WRITING PATTERNS

NOTES

X. Study the notes, writing patterns.

1. Date – дата письма. Дата проставляется вашим компьютером автоматически – следите за тем, чтобы внутренние часы вашего компьютера шли правильно. Иначе могут возникнуть проблемы с сортировкой писем в хронологическом порядке.

2. Subject line – тема письма. Всегда заполняйте графу «Тема». Это даст адресату представление о содержание письма и облегчит ему сортировку писем.

3. With a new partner be rather formal… Следует помнить, что нельзя игнорировать основные принципы написания деловых писем, даже если вы пользуетесь электронной почтой. При переписке с новым партнером необходимо сохранять формальный стиль. Переход к менее формальному стилю должен осуществлять постепенно, по мере развития отношений с деловым партнером.

Karen and I both felt that the two-hour meeting we had with you at your headquarters last week was, without doubt, a great success. And we are looking forward to discussing our ideas with you in much more details than we were able to in that extremely short but highly productive meeting. I am sure you will be pleased to know that I passed on your valuable comments to our Managing Director, Diane Lee, and she assures me that she will certainly be in contact with you over the next couple of weeks or so. In the meantime, let me just say that it was a very great pleasure meeting you, your managers and enthusiastic staff and exploring the possibilities of some kind of a joint venture between us in the not too distant future.   With my best wishes, Brian Huxbury, Senior Product Manager, Thermoflex (UK)
