Letter writing:


  


The letterhead is located in the upper right-hand corner of the letterhead (pictured above), including the sender's address and the date of the letter, usually beginning with the location of the writer himself.

Letters to friends and acquaintances can not write addresses but write dates.

Some letterheads have printed addresses, so they do not need to be written.


  


The address on letter paper should be written in the same way as on the envelope. At the end of each line, a comma should be used and a full stop at the end of the last line.

At the end of each line, punctuation is not allowed, but comma is required for the province (state) name, country name, province name and city name.


  


Immediately after the address is written, the date of the letter shall be written according to July 1s, 1995 or 15th July, 1995.

The writing of 7/15/95 or 7-15-95 is not used in the letterhead, but can only be used in the body part of the letter.

There must be commas before the year.


  


  

Usage of address:


  


Address is the honorific term for the recipient, usually written on the left side of the letter sheet, about half an inch below the letter head.

In private letters, in addition to Mr., Mrs., Miss and other titles, acquaintances and friends and relatives are usually called by a Christian name (or nickname).

The following are commonly used terms in personal letters (followed by order of intimacy):


  


Dear Anna dear Anna


  


My Dear Anna my dear Anna


  


Dearest Anna dearest Anna


  


My Dearest Anna my dearest Anna


  


My Dearest my dearest


  


Darling Anna dear Anna (address between husband and wife)


  


Mg Darling, my dear.


  


My very own darling my dearest


  


Written to friends of the same age, usually in front of the friend's name, "dear" or "my dear".

If your friend's name is Bob William, write "dear Bob" or "my dear Bob".


  


For elderly people or acquaintances, such as writing a letter to Professor Adam Davis, the proper title is "Dear professor Davies".

But if the recipient likes to be called his name, you can also write "dear Adam".


  


To brothers, sisters or cousin (sisters), add his (her) name after "dear".

If your cousin's name is Henry Harrison, then write "dear Henry".


  


Other members of your family who are older than you, such as your parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, etc., write the names of relatives, such as "dear mother", "Dear Uncle" and so on.


  


  

Text:


  


The letter should start with the following line and leave an inch of blank on the left side of the letter.

Personal letters are widely spoken, and informal.


  


  

Ending phrase:


  


The ending phrases in private letters are usually used in several commonly used words or phrases, which are connected to the body of the letter.

The first word at the end should be capitalized, followed by a comma after the last word.

Different ending phrases will depend on the degree of intimacy of the addressee.


  


The commonly used concluding remarks in personal letters are:


  


With best wishes, best wishes to you.


  


All the best, I hope everything goes well.


  


With kind regards, with cordial greetings


  


With kindest regards, the most cordial greetings.


  


Kind regards, this kind regards


  


With all good wishes, I wish you all the best.


  


Best regards, respect


  


All my love, with heartfelt love


  


With undying love, I hope friendship will last forever.


  


Yours, your friend.


  


Yours ever, your close friends.


  


Ever yours, your close friends.


  


Yours as ever, forever friend


  


Yours sincerely, your faithful friend, you are sincere.


  


Your devoted friend, your best friend.


  


Sincerely yours, loyal to you, your loyal.


  


Yours very sincerely, your most loyal friend, your most loyal.


  


Yours affectionately, your closeness.


  


Love, love you.


  


  

Signature:


  


Leave a little bit below the end and sign your name on the right side.

If you type, you still need to sign your name in habit.

Private letters generally sign only Christian names.

Of course, there are also full names between people who are not very familiar with each other.

In private letters, a letter writer should not write his or her duty or rank in order to express intimacy and respect for the recipient.
