Need help writing a letter...

[lindal24]

Hi,

I need help writing a "love" letter in Vietnamese to a significant other. I'm not sure what's the proper way to write it as writing styles differ in the states & Vietnam.

Please help!

Thanks,
Linda

I asked a friend from Vietnam about their standards of writing, and she told me:

1. The letter is typically written to the family, and not the individual.
2. Not to talk excessively about myself and not to write the letter to personally...
3. And finally, she said to keep the letter short, but to make sure to ask about the well being of the family...

So...am I supposed to just say something to this effect:

"Hello _____ & Family,

I hope your family is doing well.

Farewell & Till Next Time,

(my name)"

That just seems a little short and ridiculous to me, therefore, I'm turning to this forum for some help and advice...


Thanks again in advance!

Linda,
Your friend is either pulling your leg or FOS. Love letter is private between the 2 parties. The family would not dare reading it, unless their daughter is underage or the family is super nosy.

It is nice to ask about your mate's family but there is no rule saying that you have to.

In love letters you have to let your mate know more about you. So, write about yourself sometime and of course ask for info about your mate since you want to know about him/her, too. Of course, love letters are personal, so show the reader your feeling toward him/her. But don't get too personal by writing about sexual matters. It is still a taboo for young people to talk about such matter before marriage. In addition to that, it may fall into the wrong hand.

There is no such thing as short love letter. At least I have not seen one. Write until you have CTS.


Why don't you post what you want to write and we have a contest to see who can translate into sweetest love letter. I am just kidding. Good luck.
