The
paper begins with the introduction of Nida’s functional equivalence theory,
which is introduced to be reasonable guidance for business translation. Under
the theory, plenty of examples and cases are quoted and analyzed, achieving
functional equivalence in meaning, style and culture at the word level, the
sentence level and the discourse level. This result indicates that Nida’s
theory of functional equivalence can be best applied in business English
translation and functional equivalence can be achieved.
