Modified blocked form: This style is a modification of the full block form. It eliminates
the shortcoming of the full block style by keeping the date and complimentary close on the
right in their usual position. The entire paragraph being at the left margin, and there is
double space between the paragraph. This is the most popular form, as it has many of the
advantage of the full form without its advantages.

 4. Semi-intended/Semi-blocked form: This is like the block style except that the paragraphs
of the letter are intended. Those who use it say that it is easier to read paragraph which be-
gins with an indented line because one is used to seeing this style in print.
