Adapt letters and emails to the reader
Learn it simply
- A letter or email needs a clear purpose, appropriate relationship, and useful organisation.
- State why you are writing early, give the information the recipient needs, and make any request specific.
- A message to a friend can be conversational; a request to a principal usually needs a respectful register.
See it. Say it. Understand it.

A letter or email needs a clear purpose, appropriate relationship, and useful organisation. State why you are writing early, give the information the recipient needs, and make any request specific. A message to a friend can be conversational; a request to a principal usually needs a respectful register. Format conventions support communication but do not replace meaningful content. End in a way that suits the relationship. Proofread names, dates, and the requested action because errors in these details can cause practical confusion.
ලියන්නේ ඇයිද යන්න මුලින් කියා ලබන්නාට අවශ්ය විස්තර හා ඉල්ලීම පැහැදිලිව ලියන්න. අදාළ ආචාරශීලී රටාව භාවිත කර නම, දිනය හා කළ යුතු දේ පරීක්ෂා කරන්න.
Plan before drafting: identify the reader, the purpose, and the information that must be included. Select a small number of useful details and place them in a logical order. After writing, check the effect on a reader who does not know your intentions. Revise unclear meaning first, then check sentence boundaries, verb forms, spelling, and punctuation.
ලියන්නේ කාටද, ඇයිද සහ ඇතුළත් කළ යුතු කරුණු මොනවාද යන්න මුලින් සැලසුම් කරන්න. අදහස් පිළිවෙළට ලියා, අර්ථය පැහැදිලි කර පසුව වාක්ය, ක්රියාපද, අක්ෂර වින්යාසය හා විරාම ලකුණු පරීක්ෂා කරන්න.
For 0510 practice, communication should be clear, relevant and accurate. Distinguish an examination question's instructions from general English advice, and check the syllabus for your examination year. Speaking is separately endorsed in 0510. These teaching models support selected skills; they do not constitute a full reading, writing, listening and speaking mock.
