Some Russian sentences are long, and when translating, translators should accurately analyze the sentence structure and break down the sentence into several short sentences to keep the logic clear. At the same time, the contract translation should use concise and intuitive expression, avoiding the use of overly ornate or unnecessary modifiers, so as to facilitate understanding and implementation.

2. Pay attention to the details

There are many details in the contract. First of all, the amount of money in the Russian contract translation should be consistent. At the same time, the punctuation between the amounts should be strictly separated, because a single punctuation error may bring huge financial losses to the company. Therefore, it is necessary to be careful and meticulous when doing the translation of Russian language contracts, without sparing any content.

3. Accurate expression of content

Unlike Chinese, some words in Russian contain multiple meanings. So it needs to avoid the use of these confusing words in contract translation, so as not to be seized at a certain point in future negotiations to distort the meaning of the contract, resulting in differences of opinion, which will bring a series of trouble. In addition, some prepositions in Russian seem to be similar, but the actual use of the meaning is very different. When translating Russian contracts, translators should take into account the language habits and cultural differences of the Russian language to make sure that the translated content can produce the same legal and commercial effects as the original text in the target language.
