economic and trade terminology plays an important role in Business
    Management and Foreign Trade field, especially in the renovation period of our
    country. Therefore, the major aspects of the investigation are translation and
    popular translation strategies being applied in economic and trade terminology
    from English into Vietnamese.

    IV. Methods of the study

    trade terminologies from English into Vietnamese, the quantitative method is
    applied. I have implemented this study with the support source s from economic
    and trade books and dictionaries, internet and other references.
    Then, from the collected data I will analyze their features to find the
    suitable procedures which are used to translate from English into Vietnamese.
