Recently, because of my job requirements, I have to write some diplomatical letters to my business partners. For example, invitations, applogy for meeting postpone and so on. Sometime I confuse if I wrote perlite enough or If English speakers do use such sentences as I used to use in those letters ( My English is not good enough) . How can I have better skill of writting diplomatical letters? Can somebody help me?
