INVITATION
I. Introduction

As we know, a written invitation is more effective than a spoken one. If we invite

someone orally, he/she may forget to come because it is the nature of human to easily forget
something. In making a written invitation, you must be careful to include the following
information:
1. your full address;
2. the date, time, and place;
3. any necessary explanation regarding the kind of event or programme.The format of
personal invitation is similar to the one of personal letter. The illustration is as the following:

indented. The example can be seen on the letter above.

If the closing consists of more than one word, only the first word of the
closing is capitalized.
