                                      Invitation

An invitation is a friendly letter written to encourage someone to attend a special event. It uses an informal tone to try to convince the reader to come to the party.

                                     Thank-you note

A thank you note is a friendly letter written to express the writer’s appreciation. It uses an informal tone to tell the reader how pleased the writer was with a gift or favor.

Both invitations and think you notes have five parts:

1-The heading-your address and the date of writing.

.2-The greeting or salutation-usually Dear.

3-The body-the content of the letter; the part where you give the invitation or state your thanks.

4-The closing-for example; with love, or your friend.

5-The signature.

Dear Uncle Bob,        (Greeting)

(Body) Well, the leaves outside are changing color. The time means that it’s time to make our Thanksgiving plans.

 Bob, I hope you will spend Thanks giving in Darien with me this year. After all, Thanksgiving is family time, and you are my only family in America. Besides, how can you resist my wonderful roast turkey with wild rice?

Please tell me “yes” as soon as that weekend, and I want to get us tickets

Can you pass up and offer like that?

                                                                                    (Closing) With love,

                                                                                     (Signature)----------.

Dear Sara, (Greeting)
(Body)    I just wanted to thank you again for inviting me for Thanksgiving. It was everything you promised!

The meat was wonderful, especially that golden turkey and the sweet fan you made. I talked about it at the plant, and two people asked for the recipe! I had good time at the concert, too. But the best part was seeing you again. We let too much time go by between visits, so let’s see each other again soon.

I’ll have many good memories of our visit.

                                                                     (Closing)     Your uncle uncle
