Examination criteria of English trademark registration in meaningful English

English examination should first look at whether it has meaning, and if it has meaning, it should also examine its Chinese translation. If there are multiple meanings, the common meaning should be examined first, and the first meaning in Kingsoft's translation should be examined at the same time.

1. Two English words with meanings, with different Chinese meanings and little difference in letters, or with the same Chinese meanings and great difference in letters, are generally judged by examiners as not similar.

(There is only one letter difference, but the meaning is far from each other, so it is generally judged as not similar to a trademark. )

English has the same meaning, huge differences in letters and different pronunciations, so it is generally judged as not similar. If both trademarks are translated? Eagle? , generally with Chinese characters? Eagle? 、? Eagle card? It is judged as an approximate trademark.

2. English plural, different tenses and different parts of speech are judged as approximate trademarks. This is easier to understand and will not be illustrated by examples.

3. English combination trademarks, some of which are meaningful and the whole is meaningless, are regarded as meaningless English and need no translation.

4. Examination criteria for combining several meaningful English words into one English word.

if several meaningful English words are combined and exchanged, more than 8% of the examiners will judge them as similar trademarks. ?
