Dear Mr Smith, I am writing
this
letter to request a leave for 10-days from the
next
Monday onwards. As you know quite well, I had not taken any off for the past 6 months.
However
, now my mother underwent emergency surgery due to which, I need to take care of her for a quick recovery. Apart from that, I need to manage all household chores and my one-year-old daughter. I need to mention that, I already completed my assigned project a couple of days back, so there is nothing pending from my side.
Moreover
, I made an arrangement
such
that Mr James fills me in my absence to look over any emergency tasks. On top of that, you can always reach me on my number in case of any high-priority project so that, I can work remotely. I assure you that there will not be any problem with covering the work. I eagerly await your positive response on
this
matter. Yours sincerely, P.Praveena.

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.
