Thank You Letter
A
letter of thanks or
thank you letter is a letter that is used when one
person/party wishes to express appreciation to another. Personal thank-you letters
are sometimes hand-written in cases in which the addressee is a friend, acquaintance
or relative. Thank-you letters are also sometimes referred to as
letters of gratitude.
These types of thank-you letters are usually written as formal business letters.
Your
thank you letter should clearly state the reason you are thanking the recipient
of the letter.
What to include in a 'Thank you' letter:
1. Mention the thing the person has done for you.
2. State how much you appreciate their effort.
3. Say what might have happened if the person did not offer his/her help.
4. You want to do something in return.
Words and Phrases to Use to Say Thank You
What's the best way to show your appreciation? When you're writing a thank-you
note, choose a phrase that fits the reason you are saying thank you.
If someone has helped you at work, on a project, or with a problem, let them know
you appreciate the assistance. If you are sending a job interview thank-you
note, thank the interviewer for his or her consideration. When people give you career
advice or a tip on a job opening, tell them you appreciate the guidance or the
suggestion.
When you're sending a personal thank-you letter or message, simply stating your
thanks and appreciation is often all you need to do. That is, your note does not need
to be very lengthy.
