Task 1 Letter tips: request letter language

Some more formal request letter language

Please is the magic word! To make the request more polite, try using Please would or Please could. 

The structure is

Please + could + you + verb   e.g. Please could you send this back by return

Two alternative words are grateful and appreciate. They have slightly different structures so be careful:

would appreciate + it + if     e.g. I would appreciate it if you sent this back by return

would be grateful + if +     e.g. I would be grateful if you sent this back by return
