货代英语导读(第2课)(FOB 部分)
Unit 2: Incoterms 2000 - Six Major Trade TermsFOB – FREE ON BOARD (…named port of shipment)
“Free on Board” means that the seller delivers when the goods pass the
ship’s rail (越过船舷) at the named port of shipment (指定装运港). This means
that the buyer has to bear all costs and risks of loss of or damage (货物灭失及
损坏的风险和费用) to the goods from that point. The FOB term requires the
seller to clear the goods for export (办理货物出口清关). This term can be used
only for sea or inland waterway transport (海洋或内河运输).
10. 句子:
This means that the buyer has to bear all costs and risks of loss of or
damage to the goods from that point. 句中:
10.1 bear = to support (a load or weight):承担, 负担.
10.2 from that point
在教材的 p17 注释10中, 我们还发现有这样一些词:
port 港口
place地点
point点(INCOTERMS实指“具体地点”)
premise所在地(INCOTERMS实指“场所”)
说明:
关于货物应当交付的地点,进出口商对货物交付时责任、费用、风险划分
等,《通则》使用了不同的表述:
在仅适用海运和内河运输方式的术语时,使用“港口”名称,即 port;其他
情况下的使用地点,即 place.尤其 FCA, 当有必要指明港口或地点内的
某一“具体地点”时, 用 point, 而且卖方要提供交通工具.当交付货物的
具体地点是卖方的所在地时, 用 premise. 此时,卖方无义务提供交通
工具, 但卖方有装载货物的义务.
11. 句子: The FOB term requires the seller to clear the goods for export.
require = order, demand “要求,规定”, 正式用语,常用被动语态, 常用的搭配有:
require sth (of sb),
require sb to do sth,
require that + 从句,
12. 句子: This term can be used only for sea or inland waterway transport. 句中：
12.1inland 由前缀“-in”加 land 构成, 其中:
(1)-in = in or into (内,入内,在内).再举一例: inside
(2)inland 基本上有两个意思:
内地的,内陆的.例如: inland towns (内陆城市)
国内的. 例如: inland trades (国内贸易)
12.2waterway : 水路,航道,航路
railway: 铁路,铁道
roadway: 车道
highway: 公路,大道
subway: 地铁,通道
airway: 航线
从这些词中我们是不是发现一些规律了呢?
