yersi Posted July 13, 2008 at 01:45 PM Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 at 01:45 PM One of my biggest weaknesses is emails and letters - for some reason, there doesn't seem to be any books on this subject: e.g how to write application letters, formal invitations, ordinary workplace emails, resignation letters et.c. I've searched around for it but most of the sites are for Chinese English learners. Is there any site out there that covers this topic? Are any of you willing to share some samples with me?

imron Posted July 13, 2008 at 02:03 PM Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 at 02:03 PM The first 30 or so pages in this book are devoted to letter writing.

student Posted July 13, 2008 at 04:48 PM Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 at 04:48 PM Perhaps also "Developing Writing Skills in Chinese" by Boping Yuan and Kan Qian, http://www.amazon.com/Developing-Writing-Skills-Chinese-Boping/dp/0415215846/ref=ed_oe_p It includes chapters on Cards, Notes, Personal Letters, Announcements, Formal Letters, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
