上一期為大家介紹如何在商用英文書信中,專業有禮的打招呼,本期將進一步為您示範,進入信件內文時,應如何開場,才能讓收件人在最短時間內掌握這封信件的重點與目的。
Follow-up email(用於延續之前討論事項的開場方式)
在發送某件討論事項的後續電子郵件時,利用上一封email的訊息開場,能幫助收信者了解此封信的重要性,同時快速連結起之前討論的事項。以下分別依據不同狀況,示範相應的例句。
- To follow up on our meeting+(date/time)/our project/suggested course of action(跟進上次的會議(日期/時間)/我們的專案/建議的行動方針)
Example:
To follow up on our meeting last Friday, attached please find the revised contract. We look forward to seeing you soon.(跟進我們上週五的會議,調整過的合約請參考附件。我們期待下次見。)
- Following up on our last email/previous message...(接續我們上一封email/之前的訊息…)
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.(接續我們之前的訊息,記者會日期將調整到七月。我們將進一步討論細節。)
- Further to our conversation, I’ve attached…(持續我們的談話,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.(持續我們的談話,我已附上更新版文件,我們期待收到您的任何反饋。)
- As promised, here’s …(如同我先前承諾的,這裡是…)
Example:
As promised, here’s the presentation material. Please let us know if you have any further questions regarding it.(如同我先前承諾的,這裡是簡報素材。若有任何相關問題請讓我知道。)

Example:

- As discussed, attached please find…(如同之前討論過的,請查閱附件…)
Example:
As discussed, attached please find the revised course of action.(如同之前討論過的,請查閱附件更新版的行動方案。)
- As we discussed in our phone call…(如同我們在電話中討論的…)
