法律英语中hereto的用法和翻译

Hereto: to this,上文已提及的,比如表示“本合同双方”可以说“the Parties hereto”,这里的hereto表示“to this Contract” “本协议附件4”可以译为“Appendix 4 hereto”,这里的hereto表示“to this Agreement”。

读下面的原文,可以进一步理解hereto 在文中的作用。

All disputes arising from the performance of this Contract shall, through amicable negotiations, be settled by the Parties hereto. Should, through negotiation, no settlement be reached, the case in question shall then be submitted for arbitration to the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission, Beijing and the arbitration rules of this commission shall be applied. The award of the arbitration shall be final and binding upon the Parties hereto. The Arbitration fee shall be borne by the losing party unless otherwise awarded by the Arbitration Commission.

文中两次出现的hereto, 都是限定Parties, 表示the Parties to this Contract 本合同的双方。

 “the performance of this Contract”履行本合同。

 “through amicable negotiations” 通过友好协商。

should 表示如果发生什么情况,代替省掉的if。

 “shall then be submitted for arbitration”应提交进行仲裁。

 “the Chinese International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission, Beijing” 中国国际经济贸易仲裁委员会(北京)。

 “the arbitration rules of this Commission” 仲裁规则。

 “the award of the arbitration: 仲裁裁决。

 “unless otherwise awarded by the Arbitration Commission”仲裁委员会另有裁定的除外。

这样,扫除了上述专业词汇的障碍,可把原文译为:

对于因履行本合同所发生的一切争议,本合同双方应友好协商解决,如协商无法解决争议,则应将争议提交中国国际经济贸易仲裁委员会(北京),依据仲裁规则仲裁。仲裁裁决是终局性的,对双方都有约束力。仲裁费用应由败诉方承担,但仲裁委员会另有裁定的除外。
