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.
(1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。
(2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。
