在这个 电子邮件调整 lesson, 我们正在看吉米的一封电子邮件, 是他公司的培训官. 吉米想通知即将召开的研讨会的各个部门负责人，他们的员工将参加. 这是一封内部电子邮件, 通常，这比发送到公司外部的东西更为非正式. 然而, 它被发送给比Jimmy更高级别的经理, 因此语气必须尊重且不要太随意.

I’s very good, I’m Italian and I don’t speak a good English but I understood it very well.
ET-06 has helped me a lot to understand the better way to write a mail on business. But I’m still confuse on how I can make a email formal/informal and decisive/tentative. I wonder if you can help me to explaint more about modal verbs/words in order to understand how I can be more or less polite and change the tone on a email.
@ Alejandro,
You raise an excellent point: How to vary the tone in English? As you mention, the use of modals verbs is key to varying tone but there are also other techniques that come into play. I think this is a topic we need to look at in detail for both written and spoken English, so expect to see some lessons on tone in the new year.
Is it right to address to “department heads” or would it be better or also possible to write “heads of department”?
@Rapsak,
If you’re referring to the salutation (greeting), I would use “Department Heads”.
