Abstract
With China’s accession to the WTO and the development of economic globalization, an inflow of foreign enterprises and the constant increase of Sino-foreign joint ventures, overseas investors in China need to know about the Chinese accounting principles. Accounting English, as “the language of business” has become an important economic factor in today’s economy. But at present, the study on the translation of accounting English is still in its initial stage, and many studies lack enough theoretical guidance and there are still a lot of problems in the translation literature.
As a special purpose English, accounting English has its own features in lexicon, syntax and rhetorics. All of these bring barriers to the translation of accounting English. Therefore, this paper offers a study on the E-C translation of accounting vocabulary from the perspective of Skopos Theory. First, four lexical features of accounting English are analyzed with examples; then the translation skills are illustrated , which are literal translation, omitting, adding, extension of meaning and the conversion of parts of speech. The author hopes that it can provide some reference to accountants and accounting English amateurs.

1.1 The Significance of the Study
With the rapid development of international business, the popularization of accounting English has become an inevitable trend. China has to involve itself in global competition. Commercial acts between China and other countries have increased dramatically. The international market requests every business to provide accurate and reliable accounting information to meet the needs of foreign investors. Accounting English has become an important factor in today’s economy. As a language with special purpose, accounting English has the characteristics of English and accounting language. In nowadays, more and more Chinese accountants and experts have realized the great importance of accounting English and made efforts in studying it to catch up with accounting progress. However, accounting English has its own features which are quite different from those of general English, so the traditional translation method is not suitable any more. The study on new translation methods is of great significance.
