INTRODUCTION
- Reason of the study
- Scope of the study
- Aim of the study
- Methods of the study
- Design of the study
In conclusion, the study on the translation of BA terms from English to Vietnamese is very important. In addition, I could have a more thorough knowledge and understanding of English for business and economic translation in general and business administration translation in particular. BA terms are in the English for Special Purposes (ESP) system of English for Business and Economics.
I only focus on studying the translation of BA terms by referring to terms related to BA, its concepts and its equivalence meaning in Vietnamese. This final paper aims to help students increase their knowledge of business vocabulary, especially to understand the concept of business terms in depth. I hope that this study will partially help students deal with the problem of translating BA terms.
This part includes reasons of the study, purpose of the study, scope of the study, methods of the study, design of the study. Chapter two is the examination of business administration terms and their Vietnamese equivalents and exercises are given to apply for the translation of BA terms.

This method attempts to reproduce the exact contextual meaning of the original within the constraints of the TL grammatical structure. It attempts to be completely faithful to the intentions of the SL author.. a) Equal pay for equal work. Free translation is the translation that is not close to the original, but the translator conveys meaning of the SL in her/his own words.
It reproduces the matter without the manner, or the content without the form of the original. Communicative translation: Communicative translation attempts to render the exact contextual meaning of the original in such a way that both language and content are readily acceptable and comprehensive to the readership. The problem of equivalence is one of the most important issues in the field of translation.
Denotative equivalence: The SL and the TL words refer to the same thing in the real world. Text-normative equivalence: The SL and the TL words are used in the same or similar context in their respective languages.

Formal equivalence: This type of equivalence produces an analogy of form in translation by either exploiting the formal capabilities of TL or creating new forms in TL. Some people described ESP as simply teaching English for any purpose. According to Mackay and Mountford (1978), this type of ESP is only used in the occupational environment and would not enable the speaker to communicate effectively in new situations, or in contexts outside the occupational environment (pp.4-5).
In the "ELT tree" (Hutchinson & Water, 1987), ESP is divided into three branches: . a) English for Science and Technology (EST) b) English for Business and Economics (EBE) c) English for Social Studies (ESS). An example of an EOP for the ESP branch is "English for Technicians". while the EAP example for the EST branch is "English for Medical Studies". 1983), notes that only here does the emphasis shift from purpose to subject. This type of ESP specifically deals with the anticipated future needs of English, for example scholars who need English for postgraduate reading, attending conferences or working in foreign institutions.
In the words of Nguyen Van Tu, Terminology is a word or combination of words used in a particular activity, job, profession. This part of the study is therefore based on the theoretical background of English for Business and Economics translation.

For people working in BA, each BA term is always attached to its own concept; and to name these terms comprehensively and precisely; we have to base on its concept obviously, it includes knowledge of english language. For translators, they must have knowledge of BA and read many documents related to the business field such as Vietnamese news. Along with reading business documents, translators should often practice translating documents related to those terms.
In conclusion, to translate well in BA, translators need to have many factors with experience being one of the most important. Therefore, to achieve the goal of good translation of BA terms in business, translators must conduct in-depth research on those terms.
