2022年法律翻译常见问题滥用标点.docx

法律翻译常见征询题：滥用标点 1. 女职工有权向当地劳动部门提出申诉受理申诉的部门应当作出决定 A woman employee has the right to appeal (申诉) to the local labor department, which shall make a decision. (逗号不能删除) 2. 企业和政府有关部门的领导干部，因工作过失给企业和国家造成较大损失的，由政府主管部门或有关上级机关给予行政处分 原译文：Leading cadres of enterprises and governmental departments concerned, who have caused the enterprises and the state big losses due to work faults, shall be disciplined by the competent government agency or its superior agency. 修正提示：cause sb. sth. 构造不当；定语从句的逗号使用不当。

修正为：Leading cadres of enterprises and governmental departments concerned who have caused big losses to the profit-seeking enterprises and the state owing to their negligence in work shall be disciplined by the competent government agency or its superior agency. 修正说明：(1) cause sb. sth. 构造应当改为cause sth. to sb.构造 (2) 去掉定语从句的逗号，由于：限制性定语从句起明确的限定作用，在句中不可缺少，否那么会阻碍句子的含义非限制性定语从句通常起补充说明作用，删除后一般也不阻碍句子的主要思想；有时相当于一个分句；修饰具有唯一性的名词时，要用非限制性定语从句例如： When he was 18, he went to a technical school in London, which was the largest city he had ever seen. (逗号不能删除) Then he met Mary, who (and she) invited him to a party. (逗号不能删除) 。
