A decision before an answer
- A friend asks where, when and what to bring. A long reply can still fail if it omits where.
- Your goal: Respond to all three content points in a short email or note.
Read the relationship
- Part 6 asks for a short email or note of 25 words or more. Turn the three prompts into a three-point checklist.
- Use understandable A2 language and organisation.
A message gives time and equipment but no place. It:
The reader cannot know where to go.
Use the defining rule
- Give a direct answer to each content point. Add enough detail for the reader to act.
- Check message purpose, recipient and minimum length.
Choose an appropriate friend greeting:
An informal friend message uses a suitable informal opening.
Check the conditions
- Use short complete sentences and a suitable greeting. Connect related information with and, but or because.
- Check message purpose, recipient and minimum length.
