. After coming back home, I realised that I forgot my wallet on the study desk of the room, where I slept. I kept it aside while booking my cab to the airport and forgot to take it in a hurry. I would request you to kindly courier it to my residence address as early as possible as my driving license and bank cards are there in it. I am so sorry for troubling you. Convey my regards to your parents. With love, Siri

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
