文档介绍：Invitation Letter/Card 邀请信、邀请卡
邀请信包括宴会、舞会、晚餐、聚会、婚礼等各
种邀请信件,形式上大体分为两种:
一种为正规的格式(formalcorrespondence),亦称请柬;
一种是非正式格式(informal correspondence), 即一般的邀请信。邀请信是在形式上不如请柬那样正规,但也是很考究。
书写时应注意以下事项:
邀请信一定要将邀请的时间(年、月、日、钟点)、地点、场合写清楚,不能使接信人存在任何疑虑。例如:“I’dlike you and Bob e to Luncheon next Friday.”这句话中所指的是哪个星期五并不明确,所以应加上具体日期, “I’d like you and Bob e to luncheon next Friday, May the fifth.”
