A letter to a friend is like in English. Letter in English to a friend. Vacation and travel story

I have read your letter today. I am glad that you are fine! I am very happy that you successfully passed your Chinese exam. My congratulations! I know you had been studying hard to pass it.

Now, let me tell you my news.

As usual, I study deeply English and maths. My mathematics teacher moved to Germany for a year. That is why I have another teacher at the moment. But I like him as well.

I am doing well at English. I have been watching films in English every day for two months already. At the moment I am watching films with subtitles, but hopefully, soon I will be able to understand everything without them. I think, this is a very good way to enlarge one's vocabulary.

I have recently been playing volleyball in the park. You know, I like this kind of sports. I have met a really nice girl there. Her name is Lena. Next time I am going to invite her to the cinema. It looks like I go to the park to see her rather than play volleyball)))

My brother has started to work in an interior design studio. He enjoys it a lot more than his previous job. My parents are planning to buy a new flat. This one is too small now.

Valera, Andrey and I often think about you. It is a pity that you had to go. It was so much fun when you were here. It is Andrey’s birthday soon. It is sad that we will have to celebrate it without you. I hope you will be able to come and visit us when it is my birthday.

Yesterday we met Sveta and Natasha. They gave their regards to you. They asked if you liked your new place. We told them that you did. By the way, Natasha dyed her hair black. She is a brunette now! It suits her, though.

Please give my regards to your mom, dad and sister! Come to visit us as soon as you have an opportunity! Do not forget to write! We miss you so much!

Wishing you best of luck!

Dear Sergey!

I read your letter today. I am glad that you are doing well! I am very happy that you have successfully passed the Chinese language exam! My congratulations! I know you prepared very hard to pass it.

Now I'll tell you what is new in my life.

As usual, I am deeply engaged in English and mathematics. My math teacher moved to Germany for a year, so now I'm studying with someone else. But I like him too.

English is good. For two months now I have been watching films on English language... I still watch films with subtitles, but hopefully I will soon be able to understand everything without them. In my opinion, this is a very good way to improve your vocabulary.

Recently I go to the park to play volleyball. You know I love this sport. There I met a very pretty girl. Her name is Lena. Next time I will invite her to the cinema. In my opinion, I go to the park because of her, and not because of volleyball)))

My brother started working in an interior design studio. He likes this job much more than the old one. Parents want to buy a new apartment, as this one is already cramped for us.

Valera, Andrey and I often remember you. It's a pity you left. It was so much fun when you were here. Andrey's birthday is coming soon. Unfortunately, we will celebrate without you. Hope you can come for my birthday.

Yesterday we saw Sveta and Natasha. They said hello to you. They asked if you like your new place? We said yes. By the way, Natasha dyed her hair black! Now she's a brunette! But it suits her.

Say hello for me to mom, dad and sister! Come as soon as possible! Don't forget to write! We miss you very much!

I wish you all the best!

Jane's letter

65, Allendale Road
London - GI5 8SG
February 20, 2014

How are you doing? I'm just writing to let you know that everything is all right now. This is a nice quiet place. The people are friendly, and the weather is warm. We've been staying here for ten days now, and we are already used to it.
I walk a lot, but Phil just spends his time reading newspapers and writing business letters. Sometimes we are going for a walk together.
Last week I went to the nearest park. This is a wonderful very beautiful place. I saw a lot of squirrels, they were so noisy and begged for food all the time. I gave them all the peanuts that I had. There is also a small pond at the park with ducks and beautiful water lilies.
Next week I'm going to start writing my new book, and it's going to be very hard work. That is all for now.
Give my regards to Paul and the family. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Your loving sister,
Ann

Elizabeth's letter

Translation of this letter:

Dear Elizabeth,
How are you? I feel refreshed after a delightful stay last week when my family and I went to the Blue Lake to relax.
Every morning we walked to the lake, sat in comfortable chairs and cast fishing lines. I caught a rainbow trout that weighed two pounds. After our fishing adventures, we jumped into the cool lake and freshened ourselves up. Sometimes we splashed at each other and played games. In the evening we cooked a delicious trout barbecue. We would like you to be there too!
Your friend

Dear friend.

I am writing to you to tell about the party that took place last weekend at Tom's house.

Dear friend.

I'm writing to tell you about a party that took place last weekend at Tom's house.

Unfortunately, you weren’t there but I hoped to the last moment that you would make it. Nevertheless, I am more than sure that you will visit it next time because I am going to tell you about the party. Unfortunately, you weren't there, but I was before last moment hoped you'd come. However, I am more than sure that you will visit him next time, because I will tell you about that party.
When I came to Tom's house, I decided to help him and started decorating walls with colorful strips. This decoration made a magic atmosphere for the party. While I was helping Tom to prepare drinks, the guests came and joined us to help. A lot of different people gathered there. Such as painters, musicians and writers. The atmosphere was special and warm. I haven’t met those people before but I got the impression like I have known them all my life or I had met them elsewhere. When I arrived at Tom's house, I decided to help him and started decorating the walls with colored ribbons. These decorations made a magical atmosphere for the party.

I haven’t met these people before, but I got the impression that I’ve known them all my life, or have met them somewhere.
I met there a painter Ann. She was wearing a red dress with a big yellow hat. Her look was strange but when she told that she was painter all my doubts disappeared because almost all painters wear strange clothes. Furthermore, she told me that you were her classmate and that she was sorry that you had not come. I gave her your phone number. I met the artist Ann there.

One of the guests was too familiar to me but I didn’t know how I could know him. His name was Andry. It appeared he was a famous musician and he was a cousin of Tom as I learned later. Andry brought some good music and we were dancing all night long. One of the guests knew me well, but I did not understand how I knew him. His name was Andrey. It turned out that he is a famous musician, and as I found out later, he is Tom's cousin. Andrey brought good music and we danced all night long.
Tom cooked a big pizza, which was delicious. A lot of salads were tasty as well. There was a wide choice of juices and sweets too. I should say, it was superb.

Example of a letter to a friend

Dear Helen,
How are the things going on? Did something new happen in your life? Having received your letter, I wanted to answer it immediately. But I was working a lot during the last two weeks. So I was pressed for time and did not manage to carry out my intentions.
In my country spring has already set. It is quite warm and really sunny all days long. Being at work I always imagine myself strolling down some parks. I wish you could join me! It would be funny! Some days ago my friend advised me to read a very interesting book. I did it and I would like you to know this author. Are you ready to read good litterature?
Tell me more about your work and free time. Are you satisfied with all this? What are your plans for this summer? Maybe we will be able to meet one day?
Truly yours,
Jessica

Letter to a friend in English - about school

Dear Emily,
Thank you for your letter. It was great to hear about your new house.
As for my new school it's very big! It has three computer rooms and wonderful sport facilities. Actually, it seems a nice place and I enjoy studying there. The kids in my class are very friendly.
I've already made some new friends and often meet after classes.
I've got only one new subject this year. It’s Economics and I’m beginning to think that it’s not difficult, after all!
By the way, what music styles do you enjoy? Have you got any favorite bands? Would you like to go to their concert? As for me, I prefer Radiohead. They are cool!
I'd better go now.
Lots of love,
Ann
