非法吸收公众存款罪，英文表达为Crime of illegal absorbing public deposits，是指违反国家金融管理法规实施非法吸收公众存款或变相吸收公众存款，扰乱金融秩序，从而构成犯罪。

参考双语法规：

《中华人民共和国刑法》第一百七十六条规定：

非法吸收公众存款或者变相吸收公众存款，扰乱金融秩序的，处三年以下有期徒刑或者拘役，并处或者单处罚金；数额巨大或者有其他严重情节的，处三年以上十年以下有期徒刑，并处罚金；数额特别巨大或者有其他特别严重情节的，处十年以上有期徒刑，并处罚金。

Whoever illegally absorbs public deposits or absorbs public deposits in a disguised way, thus disrupting the financial order, shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years or criminal detention and shall also, or shall only, be fined; If the amount involved is huge, or if there are other serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than 10 years and shall also be fined; If the amount involved is especially huge, or if there are other especially serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years and shall also be fined.

单位犯前款罪的，对单位判处罚金，并对其直接负责的主管人员和其他直接责任人员，依照前款的规定处罚。

Where a unit commits the crime mentioned in the preceding paragraph, it shall be fined, and the persons who are directly in charge and the other persons who are directly responsible for the crime shall be punished in accordance with the provisions of the preceding paragraph.

有前两款行为，在提起公诉前积极退赃退赔，减少损害结果发生的，可以从轻或者减轻处罚。

Whoever commits any of the acts mentioned in the preceding two paragraphs and actively withdraws the stolen goods and compensations before initiating public prosecution in order to minimize the consequences of damage may be given a lighter or mitigated punishment.

非法吸收公众存款罪和非法经营罪：

二者之间存在一定的竞合关系，主要体现在未经批准，非法从事银行业务的，构成非法经营罪。但是，《刑法》第176条对非法吸收公众存款的行为以特别条款的形式作了规定，非法吸收公众存款罪和非法经营罪之间形成特别法和普通法的竞合关系，非法吸收公众存款的行为在一般情况下应当适用特别法，即以非法吸收公众存款罪处罚。但是，应注意的一点是，犯罪行为以特别法即非法吸收公众存款罪处罚以该罪能够对犯罪行为进行全面整体评价为原则，如果行为虽然构成非法吸收公众存款罪，但该罪只能对犯罪行为进行部分评价，不能涵括犯罪行为的整体，而适用非法经营罪能够对行为进行整体评价，则要适用非法经营罪。
