Abstract
Against the backdrop of cross-cultural communication, although business English requires a rigorous style, the use of vague language can enhance the flexibility of expression. Consequently, research on the translation of vague language in business English has attracted significant attention and in-depth exploration from numerous scholars, and the study of vague language in business English has become an inevitable trend in English linguistics research.
