The message here mainly refers to a paragraph written to others as a souvenir or to encourage the other party. Generally speaking, it is mainly suitable for private communication occasions, especially between close relatives and friends.
The ancients once said, "Giving people words is more important than stones and pearls." . There are at least four problems that should not be underestimated if gifts really play their due role in interpersonal communication.
1, the content of the message
The content of information is its center. When determining its specific content, it must be tailored to people, events and times. In particular, we should focus on understanding each other's gender, age, occupation, identity, hobbies, experiences and the current situation of our relationship with each other. Only in this way can the gift be "targeted".
Specifically, you'd better think twice about the content of the message, think again and again, don't get cold feet and write at will. It is generally believed that the content of a message must meet the following three requirements. In addition, you can quote other people's sentences or create your own.
(1) Elegant taste
When writing a message, you should avoid low-style, low-level, vulgar, depressed and decadent content, or black, yellow, coarse and dirty.
If you choose the right content, which is refreshing, unique and refined, inspiring and inspiring, it will not only make the message read tastefully, but also make the questioner look impressive.
(2) Mental health
If you give it to others, you should have not only artistic content, but also ideological content. A good message should be full of true feelings. It not only reflects the writer's ideological level, but also reflects the writer's personal judgment on the receiver's ideological situation.
For example, it goes without saying that people who give others "muddled" books have low ideological level, and from the perspective of the recipient, they may also have a bad feeling of being regarded as someone who sees through the world of mortals.
(3) having substance in speech
Good writing usually comes from the heart, is true and natural, and has substance in words. When writing a message to others, don't moan or make it up. I'd rather make it short and interesting than make it long, but it's empty. In a sense, concentrating information content to make it shorter than longer is one of the prerequisites for writing good information.
2, the form of information
In concrete form, there are many choices for giving words. When writing information to people and choosing its specific form, we need to comprehensively consider three points. First, what do you want to express, whether the two are coordinated, and the gift format. Second, whether I am good at this form, I must not be forced. Third, whether this form is applicable, that is, whether the recipient likes it, whether there are any specific difficulties in writing, and so on.
In general, there are five common forms of leaving messages, from which you can choose goodwill when writing messages.
(1) motto
Most aphorisms are tempered and concise. As long as it is quoted properly, it can give people useful enlightenment. A gift with a motto is to give a book with a motto directly to others. The motto can be borrowed from the ancients or slightly modified, but it is not appropriate to copy it completely.
(2) Noun sentence patterns
Courtesy of famous sentences refers to the direct use of famous sayings or famous sentences in famous books as gifts. Choosing this form can not only teach people tirelessly, but also avoid the suspicion of being a teacher by example.
(3) Poetic style
Poetic gift is to quote and write poems for others. This kind of gift form is quite infectious, but not everyone is good at it. People who don't know the rhythm of poetry should never give poetry to others casually.
(4) Dual form
Double ceremony, also known as couplet ceremony. Obviously, it refers to the concrete form of taking antithetical sentences as gifts. Generally, it is neat, catchy and easy to remember, and it is very popular with the people.
(5) Formula
The so-called formula gift, that is, the specific content of the gift, appears in the form of a similar formula. This form is relatively new and will leave a very deep impression on people.
3, the format of the message
In terms of specific content, any well-written gift should usually include the main content of the gift, the name of the recipient, the reason for giving the book, the name of the giver, the time of giving the book and so on.
The name of the recipient and the reason for the gift are called the first paragraph of the gift, and the name and time of the giver are called the second paragraph of the gift. Both can be omitted when writing a message, or both can be omitted at the same time.
No matter how much or how little the specific content is when writing a message, it can be divided into horizontal and vertical formats.
(1) horizontal style
A horizontal line message is about to be written. When writing specifically, generally, the name of the donee and the reason for the gift should be written in the upper left box, the reason for the gift should be written in the middle of the next line, and the name and time of the giver should be written in the lower right of the former.
In daily communication, horizontal gifts are the most commonly used.
(2) Vertical type
The format of the message, that is, writing the message vertically. The specific method is: write down the name of the book recipient and the reason for giving the book from top to bottom in the box at the top right, then write down the book giving subject from top to bottom and from right to left, and finally write down the name and time of giving the book from top to bottom in the lower left of the former.
This format is more suitable for non-governmental communication, especially when dealing with the elderly and overseas Chinese. When using poetry, it is better to use vertical style.
4. Gift utensils
When writing messages, don't be careless about the tools you use. Under the premise of what you can, try to make your pen and paper conform to the routine.
(1) pen tool
When writing a message, in order to save the handwriting, it is best to choose one from the brush, pen and signature pen according to your personal situation. In general, it is best not to use pencils, crayons or ballpoint pens first. In addition, remember not to use two different types of pens or two different colors of ink to write the same information.
If you are good at calligraphy, you'd better write a message with a brush first, but if you are not good at it, don't be forced.
Write down the information with a pen, preferably in ink or blue-black ink. Do not use pure blue ink that is not suitable for keeping handwriting, or red, green and purple ink with too bright colors.
(2) Paper
Generally speaking, information is written on a certain size of paper. The paper used to write information should be clean, smooth, folding-resistant and able to absorb ink. It is usually inappropriate to leave a message on dirty, rough and broken paper.
In many cases, information can be written in books, photo albums, diaries, postcards and photos. You can also write in the place designated by the donee. For example, some people like to have messages written on handkerchiefs, silks, paintings, clothes and hats.
When writing a message, you should fully consider the size of the paper. Do not modify it or omit it. Still beyond the "ruling area". Mistakes should be avoided.
