Titles in the introduction
Hi,
Please, clarify whether it is correct to use titles, when addressing a letter or in the introduction.
For example: To the attention of Dir. John Smith, Eng. Mark Carter, or
Dear Mr. Director, Dear Mr. Mayor.
And where to put proffessional titles (e.g. Prof., Dr., Eng.)?
I'm from Poland where use of such titles in the introductions is very common, but how it is in English?
Thanks a lot,
magda
