Warm-up

What are the components (parts) of an email?

Discuss with your neighbour.

Aanhef	Hi, Hello, Hey, Dear [name] ,
Beantwoord vragen	I hope you are well. I am fine/okay. How are you? Thanks for your email. It was good to hear from you.
Vertel meer over het onderwerp	Something bad happened! I have broken my leg and cannot walk. It doesn't hurt as much as before. They put a cast on my leg, so I cannot move a lot. etc....
Afsluitende zin	Write back soon! Keep in touch. See you soon. Give my regards to your family. I hope to hear from you soon. etc.
Afsluiting en ondertekening	All the best, Take care, Talk later, See you! Best wishes, Have a good weekend, Love, Hugs and kisses, [name]

Spoken language

Avoid:

gonna                 going to

wanna                want to (or: would like to)

u                            you

Also, I (=ik) is always written with a capital letter
