Vietnamese business vocabulary

These notes come from this language’s vocabulary list. Terms belong to this topic’s vocabulary category or occur in the dialogues above. Renderings are study aids.

Local Court

Dịch là 'tòa án địa phương'.

Nhiều người dịch thành 'tòa án khu vực' hoặc 'tòa sơ thẩm' không chính xác về cấp bậc; cần giữ đúng ý là tòa cấp thấp nhất, xử vụ nhỏ.

myGov

Giữ nguyên tên riêng 'myGov' vì đây là tên chính thức của nền tảng.

Một số người dịch thành 'trang web chính phủ' chung, làm mất tên riêng cụ thể — cần giữ đúng 'myGov' để người nghe nhận diện đúng hệ thống.

ACCC

Giữ nguyên 'ACCC', có thể thêm giải thích ngắn 'cơ quan cạnh tranh và người tiêu dùng Úc' nếu ngữ cảnh cần.

Không nên dịch tự do thành 'cơ quan bảo vệ người tiêu dùng' đơn thuần vì bỏ mất phần chức năng giám sát cạnh tranh, làm sai phạm vi cơ quan này.
