§ 1. ОБЩАЯ ХАРАКТЕРИСТИКА ТЕКСТА ДОГОВОРА КАК ОБЪЕКТА ПЕРЕВОДА
Текст договора относится к разновидности частноправовых документов (private legal documents) и перевод такого документа, как правило, становится необходим, если этого требует одна из договаривающихся сторон, или же некое третье лицо, действующее в интересах стороны в договоре. Свойствами текста договора, на которые необходимо обращать внимание при переводе,
являются:
1) характеристики оформления текста соглашения:
– кодифицированная предопределенность основных частей
текста: название (heading), дата (date of the agreement), обозначение договаривающихся сторон (exordium), декларативная часть
(recitals or premises); слово, фраза или абзац, связывающие введение с основной частью (transition), обозначение терминологии (definition clause), действующие положения договора (operative provisions), заключительная формула документа (testimonium), подписи
сторон (signature) и дата (date);
– разделение текста на главы, статьи, пункты, что зачастую
сопровождается цифровым или буквенным обозначением;
2) стилистические характеристики текста соглашения:
– однообразие средств и структуры построения текста;
– использование унифицированной системы символов;
– объясняющее изложение (фокусирование внимания, краткость, ясность, логичность, повторяемость);
– отсутствие эмоциональной окрашенности и ассоциативных
образов;
3) синтаксические характеристики текста договоров:
– наличие условных предложений (if clauses) и оговорок
(proviso clauses);
– частое использование пассивных конструкций;
– удлинение формулировок за счет придаточных предложений,
придаточных оборотов и однородных членов предложения;
4) лексические характеристики текста договоров:
– употребление «юридического языка» (legalese);
– использование типовых фраз и шаблонов;
– фиксирование договаривающимися сторонами отдельного
значения многозначных слов в контексте заключаемого соглашения (definitions).
Проиллюстрируем некоторые из обозначенных выше свойств
текста договора:

§ 2. ТРУДНОСТИ ПЕРЕВОДА СОГЛАШЕНИЙ С
АНГЛИЙСКОГО НА РУССКИЙ ЯЗЫК
Перевод договоров – одного из видов юридической документации – является сложной и комплексной задачей, решение
которой сопряжено со многими трудностями как языкового, так и
экстралингвистического характера и требует от переводчикаюриста основательной языковой подготовки, соответствующих
переводческих умений и обширных знаний в области как отечественного, так и зарубежного договорного права. Поставленная задача ориентирует, с одной стороны, на выявление некоей типоло22
Copyright ОАО «ЦКБ «БИБКОМ» & ООО «Aгентство Kнига-Cервис»
гии общеязыковых и переводческих проблем при переводе договоров, а с другой стороны, на обозначение специфики этих проблем в зависимости от характера перевода: с русского на английский язык или же с английского на русский.
Описание типичных трудностей, с которыми приходится сталкиваться юристу-переводчику в сфере договорного права, начнём
с перевода текстов соглашений, составленных на английском языке; к таковым относятся: использование клише, сокращений и аббревиатур; многозначность слов английского языка; контекстуальная обусловленность используемых языковых единиц; использование терминов, отражающих реалии правовой системы другой
страны.
Проблема 2.1. Использование речевых штампов.
Формулировки, используемые в английских текстах договоров,
традиционно относятся к наиболее консервативному способу создания юридических документов. Наиболее ярким подтверждением
тому является использование устаревших фраз и клишированных
выражений, которые встречаются лишь в договорах. Например:
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD – передаётся в собственность и владение (в
документах о передаче имущества)
WHEREAS – принимая во внимание, поскольку (в преамбулах
официальных документов)
WITNESSETH – "засвидетельствовано", засвидетельствование
said = abovesaid = aforesaid = aforementioned – (выше)упомянутый,
(выше)указанный
В текстах договоров зачастую используются устаревшие формы наречий, характерные лишь для юридических текстов:
hereafter – впредь, в дальнейшем; ниже, затем, дальше (в документе)
hereby – сим, этим, настоящим; при сем; таким образом
herein – здесь, в этом (документе)
hereinabove = hereinbefore – выше (в документах), вышеупомянутый, вышеназванный
hereinafter – ниже, в дальнейшем в этом документе
hereof – сего; этого; об этом; отсюда, из этого (в документах)
hereon – на этом (документе), на этой основе
hereto – к этому (документу), к документу
heretofore – ранее, до сего времени
hereunder – ниже (по тексту); под этим заголовком; в силу настоящего закона, договора, в соответствии с настоящим договором
23
Copyright ОАО «ЦКБ «БИБКОМ» & ООО «Aгентство Kнига-Cервис»
hereunto – к этому документу; к этому
herewith – настоящим; посредством этого, настоящим (сообщается
и т. п.); при сем (прилагается)
thereafter – с этого времени, после этого, затем, в дальнейшем
thereby – таким образом, в связи с этим, следовательно, в силу этого
therefor – за это; в обмен на это, по причине, из-за этого, вследствие этого
therefore – потому, поэтому, следовательно, зато
therein – там, в нем, в этом, в том месте, в этом отношении
therein after = thereinafter = therein under – ниже (в документе)
thereinbefore – выше, ранее (в документе)
thereof – из этого, из того, вследствие того
thereon – на том, на этом, после того, вслед за тем
thereto – к этому, к тому, на это, на то
theretofore – до того времени
thereunder – в силу этого закона, договора; в соответствии с этим
thereupon – вслед за тем, за этим, на этой основе, вследствие того,
на том, в этой связи
therewith – вместе с тем, кроме того, к тому же, вследствие того,
посредством, с помощью этого
whereby – в силу чего, на основании чего, при котором, при помощи которого
wherein – при котором, в чём, в котором; там
whereof – из которого, из чего, чем
whereon – на что, на чём, куда; там, где
whereupon – вследствие чего, после чего, тогда
wherever – всюду, при любых условиях
wherewith – с помощью чего, чем
Вот некоторые примеры перевода английских речевых штампов и клише в тексте договора:

В СООТВЕТСТВИИ С СОГЛАШЕНИЕМ СВИДЕТЕЛЬСТВУЕМ:
вышеупомянутый Арендодатель сдаёт внаём вышеуказанному Нанимателю следующие
помещения: …
... по форме, прилагаемой в Приложении (к тексту договора).
После своевременного письменного уведомления каждая из сторон вправе расторгнуть соглашение, вследствие чего обеспечительный задаток Покупателя
должен быть возвращен Покупателю.
К данному виду проблем перевода следует отнести и своеобразие английского текста договора, связанное с особенностями терминологии англо-американской системы права, оттенки значения
которой утрачивают свой первоначальный смысл в терминах континентальной правовой системы. Так многочисленные словосочетания, типа final and conclusive; full and complete; full force and effect; power and authority; costs, charges and expenses; obey, observe
and comply with; documents, instruments and writings; changes, variations and modifications переводятся на русский язык зачастую
лишь одним словом, например: constitute, designate and appoint –
назначить; over and above – кроме того, в дополнение; null and
void – ничтожный (не имеющий юридической силы, утративший
юридическую силу); save and except – за исключением, исключая.
При переводе текста договора это выглядит следующим образом:
KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE
PRESENTS, we do hereby constitute, designate and appoint
ПОДТВЕРЖДАЕМ, что настоящим
соглашением мы назначаем мистера Лоулесс нашим законным

Проблема 2.2. Использование сокращений и аббревиатур.

Проблема 2.3. Многозначность термина в рамках
правовой тематики.
Как известно, для термина, относящегося к группе однозначных лексических соответствий, характерна однозначность и независимость от контекста. Однако на деле переводчик постоянно
сталкивается с многозначностью терминов, значение которых выявляется только на основе контекста. Например:

Проблема 2.4. Многозначность общелитературной
лексики, используемой в качестве термина или
в его составе.
Для юридического языка характерно использование слов и
словосочетаний, встречающихся в обыденной речи, и казалось бы
прозрачных по значению. На самом деле в юридических текстах
они приобретают иные значения, логическую связь которых с
обычными значениями установить непросто. Слова литературного
языка также могут входить в состав терминов и, будучи многозначными, осложнять их понимание. Таким образом, данная трудность касается выбора правильного значения слова, которое либо
находится на периферии значений данного слова, либо является
омонимом. Например:
average – 1. нечто среднее, среднее число, средняя величина; 2.
авария (ущерб и убытки, причиненные транспортному средству и грузу в процессе перевозки); 3. распределение ущерба,
понесенного от аварии между владельцами (груза, судна)
customs – 1. обычаи, привычки; 2. нрав; 3. таможенная служба; 4.
таможенный досмотр; 5. пошлины

due – 1. подлежащий выплате; 2. должный, надлежащий, причитающийся; 3. должным образом; 4. следуемый; 5. наступивший (о сроке); 6. обязанный (чему-л. – to)
instrument – 1. прибор; 2. музыкальный инструмент; 3. документ,
представляющий собой правовой акт; 4. юридически оформленный документ; 5. кредитно-финансовый инструмент; 6.
ценная бумага
maturity – 1. зрелость; 2. совершеннолетие; 3. срок платежа по
векселю; 4. срок погашения кредита
outstanding – 1. знаменитый; 2. из ряда вон выходящий; 3. неиспользованный; 4. неуплаченный, просроченный; 5. остающийся спорным
performance – 1. деятельность; 2. показатели работы; 3. режим работы; 4. линия поведения; 5. исполнение, совершение (договора)

собственности; 4. право на имущество; 5. право на иск; 6. основание права на имущество
Примеры перевода многозначной общелитературной лексики,
используемой по контексту в качестве юридического термина:
General Average is designed
to provide an equitable distribution of these losses or
sacrifices between the Parties that have benefited.
Условие "Общеаварийные Убытки"
имеет целью обеспечение справедливого распределения ущерба и
убытков между Сторонами, которые были спасены от общей для
них опасности.

Lessor may pursue one or
more of the following remedies as Lessor in its sole
discretion may elect …
Наймодатель может по собственному
усмотрению прибегнуть к одному
или нескольким из перечисленных

Проблема 2.5. Поиск русского соответствия для
терминированной лексики.
К терминированной лексике относятся слова общелитературного языка, которые часто встречаются в текстах договоров. Такие слова, строго говоря, не являются юридическими терминами,
так как они сохраняют свое общее значение, однако в силу частого употребления в какой-либо сфере права в обоих языках за ними
закрепляются устойчивые узуальные соответствия. Использование
переводчиком других соответствий сразу бросается в глаза специалистам как нарушение принятой нормы юридической речи. Таким образом, проблема их перевода заключается преимущественно в поиске подходящего эквивалента на русском языке. Например:
The owner shall carry insurance on the building
but not on the contents
thereof, and shall maintain the roof, walls and
structural parts of the
building in proper condition for use by lessee.
The Arbitrators will however know the English language so that they may
hear and hold a case also in the English language.
Собственник обязан застраховать само
помещение без учета находящихся в
нём вещей; он должен содержать
крышу, стены и несущие части здания
в состоянии, пригодном для пользования помещения арендатором.
ошибочно: Собственник должен нести
страховку в отношении здания…
При этом арбитрами будут люди со знанием английского языка, способные
рассмотреть и вынести решение по
возникшему спору на английском
языке.
ошибочно: …, так, чтобы они могли выслушивать и проводить дело на английском языке.
Проблема 2.6. "Ложные друзья" переводчика.
Как известно, ложные друзья переводчика могут стать источником разного рода неточностей и ошибок. Существуют такие
слова и среди юридических терминов, например:
contract – 1. международный контракт; 2. сделка; 3. соглашение; 4. договор подряда; 5. договор – предмет торгов при фьючерсных сделках; 6. брачный договор
32
Copyright ОАО «ЦКБ «БИБКОМ» & ООО «Aгентство Kнига-Cервис»
interest – 1. интерес, любопытство; 2. выгода, преимущество; 3. участие
в прибылях; 4. капиталовложения; 5. пакет акций; 6. проценты (на
капитал); 7. банковский процент; 8. вещное право
В первом случае типичной ошибкой является перевод contract
через слово контракт вне зависимости от контекста, хотя по Российскому законодательству контрактом является иностранный
(международный) и государственный контракт; а соглашение между Российскими юридическими лицами именуется договором.
Примером неточного перевода слова interest может служить
следующее предложение:
The Joint Venturers form this
joint venture to acquire and
hold the business interest
in common.
Учредители совместного предприятия
создают его с целью совместного
участия в прибылях.
ошибочно: … ради совместного делового интереса.
Проблема 2.7. Слова и словосочетания с неявным,
формально не выраженным, но подразумеваемым правовым значением.
Некоторые английские юридические термины содержат имплицитные, то есть предполагаемые, скрытые компоненты значения. Перевод имплицитных терминов без выведения скрытых сем
или их неправильное установление может привести к неточностям
или искажению смысла термина. При переводе таких терминов
необходимо восстановить скрытые семы и выразить их при помощи добавления нужных слов. Следует отметить, что добавление
новых слов может потребовать и изменения структуры словосочетания. Например:
confusion or deception (о товарных
знаках)
defective delivery
independent contractor
negative covenant
сходство до степени смешения или введение в
заблуждение
ошибочно: путаница или дезориентация
поставка дефектного товара
ошибочно: недействующая или недействительная лицензия
независимый агент (стороны договора не связаны отношениями соподчиненности)
ошибочно: независимый подрядчик
договорное обязательство о воздержании от
действия
ошибочно: безрезультатная сделка
33
Copyright ОАО «ЦКБ «БИБКОМ» & ООО «Aгентство Kнига-Cервис»
orders and instruments
specific performance
unique property
предписания и другие правовые акты
ошибочно: сословия и инструментарий
исполнение (обязательств) в натуре, реальное
исполнение
ошибочно: специализированные характеристики
исключительное право собственности
ошибочно: уникальное имущество
Проблема 2.8. Наличие в российском правоведении термина или понятия, частично совпадающего с переводимым английским термином.
Наличие в отечественном праве термина, схожего по некоторым параметрам с переводимым английским термином, может
формально облегчать, но при этом существенно осложнять работу
переводчика, так как может послужить причиной возникновения
фактической ошибки при передаче того смысла, который был заложен в оригинальном тексте договора. Преимущество использования русского аналога английскому термину состоит в том, что
он понятен русскому юристу, работающему с переводом. Однако
стремление найти буквальное соответствие иностранному термину
в русских материалах может привести к стиранию специфики
иноязычной реалии.
Например, английский термин liquidated damages и русский
неустойка схожи в том, что они обозначают компенсацию за
ущерб, нанесенный вследствие несвоевременного исполнения договорных обязательств. Однако есть и принципиальная разница:
размер liquidated damages представляет собой убытки, предварительно и добросовестно оцененные с участием обеих сторон, что
придает им обязательную юридическую силу по английскому праву. Российская неустойка может быть скорее приравнена к другому английскому термину penalty. Цель неустойки скорее не восстановление справедливости, а наказание виновной стороны. Присуждение таких убытков согласно английскому праву маловероятно. Таким образом, liquidated damages представляет собой специфический термин английского права, не имеющий точного соответствия в российском законодательстве и переводить его следует
как заранее оцененные убытки.
Наконец, следует упомянуть о том, что английскому термину с
широким значением, может соответствовать в русском языке сразу несколько терминов, которые также различаются между собой
по объему значений, например:
34
Copyright ОАО «ЦКБ «БИБКОМ» & ООО «Aгентство Kнига-Cервис»
jurisdiction – 1. юрисдикция; 2. власть, полномочия, сила; 3. орган власти; 4. территория в подведомственности органа власти; 5. отправление правосудия; 6. подследственность; 7. подсудность; подведомственность; 8 . судебная практика; 9. судебный округ
invoice – 1. инвойс; 2. задание на изготовление (изделия); 3. учёт; 4.
смета; 5. счет-фактура; 6. дорожная ведомость; накладная; 7. инвойсировать; 8. выставлять счёт-фактуру; 9. выписывать накладную
Выбор правильного варианта перевода осуществляется на основе анализа содержания текста, при этом выбирается тот русский термин, который оптимально подходит для данного случая.
Если это сделать затруднительно, то выбирается самый широкий
по значению русский термин (соответственно: юрисдикция и инвойс/инвойсировать), так как это помогает обезопасить переводчика от возможной ошибки.
Проблема 2.9. Привнесение дополнительного лексического значения, исходящего из контекста
деловых отношений.
Иногда лексические единицы, используемые в соглашении
сторон, имеют значение, вытекающее не только из формулировок
юридического текста, но и из самого делового контекста, так как
он придаёт дополнительное значение тем или иным формулировкам. Сложившийся ход деловых отношений между сторонами и
любое обыкновение в профессиональной сфере или торговле, в которой они заняты, о которой они подробно осведомлены (или предполагается, что должны быть осведомлены), способны привнести
особый оттенок терминам соглашения, дополняя или ограничивая
их значение.
Под "профессиональным обыкновением" здесь понимается любая практика или порядок ведения дел, которые осуществляются в
профессиональной деятельности с такой регулярностью, что позволяют предположить, что требование их соблюдения будет учтено
даже в оспоримой сделке. А термин "ход деловых отношений" акцентирует внимание на существование определенной последовательности осуществленных в прошлом актов поведения сторон отдельной сделки, когда подобная последовательность является достаточной, чтобы рассматривать ее в качестве основы интерпретации однозначного понимания условий договора и поступков сторон.
Вышесказанное ориентирует переводчика на изучение и максимальный учёт делового контекста тех отношений, по поводу ко35
Copyright ОАО «ЦКБ «БИБКОМ» & ООО «Aгентство Kнига-Cервис»
торых стороны заключают соглашение. Исходя из данного требования, языковые конструкции текста договора переводятся на
русский язык исходя из разумной взаимосвязи между (1) прямо
выраженными условиями, (2) ходом деловых отношений, (3) профессиональными обыкновениями.
Таким образом, исходя из обозначенных выше проблем, которые приходится решать при переводе английских текстов договора на русский язык, студентов-юристов в их переводческой практике следует ориентировать на выполнение следующих действий:
• При переводе договора рекомендуется, прежде всего, изучить
широкий контекст: 1) принадлежность к определенной правовой
системе (англо-американская или континентальная); 2) сфера деятельности, к которой относится предмет договора, 3) тип текста
(договор купли-продажи, доверенность и т.п.); 4) ход деловых отношений участников договора и профессиональные обыкновения.
• После выбора нужного значения слова важно проверить его
на соответствие узкому контексту, то есть, подходит ли выбранное
значение по смыслу переводимого предложения, абзаца. При этом
следует учесть, что одно английское слово может соответствовать
целому словосочетанию в русском языке и наоборот. При этом, если дословный перевод не устраивает, то найти соответствие можно при помощи приема логического развития. Для облегчения понимания имплицитных терминов следует перефразировать их на
русском или английском языках, восстанавливая все пропущенные и подразумеваемые слова.
• В случае если привычное, основное значение слова общелитературного языка не подходит по контексту, то рекомендуется изучить другие значения слова по словарю, а так же посмотреть определение слова в толковом юридическом словаре и других справочных источниках, при этом следует обращать внимание на словарные пометы, относящие данную лексическую единицу к различным сферам употребления.
• Если различия в понятиях, выражаемых английским и русским терминами, существенны и должны быть переданы полно и
точно, то при переводе английского термина должно быть использовано развернутое словосочетание, раскрывающее оттенки смысла термина-оригинала.

§ 3. ТРУДНОСТИ ПЕРЕВОДА СОГЛАШЕНИЙ С
РУССКОГО НА АНГЛИЙСКИЙ ЯЗЫК
Теперь перейдем к анализу типичных проблем, которые приходится решать при переводе текста договора с русского на английский язык; к таковым относятся: лексико-грамматические
ошибки, многозначность слов русского языка, непоследовательность в употреблении переводной лексики в тексте одного и того
же документа.
Проблема 3.1. Наиболее типичные грамматические ошибки, встречающиеся при переводе договора с русского на английский язык.
К подобным ошибкам относятся, прежде всего, случаи нарушения следующих норм:
– отрицание в английском языке выражается за счет только
одного отрицательного слова в предложении;
– в английском языке артикль не употребляется перед существительными, значение которых уточнено числительным, например: under Contract № 25; Order № 1015; to account №. 100/1066;
under Paragraph 9 of General Conditions of the Order; in accordance
with Clause 6 of the Agreement;
– в отличие от правил русского языка английское предложение
имеет фиксированную структуру главных и второстепенных членов предложения: (обстоятельство времени – обстоятельство места)
– подлежащее – сказуемое – дополнение – обстоятельство образа
действия – обстоятельство места – обстоятельство времени; особый
случай представлен оборотом there is, например:
Помимо Спецификации и Проформы
Инвойса к каждой
поставке должны
прилагаться документы с указанием
на: …
Дополнить пункт 5.1.
Договора подпунктом 5.1.1. следующего содержания: …
ошибочный вариант: Besides Specification
and Proforma Invoice to each delivery must
be given packing documents with the following indication: …
нужно: In addition to Specification and
Proforma Invoice for any delivery there must
be an attached document indicating the following: …
ошибочный вариант: To add to the Article
5.1. hereof the Paragraph 5.1.1. having the
following wording: …
нужно: Article 5.1. thereof is supplemented by
Paragraph 5.1.1. …
37

Проблема 3.2. Ошибки, связанные с дословным
переводом русских словосочетаний при наличии соответствующих терминов в английском
языке.
Подобные ошибки возникают в силу того, что смысл переводимого сочетания не может быть передан последовательным дословным переводом входящих в словосочетание отдельных языковых единиц. Например, при обозначении должности лица, подписавшего договор, важно учитывать тот факт, что в английском
языке существуют устоявшиеся фразы, соответствующие российскому оригиналу. Так словосочетание генеральный директор может переводиться либо в инверсионном варианте director general,
либо как chief executive officer или executive general manager; русскому словосочетанию исполнительный директор в английском
варианте будет соответствовать managing director или executive
director; словосочетанию исполняющий обязанности директора
соответствует acting director; а словосочетанию заместитель директора – alternate director, deputy manager или associate director.
Проблема 3.3. Ошибки, вызванные нарушением
правил сочетаемости лексических единиц английского языка.
Буквальный перенос из одного языка в другой правил сочетаемости и управления слов приводит к серьёзным смысловым несоответствиям в тексте перевода. Рассмотрим три вида подобных
ошибок: i) переходные и непереходные глаголы с зависимыми словами; ii) словосочетания из существительных; iii) числительные.
Примеры сочетаний глагола с зависимыми словами:
заключать договор
давать кому-либо что-то; предоставлять что-л. кому-то
доставлять, поставлять чтолибо кому-то
поставлять кому-либо что-то;
снабжать кого-то чем-либо
предоставлять услуги комулибо
make an agreement; conclude an
agreement; celebrate an agreement
но: enter into an agreement;
give smth. to smb.
но: give smb. smth.
deliver smth. to smb.
supply smb. with smth.
но: supply smth. to smb.
furnish services for smb.; supply services to smb.
но: furnish smb. with services, supply
smb. with services

Ниже представлены примеры ошибок при переводе с русского
языка, вызванных незнанием норм сочетаемости английских глаголов:
КАРРА дает КЛИЕНТУ право
купить лицензии на Программное Обеспечение у
КАРРА.
Настоящее Соглашение составлено в двух экземплярах (на русском и английском языках) имеющих одинаковую юридическую силу,
по одному экземпляру у каждой из сторон.
В течение срока действия данного Контракта Продавец
поставляет Покупателю
электронную продукцию
торговой марки Jamo (в
дальнейшем Продукция) на
условиях Ex Works со склада
Продавца (Инкотермс-2010).
ошибочный вариант: KAPPA gives to
the CLIENT the right to purchase
SOFTWARE licenses from KAPPA.
нужно: KAPPA gives/grants the
CLIENT the right …
ошибочный вариант: The Agreement
is done in two equally valid original
copies in Russian and English, one
copy for each of the parties.
нужно: The Agreement is made …
ошибочный вариант: Within duration
of the Contract the Seller shall
supply to the Buyer electronic products of Jamo's trade mark (hereinafter the “Goods”) on terms Ex Works
the Seller’s warehouse (INCOTERMS-2010).
нужно: … the Seller shall supply the
Buyer with electronic products …
Примером ошибок, связанных с правилами сочетаемости английских существительных, является перевод следующего предложения:
Все исключительные права на
Программное Обеспечение
принадлежат и остаются у
КАРРА.
ошибочный вариант: All exclusive
rights for the software belong to and
stay with KAPPA.
нужно: All exclusive rights to the Software reside in KAPPA.
К типовым следует отнести и ошибки при переводе дат и чисел, например:
ПРОТОКОЛ РАЗНОГЛАСИЙ к Рамочному договору поставки № 151 от
02 октября 2013
ошибочный вариант: DISCREPANCY REPORT to
Framework Agreement № 151 from 02 of October 2016.
нужно: … made on the second of the month of October 2016.
или: … dated as of October 2, 2016.
или: … made as of the 2nd day of October, 2016.

Проблема 3.4. Многозначность слов русского языка.
Возможные проблемы перевода связаны с полисемией большинства лексических единиц русского языка, то есть наличием
различных смыслов и значений у одного и того же слова, словосочетания, фразы. Так слово "необходимый" в зависимости от задействованного контекстом оттенка значения может быть переведено
на английский язык как: 1) necessary – неотъемлемый, вынужденный; 2) needed – требуемый, нужный; 3) required, requisite –
обязательный; 4) obligatory – обязывающий, облигаторный; 5)
prerequisite – заранее необходимый (как предпосылка); proper –
надлежащий, должный. Сложности перевода данного слова можно
продемонстрировать на следующем примере:
Заверенные копии Сертификата Соответствия в необходимом
количестве должны
предоставляться Продавцом Дилеру.
ошибочный вариант: The Seller shall submit
to the Dealer certified copy of Сertificate of
Сonformity in necessary quantity.
нужно: The Seller shall furnish the Dealer with
the verified copies of Сertificate of
Сonformity in the required quantity.
Проблема 3.5. Редакционные несоответствия различных частей единого текста.
Несоблюдение переводчиком требования адекватной передачи
смысловой законченности и стилистической однородности переводимого юридического текста, логичности, однозначности и непротиворечивость заявляемых в нём положений приводит к совершению следующих типичных ошибок:
(i) Неоправданное использование переводчиком многочисленных синонимов одного и того же термина в тексте соглашения:
российский термин
варианты перевода
закрытое акционерное общество/компания
private company; private limited liability
company; closed joint-stock company;

Например, в преамбуле договора на русском языке определяется, что в дальнейшем по тексту соглашения одна из сторон именуется "Поверенный". В английском варианте переводчик отразил
это следующим образом: … hereinafter referred to as the "Attorney".
Далее в первом же пункте договора содержится следующее утверждение:
Стороны договорились о
следующем вознаграждении Поверенного: …
ошибочный вариант: The Parties agreed
that the Agent's fee shall be as follows…
нужно: The Parties agreed that the Attorney's fee shall be as follows…
(ii) Наличие или отсутствие артикля перед введенными в тексте договора терминами.
При переводе основных терминов соглашения возможны варианты; например, термин "Покупатель" можно перевести в форме как единственного так и множественного числа с артиклем
или без него: Buyer, Buyers, the Buyer, the Buyers.
Если в преамбуле договаривающиеся стороны определены как
"Sellers" и "Buyers", то и в тексте соглашения эти термины следует
употреблять без артикля и во множественном числе: The goods sold
under the present contract are to be delivered by Sellers and accepted
by Buyers.
Если же термины вводятся с артиклем: "the Sellers" и "the
Buyers", то и в дальнейшем они должны использоваться с артиклем.
41
Copyright ОАО «ЦКБ «БИБКОМ» & ООО «Aгентство Kнига-Cервис»
(iii) Написание вводимых в тексте договора терминов с заглавной или прописной буквы.
Если по тексту договора понятие вводится с заглавной буквы,
то и в дальнейшем его следует использовать с заглавной буквы,
иначе нарушается принцип однозначности и непротиворечивости
понятий, вводимых в тексте соглашения. Например, в преамбуле
договора под понятием "Товар" переводчик вводит английское
слово "Goods". Далее по тексту говорится:
Право собственности на
поставляемый Товар
переходит от Продавца к Покупателю в
момент передачи Товара перевозчиком
Покупателю.
ошибочный вариант: The property right to the
delivered goods passes from the Seller to the
Buyer at the moment of transfer of the goods
by a carrier to the Buyer.
нужно: The property right to Goods passes
from the Seller to the Buyer upon transfer of
Goods by a carrier to the Buyer.
Отмеченные выше проблемы перевода договоров с русского на
английский язык позволяют заключить, что специалисту необходимо учитывать целый ряд требований и обстоятельств, среди которых:
• Перевод следует выстраивать исходя из следующих установок: соблюдение грамматических правил английского языка, тщательный подбор фраз с учётом особенностей сочетаемости используемых слов, контекстуальное соответствие и единообразие задействованных языковых единиц.
• При переводе многозначного слова рекомендуется, прежде
всего, обращать внимание на контекст переводимого документа и,
исходя из особенностей той сферы деятельности, к которой относится соглашение, использовать тематические русско-английские
словари (юридический словарь, словарь банковских терминов,
терминов в сфере недвижимости, терминов лёгкой промышленности, машиностроения и т.д.).
• Для достижения поставленных целей студентам-юристам рекомендуется составлять собственные глоссарии английских слов и
выражений, применяемых в различных юридических текстах. Основными источниками могут служить аналоговые тексты на английском языке и тексты с параллельными переводами.

теме "залог недвижимости, ипотека" (Mortgage).
1. The loan and the rights appertaining to it are set out in a deed
of trust and a trustee for the debenture stock holders is appointed to
represent and pursue the interests of the individual stockholders.
2. Unless the partnership agreement states otherwise, partners
are at liberty to mortgage or assign absolutely their shares in partnerships to outsiders. The assignee is, however, only entitled to the share
of profits due to the partner assigning the shares, or on dissolution,
to the appropriate share of partnership assets.
74

3. A mortgage or deed of trust will describe the real estate, refer to
the promissory note it secures, and have numerous provisions relating
to what happens if the promissory note goes into default.
4. In consideration of the fact that you will pay all charges in
connection with the house…when the mortgage has been completed I
agree to transfer the property in to your sole ownership.
5. The valuer is a professional man who offers his services for reward. He is paid for those services. The valuer knows that 90% of
purchasers in fact rely on a mortgage valuation and do not commission their own survey… Many purchasers cannot afford a second valuation. If a purchaser obtains a second valuation the sale may go off
and then both valuation fees will be wasted. Finally, the valuer knows
full well that failure on his part to exercise reasonable skill and care
may be disastrous to the purchaser.
6. A mortgage is a type of loan in which the borrower pledges the
property to the lender in the form of a lien. A lien is a legal claim
against another person’s property as security for a debt or loan to ensure it will be repaid. The lien is released when the debt is repaid. If
the debt is not repaid, the lender has the right to take the property
and sell it to collect the amount owed.
7. Buying a house is a major long-term financial commitment that
involves making a large down payment and obtaining a mortgage loan
from a bank with a repayment schedule of 15, 20, or 30 years.
8. Mortgage lenders usually require anyone with a mortgage to
carry homeowner’s insurance so their investment in the home is covered if something happens. Renter’s insurance protects renters
against loss of personal property and liability for a visitor’s personal
injury.
9. Similarly, if the ship is in urgent need of repairs, the master
may be forced to mortgage, or even sell, the ship to raise money to
carry out the work.
10. And if the plaintiff’s money has been used to discharge a
mortgage on the defendant’s land, then the court may achieve a similar result by treating the land as subject to a charge by way of subrogation in favour of the plaintiff…
11. There are only four kinds of consensual security known to
English law: (i) pledge; (ii) contractual lien; (iii) equitable charge; and
(iv) mortgage. A pledge and a contractual lien both depend on the delivery of possession to the creditor. The difference between them is
that in the case of a pledge the owner delivers possession to the creditor as security, whereas in the case of a lien the creditor retains possession of goods previously delivered to him for some other purpose.
Neither a mortgage nor a charge depends on the delivery of posses75
Copyright ОАО «ЦКБ «БИБКОМ» & ООО «Aгентство Kнига-Cервис»
sion. The difference between them is that a mortgage involves a transfer of legal or equitable ownership to the creditor, whereas an equitable charge does not.

§ 5. ОБРАЗЦЫ ДОГОВОРОВ НА АНГЛИЙСКОМ
ЯЗЫКЕ ДЛЯ ПЕРЕВОДА НА РУССКИЙ ЯЗЫК
Представленные в данной части учебного пособия различные типовые соглашения на английском языке дают общее представление об особенностях договора как разновидности частных правовых документов. Прежде чем Вы приступите к переводу этих текстов, ознакомьтесь с подсказкой, которая призвана помочь в Вашей работе:
Алгоритм перевода договора
с английского на русский язык
Все начинается с просмотрового прочтения всего текста, в
ходе которого определяется цель соглашения, фиксируются стороны и предмет договора, выделяются базовые термины, оценивается стиль и характер текста, а так же его объем.
Далее следует этап непосредственного перевода договора с
одного языка на другой, в ходе которого:
– даётся дефиниция базовых терминов (нахождение наиболее
точного лексического соответствия в русском языке с учетом не
только отрасли применимого права, но и особенностей правовых
систем и законодательства соответствующих стран, а также различий в коннотации юридических терминов в языке оригинала и
языке перевода);
– каждое положение договора прорабатывается в следующей
последовательности: выделяются предикативные части и причастные обороты каждого предложения в анализируемом пункте соглашения; определяется и формулируется основная мысль каждой
предикативной части и всего предложения целиком; подбираются
наиболее адекватные грамматические и лексические средства интерпретации анализируемого пункта договора с учетом как языка
оригинала, так и общего содержания текста соглашения;
– выявляется наличие спорных или неоднозначных частей или
положений договора (если таковые есть в тексте, то переводчик
может обратиться к отечественному юристу-эксперту или специалисту в той сфере деятельности, к которой относится данное соглашение, чтобы прояснить специфику хода деловых отношений
участников договора и профессиональные обыкновения в этой
сфере; если помощь экспертов недоступна, то можно прибегнуть к
правилу «разумного человека» – интерпретировать спорную или
неоднозначную формулировку с позиции «обычного здравомыслящего человека», так как именно это правило может быть примене83
Copyright ОАО «ЦКБ «БИБКОМ» & ООО «Aгентство Kнига-Cервис»
