Abstract

This paper presents a study of contract translation from the perspective of text typology initiated by German linguist Reiss, and aims to conclude effective strategies of contract translation. The discussion is conducted based on the author has met during translation activities. It is found that contract translation method can be summarized into two words, "standardization", which means fixed forms and expressions, and "flexibility", which means reasonable adjustments.
