Recently you saw an article in a a newspaper about a city/town you know and some of the information in the article was incorrect. Write a letter to the editor regarding this. In this letter, you should tell: * How you know about this city/town * What information was incorrect * What the editor should do about this Write at least 150 words.

I am writing
this
letter to inform you about a piece that was published in the newspaper yesterday.
This
article was written about a town, Nurata, where I lived for a long time.
Therefore
, I know the culture and history of
this
city very well.
However
, while I read your article, I saw that there were some mistakes.
First
of all, one of the mistakes is that the museums in
this
city were built by Islom Samanov.
However
, it is not a true statement, because I know
this
place many times and it was the museum of another person.
Also
, information about the area is incorrect in it.
Thus
I should admit that you need to publish
this
article again. And, I hope you do not any mistakes your newspaper in the
next
time. Yours faithfully. Mohini Shodmonova.

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.
