Hello, teachers. Here are some senteces from a letter.
A) This letter is to you and to the people that meet in your home.
B) My friend, your love has made me happy and has greatly encouraged me.
C) Before this, he was useful to you, but now he is useful both to you and to me.
Are those underlined words essential?
If not, which ones do you prefer, the ones with those underlined words or the ones without them. And, why?
Are there any differences between the ones with those underlined words and the ones without them?
Also, please give me other comments, if any.
Thank you in advance.
