What is style?
The words in a
business letter and the
way in which they are
arranged express the
writer’s personally and
give the letter it’s
best appearance is
called its style.
Full block style
In full block style all the
elements of the letter, on
the page are aligned flush
with the left margin. Full
block is the easiest format
to use and it produces a
clean-looking page. It's also
common.
MODIFIED
BLOCK
STYLE
A modified block business
letter is a letter that uses a
format that is slightly
different from the full
block letter. The return
address, date,
complimentary closing and
the signature line are put
slightly to the right of the
paper's centre. In addition,
these letters are the most
common in organisations.
HANGING
INDENTED
STYLE
The first line of the
paragraph begins at the
left-hand margin. And
the other lines of the
same paragraph are
indented three to four
spaces. This is the
reversal of semi-
indented style discussed
in other page.
SIMPLIFIED
STYLE
This style is used when
you write a letter and
you do not know the
name and title of the
person to whom you are
writing the letter.
The salutation and the
complimentary closing
are not used in this style.
