Abstract

With the strengthening of the trend of economic globalization and the support of national policies, the rapid development of cross-border e-commerce industry has become an important driving force to promote the development of China’s foreign trade economy. As an important medium of business communication, business English plays an important role in the development of cross-border e-commerce. Professional and practical business English helps to promote the development of cross-border e-commerce industry and enhance the market competitiveness of cross-border e-commerce industry. This paper briefly summarizes the development potential and prospects of cross-border e-commerce industry from the development of cross-border e-commerce, and mainly analyzes the linguistic features of business English on cross-border e-commerce in the new situation from the aspects of vocabulary, syntax and discourse. In the new situation, vocabulary presents the new characteristics of inclusiveness and absorptivity, colloquial and conciseness. Rich in tone and emotion and information conveyed by paralanguage are main features in terms of syntax, and make clear the safety of epidemic prevention in discourse. Finally, we hope to give full play to the communicative function of business English and promote the high-level development of cross-border e-commerce. At the same time, it also points out the deficiency of a small number of samples and hope that future research can break through the limitations, so as to further explore this field and draw deeper conclusions.
