📖 Key Definitions

Formal letter — to officials, principal, editor; follows the 7-part order.
Informal letter — to friends/family; address + date only, friendly tone.
Notice — short public announcement, max 50 words, boxed format.
Report — factual account of an event/incident, written in past tense, third person.
Linkers — connecting words that join ideas smoothly (however, therefore, moreover).

Format ke order ratne ki trick: Letter me "S-D-R-S-S-B-S" (Sender, Date, Receiver, Subject, Salutation, Body, Subscription). Notice me box banana mat bhoolo — bina box ke marks kat-te hain. Linkers ke 10 words ek baar zor se bol kar yaad karo, paragraph me 3-4 zaroor use karo.
