E-MALL FOR MR ADEBAYO

My dear Mr Adebayo

I was informed earlier today by your colleague, Jane Rodber, that your company is now ready to consider our proposal. It goes without saying that I am delighted to hear this news. However, I will be on vacation in Berlin for the next four days and so, regrettably, during this period I will not be available to attend personally to any queries that you may have.

Notwithstanding the above, you will be telephoned by my secretary to arrange a little ‘rendezvous’ after my return, when I hope this matter can be discussed further.

May I say that I very much look forward to meeting you.

With best wishes,

Brian de Glanville

Dear Mr Adebayo,

Your colleague, Jane Rodber, told me that you are now ready to consider our proposal. Of course, I’m delighted to hear this news. However, I’m on vacation for the next four days and so won’t be able to deal personally with any queries until I get back.

My secretary will call you to arrange a meeting after my return when I hope we can discuss the matter further.

I look forward to meeting you,

With best wishes,

HOW TO WRITE E-MAIL MESSAGES

IN ENGLISH

There are no rules for writing e-mail messages in English. But it will probably help if you write clearly and concisely. However, the English writer, George Orwell, gave these rules for writing effectively.

George Orwell

THE RULES OF EFFECTIVE WRITING

• Never use a metaphor, simile or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.

• Never use a long word when a short one will do.

• If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.

• Never use the passive where you can use the active.

• Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.

• Break any of these rules sooner than saying anything outright barbarous.

1. According to George Orwell's rules, what is wrong with these sentences?

One of our highly-qualified, dynamic sales and marketing representatives will make your acquaintance over the next two weeks.

You will be visited by one of our salespeople during the next two weeks.

How do you think George Orwell would rewrite these two sentences?

2. Delete as many unnecessary words as possible from this e-mail message, while keeping the meaning.

Rewrite the remaining text according to Orwell's rules. (Change foreign words to English ones, change passive verbs into active ones, etc.)

Compare your version to the version on page 32. Which do you think is better? Explain why.

3. Micro serfs is a novel about a group of young computer programmers who work for the giant soflS1 ware company, Microsoft. Here, one of the characters talks about his experience of e-mail.

I've been thinking: I get too many pieces of e-mail, about sixty a day. This is a typical num­ber at Microsoft. E-mail is like highways — if you have them, traffic follows.

I'm an e-mail addict. Everybody at Microsoft is an addict. The future of e-mail usage is being pioneered right here. The cool thing with e-mail is when you send it, there's no pos­sibility of connecting with the person on the other end. It's better than phone answering machines because, with them, the person on the other line might actually pick up the phone and you might have to talk.

Typically, everybody has about a 40% immediate cull rate — those pieces of mail you can delete immediately because of a frivolous tag line. What you read of the remaining 60% depends on how much of a life, the more mail you read.

How does this compare with your experience of e-mail?
