With the increase in the use of mobile phones and computers, fewer people are writing letters. Some people think that the traditional skill of writing letters will disappear completely. To what extent do you agree or disagree? How important do you think is letter-writing?

It is irrefutable that in today's era of modern

technology

Use synonyms

, many people struggle to produce

letters

Use synonyms

and often avoid writing

letters

Use synonyms

altogether.

While

Linking Words

I agree that

technology

Use synonyms

has impacted the traditional

skill

Use synonyms

of writing

letters

Use synonyms

, I do not agree that

this

Linking Words

skill

Use synonyms

will die completely as it is still very important. Admittedly, modern

technology

Use synonyms

has reduced the need for traditional

letters

Use synonyms

.

Firstly

Linking Words

e-mails are much faster and cheaper than traditional

letters

Use synonyms

.

That is

Linking Words

why these days people are much more likely to email someone than write a

letter

Use synonyms

.

In addition

Linking Words

, business communications have become more informal than in the past.

As a result

Linking Words

, a less formal style of writing is more acceptable. Other forms of communication

such

Linking Words

as text messaging have reduced the need to write

letters

Use synonyms

even more.

However

Linking Words

, there are times when there is no alternative to writing a

letter

Use synonyms

.

Letters

Use synonyms

are generally more formal and carefully composed than emails

Letters

Use synonyms

provide a written record, so they are better in the case of official complaints or legal matters.

Also

Linking Words

, traditional

letters

Use synonyms

are more suitable for occasions when they are likely to be kept and re-read by the recipient,

such

Linking Words

as

letters

Use synonyms

of thanks or condolences, as these have sentimental value.

Letter

Use synonyms

writing is a very important

skill

Use synonyms

to learn because the impact of the handwritten message has a more lasting impression on the recipient than any other form of communication

technology

Use synonyms

can offer.

In addition

Linking Words

, handwritten

letters

Use synonyms

are lasting memories.

For example

Linking Words

, my father has a bunch of handwritten

letters

Use synonyms

that his grandfather wrote to him when he was in college. He has carefully put them in a file and shown them to us as a prized possession. Even though these

letters

Use synonyms

may be written on computers rather than by hand, one should still learn and practise

this

Linking Words

skill

Use synonyms

.

To sum up

Linking Words

, there are fewer times when we need to write

letters

Use synonyms

than in the past.

However

Linking Words

, I feel there are still some important occasions when a

letter

Use synonyms

is the most appropriate form of communication and so the traditional

letter

Use synonyms

will not die in the foreseeable future.
