SCORING 100% IN YOUR WAEC\/NECO SEMI-FORMAL LETTERS<\/strong><\/p>\n

by Hassan Abdulbaqi<\/em><\/p>\n

This is a letter<\/a> <\/strong>that you write to those who are neither too informal like the informal letters<\/strong><\/a>, nor official like the formal letters<\/strong><\/a>. It may be a pen friend you\u2019ve not met before, a distant uncle, your parent\u2019s friends.<\/p>\n

In this kind of letter, you need to write only your address just as in informal letters <\/strong><\/a>and you should follow it directly with the date.<\/p>\n

5 Market Road,<\/p>\n

Ilarada street,<\/p>\n

Igbokoda.<\/p>\n

2nd <\/sup>December, 2018.<\/p>\n

For your salutation, the address may mention the surname of the addressee plus his title as opposed to formal letters<\/strong> where Dear Sir\/Madam is required. If however, you don\u2019t know the surname of the recipient, then your Dear Sir\/Madam suffices.<\/p>\n

In the body of the letter, don\u2019t ask much questions about the wellbeing of his family. Though the language is less official as in formal letters, slangs\/jokes and colloquialisms should be avoided. Your points should also be arranged in properly linked and well developed paragraphs<\/strong><\/a>. Make sure letter relates to the central topic and requirement of the question.<\/p>\n

Your conclusion should be \u2018Yours sincerely,\u2019 and your first name + surname in the next line. See:<\/p>\n

Yours sincerely,<\/p>\n

Kikelomo Olanite.<\/p>\n

Again, note that \u2018Y\u2019 in \u2018Yours\u2019 should be in capital letter, \u2018s\u2019 in \u2018sincerely\u2019 in small letter, don\u2019t also forget the comma and full stop as appropriately placed in the example.<\/p>\n
