INTRODUCTION
In Viet Nam, the profession of translator has become more and more important
because in the context of integration with the world, Vietnam has become an
official member of the WTO. The center for labor demand and labor market
information under the Department of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs of Ho
Chi Minh City, said that in the 2017-2025 period, HCM City needs 270,000 to
300,000 human resources (of which 130,000 new job). The demand for human
resources in the social sciences sector accounts for 2% of the total, of which about
1,000 are needed.
This demand is not much in quantity but an important profession. This is also a high
income job with an average salary of 10-15 million per month. At the conference,
high-level negotiation, the salary is calculated in hours from several hundred dollars
or more. With some less common languages such as German, Italian ... the salary is
higher.
A simple interpretation is the transfer of a word, a sentence, a text (say or write)
from one language to another without changing their meaning. And, of course,
translators are professionals who translate texts (say or write) from one language
into another, so that people who do not share a language can understand each other.
Based on two basic types of human communication (speaking and writing), the
universities divide the translation work into two forms: interpreter and translator.
The universities also focus on training of four language skills , sepeacially
(speaking and writing. Translation and interpretion tasks will help students after
graduation and practice will find good jobs with high income. Thus, internship
plays an important role in improving fresh graduates’ skills before working.

3. Translation team
Translation is Important Because Not Everyone Speaks English. There’s a
reason demand for translation services is booming. While English has been
periodically crowned as “the language of global business,” translation and
interpreting services remain a vital part of doing business.
As a translator, the staff converts written material from one or more 'source
languages' into the 'target language', making sure that the translated version conveys
the meaning of the original as clearly as possible. The target language is normally
their mother tongue.
The staff can translate a variety of content, including: commercial,
educational, legal, literary, scientific, and technical documents.
The team will need to read through original material and rewrite it in the
target language, ensuring that the meaning of the source text is retained. They can
use translation memory software, such as Wordfast, memoQ, Across, SDL Trados

and Transit NXT, to ensure consistency of translation within documents and help

find the closest equivalents for terminology and words used, as well as appropriate
software for presentation and delivery. Moreover, the team also liaises with clients
to discuss any unclear points, then proofreads and edits final translated versions.
The team leader is in charge of researching legal, technical and scientific
phraseology to find the correct translation. As well as providing quotations for
translation services offered. He is also the key person that helps consult with experts
in specialist areas. In addition the team leader retains and develops knowledge on
specialist areas of translation. At last, he follows various translation-quality
standards to ensure legal and ethical obligations to the customer.

PART 2: DESCRIPTION ABOUT STUDENT’S INTERNSHIP
2.1 General introduction about internship
2.1.1. Translation
2.1.1.1.Determine the type of ways of Telegraphic transfers (TT),
When receiving sales contracts or orders,.. with the payment term of TT, The
translator needs to ask for ways and money to transfer to partners such as:
(1) TT 100% in advance
(2) TT 100% after the shipment
(3) TT 100% against the import export documents
(4) TT 30% in advance and 70% within 3 days before the shipment.
(5) TT 30% in advance and 70% within 3 days after the shipment.
 Step 2: Focus on the most important words are that:
 In advance in (1) means Trước
 After in (2) means Sau
 Against in (3) means Ngay khi
 Before in (4) means Trước
 Within in (5) means Trong vòng
These key words are very important that have effect on the ways, the time
and the amount of mounts the consignee pays to the consignor.
 Step 3: Check mistakes and the meaning of the words used in this
translation.
Firstly, the student has to understand correct requirement from senders. In
case the translator has no very clear requirement of translation. The student cannot
use exact words described in this terms according to international payment
regulations.
Secondly, check the mistake from the script. In case there are some mistakes,
the problems will happen to both buyer and seller.

11. 7
2.1.1.2. Translation Process of Letter of Credit.( L/C)
 Step 1: Determine the types of L/C
There are many kinds of L/C
(1) Irrevocable LC.
(2) Irrevocable LC at sight
(3) Irrevocable LC after sight
(4) Revocable LC.
(5) Stand-by LC.
(6) Confirmed LC.
(7) Unconfirmed LC.
(8) Transferable LC.
(9) Back-to-Back LC.
(10) Payment at Sight LC..
When receiving sales contracts or orders,... with the payment term of L/C, The
student needs to find out exact kinds of L/C which senders want to translate. In case
translator choose wrong kinds of L/C, there will be the big problem impacting on
both of consignees and consignor. The problems is about time of payment,
capability of being revoked or canceled,.....
 Step 2: Focus on the most important words are that:
 Irrevocable in (1) means không thể hủy ngang
 At sight in (2) means trả ngay
 after sight in (3) means trả sau (bao nhiêu ngày)
 Revocable in (4) means có thể hủy ngang
 Stand-by in (5) means dự phòng
 Confirmed in (6) means xác nhận
 Unconfirmed in (7) means không xác nhận
 Transferable in (8) means chuyển nhượng
 Back-to-Back in (9) means giáp lưng

12. 8
These key words are crucial important because every L/C has different terms
and conditions from others.
For example:
An irrevocable letter of credit is a financial instrument used by banks to
guarantee a buyer's obligations to a seller. It is irrevocable because the letter of
credit cannot be modified unless all parties agree to the modifications. It means that
one partner cannot cancel this L/C if there is no agreement from other partner.
While irrevocable A revocable letter of credit can be changed or cancelled
by the bank that issued it at any time and for any reason; or cancelled by the
partners in case they do not want to buy or sell products any more.
 Step 3: Check mistakes and the meaning of the words used in this
translation.
The staff have to understand clearly about these L/Cs becuase there are many
types of L/Cs and they are also very comlicated about their terms and conditions.
Moreover, L/C is compulsory, so the translator should check meaning of all
terms and condition carefully, if no, there will be risky for the company.
Secondly, check the mistake from the drafts before issuing the originals. In
case there are some mistakes, The buyer have the right to refuse payment, or it cost
us some money for discrepancies.
2.1.1.3.Translation Process of Documentary Collection
 Step 1: Determine the type of Documentary Collection
When receiving sales contracts or orders,.. with the payment term of
Documents against Payment, The translator needs to know which one the senders
want to use DP or DAP because there are some kinds of Documentary Collection
such as:
i. Documents against Acceptance (DA)
ii. Documents against Payment (DP) at 90 days sight
iii. Documents against Payment (DP) at 150 days bill of lading date

13. 9
 Step 2: Focus on the most important words are that:
 against in (i.) means ngay khi
 Acceptance in (i.) means chấp nhận
 at 90 days sight in (ii.) means Sau 90 ngày
 at 150 days bill of lading date in (iii.) means sau 150 kể từ ngày
phát hành vận tải đơn
These key words are very important that have effect on the time in which the
consignee pays to the consignor.
 Step 3: Check mistakes and the meaning of the words used in this
translation.
The student has to distinguish between DA and DP to make sure that the
translation will be correct as senders’ requirement.
Both DA and DP are the terms of payment related to acceptance of shipping
documents pertaining to each consignment from buyer’s bank. Under a DA terms of
payment, importer accepts documents on the basis of an assurance to effect payment
by accepting necessary bill of exchange. The importer collects shipping documents
required to take delivery of imported goods from his bank after such assurance on
payment at mutually agreed maturity date of payment.
In a DP payment terms, the imported need to effect payment against
respective import consignment, before collecting documents for delivery of
imported goods. Under a payment terms – Documents against Payments, the bank
delivers documents required for import clearance only after receiving the value of
goods from the importer. The buyer takes delivery of goods with the original
transport document of title delivered by his bank after effecting payment under sale
of goods mentioned in the document. The buyer’s bank in turn, sends the said
amount to seller’s bank as per banking procedures and formalities under
international trade. By the way, the translator should check grammar and the use of
words in this payment.

14. 10
2.1.2. Interpretation
Interpretation is a profession that requires constant cultivation. Besides
attractiveness, this is a job that requires a lot of skill and knowledge. The challenge
will not be small.
Due to graduation and lack of experience, students can not immediately
become an expert translator, but students know how to prepare knowledge before
each translation, so students have passed the first time with the best results. The first
challenge of translating is that students must always be careful about what they need
to translate because no one can understand all the knowledge.
2.1.2.1.Translated for the cheap Australian wedding
Marriage with foreigners is the choice of many Vietnamese girls. The
cultural barriers and language barriers have been the difficulties of thousands of
Vietnamese brides. They came to the company to use the Interpreting Service for
wedding and other related activities such as filming, filming, wedding and
communication.
The student is the bridge to help the Australian groom communicate seamlessly.
However, the student always perceive that a communication is considered
successful when the communicators understand the content of the communication,
feel the attitude, the attitude of the communicator ... to have the behavior , the next
communication in a manner consistent with the culture of the foreigners ... the job
of the interpreter is not merely interpreting or translating, but also expressing and
show the nuances of communication in the shortest time, especially the culture of
foreigners.
2.1.2.2.Basic qualities of an interpreter to complete work
Firstly, the student must be good at language skills and proficiency in the
mother tongue, as well as the necessary knowledge of culture, language, economics,

15. 11
politics, habits, geography, and job skills. These are the first requirements and
number one.
Secondly, Students need good memory, quick reflexes, flexible situations
handling, and good judgment. Listening to a long paragraph and translating is not
easy, listening and translating immediately is harder, students need memory to
remember what has been heard and the ability to judge, and also need to be flexible.
Be more active in unexpected situations.
Thirdly, Students need to be able to organize good work, This is very important.
Work schedules should not be too dense, take the appropriate preparation time,
contact the requesting party for more information- necessary documents, their own
requirements or to know the exact time - know the job. Moreover, the student must
take the initiative in front of the audience if conditions are available to get familiar
with their language style, pronunciation ...
Fourthly, Students need to be thoughtful, responsible in work and in the market.
As hundreds of other occupations, interpreters need to always be attentive, check
every detail before entering and when to take the job, should have the responsibility
to come along and always learn to improve knowledge.
2.1.2.3.Occupational accident
Occupational accidets are unavoidable in all occupations, but occupational
accidents in the fruit industry are unpredictable, difficult to handle, uncomfortable
and often miserable. Casual accidents in translation as:
Interpreters are interrupted by listeners to correct incorrectly translated
information. This situation occurs most often, many speakers and listeners are
fluent in foreign languages, still have to use interpreters as required by the work and
if translated wrongly, do not kill, borring ... the student can be stopped. And
reminders in a friendly or unpleasant way ... In all circumstances, if the student has
not been kicked out, the interpreter needs to calm down and be more careful;

16. 12
The interpreter is recommended for the reasons such as poor translation, too
audible voice, style, attitude, dress .. No other way is how embarrassing, how
frustrating, the student must still be happy to accept the ethics of the profession.
Thus, interpreter must check the work before and prepare well, that is the lesson to
draw;
The interpreter must cancel the translation due to subjective errors: sickness,
unexpected accidents, forgetting preparation materials ...
Moreover, a future interpreter will find no shortage of types of accidents, "face
loss", "brand" is severely affected, "image" is devastated ... the consequences of the
accident job.
2.2 Rationales of choosing topic
International business is activity of all companies in over the world that has
increased outstandingly during the last part of the twentieth century, thanks to the
liberalization of trade and investment and the development of technology. Global
competition has effects nearly on every company. Many source suppliers from
foreign countries and still more take part in competing products or services that
originate abroad. International business stays a all-embracing concept that includes
the smallest companies only exporting or importing with one other nations, as well
as the largest global corporation with integrated operations and strategic unions
around the globe.
Besides, the cultural environment of a foreign countries remains an important
element of the international business environment, yet it is one of the most difficult
to understand. The cultural environment of a foreign country includes frequently
shared beliefs and values which established by components such as religion, history,
language, geographic location, government, and education. Especially, Fluent
speaking skills and writing skills occupy an important role in fastening good
employment opportunities with profitable pay combination. Most national and
international companies use English as a mean of communication for all official and

17. 13
legal matters. Competent knowledge of the language accommodates in the
mellifluous conduct of operations, such as regular exchange of emails, presentations,
and sales and marketing.
Moreover, Translation and interpreting are crucial job which occupy an important
role in global business. It smartens communication by imparting information
reliably from one language to another in different nations across the world. The
translation and interpreting provide different services. Interpreters deal with verbal
communication while translators deal with written communication. Role of
interpreting and translation in global business provide all companies with services
in a number of business areas, and they specialise in specific fields. That is the
crucial reason that “Translation Of Payment Terms In The International Business
Contract” is chosen to study.

notary. It was really professional and
worth learning.
Saturday
(August 3rd
,
2019)
- Translated and designed
certificate of origin, quality
and quantity
- Translated certificate of
discharge from hospital
- The certificates of origin, quality
and quantity were very difficult to
me. There were too many specialized
terms and abbreviated words.
- The good point was that I could
significantly widen my knowledge.
Description: Another week passed and I tried so hard this week. The result was that
not only my knowledge but my skills were also enhanced. The formal forms such as
ID card, birth certificate or school record were no longer the problems to me
anymore. I also encountered some rare documents such as Korea certificate of
notary, which really improved my understanding about specialized files. Moreover,
I continued to learn new abbreviated words and medicine terms, but the most
exciting task was the wine menu. From this menu, I could study how to describe
foods and drinks in an exquisite way like a cuisine master. On the other hand, the
experience I got from the supervisor was very useful, I felt that it will probably be
more applicable in the future.

3.3 Summary
This is the last week of my internship. In this week, I continued to hone my skills I
have learnt so far. After getting through six weeks working as a trainee, I realized
that the internship period was not too difficult as I thought before. Thanks to this
time, not only I could gain more precious knowledge, I also got a lot of
unforgettable experience together with my colleagues. Although there were some
times I felt very tired because of overworking, I still wanted to spend more time

31. 27
challenging myself with this job.
In summary, I wanted to show my deepest gratefulness to everybody at Sao
Nam Viet company. I wished them a good health, happiness and success in the
future.

PART 4: FURTHER SUGGESTIONS FOR INTERNSHIP SITE
AND UNIVERSITY
4.1.For Sao Nam Viet
The company should set up English clubs for all staffs to make sure that they
can improve their communication by English because they are not very good at
communication skill, especially English skills. Team members and upper
management should focus on improving their speaking skill because English is the
key language that they use at workplace every day.
Moreover, the staffs should be motivated and feel valued when they're given
positive reinforcement and shown how their work contributes to the success of Sao
Nam Viet. This means offering employees specific feedback on how their work is
feeding into the broader business objectives.
4.2. For University
After experiencing an internship, I highly suggest main recommendations to
the university that the university should offer an internship class while students are
in learning process. The class is a great opportunity for these young men and
women to enhance their skills and talk about what they experienced so they all can
learn from what each individual is going through.
4.3. Conclusion
The purpose of the internship is to help students to enter the real world. In
addition, internships help students improve their roles and responsibilities in the
industry they are pursuing, as well as gain access to and familiarize themselves with
the jobs they are currently involved in. Since then, students have improved their
professional skills and soft skills. It gives students real-world experience
This placement gives students access to the careers they have chosen when they
enter university. Practical activities once again help students understand how they
will work after graduation and make timely adjustments, along with a more

33. 29
appropriate training strategy. The application of knowledge learned in the school to
the reality of work helps students recognize their strengths and weaknesses and
need to equip more knowledge and skills to meet the needs of work. In fact, the
curriculum provides a theoretical and useful theoretical framework for the discipline
and necessarily needs to be applied in real life to specific audiences and
occupational environments. As a result, the internships are becoming increasingly
important to the students. These early experiences help students become more
confident after graduation and find a job, which will help them not be so illogical as
to make them disappointed in the reality when they actually enter the labour market.
During the internship, the student can establish relationships in their careers, which
is very useful for students when they graduate. With good practice, the students also
has the opportunity to earn a job right during the internship.
