Spelling Mistakes
Try to proofread your letter for spelling errors, such as 'lose' instead of 'loss,' 'Dubia' instead of 'Dubai,' 'whearas' instead of 'whereas,' 'metting' instead of 'meeting,' 'how ever' should be 'however,' 'I fill' should be 'I filled,' 'wath' instead of 'watch,' 'didnot' should be 'did not,' 'taravel' instead of 'travel,' and 'any' instead of 'and' in 'any pay full refund.' Correct spelling is critical for clear communication.
Sentence Structure
Improve your sentence structure for clarity. For example, 'I am writing this letter to ask you to compensate lose of my watch' could be 'I am writing to request compensation for my lost watch.' Clear and correct sentences help your reader understand your message.
Punctuation
Use proper punctuation to enhance readability. For instance, 'How ever,' should simply be 'However,' without the need for a comma when starting a new sentence.
Paragraph Structure
Ensure each paragraph focuses on a single idea for better coherence. The second paragraph mixes several ideas which could be more clearly separated or connected.
Politeness and Clarity
To make your request clear and polite, consider rephrasing sentences like 'So, I need your experince to judge about this matter any pay full refund.' to 'Therefore, I kindly request a full refund for the watch.'
Task Achievement
You have clearly stated your main request—compensation for the lost watch, which directly addresses the task.
Structure
The letter is structured with a clear beginning, body, and conclusion which aids understanding.
Tone
Your polite tone, beginning with 'Dear sir,' and sign-off 'yours sincerely' are appropriate for the context of the letter.

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.
