1、信纸的右上角写上日期，如September 8，也常用简写Sep. 8；非正式的信件，年代常省略；正式的书信则不只会写上年代，还会把发信者的住址写在日期的上方。
2、接下来在信纸的左方写收信人的称呼语，通常用Dear开始，再接着写名字(一般都用first name )，如Dear Susan (亲爱的苏珊)；至于名字的后面则通常打上逗号或留白。
3、称呼语写完后，通常会先空一行才开始写信的本文。
4、本文结束后，再写上结尾语，如See you (再见)、( With) Best wishes(祝你平安)、Yours always (永远是你的挚爱)、Yours ever (永远爱你的)、Your friend (你的友人)等。
注意： 结尾语的第一个字母要大写，最后还要加上逗点。
