上一期为大家介绍如何在商用英文书信中,专业有礼的打招唿,本期将进一步为您示范,进入信件内文时,应如何开场,才能让收件人在最短时间内掌握这封信件的重点与目的。
Follow-up email(用于延续之前讨论事项的开场方式)
在发送某件讨论事项的后续电子邮件时,利用上一封email的讯息开场,能帮助收信者了解此封信的重要性,同时快速连结起之前讨论的事项。以下分别依据不同状况,示范相应的例句。
- To follow up on our meeting+(date/time)/our project/suggested course of action(跟进上次的会议(日期/时间)/我们的专案/建议的行动方针)
Example:

- Following up on our last email/previous message...(接续我们上一封email/之前的讯息…)
Example:
Following up on our previous message, the press conference will be re-scheduled for later this year in July. We will discuss this further in more detail.(接续我们之前的讯息,记者会日期将调整到七月。我们将进一步讨论细节。)
- Further to our conversation, I’ve attached…(持续我们的谈话,我已附上…)
Example:
Further to our conversation, I’ve attached the edited document and we look forward to your feedback if there is any.(持续我们的谈话,我已附上更新版文件,我们期待收到您的任何反馈。)
- As promised, here’s …(如同我先前承诺的,这里是…)
