一、函电书写基本原则 
1、Courtesy 礼貌 
语言要有礼且谦虚，及时地回信也是礼貌的表现。 
例如： 
We have received with many thanks your letter of 20 May, and we take the pleasure of sending 
you our latest catalog. We wish to draw your attention to a special offer which we have made in it. 
You will be particularly interested in a special offer on page 5 of the latest catalog enclosed, which 
you requested in your letter of 20 May. 
2 、Consideration 体谅 
写信时要处处从对方的角度去考虑有什么需求，而不是从自身出发，语气上更尊重对方。 
例如： 
"You earn 2 percent discount when you pay cash. We will send you the brochure next month. "就 
比 "We allow 2 percent discount for cash payment. We won't be able to send you the brochure 
this month." 要好。 
3、Completeness 完整 
一封商业信函应概况了各项必需的事项，如邀请信应说明时间、地点等，确忌寄出含糊不清 
的信件。 
4 、Clarity 清楚 
意思表达明确，要注意： 
 （1） 避免用词错误： 
例如：As   to the steamers sailing   from  Hong   Kong   to San Francisco, we  have  bimonthly   direct 
services. 
此处bimonthly 有歧义：可以是twice a month       或者once two month.故读信者就迷惑了，可以 
改写为： 
1.We have two direct sailings every month from Hong Kong to San Francisco. 
2.We have semimonthly direct sailing from Hong Kong to San Francisco. 
3.We have a direct sailing from Hong Kong to San Francisco. 
 （2 ）注意词语所放的位置： 
例如： 
. We shall be able to supply 10 cases of the item only. 
前者则有两种商品以上的含义。 
 （3 ）注意句子的结构： 
例如： 
We sent you 5 samples yesterday of the goods which you requested in your letter of May 20 by air. 
We sent you, by air, 5 samples of the goods which you requested in your letter of May 20. 
5、Conciseness   简洁 
 （1）避免废话连篇： 
例如： 
.We wish to acknowledge receipt of your letter... 可改为：We appreciate your letter... 
.Enclosed herewith please find two copies of...可改为: We enclose two copies of... 
 （2 ）避免不必要的重复： 
 （3 ）短句、单词的运用： 
Enclosed herewith----- enclosed 
at this time----- now 
due to the fact that----- because 
a draft in the amount of $1000----- a draft for $1000 
6、Concreteness   具体 
7、Correctness  正确 
二、样信 
 （一）感谢信样信

account of the organization and work of your Chamber 
of Commerce and Industry.

构。对给我们一个你们活动如此详细的描述，我们表示非常感谢。这一信息一定能帮助促进

 （二）祝贺

Day, please accept our heartiest congratulations. 
May the trade connections between our countries continue to develop with each passing day!
