翻译技巧 增词
1．增补原文隐含而没有名示的词
The failure of either party at any time or times to require performance of any provision hereof shall in no manner affect its right at a later time to enforce the same.
任何一方在任何时候未要求另一方履行本协议任一条款，并不影响其以后强制执行该条款的权利。
2．增补能使词义更加明确的词
Specifically, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Party A shall bear all responsibility for any loses or damages suffered by Party B as a result of any mistakes, errors or omissions caused by Party A in connection with the processing and packing of the Products.
特别是，在不受前述一般性原则限制的情况下，因甲方加工和包装产品出错、失误或疏漏而使乙方遭受损害，甲方应承担一切责任。
3．增补被省略的句子成分
This agreement shall take effect on the Effective Date and shall continue for a period of ten (10) years. This Agreement shall be automatically renewed for one-year terms thereafter unless and until teminated by either Party hereto by giving six (6) months’ written notice to the other.
本协议自生效日起生效，有效期为十（10）年。此后，除非一方提前六个月向另一方发出终止本协议的书面通知，本协议逐年自动延长一（1）年。
最重要的是，翻译要清楚明白，不能让人看不懂或者产生歧义。所以可以根据需要增补所需的词语。第一条和第三条似乎并没有太大的区别。

Following is an analysis of the situation as of this Date.
到今日为止的形势分析如下。
Written above 通常指合同一开始就写明的签订日期，译为“上述”太笼统，应该用“文首载明的日期”更为贴切。

本协议构成双方关于协议标的的完整协议（各方均依赖于另一方在本协议中的陈述或保证），对本协议的任何修改，只有通过书面形式并经双方签字后方能生效。
这一句的翻译似乎值得商榷。括号中的部分，我觉得应该翻成：各方不得依赖另一方在本协议之外的陈述或保证。此句和上面那句的意思仍有不同。
6.
