10 Ways to Finish an Email in English ?? - Learn English with Harry

10 Ways to Finish an Email in English ?? - Learn English with Harry Welcome back to my English grammar lessons. This is Harry. So what have I got for you today? Well, Ive got some ways to finish an email in English.I have to admit, this is not the most exciting thing Ive ever done, but these are really practical suggestions for you. Its amazing how many times people ask me: How do I start and how do I end an email in English?So were going to focus today on the end of the email.Its not the same as a letter because in most cases, letters are quite formal. But when were using email, even if were using them to the boss or somebody a little bit more important than ourselves then its always informal.   10 Ways to Finish an Email in English Some of it is the same as we use them letters, but sometimes its different and sometimes people dont sign off on their emails at all.So the first one is just the word REGARDS.So youve finished whatever youre saying and then you just put regards, Harry. So its just a very, very simple way.Usually that means that you know the person reasonably well.Number two is a little bit similar to number one. Here were using the expression BEST REGARDS or KIND REGARDS.Now, this is very similar to the letter format, but again, its about people that you know, and it might be somebody on a personal level rather than on a business email.Best regards, HarryKind regards, DadBest regards, MumWere just giving the person our best wishes for whatever we have happened to tell them. So I say its very, very informal but you dont like to sign off too formally. So you want to give something less formal but not too informal. So best regards or kind regards.Number three on my list is ALL THE BEST.So here, its real ly for somebody who is not so close to you, but youd like to be kind. You like to be polite, okay? So youd use this sort of expression all the best. So it means all the best for the future. All the best for your business. All the best in your adventure, whatever it might be. Just all the best. Meaning your best wishes, youre giving it all to the person that youre writing to.So all the best Harry and sign off and press that button and off the email goes, okay.And here we are with number four and number four is BEST WISHES. Now here again, this is impersonal in some ways. You dont know the person so well that definitely not a close friend, that definitely not a member of your family, but theres somebody that you, you wish again to be polite so best wishes Harry.So it could be to members of your team in the office. It could be something, somebody thats is supplying you with some particular service.  Or indeed, it could be somebody that you are dealing with in a business and theyre no l onger going to be your account manager or theyre no longer going to be the main contact in that business.  So you write them a nice note to say:Oh, its been great working for you over the last few years. I really wish you the very best for your future career. Best wishes. 10 Ways to Finish an Email in English Don't keep this to yourself, tell the world Okay, were halfway there. So this is number five and number five is THANKS or indeed MANY THANKS.So this is usually a signature you would use over a series of a number of emails that youve been writing back and forth to somebody playing a little bit of ping pong.So youve asked them a question, theyve given you some information, youve asked them for something else, theyve given you some
