Salutations

[aller en haut]

Avant de commencer votre e-mail, il est important de comprendre la culture d’entreprise de la personne avec qui vous traitez. Est-ce formel ou informel ?

 

Dear Sir/Madam,
Dear [Name],
Hello [Name],
Hi [Name],
Hi Team,
Hi there,
Good morning [Name],
Good afternoon [Name]

Ces salutations fonctionnent dans tous les contextes, que vous envoyiez un e-mail, un message physique ou même que vous deviez envoyer des messages sur LinkedIn en anglais.

Issue number 35402 has been resolved.
Here are the possible solutions:
We could [solution 1], or we could [solution 2]. (e.g. We could add a new button or we could redesign the whole dialog.)
While running the tests, we’ve discovered that [something] is not working properly.
Which option would you like us to work on?
What would you like us to do about [problem]?
The [page, feature, button] is not working the way it should.
The first solution will take about 3 days, and the second one can take up to 10 days.
If we implement the first solution, we can have [possible problems] in the future.
However, the second solution will take much longer, and we cannot give even a rough estimate at the moment.
We’d like to research this problem a bit more in order to give you a more detailed list of options.
What would you like to go with?
Which solution works best for you?
We’ve found a bug in [where].
Here’s how we would like to take care of this issue.

We can see three options.
There are two ways to solve this.
We’ve taken care of bug [name].
We’ve come up with a workaround for this issue.
This solution is better, but it will take longer to implement.
If we go with the first option, we might run into some problems with [topic] in the future.

Évidemment, ces expressions varient dans leur formalité, et il est important de comprendre le contexte dans lequel nous les utilisons. Si vous avez des problèmes de ton et d’inscription, alors une formation d’anglais professionnel vous aidera à comprendre les subtilités de la langue.
