READING AND WRITING
E-MAILS
Exercise 42. Familiarize yourself with e-mail clichés given below.
Many people enjoy sending and receiving e-mails, especially if they share a common interest.
E-mails are usually written in a less formal style than letters. It is common to start an e-mail with the name of the person you are writing to, without starting with the word Dear. The following are examples of some appropriate ways to start and end an e-mail:
(1) Writing to your partner / husband / wife
Start: Dear + use the persons first name
Ending: Take care, or Love, or Thinking of you
Signature: Your first name, or nickname
(2) Writing to a friend
Start: Use the persons first name or nickname
Ending: Best wishes, or Yours, or Take care
Signature: Your first name
(3) Writing to someone in your own company
Start: Use the persons first name (in a few companies you might need to be more formal, but this is rare in the UK)
Ending: Regards, or Best wishes
Signature: Your first name and last name, and below this your job title and department, and phone number (or extension)
|
|
(4) Writing to someone in another organization or someone in a formal position of responsibility
Start: Dear + use the persons title (eg: Mr, Mrs, Ms, Dr) and surname (eg: Dr Smith), or just Sir/Madam if you dont know the name
Ending: Regards
Signature: Your first name and last name (you might add your title after this in brackets if you want to make it clear if you are a man or woman). Below this your job title (if appropriate) and contact details (you may want to include your telephone number or address).
