[영어 이메일] 비지니스 이메일에서 반드시 지켜야 할 것

by 키다 2020. 7. 27.

영어로 이메일을 쓸 때 반드시 지켜야 할 3가지 요소는 다음과 같습니다.

1. conciseness ( 간결성)
2. clarity(명확성)
3. corherence(일관성)

목적에 충실하고 명확하며 일관성 있게 쓰면 됩니다. 간단한 인사 정도는 괜찮지만 너무 서론이 장황하면 좋지 않겠죠?

쉽게 찾아보기 쉬운 표현들을 아래에 정리해 보았습니다. 

쓰기 전략 Don't Do

- 길고 장황하게 쓴다

- 수동형 문장을 쓴다

- 명령조의 표현을 쓴다

- 명확하고 간략하게 쓴다

- 능동형 문장을 쓴다

- 예의 바른 표현을 쓴다
