Title: Helping with grammar and spelling in a letter [Lock please]
Post by: Metrapoler on February 17, 2008, 06:45:18 pm
hello tog@ther,
I need your help. I am from germany and I am going to do an exchange with somebody in the USA. I have to write an e-mail now and would like to ask you, if you could help me  :D .

Hi Jon,
I’ve already told you, that I would like to ask some questions about the exchange.
Maybe you know that we have a break for 3 days in N.Y. and I would like to ask you if you now when the shops will be open in N.Y. at eastern. I need to know the days Saturday and Sunday. I think Sunday the shops will be closed, but I dunno yet.
My second question is, if there are some outlet stores near to you, because I would like to buy clothes in the USA, because of the good exchange from Euro to Dollar and clothes are just cheaper in the USA.
My last one is, if you are going to come to Germany.

Well these questions are just to check some things before coming to you.
If you have any questions to me, you can ask every time.

Yours,
Peter

So, I think that this letter is very very bad :/. I hope you can help me :D

greez,
Metropoler

<- Not so bad, but if you want to do it perfect, change to "Don't Know"

Dear Jon,
            I’ve already informed you, that I would like to ask some questions about the exchange.
You may already know that we have a break for 3 days in N.Y. I would like to ask you if you know when the shops will be open in N.Y. on Saturdays and Sundays at eastern European time? I think that on Sunday, the shops are closed in N.Y. but I am not sure.
My second question is, are there any outlet stores near to you?, because I would like to buy clothes from N.Y., because of the good exchange rate from Euro to Dollar so the clothes will be cheaper for me.
My last question is, are you coming to Germany?

Well these questions are just to check some things before coming to you.
If you have any questions for me, feel free to ask.

Yours sincerely,
Peter

Ah, before locking.

Trojan, I don't think you're supposed to have the spaces below "dear jon". because if you do, not only does it look, well, odd. But I think it would be incorrect, but I can't be sure as I'm not specialized in writing letters  :redface:

In real letters, you do leave the space below the Dear/To area.
