第五篇：商務(wù)信函

商務(wù)信函.txt我退化了，到現(xiàn)在我還不會游泳，要知道在我出生之前，我絕對是游的最快的那個商務(wù)信函書信是日常生活中常用的文體，是用以交涉事宜、傳達(dá)信息、交流思想、聯(lián)絡(luò)感情、增進了解的重要工具。書信一般可分為商務(wù)信件或公函（Business Letter or Official Correspondence）和私人信件（Private Letter）兩大類。值得注意的是，英語書信的寫法與漢語書信有一些明顯區(qū)別，應(yīng)特別加以區(qū)分。英語書信通常包括下面幾個組成部分：信端、信內(nèi)地址、稱呼、正文、結(jié)束語、簽名、附件、再啟等。下面我們將逐個進行介紹。

1、商務(wù)信函信端（Heading）

信端即信頭，一般包括寫信人的地址和寫信日期。一些正式信函的信端還包括發(fā)信人或單位的電話號碼、電報掛號、電傳、傳真和郵政編碼等。西方國家中有些信端甚至還有單位負(fù)責(zé)人的姓名、職務(wù)和職稱等。信端的目的是使收信人一看便知道書信來自何處，何時發(fā)出，便于復(fù)信和查閱。用一般的信紙寫信時，信端應(yīng)寫在信紙的右上角，若字?jǐn)?shù)較多，可從信紙中間或偏右的地方寫起。若字?jǐn)?shù)較少，可適當(dāng)多向右移一些，使整個信端的重心落在右上角。

商務(wù)信函信端的寫法主要有并列式和斜列式兩種。從目前情況來看，前者更為常用。采用并列式時，每行開頭要左對齊；采用斜列式時，每行開頭逐次向右移二三個字母的距離。例如：

（1）并列式Fuxing Street

Haidian DistrictBeijingPost Code: 100035People’s Republic of ChinaTel: 63211234

Aug.20, 200

4（2）斜列式（Indented Form）Fuxing Street

Haidian District

Beijing

Post Code: 100035

People’s Republic of China

Tel: 63211234

Aug.20, 2004

寫信端時，先寫發(fā)信人的地址，地點的名稱按由小到大的順序排列，然后是其它項目和發(fā)信日期。具體次序是：第一行寫門牌號和街名；第二行寫區(qū)名、市（縣）名、?。ㄖ?、邦）名，往國外寄的信，還要寫上國家的名稱；國家名稱的前面加上郵政編碼，其后可寫上電話號碼，最后一行寫發(fā)信日期。如果寫信人的地址是機關(guān)單位的名稱，則將其作為第一行。如果寫信人的單位沒有門牌號碼和街名，則第一行可寫上所在班級或?qū)I(yè)組的名稱；第二行寫系、科、室名稱；第三行寫學(xué)校名稱；第四行寫市（縣）、?。ㄖ荩┟Q；然后再寫郵政編碼、國名、電話號碼、發(fā)信日期等項。

如果使用標(biāo)點符號，則在每行末尾加逗號，最后一行的末尾加句號。但當(dāng)前的信件中行末大都不加標(biāo)點符號，但在每行之內(nèi)該用標(biāo)點符號的地方，仍要用標(biāo)點。特別要注意的是，門牌號碼和街名之間要加逗號。月份和日期之間不可用逗號。在西方國家，城市名稱之后往往寫有字母或數(shù)字（如 New York, 103），表示城市的郵政編碼。

關(guān)于發(fā)信日期的寫法，應(yīng)注意以下幾點：

①年份應(yīng)完全寫出，不能簡寫。

②月份要用英文名稱，不要用數(shù)字代替。

③月份名稱多用公認(rèn)的縮寫式。但 May, June, July, 因為較短，不可縮寫。

④寫日期時，可用基數(shù)詞1，2，3，4，5，??28，29，30，31等，也可用序數(shù)詞 lst, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, ??28th, 29th, 30th, 31lst等。但最好用基數(shù)詞，簡單明了。

日期可有下列幾種寫法：

① Oct.20, 2004

② 10 May., 2004

③ 3rd June, 2004

④ Sept.16th, 2004

其中，①最為通用。

2、商務(wù)信函信內(nèi)地址（Inside Address, Introductory Address）

信內(nèi)地址收信人的姓名和地址，寫在信紙的左上角，從信紙的左邊頂格開始寫，低于寫信人地址和發(fā)信日期一二行，也分并列式和斜列式兩種，但應(yīng)與信端的書寫格式保持一致。其次序是，先寫收信人姓名、頭銜和單位名稱，占一二行，然后寫地址，可占二至四行，例如：

①并列式

Ms.Joanna Kerry

Peking University

Haidian District, 100871

Beijing

China

②斜列式

Ms.Joanna Kerry

Peking University

Haidian District,100871

Beijing

China

3.商務(wù)信函稱呼（Salutation）

對收信人的稱呼應(yīng)自成一行，寫在低于信內(nèi)地址一二行的地方，從信紙的左邊頂格開始寫，每個詞的開頭字母要大寫，至于末尾處的符號，英國人用逗號，但美國和加拿大英語則多用冒號。稱呼用語可視寫信人與收信人的關(guān)系而定。給外國人寫英文信時，稱呼用語要注意以下幾點：

①對沒有頭銜的男性一般稱呼 Mr.。Mr.用在姓氏之前或姓氏和名字之前，不可只用在名字之前，例如對的稱呼，應(yīng)該是：Mr.或 Mr.White, 不可是：Mr.Phil。若稱呼多個男性，則在姓名前用 Mr.的復(fù)數(shù)形式 Messrs.。對一般以人名為名稱的公司和企業(yè)常用這種稱呼，例如：Messrs.Black and Brothers 布萊克兄弟公司。

②對女性一般稱呼 Mrs.，Madam 或 Miss。Mrs.用在已婚女子的丈夫的姓氏之前，或姓氏和名字之前，一般不用在名字前 Madame 此詞可以單獨使用或加在丈夫的姓名之前 Mrs.沒有復(fù)數(shù)形式。若稱呼多個女性，則在姓名前用 Mme.的復(fù)數(shù)形式 Mmes.而對以女子名字為名稱的公司、企業(yè)可用 Mesdames 稱呼。Miss 多用于未婚女子，此詞可縮寫為 Ms，用于姓氏之前或姓氏和名字之前，一般不用于名字之前。

③對收信人的稱呼，也可用頭銜或職位的名稱，不分性別。例如 Professor（縮寫為 Prof.），Doctor（縮寫為 Dr.），General(縮寫為 Gen.)。這些稱呼都放在姓氏之前或姓氏和名字之前，如 Prof.（Phil）White等。

④對外公函中對收信人的稱呼，可用 Gentlemen（而不是 Gentleman），Dear Sir(s)和 My dear Sir(s)等。Gentlemen 之前不能加 Dear，后面也不能帶姓名。用 Sirs 時，前面常用 Dear 一詞，但也可單獨用 Sir。若收信人是婦女，則無論已婚或未婚，都可單獨使用 Madam 或其復(fù)數(shù) Mesdames。

⑤對外國高級官員的稱呼，如國家元首、政府首腦、部長、大使、公使和特使等，可用（Dear）Sir，（Dear）Mr.Chairman，（Dear）Mr.Premier，（My dear）Mr.Ambassador，Your Excellency（復(fù)數(shù)為 Excellencies）。

⑥對君主制國家的國王和皇帝等男性君主，可以 Sir 稱呼，對女王、女皇和皇后等女性君主，可用 Madam 稱呼。有時也用 Your Majesty 稱呼以表示?？蜌夂妥鹁碮our Majesty 可兼指男性和女性，其復(fù)數(shù)為 Your Majesties。

⑦對王室成員，如太子、王子、親王和公主等，一般可用（Dear）Sir 或（Dear）Madam 但在正式尊稱時，一般用 Your Highness(復(fù)數(shù)為 Highnesses)。

6.簽名（Signature）

信末的簽名一般低于結(jié)束語一二行，從信紙中間偏右的地方開始寫。若寫信人是女性，與收信人又不相識，則一般在署名前用括號注上 Miss, Mrs.或 Ms.，以便對方回信時知道如何稱呼。有的還有署名后寫上自己的職稱、職務(wù)或頭銜

7.附件（Enclosure）

信件若有附件，應(yīng)在左下角注明 Encl.或 Enc.。若附件不止一個，則應(yīng)寫出2（或3，4，5等）Encls.，例如：

9.私人和公務(wù)信函--注意事項

首先，寫信者應(yīng)設(shè)身處地想到對方，尊重對方的風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣。

其次，英文信應(yīng)該行文流暢、言簡意賅，避免冗長。這就是說，寫信者應(yīng)用盡可能少的文字表達(dá)其必須傳遞的信息，而且寫信者應(yīng)將其所需傳遞的信息表達(dá)清楚，以免對方產(chǎn)生誤解。書信交往，同樣需要以禮待人。因而在寫信過程中，要避免傷害對方感情，措辭上多選用些禮貌婉轉(zhuǎn)詞語。

最后，除了避免語法、拼寫、標(biāo)點錯誤外，信中所引用的史料、數(shù)據(jù)等也應(yīng)準(zhǔn)確無誤.私人和公務(wù)信函--常用句式。常用的起首語有：
