教你写英文贺卡

Have you seen a picture of a little bride and groom?So it's for weddings.In China we send wedding cards as well. Often we're enclosed with money. And then this one is happy

anniversary.And if you know someone, especially at that time, if you're remembering their wedding or if you were in thei r wedding perhaps, you might send them a card to remind them. And what's the right thing to write?

Well if somebody is getting married, we always s ay "Congratulations", don't we?

"Congratulations on your happy day or on your wedding!". And "Congratulations on your anniversary!"

After the wedding comes the next card. "Congratulations on your new baby!"

This one says "a little boy". But anytime there's a birth of a child, you could write "Congratulations on the birth of your new baby" or "On the birth of your child."

There're other kinds of congratulations that you might want to do. For example, if someone moves to a new home, you might write someone a little card and say " Congratulations on your new home", or……

Or your new job. That's very common because people do change jobs. Usually you change for the better, get a better job. So it's nice to remember somebody with a card. This one just says "Congratulations". I recently sent it to a young man who graduated from school. And I think this is a standard note. My whole family signed it and we told him "good luck in the future", since he had just finished school.

The last category is very important for those crazy foreigners who are always saying "thank you".

In Western culture, one of the most important thing is to say "please" and "thank you". So in a "thank you" card you might begin by saying, "Dear……" good friend, good

neighbor, their name. And then say thank you for whatever it was, you buying me dinner, helping me with something.

when you write a "thank you " card you don't have to write a lot. And inside it's bland;

"thank you" is on the outside. You just write "Thank you for the lovely dinner "; "Thank you for the wonderful outing";"Thank you for the lovely gift. ."

Those are all good.And you should have at least two "thank you's" in the note, at the beginning and at the end. So it does seem like too much. But we want to go over how to close these. Some endings would be……You might end a love card with "I love you " or "Much love". But you might end a friendship card with "fondly", which means fondness and friendship, or "Your friend,Jack", or "I'm thinking of you,Rose ." And "thank you", you would end with "Thanks again".

Yes, this is a good one to remember, because in a "thank you" card, at the beginning you might say "Thank you for the wonderful evening", "We had such a good time being with you", and whoever, "in your new house." Thanks again.

And a more formal one you might say, say it's your boss's son who graduated, you don't know him well. He is not a personal friend. But you send a card, you might say "Best regards" or "Best wishes" or "All the best". Those are all good ways to finish the note and then sign your name.

So if you have to write a card and you need to write it to an English speaker, now this should give you some good ideas on what to say inside your cards.

篇三:英文贺卡及其写作方式

浅谈英文贺卡及其写作方式

[摘要] 《新编实用英语综合教程》第一册第二单元中讲授了英文贺卡 (greeting/congratulation cards)。本文旨在探讨英美贺卡文化以及英文贺卡的写作方式与常用贺词。在现代社会交际中, 贺卡起着越来越重要的作用。每当节日、生日、婚礼等喜庆日子以及各种周年纪念日临近时, 亲友之间寄上一张精美的贺卡, 致以良好的祝愿, 以示庆贺,这样既有助于感情沟通, 又能起到加深友谊的作用。

[关键词] 英文贺卡英语教学格式贺词语言特点

节日祝福可以说是全世界的共同语言,而历史最悠久、最传统的祝福方式则是用纸质贺卡传递的祝福,在物质生活泛滥、文化生活苍白的今天,相互间寄发一纸贺卡显得尤为可贵。温馨雅致而又简朴的贺卡,烘托渲染温馨的节日气氛,相比单纯于物欲的追求无疑是一种较高层次的精神慰藉和情感交流。在现代通讯日渐发达的今天,贺卡这一传统的祝福方式在国外仍是最通用的祝福方式,受到国外人们的普遍欢迎,他们更是在平常的日子把贺卡作为一种维系感情的桥梁,随时随地的传达着爱和真挚的情感。

一、浅谈英美贺卡文化

(一)英国贺卡介绍

美丽而精致的卡片对英国人来说,不止是生活的点缀,还是生活的必需品。英国人看上去矜持、冷漠,但内心的感情却是非常丰富的,而且他们更愿意使用文字和色彩来传达情意。所以在英国,每

个城镇都有很多专门出售贺卡的商店,如大超市、小商店、文具店,图书馆等都有贺卡专柜。书架上一层层排列得满满当当的让人满目淋漓、五彩缤纷的贺卡都被仔细地分成“给爸爸”、“给妈妈”、“给儿媳妇”等类型。每种类型的卡又有几十种完全不同措辞的温馨祝福及问候, 内容相当丰富。每个人在圣诞节都会收到许多圣诞卡,所以圣诞卡和圣诞树一样,是西方圣诞文化的一部分。由于英国近年提倡简单生活,有些家庭不再买圣诞树,但圣诞卡却绝不能没有。所有的人家都把收到的圣诞卡摆放在家里最显眼的地方,有的在壁炉上方的台面上层层排列;有的在长条案几上一溜排开;还有的在一面墙上拉几根细绳,打开的贺卡一排排挂在绳子上,像海军舰艇在隆重欢迎仪式上和节日里挂满的彩旗。除了圣诞节、复活节等节日要送贺卡,母亲节和父亲节贺卡肯定也是少不了的。另外一些特殊的日子也要送卡,如祝贺出生,订婚、结婚和结婚周年也有特定的贺卡。此外像探病、感谢、升职、毕业、道歉或者一个简单的问候都有对应的卡片,更甚者有专门送给小猫小狗等宠物的卡片,英国人的生活似乎真离不开送卡,什么日子都不亲自说,送张卡就表达自己内心的情意了。英国人的家庭关系也不像我们中国人这样紧密,因此“圣诞节”、生日、“母亲节”、“父亲节”这些特殊日子的贺卡就显得格外重要。还有一些多年不见的朋友,甚至儿时的伙伴,都靠一年一度的圣诞卡维系着友情。

(二)美国贺卡面面观

美国地方大,人口3亿多,一年中法定的节假日就有近30个之多,

因此贺卡的生意在美国市场上十分兴旺。在美国,出售贺卡的地方很多。除专卖商店外,在其它任何商店、超市,几乎都可以看到贺卡的“货架”。规模大的,有十来个货架,出售所有种类的贺卡,每类的贺卡数量很多,挑选的余地大。规模小的,只有一两个货架,出售常用种类的贺卡。

美国人认为只有电话、贺卡才是表达祝福的最佳方式,并形成了体现美国人文风采的贺卡文化。美国政府在贺卡文化的推广上同样不遗余力,美国邮政每年都要举办规模庞大的贺卡及书信月活动。在活动中,用户登录相关网站订购贺卡,之后,就会收到美国邮政寄来的免费贺卡和一个邮资信封。美国邮政希望用户放下手机和掌上电脑,花几分钟时间用手中的笔书写贺卡,用实物贺卡替代电子邮件或短信。通过美国邮政寄递的实物信息可以保存几年,甚至几个世纪,而不会因为点了一个键就被删除。他们的首席营销官就曾在某年的贺卡与书信活动月中表示:“信函和明信片属于个人所有,你可以把它们拿在手中,你可以一遍一遍地读它们,你可以永久地保留它们。而这些都是电子邮件和短信无法做到的。”

按美国人的传统习俗,每当圣诞节来临前,人们会在家里布置圣诞树、装饰房子和院子,为家人买圣诞节礼物,给朋友寄送圣诞节贺卡。其实,不仅在圣诞节时要送贺卡,在平时的生活中贺卡是必不可少的。作为一个提倡民主与包容的国家,美国的贺卡种类可算是各式其式,大凡婚丧嫁娶、福禄寿大喜、门户添丁、病后康复、逢凶化吉、学业或事业有成等人生中的事情,甚至个人的喜怒哀乐

都会是贺卡的内容。比如:生日卡、结婚卡、得子卡、毕业卡,还有慰问卡、感谢卡、道歉卡、邀请卡、提示卡,遇上节假日,他们更是把寄送贺卡相互庆贺,看成是联系感情的绝佳方式。可以说,在美国,你想表达任何情感,你都会找到相应的“卡”来代你表达。在美国人的生活中,“卡”无处不在。不仅卡的种类繁多,而且某一类卡也有很多分类。比如,在生日类卡里,有按关系设计的生日卡,如:送给妈妈的,送给外婆的,送给姐姐的,送给妹夫的,送给侄子的,送给朋友等等任何关系。还有按年龄设计的生日卡,如一岁生日卡,十八岁生日卡,五十岁生日卡等等,如此详细的分类设计,十分人性化,体现了人们彼此之间的尊重和重视。从卡的风格上,又可分为两类,正式和非正式的。正式的卡,从封面图案到内页文字都比较严谨、严肃。而非正式的卡,从封面图案到内页文字却是非常轻松、幽默。从这里,看到了美国人即传统,又风趣的个性。

美国的贺卡不仅种类多,卡的设计也是五花八门。有平面的,立体的,有声的,多页叠加的,动物的,卡通人物的等等,非常生动、形象。先进的工艺和材料的应用,让贺卡这个古老而又传统的情感交流工具,随着社会的进步,不断丰富和提高。此外,还有一种很个性的贺卡,就是人们自己“制造”的贺卡。美国人喜欢自制创意的贺卡,这与美国崇尚个性民族文化密切相关。他们喜欢一家大小,各自发挥创意,设计各式各样的精美贺卡,他们还喜欢将一家人的合影照片,或孩子们的照片当作贺卡的

图案,自己编写贺卡内的文

字,再加上漂亮的版面设计和精美的小装饰,让这种贺卡极富亲情,令人感觉非常亲切。在新年时把这样的自制贺卡寄送给亲朋好友,一方面是表达祝福,同时向亲朋好友传递家庭幸福美满的生活现状。

美国的贺卡文化同样渗透了商业领域。可以说,贺卡是企业与客户联系的桥梁,每逢节日,企业就会准备精美别致的贺卡,写上祝福语,给每个客户寄去。美国贺卡文化也受到了美国历届总统的喜爱,从艾森豪威尔到布什,有10位美国总统签发过圣诞贺卡。据 《科学新生活》报道,2004年圣诞节,美国总统布什及其夫人共送出200万张贺卡,超过当年全美邮寄圣诞贺卡总数的千分之一,堪称世界之最。

二、英文贺卡的写作方式

(一)贺卡的格式

英文贺卡一般包括称呼、贺词、签名三个部分。

称呼(salutation)

称呼是指祝贺人对受贺人的称呼,一般写在卡片的左上方,从左边顶格写起并自成一行。称呼后面需加标点,英国人习惯于用逗号,而美国人则习惯于用冒号。称呼中的每个词的开头字母必须大写。称呼前可用也可不用“to”。如,to

mr.(mrs.,professor,director,dean,president,etc.)××。 贺词(greeting/congratulation words)

贺词另起一段,并且要空开四个字符,主要写一些固定的祝贺或
