✏️📝🇬🇧 A LETTER TO A FRIEND 🇬🇧📝✏️

📍Greeting:
To start an informal email, we write Dear (first name), / Hi (first name), / Hello (first name),
For example: 
Dear Sarah,
Hi Sarah,
Hello Sarah,

📍Introduction:
The Introduction is the first paragraph of our informal email. In this paragraph we ask about our friend’s/ relative’s wellbeing: ‘How are you?’
‘I hope you’re well.’

We can also thank him/her for a previous email: ‘Thanks for your email.’
‘I enjoyed reading your email.’
‘It was great to hear from you.’

📍Body:
The Body is the most important part of an e-mail. Here we write the main subject/s of our email, i.e. the reason we send this email, for example to talk about holidays, family, work, to cancel a meeting, to congratulate someone, to apologise, to accept an invitation etc.
Try to divide your email into short paragraphs so that it’s easy to read. Each subject you talk about should be in a separate paragraph.

📍Conclusion:
In the Conclusion we summarise the reason for writing the email and we write our closing remarks for example:
‘Say hello to your mum for me.’                
‚Keep in touch.’
‘Thanks again for your help.’                  
  ‘Write soon.’
‘I hope to hear from you soon.’

📍Signature:
Since informal emails don’t have a format, we can sign them off as we like. You can use the following expressions and then simply write your name.
‘Lots of love’                     
 ‚Best wishes’
‘Yours’                                 
‚All the best’

🇬🇧✨ CONJUNCTIONS ( spójniki ) ✨🇬🇧
