Explain WHY You’re Writing
Hi Bob, I just want/wanted to let you know that blah
blah blah…
I-m writing because I couldn’t wait to tell you about
blah blah blah…
I’m just writing to tell you about blah blah blah…
How to Say ‘Sorry’
I want to apologize for…..
I want to say sorry for blah blah blah…
Sorry for blah blah blah…
How to Ask for Help
I was wondering if you’d help me (out) with blah blah
blah…
I’d be really grateful if you could blah blah blah…
I was just wondering if you could do me a big favour.
181


Expressing Happiness
I was absolutely thrilled to hear that/about blah blah
blah….
I’m over the moon to hear that/about blah blah blah….
How to Deliver Negative News
I’m afraid blah blah blah….
Unfortunately, blah blah blah….
Regrettably, blah blah blah….
I’ve got some bad news for you.
Ending an Email or Letter
Take care.
Hope to see you soon.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Keep in touch.
Can’t wait to see you soon.
I look forward to catching up.
All the best.
Don’t be a stranger!
 
Organization & Focus
182


You still have to remember what you're doing and make it very clear
in the letter. Are you thanking the person, are you answering a question,
are you asking for something, are you offering advice? Make this clear
right away in the introduction. Make sure the body follows.
Language
Again, you don't want to use very serious language in an informal
letter or email; you don't want to use too many formal or complex words
because that's not how we usually speak to friends and family.
With our friends, we're usually very casual and relaxed.
For example:
I just wanted to say thanks for helping me out last week.
In a formal letter, you would write
I'm writing to express my appreciation and gratitude for your
assistance with last week's matter...
Notice the different feel of the two sentences. One is very casual;
one is very formal.
Another example:
Should you require any further information, please do not hesitate to
contact me - formal.
Versus
Let me know if you need anything else - super casual.
To make your letter look real, the best thing you can do is ALWAYS
rely on your personal experience.
You must distinguish between formal and informal language
in English, not only for this exam but also for general
183


communication. Writing a letter or email to a friend is not the same
as writing a letter of recommendation for a friend who has applied
for a job. Here are some examples of formal and informal words
with the same meaning,
