Functional Equivalence Theory" , including Dynamic Equivalence and Formal Equivalence two parts, was first put forward by an American translator , Nida, Eugene A. This theory makes it available for readers of translation feel the same way as those of the origi nal. This theory has become the highest standard in Business Letter Translation in consideration of features of business letters, like normaliz ing, pries word, sample pattern, tactful tone, and its different functions like providing information, communicating and so on.
