    There is actually something called semi-formal. If you're asked to write a letter to your neighbour (who has just moved in next door) inviting them to a party you're throwing. In this case, it isn't quite formal, as they are not a building manager or your manager. But they are also not your friend exactly, as you don't really know them. This means this is actually semi-formal and things get tricky here. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    • @Sterben-ee2lx
      @Sterben-ee2lx Місяць тому +1

      You are right, however in this case if you write formally is not considered as a mistake. On the other hand, writing informally may lead to a lower score. Am I wrong? I am not sure myself.

    Assessing language skills by asking someone to describe airport scenarios, especially if they’ve never been there, is a flawed approach. It assumes experience rather than purely testing language ability, making it an unfair and ineffective measure of proficiency. 🤦‍♂️

    My experience has been writing "Yours faithfully" and it's informal counterpart at the Right Hand Side.... I'm a bit confused now, is it cool writing either side?

    Would it be okay to write a letter to my boss using contractions? (e.g. we are in friendly relationships and it would be awkward if I start talking formally to him).

    Hi, I just wanted to confirm, during my last Ielts writing exam, I received a letter mentioning that I have to write a letter to a retired family I know who are coming to visit my locality and in that it was mentioned start with Dear ......., So I interpreted that it was Semi formal and started writing saying Dear Mr & Mrs Smith. So was I right? Was it a formal letter format that I had to use since it was not mentioned friend?
    I have another exam coming up tomorrow so it would be great if you could reply me.

    • @Ieltsadvantage
      @Ieltsadvantage  Рік тому

      Hi there, if the question asks you to write to a ‘friend’, it should be an informal letter. If the question asks you to write to anyone else, it should be a formal letter. Best of luck with your test!
