 letter in regard to the flat which I rented. Unfortunately, it is not possible for me to stay there until January as I have to move from there because my internship date and location have changed and I have to go to another city. I know our contract is for 1 year and I am completing the arrangement as I have to move before the contract finishes. I know that here is my fault and I apologize for the inconvenience. I want you to ask to finish the contract before it expires and I will be ready to pay for expenses and for the rent for two months. Thank you for your cooperation and I am looking forward to hearing from you soon. Yours Sincerely, Simi

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.
