商务英语文体学分析

论文摘要

伴随着国际化的进程,中国与国外的交流也变得日益频繁。在对外联系的进程中,商务英语在专业领域以及日常生活中被广泛应用。商务英语有其特有的特点,它以平实,清晰和明确不易产生歧义的语言讲所要表达的内容表现出来.本文利用文体学的理论对商务英语信函进行了分析。本文首先对文体学理论进行了说明,然后从语言因素和非语言因素两个方面对商务英语信函的风格的影响进行了分析,语言方面包括对词汇,句法,和段落的分析。非语言方面包括主观因素和客观因素两个方面。本文在揭示商务英语语言特点的同时,试图从非语言因素与语言风格的关系方面对商务英语信函进行了分析,并希望对商务英语信函的学习和教学做出微薄的贡献。
