怎样撰写英文e-mail
虽然朋友之间写的 e-mail 或信件比较没那么多的限制,不过写英文的 e-mail 还是有一些地方需要注意。
开头和结尾
在开头的地方要注意打招唿,并称唿对方,如:
● Hello Liz,
● Hi, Alex,
● Dear Liz,
结尾要加上落款,并在底下打上自己的名字。所谓的落款就是:
● Bye-bye,
● See you,
● Regards,
标点符号
常用的标点符号有句号、逗号、问号和惊叹号等等,和中文的用法差不多。
● 陈述时只需使用句号:
I am doing math questions.
● 句子还没结束时,使用逗号:
It was very funny, and it was the first time I played in my life.
● 有疑问时便使用问号:
Do you like exercise?
● 感到惊讶时使用惊叹号:
That's a lot!
● 在落款之前的道别句要加上逗号:
Bye for now,
Liz
每一段的开头和大写字母
每一段的开头,必须留两格空白,例如:
What is the food like in Taiwan? We can buy Chinese food here, but I don't like it very much.
有些单字,开头字母必须大写,例如下列的几种情况:
● 每一句的开头字母必须大写,例如:
My mom says that I may buy my friend a birthday gift.
● 人名开头字母必须大写,例如:
Anna and Billy, are very tall and friendly.
● 城市、地方或国名等开头字母必须大写,例如:
New York
● 特殊假日的开头字母也是大写,例如:
Christmas
文字要简短
每个段落要简短,最长只能有 75 个字。如果 1 句是 7 个字的话,一段最多大概就是 10 句。初学者大概像以下这样就可以了:
I am studying for my English test now. It is really fun because I think that it is the easiest test! I think Chinese is difficult. I am trying to learn how to write many characters.每篇英文 e-mail 的内容也要简单明了,全篇文字最多只能有 25 行,初学者大概知道一下就可以了。
