英文书信格式及例文
英文书信由六部分组成。即：信头（Heading），信内地址（Inside Address）,称呼（Salutation），正文（Body of Letter）,结束语（Complimentary Close）,署名（Signature）.
有时在书信后面还有附言（Postscript）,附件（Enclosure）,这得视具体情况面定。
1. 信头 （Heading）
信头是指写信人的地址和写信日期，写在或打在第一面信纸的右上角，先写地址再写日期，地址的写法是从小到大，先写门牌号、路号，再写区名、市名、省名，最后写国名。时间的写法对英国人和美国人而言是不同的。英国人习惯按日、月、年的顺序写，而美国人习惯按月、日、年的顺序写。例如： 英式：1st October, 2010 美式：October 1, 2010
在使用前一种形式时，月和年之间的逗号可用可不用，但在后一种形式中，必需要使和逗号。 信头的写法有缩进式和齐头式。缩进式每行开头向右缩进一两个字母；齐头式左边对齐排列。
2．信内地址（Inside Address）
信内地址要写出收信人的姓名和地址。给比较生疏的亲友和公事信件要写出信内地址，面熟悉朋友省去这一步骤。信内地址写在日期下一两行的左上角，第一行写收信人的称呼姓名，再写出地址，地址从小到大写出，分缩进式和齐头式两种。 缩进式
The President Oxford University England 齐头式
The President Oxford University England
3. 称呼 （Salutation）
称呼是对收信人的称谓。在信内地址下一两行处顶格写起，自成一行。末尾用逗号或冒
号。
（1） 当给一位熟悉的人写信时用Dear或是My Dear。在英国，My Dear比Dear亲切，面在美国，Dear比My Dear亲切。
（2） 当给一位你不知婚否的女性写信时，用Ms.。。。。。，这是指“。。。。。女士”。 （3） 在给不熟悉的人写信写时，用Dear sir， Dear Madam，Dear sirs等等。
4. 正文 （Body of Letter）
正文是一封信的主体部分。通常在称呼的下一行写。正文也可采用齐头式或缩进式的方法。齐头式是反映每段开头一行和后面行并齐。缩进式是指每段的第一行向右缩进几个字母，通常以五个字母为宜。信笺讲究简洁、效率。开头几句简单地寒暄后就进入正题，在结尾处要有祝愿和敬语。
常用的开头语有：
I have receive your letter of July 1st. 7月1 日来信已经收悉 I have the pleasure to tell you that……很高兴告诉你。。。。。。
I am very delighted to receive your letter. 非常高兴收到你的来信。 It is my honor to inform you that……很荣幸告诉你。。。。。。。 常用的结束套话有：
I am looking forward to hearing from you.盼早日回信。 Thank you for your help感谢你的帮助 Wish my best wishes for your success. 祝成功 Wishing you a happy holiday祝假日愉快！
Hoping to hear from you soon.希望能尽快收到你的回信。
5. 结束语(Complimentary Close)
结束语在正文之后隔一两行的偏右方开始写出。开头字母用大写，随后的单词用小写，最后一个词后面用逗号。 常用的结束语有： 非正式的关系： Y ours sincerely, Yours truly, Yours faithfully, Most sincerely, Faithfully yours,
亲密的关系：
Yours love, Yours affectionately, With love, Lovingly yours, Yours ever, 上级和长者： Yours respectfully, Faithfully yours,
Love,
6. 署名 （Signature）
低于结束语一至二行，从信纸中间偏右的地方开始，在结束语的正下方，在签完名
字的下面还要有用打字机打出的名字，以便识别。职务、职称可打在名字的下面。当然，写给亲朋好友的信，就不必再打了。
7. 附言（Postscript）
可以用P.S. 补上遗漏的话。通常在信末签名下面几行的左方，应与正文齐头。在正式的
信函中，应避免使用附言。
8. 附件（Enclosure）
信件如果有附件，可在信纸的左下角，注上Encl: 或Enc:。如果附件不止一项，应写成
Encls: 或Encs:
一般事务信函 Ordinary Business Letters 一、介绍信 Letters of Introduction

五、慰问信 Letters of Consolation
公文告启诸类 Other Kinds of English Writing 一、便条 Note 二、启示 Notice 三、海报 Poster 四、通知 Announcement 五、通告 Notification 六、布告 Public Notice 七、公告 Proclamation
关于英文书面通知的格式与写法
书面通知又称通告或布告(notice)。它是上级对下级、组织对成员部署工作、传达事情、召开会议所使用的一种文体。通告一般张贴在布告牌上，或公共场所显眼的地方。通告正文上方的正中位置写上NOTICE(每个字母都大写)。出通知的单位写在正文结束后的右下角，或者写在NOTICE的正上方。出通知的日期一般写在左下角。单位和日期两项也可以省略。通告不写称呼，也没有结束语。但在正文里，往往首先提到被通知的对象。
通告的正文就是通告的内容，这是主体部分，包括通知的对象、事由、时间、地点等，语言应简洁明了，条理清晰，要求明确，特别是时间概念很重要，必须写得十分明确，不容丝毫含糊。

Dear lawyer Chen,

Dear John,
I am eagerly looking forward to your visit to our city. After all these years of writing to each other, I cannot wait to see you. However, I regret to inform you that I will not be able to meet you at the airport on time.
The reason is that your flight will arrive early in the morning, and the earliest I can reach the airport will be about an hour after you land. Will you please wait for me in the arrival lounge? You can have breakfast while you wait. Hope we can meet soon.
Sincerely yours,
Alice

Letter of Complaint
Dear Manager,
I am writing to make a complaint about the quality of the book I bought yesterday at your book store, which I intended to send to one of my friends as a present.
However, when I looked through the book randomly at home, I was so surprised to find that there were some quality problems with it. For one thing, several pages were missed from the book, which resulted in an incompletion in information. For another, a few printing errors were not hard to find.
Therefore, I wish to return this book to your store and get my refund as soon as possible. I will appreciate it if my problem receives due attention.
Yours,
Zhangqiang
