中文摘要：随着经济全球化的深入发展和中国加入世贸组织后对外贸易的快速增长，中国与各个国家和地区的经贸往来日益频繁。在许多语言中，英语是从事对外经济贸易活动的商务人士进行商务交流的重要工具。为了顺应“语言的经济实用原则”，提高表达效率，人们在商务交际中往往会将长字符、结构复杂的常用词减少，形成了“商务英语缩略语”。

本文采用文献资料法分析了商务英语缩略语的结构和特点，探讨了商务英语缩略语作为主语、谓语和宾语的语法功能，并归纳总结了商务英语缩略语具有经济适用性、幽默性和委婉性的语用价值。旨在帮助商务人士在深入了解商务英语缩略语的基础上，正确使用商务英语缩略语进行商务交际，提高商务交际的能力与效率。
