英语写作：写英文邮件的一点常识
无论在申请过程和小米们(Admission officer)的勾肩搭背，还是正式入学之后和tutor的邮件往来中，关于Formal letter和informal letter是国内中学英语教育很少去提及的部分，英语老师也很少会讲这个点，这里我只是说下这两种英文邮件的区别，起码大家格调定好了再写Email的时候不会给人无礼或不懂规矩的.感觉。
一.Informal letter（非正式信函）:
1.Beginning(开头):
Dear + first name
2.Friendly greeting(寒暄):
I hope this letter finds you well.
3.Contractions(写缩写):
I'm, didn't, couldn't,
4.Questions(丢出问题):
Do ? Why don'?英文信件结尾
5.Exclamation(感叹):
...earlier than I thought it was!
6.Linking(连接词可以口语化):
Well, Anyway, so, and
7.Phrases(短语可以口语化):
had a great time, couldn't have asked for, working flat out, back to normal
8.Ending(结尾):
Hope to see you soon + first name
二.Formal letter(正式信函):
1.Beginning(开头):
Dear Sir or Madam
2.No greeting necessary(不用寒暄)
3.No contractions(不准用缩写):
I am,
4.Normally avoid direct questions(问问题要客气):
"I would like" instead of "Can I have?"
5.No exclamation marks( 不要用惊叹号)
6.Linking(连接词不要口语化):
However, Consequently, and, also
7.Phrases and vocabulary(用词稍高级):
with regard to, appliance, it was installed, the following day, failed to (meaning "didn't"), procedure, he assured me, report the issue, contacted, under warranty, I am entitled to, replacement, phone me personally
8.Ending(结尾):
I await your prompt response,
Yours faithfully + full name
从上面可以看出来，大家申请过程中肯定基本都是写Formal letter的，所以用词需要规矩一些，和tutor的话，看亲密程度，熟悉的可以用informal letter，不熟悉的还是用formal letter以示对老师尊重。
