Beginning your letter (salutation) Dear Mr/Mrs/Ms + famil name,
(use Ms when you do not know if the woman is married or not)
Dear Sir/Madam (if you do not know the name)
Dear Sir or Madam (if you do not know if you are writing to a man or a woman)
Giving the reason for your letter First paragraph (start with a capital letter):
I have been informed that you ... / I would like to respond to / reply to ...
I am writing to ask whether ... / to say that ... / to comment on ...
Coming to the end of your letter I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
Finishing your letter (closing phrase) Yours sincerely (you know the person's name)
or: Yours faithfully (you do not know the person's name)
