涉外商务英语合同的语言特色体现在以下几个方面：第一部分、用词方面多用正式或法律上的用词，与口头表述不同，合同是法律性的正式书面文件，使用正式的、法律的用词是必要的。合同起草者应多加强这方面的学习。比如：1、at the request of party b, party a agrees to send technicians to assist party b to install the equipment.应乙方要求，甲方同意派遣技术人员帮助乙方安装设备。assist 较 help 正式；2、the personnel shall not to partake in any political activities in iraq.所有人员不得参加伊拉克国内的任何政治活动。partake in 较 take part in 正式；3、the employer shall render correct technical guidance to the personnel.雇主应该对有关人员给予正确技术指导。render 较 give 正式；4、party a shall repatriate the patient to china and bear the cost of his passage to guangzhou.甲方应将病人遣返中国并负责其返回广州的旅费。repatriate 较 send back 正式；5、this contract shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of china.本合同受中国法律管辖，并按中国法律解释。construe 较 explain，interpret 正式；6、the employer may object to and require the contractor to replace forthwith any of its authorized representatives who isincompetent.
