TOPIC IX. OFFICIAL AND SEMI-OFFICIAL LETTERS.
1. WRITING LETTERS IN ENGLISH
The modern tendency in letter-writing is the tendency of using colloquial or conversational style,
though where the formal style is required (official letters, private letters of semi-official character,
etc.) the established phraseology, lexical patterns and grammar form of diplomatic correspondence
are used.
An informal style is more appropriate for non-formal communications. The essential qualities of
all letters, business letters included, can be summed in "three C's": (1) Concise (2) Clear and (3)
Courteous.
