What to Focus On

  • Letters are a written means of communication.
  • There are two main types of letters: formal and informal.
  • Formal letters serve official and civic purposes.
  • Purpose decides the content and shape of the letter.
  • The addressee affects the tone and format.
  • Formal letters should be complete and concise.
  • A formal letter has a fixed and professional format.
  • Letterheads may show the company name and designation.
  • A subject line appears just above the salutation.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

All letters have the same format, so the same opening, tone, and ending can be used everywhere.

A formal letter can begin with any friendly salutation, such as Dear Sujata or Dear friend.

In informal letters, the sender’s name goes in the top right-hand corner with the address.
