Writing semi-formal letter

• phrasal verbs (e.g. hand in, turn up)
• contracted forms (e.g. we’ll, I’m, don’t)
• personal pronouns (e.g. I, we, you)
A personal letter includes the following parts:
• a greeting or salutation (Dear /Hello /Hi followed by the addressee’s first name) or just Hello! / Hi! / Hey! For example: Dear Emma, Hello / Hi Emma,
• an opening statement; for example: How are you? How is life?
• an introduction in which you clearly state the reason for writing; for example: I thought I’d drop you a line...
• the main body in which you develop the topic of the letter; it is recommended to develop each main point in a separate paragraph;
• the conclusion in which you write your closing remarks, express your wish for something to be done, etc.
• the closing statement; for example: Send my love to..., Write back soon, I can’t wait to hear from you, etc.
• an informal ending or signing off; for example: Wishes, / Love, / Kindly,
• the signature (your first name; for example, Michael or your nickname; for example, Mike)
