1.1 Previous Studies on Economic and Trade Translation Abroad

As a part of practical translation, economic and trade translation has not been studied deeply yet abroad. But its relevant theories have been explored.

In 1981, Newmark put forward the categorization of text clearly in his book Explorations in Translation. According to Newmark, Roman and Jakobsons theory of language function is most suitable for the analysis of text translation, which is simple and practical (Newmark, 2001:40).

Based on this, Newmark divides texts into expressive texts, informative texts and evocative texts by combining the linguistic functions of Buhler and Jacobson. Newmark points out that the linguistic function of informative text is to state objective facts (Newmark, 1991:31).

Newmark further proposes that communicative translation theory is suitable for the vast majority of informative texts, such as non-literary works, news reports, scientific articles, textbooks, reports, and announcements. 'Semantic translation is used for expressive texts and communicative translation for informative texts and evocative texts' (Newmark, 1981:41). Therefore, Newmark believes that the translation of informative texts should be guided by the communicative translation theory.
