(5)結(jié)束語(yǔ)和謙稱
在信的結(jié)尾處發(fā)信人對(duì)收信人往往使用一種謙稱。這部分寫(xiě)在正文下面一至兩行處,一般在信紙中間或偏右的地方寫(xiě)起,首字母要大寫(xiě),末尾用“,”。常用謙詞有:
Yours truly, Truly yours, Faithfully yours, Yours faithfully, Respectfully yours, Yours respectfully, Yours lovingly, Yours, Yours ever等。
(6)發(fā)信人簽名
信末的簽名一般低于結(jié)束用語(yǔ)一至兩行,從信紙中間偏右的地方寫(xiě)起。一般要簽全名,除非是自己十分熟悉或親密的人。有時(shí),還要寫(xiě)上發(fā)信人的職務(wù)或頭銜。
另外,有時(shí)信中還有附件,這時(shí)要在信的左下角注明Encl(enclosure)或Enc.,如:
Enc. Drive License附駕駛執(zhí)照
如果在寫(xiě)完信后,又有需要補(bǔ)充的內(nèi)容,可在左下方寫(xiě)P. S. (postscript) 。
