It is sometimes said that English is English and that there are no differences between different kinds of English, but this is not the case. American English is generally quite different from UK English. The main differences are the use of certain words and spelling. American English is much more phonetic (與發(fā)音近似的) than UK English and in American English a ‘z’ or a ‘c’ is often used where an ‘s’ would be used in British English.

Words can vary in different types of English as well. British people talk of “rubbish” while the Americans call this “garbage”. The UK people have “petrol”, but the Americans have “gasoline”.

The differences between these ways of using English make translating works into English a difficult business. There are translation tools on the Internet, but these can often translate words in a very direct (直接的) way and the end result is a sentence that has lost its meaning.

The best way of translating any written piece of work into the English language is to first decide what kind of English is you want the piece to be translated into. For example, if it is for a British market, then use the UK English. For the best result, always use some kind of spelling and grammar checker so you can make sure that you are using the proper terms, spelling and vocabulary.
