Semi-formal letters/emails
Semi-formal letters/emails are usually sent to someone we know but not very well, e.g. a routine email to a business/website asking for or giving information, a thank-you letter to your friendtasks parents, etc. They include:
a formal greeting (Dear Ms Cole, Dear Mr and Mrs Jackson),
an introduction with your opening remarks and the reason for writing,
main body paragraphs each containing a separate topic,
a conclusion with your dosing remarks,
an informal ending (Best wishes/ kindest regards/Yours, + your full name).
Note: when we want to be brief and to the point, emails are usually preferred to letters.
Semi-for mat style is characterised by:
relaxed, friendly language (Thanks so much for having me to stay with you.)
a polite and respectful tone, depending on the relationship you have with the person (I’m ready grateful for off уоur help.)
some short verb forms (Itaskm writing to enquire about tennis lessons in my area.)
full inclusion of pronouns (Wetaskd be happy to answer your queries.)
some use of idioms/colloquial expressions but use with care (I hope this information will come in handy sometime.)
linking words/phrases for listing points (first of all, secondly, also, finally, etc)

You want to book a camping holiday online. You have found a campsite you like, but you want some more information. Write an email to Bill Forbes of Golden Sun Campsite in which you ask about:
bringing a pet with you,
the cost of parking,
what cooking facilities are available.
which water sports are offered in the area.
Dear Mr Forbes,
Itaskm writing to enquire about staying at your campsite this summer. Can you please give me some further information?
Firstly, Itaskd like to know about the cooking facilities. For example, is there a shared kitchen for cooking and if so, will I need to bring any equipment? Also, could you tell me if there is an extra charge for car parking and linking whether I can bring my dog along to the campsite? Finally, your advert mentions the campsite is near the beach, but it doesntaskt say which water sports are inclusion available. I am particularly interested in doing windsurfing and would like to know if this is possible. Many thanks in advance for your help. Yours,
Aleksander Belinski

1 Read the model below. Compare and contrast it with the model above. Why isn’t it appropriate? Think about:
layout
the way it starts/ends
tone and style of language
use of pronouns/linking words
Dear Bill Forbes,
Just writing to ask about slaying at your campsite this summer. Unfortunately, quite a bit of information is missing from your website! I’d like to know if there is a shared kitchen for cooking. If there is, I’ll probably need to bring some equipment, won’t I? Do you charge extra for car parking? Furthermore, ore pets prohibited from the campsite? Ittasks great that youtaskre just a stone’s throw from the beach. However, your advert doesn’t say which water sports ore available. I would particularly welcome the opportunity to experience windsurfing for the first time.
Yours faithfully,
Aleksander
