Writing a letter is a means that brings the spirit of distant people to a confluence ground and establishes a close relationship between the two. The famous English writer James Huddle says the truth is that “writing is an art that combines the ideas of two people into a literary technique.” The letter exchanges human thoughts through a simple, easy, popular and powerful medium.

Along with being a living conductor of the happiness and sorrow of the letter person, it is also a reflection of the personality of the letter writer. From personal life to business, or in the offices/institutes, communication is the only means.

In these, personal tendencies, happiness, sorrow, joy, enthusiasm, congratulations, good wishes, etc. are described. The language of informal letters is kindred and touching the heart.

Sir/Madam,
We ordered you 2500 electric bulbs, which are to be supplied in the last week of this month, but we are sorry to ask you to cancel this order of bulbs.
Actually, we are forced to cancel this order, as 2500 bulbs of the said 100 watts were being ordered for supply to the local municipal corporation. But due to the internal budget problem, the Municipal Corporation has banned this supply for some time.
Thus, it was our compulsion to cancel this order, but as soon as the problem related to the budget in the Municipal Corporation is resolved, we will request you again for the supply of these goods.
We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you.
Thank you.
Yours faithfully,
Signature……
