Viết thư xin học bổng bằng tiếng Anh
1. Cách viết thư xin học bổng bằng tiếng Anh
1/ Mở đầu: Dear + tên người nhận
Một bức thư tiếng Anh không chỉ có nội dung hay mà hình thức cũng phải đúng bài bản . Văn phong trang trọng trong tiếng Anh cần tránh những lỗi thông dụng mà nhiều người hay mắc phải :
– Viết tắt . Ví dụ : “I’m Nguyen Van A” , “I don’t know much” , “I can’t see the name” , “I’m studying in Hanoi Univ.” …
– Thiếu các cách dùng từ lịch sự , lễ phép , khiêm tốn . Ví dụ nhất là nhiều bạn hay viết : “I want …” thay vì phải viết là “I would like …” hoặc “Can you …” thay vì “May you …” , “Could you …” , “Would you mind …”, “I am wondering whether you …” (có cấp độ trang trọng khác nhau, cần dùng đúng hòan cảnh).
