. While most of these beliefs have rooted in patriotism, there are some remedies for

issue, as we will discuss here. These opinions about the harmful effects of international
tourism
come from a history of rage and conflict between the nations, making them mostly exaggerated and revengeful. Iran,

The Greeting

Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.

Always start an informal letter in the ways:

  • Dear + name
  • Hi / Hello + name

‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.

For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:

  • Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
  • Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
