道歉信英文怎么说(共10篇)
群众热议的面向林林总总,食物本身也是焦点之一。包子似乎不再老土,一夕之间爆红,也成了部分网民口中“高端、大气、上档次”的代名词。“包子”的英文怎么说,竟也成了许多人争论不休的话题。
“包子”的英文到底是什么?英语世界最大、最权威的《牛津英语词典》(The Oxford English Dictionary)给了个标准的但却有点过时的答案:pao-tzu。
这个答案或许让绝大多数的人都深感诧异。不过《牛津英语词典》的主词条的确收录Tpao-tzu。这个“包子”的拼法是依传统的威妥玛拼音(Wade-Giles)转写,1927年就已经正式见诸英文的文献,出现于Genevieve Wimsatt所写的《一个白人在中国》(A Griffin in China)中:
The pao tzu is a sort of steamed tart.filled not withsweets but with chopped meat and green vegetables.(包子是一种蒸的馅饼,包的是碎肉与青菜,而非甜品。)
在汉语拼音广为大家接受之前,“包子”一直都拼成pao-tzu,直到后来威妥玛拼音江河日下,汉语拼音的baozi才逐渐在英文里出现。《牛津》引用了一则1997年11月14日《西雅图电讯报》(Seattle Post-Intelligencer)的报导就是明证:
Bao-Zi,a dry,doughy wheat bun steamed and filledwith shredded pork.(包子.一种小麦制小圆面包,干燥柔软,包碎猪肉馅,蒸而食之)。
至此,“包子”的英文已确定由旧式的pao-tzu转为新式的拼法baozi。
事实上,英国知名的《每日电讯报》(The DailyTelegraph)和加拿大最大的《环球邮报》(The Globe andMail)在报导习总排队买包子时,也都用了baozi。
“包子”传统上常翻成steamed bun(蒸的小圆面包),或是详细一点的steamed stuffed bun(蒸的带馅的小圆面包),然而这只是隔靴搔痒的解释,过于笼统含糊,还可用来指称许多类似的食品,译得并不理想。
“包子”是文化特色词,文化特色词具有其文化的独特性,极难在外语里找到现成的对应,因此在翻成英文时,经常以音译的型态出现。音译词不仅自然直观,又能最大限度保留原汁原味。当然,初次见面不免陌生,音译词佐以简短的解释,定能帮助了解,促进沟通。
我们的目标,就是让英文里多些来自中文的词语,音译为主,解释为辅。用语音转写来翻译文化特色词时,许多人的反应总是窃笑惊讶,不以为然,甚至嗤之以鼻。大家或许有所不知,这种直接法是最常见的,放诸四海皆准,任何的语言都是如此。

英文道歉信6Dear Ms Winston,The purpose of this is to convey to you my sincere apologies for any inconvenience you may have experience last month with respect to the installation of your Internet high speed service.I just returned from vacation this week and found your file in my in-basket.As soon as I reviewed your case it was clear that somehow your Jau.20th request for a change in service had somehow slipped through the cracks.The only possible explanation I can give is that we have recently had a number of key staff changes, which might have resulted in your letter being overlooked.Consequently, I have directed our installation group to contact you by the end of this week to set up a time convenient to you when they could go to your house and install your new router and make the necessary adjustments to your software.Because of this serious oversight, and as a testament to our appreciation of you as out customer , we are going to provide you with your first three months of high speed service for free charge.There fore, your account will not be billed until June of this year.Ms.Winston, let me assure you that what happened in your case is not typical of CableNet’s level of customer service.We continue to be committed to providing you and all of our customers with the highest standards of service in the industry.If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to call me atxxxxxxx.Yours in service

Because of losing a borrowed book
Dear Frank:
I am terribly sorry to tell you that I have lost the valuable book you were so kind to lend me last week. I read it everyday and intended to finish it next month. Last night when I came to my room, it was nowhere to be found. I will try to recover it as soon as possible. If I fail to find it, I will get a new book for you. But I am afraid it can never take the place of the old one. Old books are like old friends. Once lost, they can never be replaced. They are connected with cherished associations which the new ones can never have. And for this irrecoverable loss, I am to blame. I was so careless with my things. This is a warning to me to be more careful in the future.
Yours truly,

Dear David:
I am afraid that you will think me unpardonably negligent in not having answered your letter dated 7, December sooner, but when I have told you the reason, I trust you will be convinced that the neglect was excusable. When your letter arrived, I was just in Hong Kong.
As my family could not forward it to me during my absence, it has been, therefore, lying on my desk until the moment when I took it up. Now the first thing I have to hasten to do is to write to you these few lines to express my deep regret.
I enjoyed many pleasant sights during my trip. I shall be pleased to give you an account to of them when I see you next.
Sincerely yours,

Dear Kate:
Excuse me for my long delaying in returning to you your “Robinson Crusoe” which I read through with great interest. I had finished reading the book and was about to return it when my cousin came to see me. Never having seen the book, She was so interested in it that I had to retain it longer. However, I hope that in view of the additional delight thus afforded by your book, you will overlook my negligence in not returning it sooner. Thanking you again for the loan.
Sincerely yours,
