Personal Letter

Personal Letter

A personal letter is a type of letter which provides communication between a small number of people, usually two. There are many types of personal letters and they are written for a wide variety of reasons:

• One person wishes to attain information from an individual or a business
• One person wishes to tell somebody about themselves, as in pen pals
• One person wishes to present to an individual or a business a social note note, such as a thank-you or a congratulation.
• One person wishes to communicate with an acquaintance - friend or family, for example in order to maintain and reinforce the bond between them.

There are 2 types of personal letter, formal personal letter and informal personal letter.

 

Example of InFormal Personal Letter :

Jakarta, 15 June, 2005
Risa Sharmanti
Jalan Merak 9, Bandung
Jawa Barat

Dear Risa,

I’d like to thank you for the letter inviting me to see the play next week. I believe the play will be very interesting because some talented actors and actresses will play in it. However, I haven’t made up my mind about that. Now, I’m very busy preparing for my semester test. I hope you will understand. I’ll be happy if you tell me about the play later.
As soon as the test is done, I will visit you. Send my best regards to your parents.

Your sincerely,

Yolanda

ANNOUNCEMENT

ANNOUNCEMENT

1.      The Definition of Announcement

An announcement can also say as something that someone says officially, giving information about something.

2.      Characteristic of Announcement

Use simple present tense or simple future tense often enticement.

1. Simple Present Tense

Formula:

Subject (I, You, We, They) + infinitive

Examples:

 I speak English.

You sing a song.

We go to library.

They play football.

Subject (He, She, It) + infinitive + -s/-es

Examples:

☺   He passes the Physics exam well.

☺   She buys a kilo of sugar.

☺   It makes you to be someone different.

2. Simple Future tense

Formula:

Subject + shall/will + be + ….

Examples:

John will buy a new house next week.

She will help another person that gets through a terrible situation.

The government will visit the disaster victims.

I shall go to Surabaya tomorrow.

We shall do the best in our life.

Notes: For simple future tense will is used for subject (He, She, It).

Meanwhile, shall is used for subject (I, We).

Where usually we can find an announcement?

1. Television;

2. Radio;

3. Newspapers; and

4. Wall Magazine.

In writing an announcement, keep the following points:

Opening, The title/type of event;

Date/time, place; and

Contact person.

Example  of Announcement :

Past Continous

Past Countinous 

The past continuous tense expresses action at a particular moment in the past. The action started before that moment but has not finished at that moment. For example, yesterday I watched a film on TV. The film started at 7pm and finished at 9pm.

At 8pm yesterday, I was watching TV.
past	present	future
8pm
At 8pm, I was in the middle of watching TV.

When we use the past continuous tense, our listener usually knows or understands what time we are talking about. Look at these examples:

• I was working at 10pm last night.
• They were not playing football at 9am this morning.
• What were you doing at 10pm last night?
• What were you doing when he arrived?
• She was cooking when I telephoned her.
• We were having dinner when it started to rain.
• Ram went home early because it was snowing.

Some verbs cannot be used in continuous/progressive tenses.

We often use the past continuous tense to "set the scene" in stories. We use it to describe the background situation at the moment when the action begins. Often, the story starts with the past continuous tense and then moves into the simple past tense. Here is an example:

" James Bond was driving through town. It was raining. The wind was blowing hard. Nobody was walking in the streets. Suddenly, Bond saw the killer in a telephone box..."

Past Continuous Tense + Simple Past Tense

We often use the past continuous tense with the simple past tense. We use the past continuous tense to express a long action. And we use the simple past tense to express a short action that happens in the middle of the long action. We can join the two ideas with when or while.
In the following example, we have two actions:

1. long action (watching TV), expressed with past continuous tense
2. short action (telephoned), expressed with simple past tense

past	present	future
Long action.
I was watching TV at 8pm. 8pm You telephoned at 8pm.
Short action.

We can join these two actions with when:

• I was watching TV when you telephoned.

(Notice that "when you telephoned" is also a way of defining the time [8pm].)
We use:

• when + short action (simple past tense)
• while + long action (past continuous tense)

There are four basic combinations:

	I was walking past the car	when	it exploded.
When	the car exploded		I was walking past it.
	The car exploded	while	I was walking past it.
While	I was walking past the car		it exploded.

Notice that the long action and short action are relative.

• "Watching TV" took a few hours. "Telephoned" took a few seconds.
• "Walking past the car" took a few seconds. "Exploded" took a few milliseconds.

Present Perfect Tense

 

Formula:

(+) S + have/has + V3

(-)  S + have/sas Not + V3

(?) Have/has + S + V3 + ?

Here are some examples of the present perfect tense:

subject	auxiliary verb		main verb

+	You	have		eaten	mine.
-	She	has	not	been	to Rome.
-	We	have	not	played	football.
?	Have	you		finished?

When we use the present perfect tense in speaking, we usually contract the subject and auxiliary verb. We also sometimes do this when we write.

I have	I’ve

Camping

Last weekend, my friends and I went camping. We reached the camping ground after we walked for about one and a half hour from the parking lot. We built the camp next to a small river. It was getting darker and colder, so we built a fire camp.
 

The next day, we spent our time observing plantation and insects while the girls were preparing meals. In the afternoon we went to the river and caught some fish for supper. At night, we held a fire camp night. We sang, danced, read poetry, played magic tricks, and even some of us performed a standing comedy.

On Monday, we packed our bags and got ready to go home.
