The format of English letters:

1. Letterhead: refers to the address and date of the sender. Write in the upper right corner of the letter paper, starting near the center of the letter paper. Leave the letterhead blank. Write the sender's address first. The way to write an address is different from that in Chinese. Small places should be written first, and big places should be written later. Write the date below the address. The order of dates is: month, day, year, or: day, month, year. . There is a comma before the year.

2. Title: refers to the title of the recipient. Write below the letterhead, starting on the left side of the paper.

3. The body of the letter: refers to the main part of the letter. Write from the top of the first paragraph on the line following the title. From the second paragraph onwards, the first word of each paragraph should be indented by 3 or 5 letters.

4. Conclusion: refers to the polite words at the end below the text. It is generally written from the center of the letter paper to the right, with the first letter capitalized and a comma at the end.

5. Signature: refers to the signature of the sender. Write it below the conclusion, slightly to the right.

In addition, the way to write envelopes in English is different from that in Chinese. Generally, the recipient's address is written in the center or lower right corner of the envelope. Write your name on the first line and your address below. The sender's name and address are written in the upper left corner of the envelope or on the back of the letter.
