award在法律文件中通常表达“仲裁裁决”；“损失赔偿金等的裁定额”这两种含义。

例如：The award of the arbitration tribunal shall be final and binding on the parties and such award shall apportion the costs of the arbitration. （仲裁庭做出的裁决应具有最终性，对各方有约束力。仲裁裁决应规定仲裁成本的承担。）

He was awarded RMB 5000 damages for the injury he suffered in the accident.（他因事故中所受的伤害而（经法院裁定）获得5000元人民币的赔偿金。）
