(一)定义
祝贺信是一种向收信人表示祝贺的信件,一般用于对方有什么喜事或取得了什么成绩,如婚姻、节日、寿诞、毕业等。祝贺信是人们情感交流的一种方式,多写祝贺信可以使亲友、同事之间加强联系,增进亲情。
(二)主要内容
1.祝贺事由
首先要用简略的语言写明祝贺的事由,也就是祝贺什么,为什么祝贺。必要时,也可以写出自己是怎样获得这个好消息的。
2.祝贺语
用热情的语言向对方表示鼓励、赞扬、祝福。有时也可以有所发挥,谈一些相关的看法和建议。如在庆祝成绩的贺信中,可以分析一下对方所取得成绩的主客观原因;在庆贺婚姻的贺信中,可以谈一些自己对幸福婚姻生活的看法等。
3.结束语
正文的结尾要写上再次表示祝愿的话。如:“Best regards to you.”(祝您一切都好!)“I wish you success and fulfillment in the years ahead.”(祝您事业成功,万事如意!)
(三)注意事项
祝贺信的写作格式可以比照一般书信的格式,即由信头、信内地址、称呼、正文、结尾语、签名等几个部分组成。但根据亲疏关系的不同,有些祝贺信可以随意一些,比如信内地址有时可以省略,信头也可以写得简略一些。
写祝贺信要充满热情、喜悦,说些鼓励、褒扬的话,使对方能够感到温暖和振奋。
赞美对方要做到实事求是,恰如其分,不要故意拔高,更不能有献媚的嫌疑。
祝贺信要做到整洁、大方,用词要恰当、简练,篇幅不宜太长。所用信封和信纸都要经过认真选择,要显出郑重的态度,不可过于随意。
