BEC商務(wù)英語(yǔ)熱詞：“起訴”英語(yǔ)怎么說(shuō)？

三一重工股份有限公司起訴奧巴馬，聲稱奧巴馬阻止其擁有俄勒岡州的四個(gè)風(fēng)力發(fā)電廠的舉動(dòng)超出憲法權(quán)利，并且未能提供詳細(xì)的證據(jù)。

在十八大召開(kāi)期間，三一董事長(zhǎng)梁穩(wěn)根接受記者集體采訪時(shí)表示，11月28的開(kāi)庭將決定法院會(huì)不會(huì)立案。如果不行，三一將訴諸最高法院。

先看相關(guān)英文報(bào)導(dǎo)：

The Chinese company last month filed a lawsuit against Obama, claiming that the president's order of preventing it from owning four wind farms in Oregon exceeded its constitutional rights and failed to provide detailed evidence.

A court hearing due on Nov 28 will decide whether the case will be accepted, and the company will take the case to the US Supreme Court if it's not, said Liang Wengen, board chairman of Sany, at a group interview on the sidelines of the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.

分析：

上述報(bào)道中的"file a lawsuit"就是起訴的意思。“訴訟”一詞，在外國(guó)有多種詞語(yǔ)表達(dá)方式，如拉丁文的processus，英文的process、procedure、proceedings、suit、lawsuit，德文的prozess等，其最初的含義是發(fā)展和向前推進(jìn)的意思，用在法律上，也就是指一個(gè)案件的發(fā)展過(guò)程。

三一重工股份有限公司起訴奧巴馬的事件在奧巴馬當(dāng)選前就鬧得沸沸揚(yáng)揚(yáng)，如今大選(election)告一段落，這件事又重回公眾焦點(diǎn)(public concern)。梁穩(wěn)根表示他們將會(huì)抗?fàn)幍降?fight to the end)，并能取得最后的勝利(victory)，因?yàn)樗麄兿嘈琶绹?guó)的法律，相信美國(guó)人的勇氣，也相信世界的公正(justice)。
