说明书的英文怎么写

目前，我国的产品说明书的翻译有许多不尽如人意的地方，概括起来，是由于不懂英语说明书的句型和选词不当所致。以下，我们就来讨论一下说明书的句型和选词问题。

一、产品说明书的若干句型

句型是语言结构的要素。无论英译汉还是汉译英都离不开句型。学习、掌握和使用句型是翻译工作者的必由之路。现将英文产品说明书的若干常见句型说明如下：

1．（情态动词）be＋形容词（或过去分词）＋目的状语

这种句型用语文章开头，说明该产品是做什么用的，例如：

1）本冲床主要用于冲孔、落料、弯曲、浅拉伸、剪切等冷冲工艺。

this press is mainly suitable for cold working operations, such as punching, blanking, bending, shallow drawing, cutting and so on.

2）该产品用于温度225℃以下的热水管或蒸汽管道上。

...may be applicable to...

2．（情态动词）＋be＋介词短语

情态动词should，can，may＋be＋介词短语，这种句型用于说明物体的特征、状态和范围，以及计量单位等。如：

1） cyj15－18－18型抽油机的结构紧凑。

2）风机用联轴器连接时，请注意电动机与主轴同心度，以免产生振动或引起轴承发热等情况。

when the blower is driven in mode “d”, the motor shaft and main shaft should be in correct alignment so as to avoid vibration and bearing heating.(原说明书把联轴器传动，叫“d”式传动)

3．be＋形容词＋介词短语

1）该机器操作时安全可靠，便于维修，能在恶劣条件下工作。

it is reliable in usage, convenient in maintenance and able to work under very bad conditions.

2）电机皮带轮上备有锥套，便于安装和拆卸。

4．现在分词＋名词

这种句型用于说明维修或操作程序及说明有关技术要求。如：

1）工作时请注意不要经常把脚放在踏板上，以免不慎踏动，引起事故。

when operating, don’t put your foot on the pedal switch board constantly, so as not to accidently step on the switch, causing accident.

2）浅拉伸时，要注意材料的清洁，并加油润滑。

4
