英文便条的写作方法

  英文便条的写作方法(一)

  一、概述

  便条也是书信的一种形式。它的特点是内容简短,主要有临时性的询问、留言、通知、要求等。跟正规书信相比,便条的语言比较口头化,比如要通知某事只需这样开头:Just a line to tell you that ...而无须像正规书信那样This is to inform you that ...开头。另外,在便条中常出现省略现象,例如: key to back door is under mat. 或者 key to back door under mat . 代之以 The key to the back door is under the mat. 。

  结束时也无需结尾礼词,只需写上写便条者姓名。如果是关系比较近的人,则只需写上姓或名。

  便条的日期通常写在右上角。一般只写上星期几或者星期几上午或下午,也可写上午、下午的具体时刻。日常应用中,写上几月几日的也很普遍。但一般不写年份,因为便条的内容多半是当日或近日内要办的事情。写便条时,不得事先准备,因此无固定格式,大多用手写。

  二、注意事项

  1.词句简洁,尽量避免应酬语和各种敬词

  2.切忌内容空洞、言不达意。

  三、分类举例

  1)请假(Asking for Leave)

  例1

  Directions: You are about to write a Business Leave Note of about 100 words. Please describe this information clearly.

  便条可以有题目,也可以省略题目。

  便条开篇须有称呼语,但称呼可以比较随便。

  日期部分可写在便条的右上角。

  日期的签署通常只需写星期几或星期几的上午、下午,也可只写上午或下午和具体时间。只写日期也可以。

  便条结尾须署上留条人的姓名,位置在正文的右下角。

  便条的形式和内容简洁,故可以用几句话概括。

  文内语言尽量通俗口语化,简单扼要,直截了当,无需使用客套语言。

  便条虽简单,但中心务必突出,更要注明活动的时间及地点。

  便条不需邮寄,不用信封。通常请人代为转交。有时可写在留言板和留言簿上。

  基本写作格式

  便条内容和类型不尽相同,可以灵活变通。但各类便条必须包括以下几个基本要素;1)Date:便条日期2)Salutation:称呼3)Body:正文 4)Signature:署名

  请假条:往往指由于生病或特殊情况不能亲自当面请假,用假条的形式告假。所以,请假条大多是病假条。可以自写,也可请他人代写。写假条最重要的是说明原因和请假的期限。
