Notes

• Press releases from relevant corporations and entities are a great way to pick up the jargon of a particular industry. An example for the studied week’s news comes when an English language and Chinese language press release are made on the same topic such.  On 22 July 2015 the Central Bank of the Republic of China issued an English-language release on the Taipei Foreign Exchange Market June 2015 and a Mandarin Chinese release on 104年6月份台北外匯市場概況 to provide comparison tables of financial terms in the two languages. Such as the composite below
  

(USD billions, %)			(億美元 ,%)
Items	Amount	%	項目	金額	百分比
Spot transactions	292.1	40.1	即期交易	2,921.00	40.1
