1、【最新整理,下载后即可编辑】英文书信格式及范例大汇总英文书信结构要素(1)信头(Letterhead)。信头包括发信人的地址和发信日期。很多人不太注意保留信封,在信内的打上发信人地址就方便收信人回信。如果使用已经印好信头的信纸,就只要打上发信日期。信头位于信的最上方,原则上首先按从小到大的顺序(正好与中文书信相反),门牌号码和街名或单位名占一行(太长可占两行),城镇名和邮政编码占一行,国名占一行。然后是发信日期,它是信头的最后一行,可以写成日月年(英式)也可写成月日年(美式),如:May8,1996 或 8May,1996.必然说明的是,月份要写英文名称,否则有可能产生歧义,如 5/8/199
2、6,美国人会理解为1996年5 月8 日,而英国人则理解为1996年8 月5 日。(2)封内地址(Inside Address)。封内地址包括收信人的姓名和地址。封内地址必须和信封地址一致,否则就是出了差错,收信人此时可将信退回或按封内地址转寄。封内地址的第一行是收信人姓名,第二行职务,从第三行开始写收信人地址,写出法原则上和写发信人地址一样。(3)称呼(Salutation)。称呼应与亲近程度相吻合。最为正式的也是最不亲近的称呼为 Dear Sir(英国用)或Dear Genteman(美国用),一般用于给政府机关、官员的公函中,或用于首次往来的商业书信中。【最新整理,下载后即可编辑】比较熟
3、识的人由应称他的姓,最随便也是最亲近的称呼是直呼其名,一般用于亲朋好友,但应注意,称姓时只称姓,不要又称名,而称名时不要加 Dr 或 Mr.如某人全名为 William.另外,如果对方为女性却不知应称Mrs.还是Miss时可称Ms.。称呼后面的标点英国人习惯用逗号,而美国人习惯用冒号(亲朋好友之间可用逗号)。(4)正文(Body)。正文是信的主体,和中文书信的要求一样,正文的内容要主题突了出、层次清楚、语言简洁、表达准确。如果正文很长需要几张信纸联页时,则应在每张联页左上端都注明页数和收信人名称,如:Mr.WilliamJ.Hall(5)结束语(Complimentary Close)。结束语
4、是习惯的客套用语,它必须和前面的称呼遥相呼应。如果前面称 Dear Sir,则应选择下列结束语:Very simcerely yours,Vedry respecrfully yours,Very truly yours,Sincerely yours 或 Yours sincedrely,Respe-crfullky yours 或Yours respecrfullyFaithfully yours 或 Yours faith-fully.如果前面称姓,则应选择下列是结束语:Sincerely yours 或 Yours sincerely,Truly yours 或 Yokkurs tru
5、ly,Yours ever.如果前面称名,则表示写信人与收信人的关系亲近友好,应选择下列结束语:SincerelyYours,Love,All my love.(6)签名和发信人姓名(Signaturd and Name Addresser)。签名因为是亲笔手写,可能不好辩认,因此必须还要打印出来。签名只需签姓名,不需加 Mr.或 Mrs.,以及学位头衔等,但打印姓名时,因为中文名没有性别之分,所以中文拼音名前就加 Mr.或 Mrs.,Miss.,Ms.,以便收信人辨认,英文名男【最新整理,下载后即可编辑】性不必加 Mr.,但女性要加 Mrs.,Miss.,Ms.,打印名后面可加学位头衔等。一
6、封完整的英文书信必须依序包含上述六个要素。如果信件有附件并有必要提醒收信人,可在第六个要素之后加上附件注记(Enclosure 或 Encl.)。如果整封信写好后又发现遗漏了什么,可在附件注记之后加上又启(Postscript)或其缩写(P.S.)进行补充。I信封的格式MsWangXiaolan15HuaihaiStreetShanghai210088ChinaStampPeterBrown【最新整理,下载后即可编辑】22,BlachpoolRoadSydney2140Australia1)写信人的姓名、地址写在信封正面的左上角。2)收信人的姓名、地址写在信封正面中央稍偏右的地方。3)邮票贴在
7、信封的右上角。4)地址的写法是先写收信人或寄信人的姓名,然后按照从小到大顺序依次写出门牌号、街道、城市、省或州名、邮编,最后写国名。5)收信人名前应根据需要加:Mr(先生)、Mrs(太太、夫人)、Miss(小姐)、Ms(女士,已婚或未婚均可)、Dr(博士)、Prof(教授)等称呼,以示礼貌。有些中国学生给老师写信常用teacher作为称呼,这种用法不正确。在英语中teacher就跟worker,driver,farmer等一样是一种职业,不能作为称呼。男老师我们可以用Mr,女老师我们用 Mrs、Miss 或 Ms 作为称呼。【最新整理,下载后即可编辑】II信文的格式1)把寄信人的地址和日期(简
8、称信头)写在信纸的右上角。地址的写法同信封。2)把收信人的姓名、地址(简称内地址)写在寄信人地址和日期的左下方,即信纸的左边,低寄信人日期一至二行处。私人信件此项内容可以不写。3)把称呼写在收信人姓名、地址下面,相距一行处。称呼一般以Dear开头,后面用逗号。如无内地址,可以把称呼向上顺移。4)书信正文从称呼下一行的 3 至 5 个字母开始。5)如同汉语信一样,英文信的结尾也常写有祝好、盼来信、代向问好之类的话,我们称之为结束语。6)在信的结尾下面签上自己的姓名。除了对熟人或亲密的人以外,签名必须写全姓名,而且不管什么信件,都应由写信人亲笔签名。15HuaihaiStreet【最新整理,下载后

12、】英语信件的种类比较多,有一般信件,邀请信,推荐信等。但几乎所有信件的格式都大同小异。书写英语信件要注意下面几点:(一)英语书信结构、书写款式及要求:1书信结构英语书信结构一般有以下几个部分组成:1)信封(envelope)。英语的信封和中文的一样,有三部分组成,即发信人地址、收信人地址和邮票。只不过英语信封的格式除了邮票所贴的位置(信封的右上角)和中文的一样外,英语信封上要写的发信人和收信人的地址和中文的大不一样。发信人的地址应写在信封的左上角,收信人的地址应写在信封偏中右偏下处,如下:Liu Yan-huaRoom 302,No.48,Yanan Road(M)stampShanghai,
13、20040P.R.ChinaProf.John Hill607 North Willington AvenueWest Palm Beach,Florida 33404U.S.A.2)信头(heading),即写发信人的地址和日期(右上角)。3)信内姓名地址(inside address),即写收信人的姓名和地址(左上角)。4)称呼(salutation),即写对收信人的尊称(一般用 DearMr.,;Dear Madam Helen,;Dear Miss,;Dear John,;Dear Professor Smith,等)。称呼直接写在收信人地址的正下方,中间空一至二行。称呼后面的标点一般
14、只能用【最新整理,下载后即可编辑】逗号。以上信头、信内姓名和地址三部分的结构如下:Liu Yan-huaRoom 302,No 48,Yanan Road(M)Shanghai 200040P.R.ChinaJune 22,2002Prof.John Hill 607North Willington AvenueWest Palm Beach,Florida 33404U.S.A.Dear Professor Hill,_注:如果是相当熟悉和随便的朋友之间,因为彼此都知道对方的地址,故信头和信内的地址常常省略。5)正文(body),即信件内的主要内容。正文第一句句子一般和称呼之间空一至二行。6
15、)信尾客套语(complimentary close),即写信人在信的右(或左)下角,写上表示自己对收信人一种礼貌客气的谦称。一般有 Sincerely,;Sincerelyyours,;Yours sincerely,;Friendlyyours,;Truly yours,;Yours truly,;Cordially yours,;Yourscordially,等。7)信尾签名(signature),即亲笔签上写信人自己的姓名。如果是用打字机或电脑写的信,在写信人签名的上方,【最新整理,下载后即可编辑】同样应该打上写信人的姓名。除以上七个部分外,有时一些英语书信还包括:(1)附件(Encl
16、osure),以Enc.表示,如“附有。证明”应写为 EncCertificate;(2)再启(Postscript),以 P.S.表示;(3)抄送件(Carbon Copy to),以 c.c.表示,说明一式多份抄送其他有关人员。这些都是次要的补充部分。P.S.主要在私人信件中使用,事务信件中应避免使用,以免造成写信人粗心大意的印象。Enc.和 c.c.大都用在商贸信函中。2书写款式英语书信的款式一般有两种:齐头式(Block Style)和折衷式(Semi-Block Style)。齐头式常常在商贸、官方以及一些正式的信件中使用,以显示信件内容的严肃性,真实性,可靠性。而折衷式则显的比较随
17、便,主要用于家人、朋友、私人之间来往的信件。如果两人之间不是第一次通信,相互比较了解,可以省略信内的双方地址。以下分别介绍齐头式和折衷式信件两种款式。A:齐头式信件款式:(范文 1。)Liu PingBox 408Beijing UniversityBeijing 100871P.R.ChinaJuly 10,2002DirectorDept.of GeologyColumbia University【最新整理,下载后即可编辑】New York,NY,10028U.S.A.Dear Professor Sullivan,This is a request for admittance to y
