Most letters in English are not very long, so keep the information to the essentials and concentrate on organising it in a clear and logical manner rather than expanding too much. Last Paragraph The last paragraph of a formal letter should state what action you expect the recipient to take - to refund, send you information, etc.   Abbreviations Used in Letter Writing The following abbreviations are widely used in letters: · asap = as soon as possible · cc = carbon copy (when you send a copy of a letter to more than one person, you use this abbreviation to let them know) · enc. = enclosure (when you include other papers with your letter) pp = per procurationem (A Latin phrase meaning that you are signing the letter on somebody else's behalf; if they

I'd be very / really / terribly grateful if you could… Thank you / Congratulations / Good luck When thanking someone for something, it is usual to say as much as possible about how useful / enjoyable / helpful it was. When offering congratulations for some success, you usually mention how well-deserved it is.

It was so kind of you to invite me to stay with you. I really appreciated all your help / advice. Congratulations on passing your exams / your excellent exam results! You really deserved to succeed after all your hard work! I wish you good luck / Good luck in / with your exams/your driving test your interview. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll do well / pass.

I would like to say how sorry I am about the trouble I have caused / that you were disturbed. The reason I missed the meeting was that my car broke down. Please let me know how much it cost and I will gladly replace it. I assure you that this will never happen again. Complaints State the subject of your complaint clearly in the first paragraph.
