Hi alwasi,

What do you mean, the plural form?

You have only one name, but you said that "we" have selected this elective.

Please note that I had previously selected Digital Image Processing ( DIP) as my elective course, but have instead decided to complete PHP as my mini-project. Therefore, I respectfully request that you change my elective course to PHP.

Thank you,

If there are two of you, then you need two names, and your original plural pronouns are okay.

"Thank you" is preferred to "Thanking you" as a casual way to end. If you don't want to be casual, then put the "Thank you" in the body of the note.

Hi,

A small additional comment.

Respected Sir/Madam,

This is not natural in the English used in countries like Canada, the UK, the USA. We'd say Dear Sir or Madam.

However, if you see a lot of letters in India that use Respected Sir/Madam, then go ahead and use it.

It's formal, so I''d finish with Yours sincerely.

Best wishes, Clive
