英语便条的写法

1.道歉便条（Note of Apology）

具体内容：写这类便条时，一般首先向对方道歉，承认中间的错误，而后解释原因，最后提出弥补或补救的具体措施。

举例说明：

May 4th ,2006

Dear Professor Brown,

I would like to express my apologies for not being able to keep our appointment for I had some urgent business to deal with out of town and did not come back until next morning(道歉并解释未能赴约的具体原因). Could we arrange another appointment some time next week(提出补救的措施：是否能另行安排时间见面)？

Sorry for any inconveniences(再次对由此带来的不便表示歉意).

Yours sincerely,

Wang Ping 在写这类便条时，我们要注意这样一个细节。解释原因时要具体，不能只简单地说I’ve got something urgent or more important to do,这样写有可能使对方误解，似乎你不重视与对方的约定，或者是听起来像是托词、借口。

常用表达法：

I sincerely apologize for…

I must apologize for (not)doing…

Please excuse me for my carelessness.

I’m afraid…

I fell awful about…
