Excellent. We're particularly interested in your analysis of the ambiguity surrounding the term 'reasonable effort.' Could you elaborate on that section?
English
太好了。我们对您关于“合理努力”一词歧义的分析特别感兴趣。您能详细阐述一下那一部分吗？

Certainly. My analysis indicates that the phrase 'reasonable effort' lacks sufficient contextual definition within the contract. Comparing it to similar contractual language in the industry, it's unusually vague. This vagueness could be interpreted in several ways, creating a significant point of contention.
English
当然。我的分析表明，“合理努力”这一短语在合同中缺乏足够的语境定义。与行业内类似的合同语言相比，它异常模糊。这种模糊性可以有多种解释，从而造成一个重要的争议点。

So, from a linguistic standpoint, it's not just a matter of interpretation, but an inherent structural issue within the text itself?
English
所以，从语言学的角度来看，这不仅仅是解读的问题，而是文本本身固有的结构问题？
中文翻译
👨
James
第 6 轮
Precisely. The lack of explicit parameters or examples makes it functionally ambiguous. We can cite specific instances of similar contracts where 'reasonable effort' is either qualified by a timeframe, a measurable outcome, or a reference to industry standards. This one offers none of that.
English
正是如此。缺乏明确的参数或示例使其功能上模棱两可。我们可以引用类似合同的具体例子，其中“合理努力”要么通过时间范围、可衡量的结果，要么通过行业标准来限定。这个合同中都没有。

That's a strong point for our argument. Moving on, you also highlighted some inconsistencies in the use of technical jargon. Can you elaborate further?
English
这对我方论点是一个强有力的支持。接着，您还强调了技术术语使用上的一些不一致之处。您能进一步阐述吗？
中文翻译
👨
James
第 8 轮
Yes, in several places, terms that typically have a very specific meaning within this particular industry are used interchangeably with more general terms. This semantic drift contributes to the overall lack of clarity and could lead to misinterpretations of obligations.
English
是的，在好几个地方，在特定行业中通常具有非常具体含义的术语被与更普遍的术语互换使用。这种语义漂移导致了整体清晰度的缺乏，并可能导致对义务的误解。

So, essentially, the report underscores that the document's linguistic construction weakens its enforceability due to inherent vagueness and inconsistent terminology.
English
所以，本质上，这份报告强调了这份文件的语言结构，由于其固有的模糊性和术语的不一致性，削弱了其可执行性。
中文翻译
👨
James
第 10 轮
Precisely. My findings clearly illustrate those points. I've also included several precedents where similar linguistic ambiguities have been central to legal disputes.
English
正是如此。我的发现清楚地说明了这些点。我还列举了几个先例，其中类似的语言歧义是法律纠纷的核心。
