Writing letters

You may have forgotten how to begin and end letters... Here you have some basic rules for you to remember:

1. If you know the name of the person you're writng to, begin Dear + title + surname. If not, begin Dear Sir or Dear Madam.

2. Finish your letter with Yours sincerely if you know the person's name, and Yours faithfully if you don't.

3. If you are writing a letter rather than an email, print your name underneath your signature.
