• Formal emails have a number of features which are not present in more friendly emails.
1. The vocabulary is more formal: I am afraid I will not be able to attend the meeting on Friday. NOT I’m sorry I can’t make the meeting on Friday.
2. We tend to use fewer phrasal verbs: If any problems arise … (NOT … problems come up …)
3. We normally do not contract the verb forms: I am writing to inform you … (NOT I’m writing …)
