You have received an important document that needs to be translated. Write a letter to your friend and ask him/her to translate this important document for you. In your letter, explain - •why it is important for you •how fast you need it back •why you need his/her expertise

Dear friend, I hope my
letter
will find you in good health. I'm elated to share the momentous news that I've
finally
landed my international certification! Which will give me extra credibility.
However
, before I receive my certification at home, I need to write a
letter
in Chinese to the issuer. Since
this
is a once-in-a-blue-moon event for me and my career, and Chinese is your area of expertise, I immediately thought of calling for your aid. I could use an online translation tool, yes. Yet, I know these tools aren't 100% trustworthy and
this
could mean a downgrade in the quality of my
letter
.
In addition
,
this
needs to be sent by the end of the month, so that gives me less than two weeks. With that, I thought of you.
Last
year you mentioned living in China for more than a decade and that you took a Chinese language academic certification.
Thus
, your expertise will make my
letter
the best it can be. It's a pivotal step in my career and I would very much appreciate your assistance.
Finally
, of course, you'll send me an invoice charging me full price and I'll make sure to pay you for your services. Please reply to me if that's something of your interest. I'll always be available by email or cell phone, you can either option to contact me. See you soon and take care. Best regards, David.
