Transactional Letters
TRANSACTIONAL LETTERS
-What is a transactional letter?
Transactional
letters or emails which responded to written information. You use the
transactional letters when you are writing notes, letters, invitations,
advertisement, etc.
The
style of writing can be formal, semi-formal or informal, depending on who you
are writing to.
It very
important to include all the factual information given in the rubric.
-What are the steps when writing a
transactional letter?
When
you writing (transactional letter) you have to consider the following steps.
1. GET OFF TO A GOOD START
Is
important that you have clear your objective and style that you will need
to use.
2. PLANNING
You have remember that you only can use 120-150 words,
Take advantage of this and use the extra time for planning.
There are three things to consider when you are
thinking about a plan:
- The
question.
- The
original letter or email.
- The
handwritten notes.
This is very important to write well and consistently.
3. DECIDING
ON PARAGRAPHS
In this
step you have to describe each paragraph and the idea in treat each of these.
You
must have:
a) A very short opening paragraph
b) The first main paragraph
c) The second main paragraph
d) The ending
You have to
develop clear ideas so that the message is correct
4. USING YOUR OWN WORDS
Is more easy when you are using
your own words because you are demonstrative that your vocabulary and your
grammar is more wide and that you have a control of topic or a conversation in
general.
5. CHOOSING THE RIGHT STYLE
You have to take into account the
need to use the style appropriate for writing either a letter or an email.
You have to take into account the
following tracks so that communication does not lose meaning:
a) Use short forms like isn’t, won’t, it’s, I’ve instead of is not, will
not, it is, I have, etc.
b) Sometimes miss out words in a sentence - In letter writing, it is
often quite common to miss out the word ‘I’.
c) Use informal intensifiers – In spoken English, we often use words
like really and incredibly meaning really nice, really good. We often also use some of the more extreme
intensifier + adjective combinations such as completely fantastic, absolutely
awful, etc
d) Use simple vocabulary - In English there is often a choice between a
simpler word or phrasal verb and a longer more complex word.
6. CHECK AND CORRECT
I think that this step is the
most important because you have check the grammar and all the letter or email
for see that all are well and correct the mistakes before send the letter or
email.
Is important that check the preposition go back and check each one
carefully for don't have errors.
( I THINK IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP OF ALL. )
3. What is the most important information that you
should take into account at the time of writing a transactional letter?
I think that the more important the steps six because is the summary of
the all writing and you have checked your mistakes and correct the necessary
for the letter or email are spelled correctly.
