帮你解决如何写好英语商务信函的问题
导读：对于正式的商务信函的书写，哪怕只是中文的，估计对很多人来说都是一个难题。要是需要写因为的商务信函问题就更大了，所以下面我们就介绍如何写好英语商务信函。
随着电子信息时代的到来，写信这种方式好像已经被大家慢慢遗忘了，对于普通朋友间的信函格式，估计都有不少人很陌生。那么如何写好英语商务信函这种问题，就完全是超级大难题了！所以下面我们就来介绍一下相关的情况吧！
对于如何写好英语商务信函，我们是有些需要注意的原则的。商业信件要简洁明了，既要注意信件的措词得体，又要符合商业信件礼貌周到的原则。写信时要注意礼节，不要盛气凌人，避免出现命令或粗鲁等不恰当的口吻。写信过程中除了多使用诸如please；your kind inquiry；I would appreciate it if you would等短语外，还需做到以下几点：语气要真诚、善解人意以及考虑周全；避免使用伤害、贬低的短语，如：your neglectful attitude；impatience；we deny your claim 等；避免使用含有性别歧视的词语，如 businessman；chairman 等。同时一定要正确，正确性不仅仅指英语语法、标点符号和拼写，更重要的是书信的内容要叙述正确，不要说过，不宜漏说略述。
商务信函的要求其实真的还挺多的，所以我们想知道如何写好英语商务信函也不是能够通过这短短的几百字就能叙述清楚的。不过对于正确性和礼貌性的注意确实是非常重要，毕竟英语不是我们的母语，对于用语的礼貌性我们是不太敏感的。更多学习内容请见美联英语学习网。
