16 May 2007 05:31 | | | The meaning of the translation is perfectly correct.
However, this needs the attention of English speakers. I'm not very good with economic terms in English, me being not interested in financial news and have forgotten what I've learnt in high school.
Are there any uncommon/awkward terms used?
Is "market consumer" an acceptable term, or should we use "retail consumer"?
Instead of "changes in market customers needs for...", perhaps "changes in the demands of market customers for..." would be better?
Please give comments. Thanks. | | |
16 May 2007 05:43 | | | The translation says, "market customer", not "market consumer", but I agree that "retail customer" is a better translation.
There is also a typo in the cited original text: "changes in market customers needs for..."; the original translation actually says, "changes in market customer needs for...", but again, I think "retail customer" would be better here.
Thanks,
Karen Chung (original translator)

16 May 2007 09:50 | | | Hi karchung,
Thanks for reviewing your own work again  Actually, my previous post is not directed at you, but at the rest of the community. I totally believe that you have done your best
Dear everybody,
Please comment on economic terms used. Thanks. | | |
16 May 2007 14:30 | | | Need and demand have different definitions, need exists first and it might lead to demand - and consuming (sometimes not). Being a foreigner to make it more clear I would put it:
changes in needs of retail customers
or changes in retail customers' needs
(the genitive seems to be missing if I am right)
However, a retail customer or a market customer does not ring a bell at all (have graduated from a university of economics and business administration and read a lot of books in english on this subject, but a long time ago).
For me it would make more sense if it would be question of consumer market and its needs, or maybe only consumer. I guess they want to make a distinction with "business to business" -trade where the customers are companies - but aren't the private people who are your customers referred to as consumers? Also the word consumer is used in other questions, too.
I don't know if my comment is useful at all, but I like discussions in order to improve my skills...

17 June 2007 15:41 | | | Why is this one listed as rejected by me? I'm sure I never saw it! Can anyone help? | | |
17 June 2007 15:43 | | | jp, can you please un-reject this one and delete the new one done by the same translator? It seems to be a copy of the same one anyhow. This one should be accepted. |
