Yours 英文书信格式概述1、信头(Heading) 指发信人的姓名(单位名称)、地址和日期,一般写在信纸的右上角。英文地址的写法与中文完全不同,地址的名称按从小到大的顺序:第一行写门牌号码和街名;第二行写县、市、省、州、邮编、国名;然后
34、再写日期。标点符号一般在每一行的末尾都不用,但在每一行的之间,该用的还要用,例如在写日期的时候。日期的写法,如1997年7月30日,英文为:July 30,1997(最为普遍); July 30th,1997;30th July,1997等。1997不可写成97。2、信内地址(Inside Address) 在一般的社交信中,信内收信人的地址通常省略,但是在公务信函中不能。将收信人的姓名、地址等写在信头日期下方的左角上,要求与对信头的要求一样,不必再写日期。3、称呼(Salutation)是写信人对收信人的称呼用语。位置在信内地址下方一、二行的地方,从该行的顶格写起,在称呼后面一般用逗号(英国
35、式),也可以用冒号(美国式)。(1)写给亲人、亲戚和关系密切的朋友时,用Dear或My dear再加上表示亲属关系的称呼或直称其名(这里指名字,不是姓氏)。例如:My dear father,Dear Tom等。(2)写给公务上的信函用Dear Madam,Dear Sir或Gentleman(Gentlemen)。注意:Dear纯属公务上往来的客气形式。Gentlemen总是以复数形式出现,前不加Dear,是Dear Sir的复数形式。(3)写给收信人的信,也可用头衔、职位、职称、学位等再加姓氏或姓氏和名字。例如:Dear Prof. Tim Scales, Dear Dr. John Sm
36、ith。假如你不知道收信人的姓名,可用Dear Sir(s), Dear Madam, Dear Sir or Madam.假如你知道收信人的姓名,但他并非你的好友,可用Dear Mr. Smith, Dear Ms. Smith, Dear Dr. Smith, Dear Prof. Smith.4、正文(Body of the Letter)位置在下面称呼语隔一行,是信的核心部分。因此要求正文层次分明、简单易懂。和中文信不同的是,正文中一般不用Hello!(你好!) 正文有缩进式和齐头式两种。每段书信第一行的第一个字母稍微向右缩进些,通常以五个字母为宜,每段第二行从左面顶格写起,这就是缩进
37、式。但美国人写信各段落往往不用缩进式,用齐头式,即每一行都从左面顶格写起。商务信件大都采用齐头式的写法。5、结束语(Complimentary Close)在正文下面的一、二行处,从信纸的中间偏右处开始,第一个词开头要大写,句末用逗号。不同的对象,结束语的写法也不同。(1)写给家人、亲戚,用Your loving grandfather,Lovingly yours,Lovingly,等;(2)写给熟人、朋友,用Yours cordially,Yours affectionately, Best regards, Best wish, Love等;(3)写业务信函用Truly yours(Yo
38、urs truly),Faithfully yours(Yours faithfully)等;(4)对上级、长辈用Yours obediently(Obediently yours),Yours respectfully(Respectfully yours)等; (5) 假如你知道收信人的姓名,但他并非你的好友,用Yours Sincerely。6、签名(Signature)低于结束语一至二行,从信纸中间偏右的地方开始,在结束语的正下方,在签完名字的下面还要有用打字机打出的名字,以便识别。职务、职称可打在名字的下面。当然,写给亲朋好友的信,就不必再打了。(一)感谢信常用句型1I am gra
