For those who need to learn Portuguese for work, today’s post will come in handy. We’re going to learn how to write a formal e-mail in Portuguese, including the salutation and leave-taking. There are ways to write even more formally, but we’re going to learn the simpler version.<\/p>\n
1. Salutation<\/strong><\/p>\n A formal salutation to use is Prezado Senhor<\/em> or Prezada Senhora<\/em>, depending on the gender (senhor is male, senhora is female). You can also use Senhores<\/em>, if you’re writing to more than one person.<\/p>\n 2. Body of the e-mail<\/strong><\/p>\n Here are some key phrases you might need:<\/p>\n Quero agradecer<\/em> (I’d like to thank you…)<\/p>\n Encaminho em anexo<\/em> (I’m sending you an attachment)<\/p>\n Solicito essa oportunidade<\/em> (I’m seeking this opportunity)<\/p>\n Venho enviar a documenta\u00e7\u00e3o<\/em> (I’m sending you the documentation)<\/p>\n 3. Leave-taking<\/strong><\/p>\n The most common way to sign off a formal email is with Atenciosamente<\/em> (sincerely). Here are some other ones you can use:<\/p>\n Sem mais, agrade\u00e7o desde j\u00e1,\u00a0 <\/em>(And with that, I thank you in advance) Com meus cumprimentos, <\/em>(Greetings)
