作文范文之英语作文便条格式

英语作文便条格式

【篇一：英语写作便条】

便条（notes）

便条是一种简单的书信，我们有事请要告诉别人或委托别人办理而

不能面谈时，就可以被他们写个便条，便条内容简短，大多是临时

性的询问、留言、要求等，往往只是一两句话。便条的种类有请假条、留言条、借条、收条等。

语言特点

便条篇幅短，语言简单扼要，语体通俗口语化。

格式

便条的书写格式基本上都包括以下几个部分： 1）日期（date）：

日期写在右上角。 2）称呼（salutation）：称呼可以正式（如dear mr. white）, 也可以随便些（如dear peter）。 3）正文（text）：

正文写明要留言的内容，但语言要简单扼要，通俗口语化，把事情

说清楚就行。4）署名（signature）：署名部分写上留条人的姓名，写在右下角。如果是很熟悉的人，只要写上名就可以了，如john，kate等，也可以写上全名，如john smith

1请假条（notes asking for leave）

请假条应写明收条人的姓名。正文中，开头应清楚地写明请假的原因、时间、并为请假可能引起的不便表示歉意。最后表达你对对方

准予请假的愿望。

请假条可分为病假条（asking for sick leave）和事假条（asking for business leave）。

3 借条（note / form of i.o.u.）

借条通常是指我们借用款项或物品时写的条据。

在书写上，借条的时间应该较为具体，应包括年、月、日。称呼一

般会写to…… （物品或款项的主人），如to computer

department 或 to mr. zhang min 等。正文中的关键信息，如向谁、借了什么东西、数量多少、归还期限等，也应该具体明确。语言要

简明扼要。署名部分应署借款或借物人的全名，如果是公事，可以

加注借款或借物人所在单位。

借款性质一般分为定期和不定期偿还两种。没有偿还日期的借条书

写较为简单。在抬头下一行写明借款的数量，开头写上i.o.u. 就可以了（i.o.u.也可以写作iou，是i owe you 的缩写，相当于中文的“今

借到”）。写明定期偿还得借条（promissory note）文中可以不写

i.o.u.，但要写清楚偿还日期，末尾即款项后面往往加上“for value

re ceived”,意思是“….整”，这样写表示慎重。如果想要说明借款用途，可在钱物后面加上“for”。

4 收条（receipt）

收条是指接受款项或物品时所写的条据。收条的写法和借条大致相同。收条的日期也应该具体到年、月、日，但收条不必写称呼，可

直接写明收到的具体内容。收条常以“received from….”或“received of….”开头，相当于中文“今收到….”，信息应该具体准确. 如果是公事，署名部分也可以写明收款或收物人所在单位。

【篇三：英文便条的写法】

英文日期分英式和美式,如下:

1) 8th march,2004 或8 march,2004（英式）

2) march 8th,2004 或march 8,2004 （美式）

日期写法宜遵从下列规则：

1)年份必须完全写明，不可用04代替2004;

2)月份必须用英文拼出或采用公认的简写，即 january (jan.),february

(feb.),march(mar.),april(apr.),may,june,july,august (aug.),september

(sept.),october(oct.),november(nov.),december(dec.);

3)日期可用序数词，如：1st,2nd,3rd,4th,...；也可用基数词，如：1，2，3，4，...。但美式大多采用后者；

4)在年份和月日之间必须用逗号隔开；

5)日期不可全部采用如7.12.2003或7/12/2003的阿拉伯数字书写，否则会引起误解。因为英美在这方面的习惯用法不同。按美国人习惯，上述日期为2003年7月12日，而按英国习惯则是2003年12

月7日

英语写作关于英文便条

便笺（便条）和短信

一、概述

便条也是书信的一种形式。它的特点是内容简短，主要有临时性的

询问、留言、通知、要求等。跟正规书信相比，便条的语言比较口

头化，比如要通知某事只需这样开头：just a line to tell you that ...

而无须像正规书信那样this is to inform you that ...开头。另外，

在便条中常出现省略现象，例如：“key to back door is under mat.”或者“key to back door under mat .”(后门钥匙在垫子下面)代之以“the key to the back door is under the mat.”。

结束时也无需结尾礼词，只需写上写便条者姓名。如果是关系比较

近的人，则只需写上姓或名。

便条的日期通常写在右上角。一般只写上星期几或者星期几上午或

下午，也可写上午、下午的具体时刻。日常应用中，写上几月几日

的也很普遍。但一般不写年份，因为便条的内容多半是当日或近日

内要办的事情。写便条时，不得事先准备，因此无固定格式，大多

用手写。

二、注意事项

1.词句简洁，尽量避免应酬语和各种敬词

2.切忌内容空洞、言不达意。

三、分类举例

1）请假（asking for leave）

例1

directions: you are about to write a business leave note of about 100 words. please describe this information clearly.

1) the reason you ask for the leave

2) the time and how long you will leave

class 4, grade 3

aug. 22nd

to department office

secretary li,

as concern as the missed lessons during my absence, i promise i will do my best to catch them on after i come back to the campus. wish for your allowance.

yours respectfully

*本文是一封请假条，一般我们要向上级或老师请假，通常用的是

ask for leave这个短语，请三天假可写作：ask for three days’ leave;因病请假则是ask for sick leave. leave在这里是名词用法，

文中用的短语是apply for意为“申请”，含有更加郑重的意味，常用

于下级对上级或晚辈对长辈的书面语中，“only child”意为“独生子女”相应的，“独生女”译作“only daughter”而“独生子”译作“only son”. as concern as.后面跟名词性结构，意为“涉及到，至于”与concerning同意，两者可以互换。

2)约请(invitation)

例

directions: you have a ticket to the russian national ballet troupe, which is visiting and you want to give it to your friend alice. write a note to her and say:

1) the time of the show,

2) the place where you will wait for her

you should write about 100 words.

sunday

dear alice,

here is a piece of good news for you. the russian national

ballet troupe, which is now on a visit in beijing, will give a performance in the beijing grand theater tomorrow evening. i

am sure that you will be happy to watch it. here i leave you an admission card. the performance will begin at seven o’clock sharp. i will wait for you at the theater entrance. please let me know whether you are prevented from coming or not.

* 约朋友一起去看戏，可是朋友不在家，只好留下票子和一张便条，但又怕朋友来不了，所以在便条最后特地写上“如果你来不了，告诉

我一声”（please let me know whether you are prevented from coming）此文的wait for也可以用expect 代替。

3)道歉（apology）

人非圣贤，孰能无过。在社会交往中，人们常常会出现一些疏忽、

过失等。如果发生此类事情，就会给对方带来麻烦和不便。为了避

免误解，不影响感情，在这种情况下，应写信给对方予以解释，以请求谅解。

此类信要写得及时，态度要诚恳，用词需谦逊。一般在信一开始就向对方表示歉意或内疚，然后说明原因并提出补救的办法。

例1

directions: you have missed a date of your friend, now you have to write a letter for appologization in about 100 words.

may 20th

dear lily,

i am sorry i missed seeing you yesterday. i know that you must have been disappointed. i

also feel worried and anxious in my heart. the fact is that my manager at the last moment asked me to prepare a urgent plan while i could not get to a phone to call you and yesterday i have worked late until about 8:30 p. m. i am terribly sorry.

however, i would like to ask you out this weekend to make up for yesterday. please give me a chance and i am waiting for your reply.

* 临时有事未能赴约，一定要把事情解释清楚并真诚的道歉，最好能有弥补（to make up），就像这封信里所说的那样，邀请对方周末再碰头（i would like to ask you out this weekend）注意英文句子you must have been disappointed中情态动词的用法：情态动词+完成时态，表示过去行为。这句话应该理解为“你当时一定感到很失望”。

例2

directions: you have received a invitation from your friend, but you have already had some guests in your house. please express the reason you can’t go clearly in about 100 words.

6. april

dear lucy,

i do apologize for having to send this letter about saturday night.

when i accepted your invitation, i simply forgot that saturday was a holiday and that my own guests were not leaving until sunday morning. it is difficult for me to make a choice. though i also wonder to meet you very much. i could not very well go out by myself and leave the guests at my home.

i hope you know how sorry i am not to be with you this saturday. should i make a visit to you in my other spare time? thank you very much.

* 自己家里有客人，自然不方便再接受别人邀请去做客所以可以明正言顺的表示拒绝或可另约时间。英文要强调谓语动词，可以加上助动词，例如：

i do apologize for being late.

he did come yesterday.

例3

directions: you are already have a date with your friend but suddenly have another thing to do and you have to tell your friend that you can’t go. express your reason clearly in about 100 words.

monday 9:00 a.m

dear jane,

i am sorry to tell you that i won’t be able to come this afternoon because i have to go to the airport at 2:00 p. m. to meet an overseas visitor from australia. i really have kept our date in my mind all these days, however, i received my boss’ e-mail this morning, he asked me to go to the airport to meet one of his friends from abroad, it’s suddenly and urgent and i must go. please forgive me. would you please ring me up to make another time?

many thanks.

* 因有事而不能赴约，只能另约时间（to make或to fix another time）。写信人bluce很可能是英国人，因为他把“打电话”说成to ring somebody up，美国人通常说to call somebody。英国人打电话还可以说 to give somebody a ring，不要错以为别人要送你个戒指。与别人已经定好的约会却临时不能赴约时，应说明原因并诚恳地道歉，以期获得别人的谅解。

4）借物(borrowing)

例

directions: you are going to write a note for borrowing sth. please describe this information clearly.

1) the thing you ask

2) detailed what you are going to do with it.

3) how long will you take it.

tuesday

dear xiao wang:

i wonder if i could borrow your electronic dictionary for a few days. now i am translating some important articles. there are many new words which i have to look up the dictionary usually.
