Formal letters/emails

Formal letters/emails are written in a formal style to people in official positions; e.g. a manager, a course director who you haven't met before or who you don't know well. There are various types of letters such as giving/requesting information, letters of complaint, letters of apology etc. A formal letter should consist of:

• • a formal greeting i.e. Dear Sir/Madam when you don't know the person's name, Dear Mr/Mrs Wilson when you do know their name.

• • a first paragraph in which you write any opening remarks and clearly state the reason for writing.

• • a main body (usually 1-3 paragraphs) which develops the subject. Begin a new paragraph for each main point.

• • a final paragraph that sums up the topic, expresses what you want to be done or makes any other final comments.

• • a formal ending i.e. Yours faithfully when you don't know the person's name, Yours sincerely when you know the person's name.

Formal letters can respond to written information (letters/adverts etc). In such cases, make sure all points asked for are included.
