我們將通過電子郵件寫作的介紹來開始這個話題,然后我們以“電子郵件結構”部分為例。我們將學習有關電子郵件寫作的幾項技巧。這些是您非常重要的技能,可以有效地撰寫電子郵件,他們是:
Email structure
Formal and informal emails
Symbols, abbreviations, and polite languages
Enquiries
Requesting actions
Exchanging information
Making and confirming arrangements
Tip 1: Take your time. You don’t want to send an email quicklyand then find there are many errors in it.
Tip 2:Make it easy to read. To do this, always remember to:
Write in short paragraphs
Use white space
Use bullet points
Use short sentences
Tip 3: Be careful with emotions and humor
That's stupid
Tip 4: Be clear and specific
Tip 5: Focus on one topic in each email
Tip 6: Check your emails for any errors
Now, first for the email structure, always remember to write thesubject.
And it needs to be specific.Don’t make it too long and try touse short noun phrases. So, in these pictures, this one is not good.We need tohave the greeting part.It can be formal, neutral and informal.
而且它需要具體。不要太長,并嘗試使用短名詞短語。所以,在這些照片中,這個不好,我們需要有問候的部分,它可以是正式的,通用的和非正式的。
For the formal emails, we can write like: Dear Mr. Lee: / DearMs. Banks: That is Dear + surname.
For the neutral emails, we often use Dear Mary, / Dear Sara,That is Dear + first name.
And for the informal emails, we often use ‘hi’ and ‘hello’, asin Hi Mary / Hello Mary.
Then we have the email body part.
I am writing to request some information.
I am writing to inquire about your program.
I am writing to inform you about/of our new product
I am writing regarding / in reference to your advertisement.
To make it natural, we use some less formal words like askabout, just a quick note, etc. Like:
為了自然一點,我們使用一些不太正式的話,例如詢問,只是一個快速的筆記等。像:
I’m pleased to send you …
Just a quick note to ask about the meeting.
Some friendly closing sentences are as:
Thank you in advance.
Thank you for your help.
Thank you for your consideration.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Please let me know if there's anything else I can do.
Please feel free to contact me if you need any more help.
I look forward to working with you.
I look forward to meeting you.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Again, thank you for all your help.
we also need to have the closing part.
It also can be formal, neutral and informal.
For the formal emails, we use Yours Sincerely. / Sincerely.
For the neutral emails, we often use Best regards. / Kindregards. / All the best,
And for the informal emails, we may just use James
