英文信件篇1:英语书信


  英语书信是英语写作中的重要形式之一,如何写英语书信呢?下面请随CN人才网小编一起来看看吧!
  英语书信
  英文书信的垂直式和齐头式。
  商业英文书信,一般都要求用打字机或电脑整齐地打印,左边各行开头垂直的,称为垂直式或齐头式(block style),美国常用这种格式;每段的第一个词缩进去,称为缩进式或锯齿式(indented style),英国常用此格式。垂直式的职务及签名都在左边的边栏界线,这种格式,在极度尊重工作效率的美国公司,已普遍采用。正式的商业英语书信要在称呼的上方写上收信公司名称和地址或收信人的名字全称、职务及地址,称为信内地址(inside address)。信内地址的写法也有垂直式和缩进式之分,垂直式和称美国式将各行并列,缩进式或称英国式将各行依次退缩。
  普通书信的写法。
  近来英国商业书信信内地址并未依次缩进,似乎与美国式相同。此外,在美国还流行一种普通收信人地址的写法,就是在书信的inside address中,把门牌号和街名都省略掉。在英文书信中要使用敬语,最普遍的敬语是mr,mrs和miss(用于未婚女性)。英国人常在男性的姓名之后用esq.(esquire的缩写),不过在商业上也在慢慢地改用mr. mmes.(madam的复数形式),用于二个女士以上。messrs(mr的复数形式)用于二个以上的男人,或用于二个以上的男人组成的公司或团体。在英国式英文信里,mr, mrs, messrs,均不加缩写句点,相反地趋向于进步自由的美语反而加缩写句点如mr., mrs., messrs.。在称呼方面,商业上最普遍的有gentlemen(美国式)与dear sirs(英国式)二种,相当于我国的“敬启者”或“谨启者”。
  典型的美国式书写法。
  给公司单位写信时美语用gentlemen(复数形式),英语用dear sirs。如果对方公司只一人时,必须使用sir/dear sir。称呼后一般要使用标点符号,英国式采用逗号(comma),美国式用分号(colon)。书信结尾客套语(complimentary close)有多种,相当于我国书信在结尾时使用的“敬礼”、“致敬”、“顺安”等句。最为典型的美国式写法是sincerely和best regards,典型的英国式表达有yours sincerely(熟人或知道对方姓名),best wishes, kind regards 和yours
  faithfully(不知姓名)。此外,英国式的客套语还有特别礼貌的格式,但除了特殊情况外,现在不再使用。
  (一) 英语书信结构、书写款式及要求:
  1.书信结构
  英语书信结构一般有以下几个部分组成:
  1)信封(envelope)。英语的信封和中文的一样,有三部分组成,即发信人地址、收信人地址和邮票。只不过英语信封的格式除了邮票所贴的位置(信封的右上角)和中文的一样外,英语信封上要写的发信人和收信人的地址和中文的大不一样。发信人的地址应写在信封的左上角,收信人的地址应写在信封偏中右偏下处,如下:
  2)信头 (heading),即写发信人的地址和日期(右上角)。
  3)信内姓名地址 (inside address),即写收信人的姓名和地址(左上角)。
  4) 称呼 (salutation),即写对收信人的尊称(一般用dear mr. … ,; dear madam helen,; dear miss…,; dear john,; dear professor smith,等)。称呼直接写在收信人地址的正下方,中间空一至二行。称呼后面的标点一般只能用逗号。以上信头、信内姓名和地址三部分的结构如下:
  注:如果是相当熟悉和随便的朋友之间,因为彼此都知道对方的地址,故信头和信内的地址常常省略。
  5)正文 (body),即信件内的主要内容。正文第一句句子一般和称呼之间空一至二行。
  6)信尾客套语 (complimentary close),即写信人在信的右(或左)下角,写上表示自己对收
  信人一种礼貌客气的谦称。一般有sincerely,; sincerely yours,; yours sincerely,; friendly
  yours,; truly yours,; yours truly,; cordially yours,; yours cordially,等。
  7)信尾签名 (signature),即亲笔签上写信人自己的姓名。如果是用打字机或电脑写的信,在写信人签名的上方,同样应该打上写信人的姓名。
  除以上七个部分外,有时一些英语书信还包括:(1)附件 (enclosure),以enc. 表示,如“附有。。。。。。证明”应写为enc…certificate;(2)再启 (postscript),以p.s. 表示;(3)抄送件(carbon copy to…),以c.c. 表示,说明一式多份抄送其他有关人员。这些都是次要的补充部分。p.s. 主要在私人信件中使用,事务信件中应避免使用,以免造成写信人粗心大意的印象。enc.和c.c. 大都用在商贸信函中。
  2.书写款式
  英语书信的款式一般有两种:齐头式 (block style) 和折衷式 (semi-block style)。齐头式常常在商贸、官方以及一些正式的信件中使用,以显示信件内容的严肃性,真实性,
  可靠性。而折衷式则显的比较随便,主要用于家人、朋友、私人之间来往的信件。如果两人之间不是第一次通信,相互比较了解,可以省略信内的双方地址。
  以下分别介绍齐头式和折衷式信件两种款式。
  a: 齐头式信件款式:
  ( 范文 1。 )
  注:用齐头式信件写信,其正文与称呼之间空一至二行。每段的第一句句子不需要空
  格,但段与段之间需要空一至二行。齐头式信件的信尾客套话和签名可以有两种款式。第一种写在左下方,这是最常用也是最正式的。另外也可以写在右下方,这种形式则表示写信人与收信人之间的关系比较熟悉随便。下面是另一种齐头式信件的格式。
  齐头式信件款式:
  (范文 2。)
  b: 折衷式信件款式:
  用折衷式书写信件,其正文与称呼之间空一至二行。第一段第一句的第一个单词必须在dear称呼的直接下面。以后每段开头都要与第一段第一个字对齐。信尾的客套话和签名都写在右下方。朋友之间写信一般都使用折衷式,而且称呼与正文之间一般不空行。具体款式和要求参见后面的一些信件。
  以下是一封折衷式信件。
  3.信件书写要求:
  写英语信件一般可以使用打字机、电脑,朋友之间比较随便的信件也可以用钢笔、圆珠笔甚至彩色笔,但不宜用铅笔。不管你用什么形式书写,一些重要的信件,签名处必须用深蓝色或黑色墨水笔签名。
  (二)各类常用信件
  1)感谢信
  2)祝贺信
  3)邀请信
  4)一般信件
  5)商业信件
  6)求学信
  7)出国留学推荐信 ( recommendation letter for studying abroad )
  随着我国出国留学生日年增多一般,大部分学生需要在出国前让自己的老师、导师或领导写一份出国推荐信,从而可以在信中告知对方学校申请人的学历、能力、为人处世等方面的情况。如果推荐信是写给对方某某人的,开头用 dear… ,如果是写给对方单位或学校的,则开头可以用to whom it may concern, 或to whom it may concern,(意为:有关负责人)。

  英文书信一般格式
  英文书信的构成可分为8个部分:
  信头(Heading), 日期(Date), 收信人姓名及地址(Inside Name and Address), 称呼(Salutation), 信文(Body of the letter), 结束语(Complimentary close), 署名(Signature), 附言(P. S.)
  信头(Heading)
  信头是指发信人的单位名称或地址。一般情况下发信人只需把自己的地址写(打字,手写均可)在信的右上角,离开信纸的顶头约1英寸,占二三行或四行均可,格式如下:①齐头式 ②缩进式
  注意:写地址的次序与中文不同,应先写门牌号码街道,然后城市和国名。写地址时采用齐头或缩进式,以及每行后要不要加标点符号,都没有固定的规定。如写给经常往来的亲友,这项地址也可以省略。
  日期(Date):
  写日期注意下列各点:①年份应写全,例如不能用"99"来代替"1999";②月份应写英文名称,除May, July外,可用缩写,如:Sep., Oct.。但不要用数字来代替,如7/4/99 或7, 4, 99,因为在英国此日期代表 7th April,1999,而美国则代表4th July,1999。 ③日期可用1,2,3,4 11,12 21,22 31等,也可用lst,2nd,3rd,4th 11th,21th 22nd 31st等。
  日期的几种写法:a.July 7,1998 b.1st October, 1998 c.30 Nov., 1997 d.Sep. 3rd, 1999
  ④特别注意英文书信日期应紧接着写信人地址下一行,不能像写中文书信那样写在书信签名之后,这是很多学生的常见错误。
  收信人姓名及地址(Inside Name and Address)
  写信人的地址和日期写好以后,接着就要写收信人的姓名和地址,一般的事务信件或给较生疏的朋友的信件要写,而在给极熟的朋友的信中则可省去。这一项写在日期下一行的左上角。收信人姓名写一行,收信人地址可分两行或三行写,和写信人的地址一样,上下可取齐,也可以向右缩进。在姓名前一般要加上称号,称号因人而异。
  ①对普通男子用Mr;②对未婚女子用Miss;③对已婚女子用Mrs,对婚姻状况不明确的通常用Ms(后跟本人姓);
  ④对男子用Master;⑤对教授或博士(医生)用Prof.或Dr.
  称呼(Salutation)
  称呼指的是信文开头的那种称呼,如Dear , Mr, Uncle,各种称呼因人而异。在称呼后面一般是用逗号,但也有用冒号的。现归纳如下:①对父母、兄弟、姐妹等;a.Father, b.My dear Mother, c. Dear Sister, d. Dear Tom,
  ②对亲戚:a.My dear Auntie, b.Dear Cousin, c.My dear Cousin,
  ③对朋友、同学a.My dear friend, b.Dear Mr Jackson, c.My dear Mr Jackson, d.Dear Sir,
  ④对未婚女子:a.Dear Miss Luce, b.My dear Miss Luce,
  ⑤对一般女子,不论是否结婚:a.Madame, b.Dear Madame,
  ⑥对已婚女子:a.Dear Mrs Helen Jackson, b.My dear Mrs Helen Jackson,
  ⑦对公司、工厂、学校等:a.Dear Sirs, b.Sirs, c.Gentlemen,
  信文(Body of the letter)
  信文是信件的主体部分,也就是信的内容。正文应在称呼下两行开始。信的开头第一个字母通常和称呼开头第一个词平齐。也有往后退四个或八个字母的。下面介绍一些开头语和结尾语。
  开头语
  ①相当于中文的"敬君者"。
  a.I beg to inform you that
  b.I beg to take this opportunity to inform you that
  c.I have the honor to address you that
  d. I write in a hurry to inform you that
  e.I have the pleasure to tell you that
  f. I"m very much delighted to inform you that
  ②相当于中文的"接读某月某日来信,一切知悉"。
  a.I thank you very much for your letter of May 20th
  b.Your letter of May 20th has been received with thanks.
  c.It gives me great pleasure to receive your kind of May 20th.
  d.In answer to your kind letter of May 20th, I deeply regret that
  e.I have received your kind letter of May 20th.
