英文写作技巧
1.人家的名字千万不要错.老一辈的看到名字错就干脆撵去垃圾桶. 同样, 头衔都不要错. 头衔或学位,任择其一吧.以下是一样的: Howard E. Wyatt, D.D.SPhD. Dr. Howard E. Hyatt
2.多过一个男人,用Messrs,就是Misters的意思,不过不要跟名字,跟姓就行啦.例如: Messrs. Smith, Wyatt, and Fury ,英文写作技巧(2)。女人呢? 用Mesdames, Mmes., or Mses. 同样不要跟名字. 例子: Mses. Farb, Lionel, and Gray 。男女一齐呢? 弄清晰称呼就行.例如: Dr. and Mrs. Harold Wright ;Mr. Harold Wright and Dr. Margaret Wright ;Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Adams-Quinn 。
3.有人有自己头衔就要跟紧,例如有人有荣誉学位就不喜爱用一般的头衔啊~有时大头不知道对方头衔,干脆用Ms.算了. Ms. Sarah Gray
4.地址要低日期至少两行.处名时,职衔短可以一行过,长就下一行吧.例如:
Ken Green, President /Ken Green /Vice President of International Operations
但这个就显得有点。。。:
Ken Green /Vice President of Unicom China
正确应为:
Ken Green /Vice President, Unicom China
5.老外的名字有时有Jr. 或 Sr.,之前的逗点是随你喜爱的,以下都是正确,不要笑人:
Michael J. Smith, Jr. /Michael J. Smith Sr.
6.外国国名尽量用大写.是为敬重,也便利邮差叔叔.
7.地址上的数字直接用阿拉伯数字吧,除了One,例子:
127 Ninth Avenue, North
127 E. 15 Street
垃圾桶 英文5 Park Avenue
One Wingren Plaza
556 - 91 Street
结尾局部
书信的结尾致意要留意,弄清大家的关系才选择用词,例子: 1. Very Formal特别正规的'(例如给政府大老爷的)
Respectfully yours, Yours respectfully,
2. Formal正规的(例如客户公司之间啦)
Very truly yours, Yours very truly, Yours truly,
3. Less Formal不太正规的(例如客户)
Sincerely yours, Yours sincerely, Sincerely, Cordially yours, Yours cordially, Cordially,
4. Informal非正规的(例如猪朋狗友,同事之类)
Regards, Warm regards, With kindest regards, With my best regards, My best, Give my best to Mary, Fondly, Thanks, See you
next week!
有时在we, I, and you之间选择是很烦的事-- 假设是公司代表联络生意之类,可以用: We will reimburse you for these legal expenses. Sinopec will reimburse you for these legal expenses. 假设单纯说你自己,可以用: I found the brochure very informative. 有时可以一起用啦...: We are pleased to offer you the position of sales director, and I am looking forward to our Tuesday morning meeting.
那么I和you呢?好烦好烦.一般来说,收信人的利益比拟重要,名义上都要这样想.给人敬重的语气就一般不会错了. 多用you有时会有隔膜的感觉.
You will be pleased
