英语信件的开头可以根据信件的性质和目的有所不同,但一般应包括以下几个要素:
称呼
正式信件:使用“Dear Mr./Ms. [Last Name],”或“Dear [Full Name],”。
非正式信件:可以使用“Hey [First Name]!”或“Hi [First Name]!”。
开场白
正式信件:可以简单地说“I am writing to...”或“I am writing to inform you that...”,或者表达感谢、道歉等。
非正式信件:可以更随意一些,如“I hope this letter finds you well.”或“I’ve been thinking about you lately.”。
目的说明
在信的开头部分明确说明写信的目的,例如提出建议、推荐某人、邀请参加活动或表达歉意等。
结束语
在称呼的下一行空两格开始写正文,并在结尾处使用适当的结束语,如“Best regards,”或“Yours sincerely,”。

Hey John,
Hope you’re doing well! I was just thinking about the time we had at that beach party, and I wanted to reach out and see how you’ve been.
Let’s catch up sometime soon. Maybe we can grab a coffee or a meal together.
Take care!
[Your Name]

根据你与收信人的关系以及信件的具体内容,可以灵活调整开头的语气和内容。
