Rationale of study Around the world, there are an estimated 1 billion people learning English. There are many reasons why learning English has seen exponential growth in recent years, but it all boils down to the fact that English is the “global language” of business, politics, international relations, culture, and entertainment. Although English is not an official language in many countries, it is the language most often taught as a foreign or second language. The English language is the global language for business, and a good command of English will definitely give one who is eyeing a globally competitive business or career a clear edge.
Communication problems, whether personal or business, translate directly into losses, zero result in negotiations, incompetence for global business, or the inability to conduct business in the international arena No matter what business you are in, how old you are, how long you have been doing business or who you are doing it with, a very important part of doing business is making a contract. This is really the only thing that is there to make sure your partners do what they say they will do. It is also the only line of defense you have if you don't see eye to eye with your partner, which usually happens in business. Whether it is with a friend, a family member or a stranger off of the street, you must have a contract to protect both of your interests as well as your business.
If you don't have a contract, no matter how successful your business is, without one, you leave yourself open to have it all taken away from you. A contract is especially important as many issues will come up down the line, such as: 1) How much Money is invested by Both Partners. 2) How much of the Company each Partner Owns. 3) When and how is the monetary investment paid back to each partner.
3 4) Who controls and oversees the day to day operations of a company and who has the final say in this matter. How much money invested by both partners will play an important role on how much of the company each of you own. That then trickles down to who owns a bigger percentage and usually has the say of day to day operations. This is an important issue to tackle in the agreement as some partners are really investors who want you to run it all.
Then there are partners who invest, but want to have control over it as well. This can cause some headaches as every time you go to make a decision they can challenge you on it. Another importance of a contract is to determine when each partner gets paid back, this also can save you from the other partner demanding funds. This especially important when the company has or isn't making much money.
If they do go to sue you over this, which in turn could ruin more than your business, as you probably don‟t have the funds to pay them back. So a contract with information on how payback of investments will work is a very important article in the contract. So a contract is supposed to be done for your business and any ventures or partners you have. You can find many sites online, including ours logo2d.com, where you can purchase contracts online for a very good price.
Protect Yourself and Your Business! As a result, the study on this subject was chosen so as to improve the writer‟s English skills, especially for those who have been studying English in business and applying them in our future career. Aims of the study After studying this subject, to the followings are expected to be achieved: state the meaning of business contract explain the importance of business contract in reality 4 analyze the payment terms and conditions in the authentic business contract.

Scopes of the study Most forms of international business contracts are known in English. This task requires that students must master all of them.

The third one is conclusion and reference 5 Part II: DEVELOPMENT Chapter I: Theoretical Background I.Definitions Translation has existed in every corner of our life. It is considered as an indispensable part in the field of not only literature, culture and religion but also commercial advertisement, popular entertainment, public administration ,international diplomacy, scientific research publication ,judiciary procedure ,immigration and education ….Thus, definitions of translation are numerous and a large numbers of writers have written about this subject .In this paper, some various concepts of translation have been collected as follows: Translation is the interpretation of the meaning of a text in one language (the source text) and the production, in another language of a equivalent text (the target text) that communicates the same message (E. Translation is made possible by an equivalent of thought that lies behind its different verbal expressions (Savory,1968).
Translation is the transformation of a text originally in one language into an equivalent in the content of the message and the formal features and the roles of the original (Bell,1991). Translation is studying the lexicon, grammatical structure, communication Newmark (1988): Translation is rendering the meaning of a text into another language in the way that author intended the text. Although these definitions are different in expression ,they share common features about finding the closest equivalent in meaning by the choice of appreciate target language‟s lexical and grammatical structures ,communication 6 situation ,and cultural context .Some sort of movement from one language to another also depends on translation types that will be show in the next part. Translation types The translation types are often categorized by the number of areas of specialization .Each specialization has its own strategies and difficulties .Some translation types are list as following: Word –for- word translation: the SL word order is preserved and the words are translated by their most common meanings.
Cultural words are translated literally. The main use of this method is either to understand the mechanics of the source of the source language or to construe a difficult text as pre-translation process. Literal translation: Literal translation is a broader form of translation, each SL word has a corresponding TL word, but their primary meanings may differ. The SL grammatical constructions are converted to their nearest TL equivalent but the lexical items are again translated out of the context.
Literal translation is considered the basic translation step, both in communicative and semantic translation, in that translation starts from there.
