外教研出的一本《商务英语入门》中有一个关于corporation的分类。因为全英版,本人有的不是很懂,望各位赐教~
1. private co. --attempts to earn a satisfactory profit(那就是私有的公司咯?)
2. public--owned and run by the government (go public不是上市公司吗?可是按照这个英文,应该是国有才对?矛盾?)
3. closed --stock held by only a few onwers and not actively sold on the stock market(未上市公司?不懂)
4. open --stock held by numerous people and actively sold on the stock market (上市公司?)
5. municipal-- cities and townships that carry out business(市政企业?)
6. domestic--incorporated in one province or country and doing busuness within that province or country (省内企业?有够奇怪的)
7. foreign--incorporated in one province or country and doing business in abother province or country (到底是省内企业还是国内企业?)
8. alien--incorporated in one nation and operating in another nation (和foreign有什么区别?)
9. nonprofit--service organization incorporated for limited-liability status(这个我知道,非盈利的嘛~)
先谢谢各位啦~
第2个,public,根据书中的解释,应该是国有的。但是实际上是上市公司,所以,是否书有错误呢?是的吧?
