00:00.720 --> 00:06.960
OK everybody we are now going to go through our second live example.

00:06.960 --> 00:13.920
And for this second live example we're going to be looking at a semi-formal letter because we're writing

00:13.920 --> 00:16.580
a letter to a manager looks like.

00:16.920 --> 00:24.630
So as I said in the previous lecture I am going to be writing this live so I'm not going to be able

00:24.630 --> 00:26.520
to necessarily be talking all the time.

00:26.520 --> 00:28.670
I know some people say well why aren't we talking more.

00:28.670 --> 00:30.750
We'll stop and explain please.

00:30.750 --> 00:36.190
I stopped and explained in section 2 of this lecture series right.

00:36.210 --> 00:41.700
This is about me writing something live so you can witness and see progression.

00:41.700 --> 00:47.790
Step by step by step what I'm able to talk and stop and talk and explain.

00:47.790 --> 00:56.130
I will but I'm trying to move through it and finish in a timely fashion and give you the ability to

00:56.130 --> 01:01.740
really see the parts happening live because that's what you need to be able to do on paper.

01:01.740 --> 01:02.320
OK.

01:02.610 --> 01:05.880
So let's get started.

01:05.880 --> 01:12.780
This is the year that you have seen an advertisement of a valuable piece of equipment write a letter

01:12.780 --> 01:17.530
to your manager and ask to buy that product to be used in your company.

01:17.700 --> 01:19.950
Include the following in your letter.

01:19.950 --> 01:25.650
What the equipment is how it can be useful for the company and describe the procedure for buying the

01:25.690 --> 01:26.850
whip.

01:26.850 --> 01:32.310
So the first step that we have to do as always is to do an outline.

01:32.610 --> 01:38.840
You've seen from all the examples that I've done so far every example that I've done so far you've seen

01:38.860 --> 01:42.010
it happen the exact same way.

01:42.020 --> 01:42.830
All right.

01:43.200 --> 01:45.960
It doesn't matter what type of letter ready.

01:46.020 --> 01:47.690
It's the same strategy.

01:47.850 --> 01:48.880
OK.

01:49.120 --> 01:55.050
Because the same notion same strategy because language changes whether it's formal or informal.

01:55.080 --> 01:58.590
It's the same structure and organization as put it that way.

01:58.590 --> 01:59.190
All right.

01:59.520 --> 02:01.430
So let's get started.

02:01.480 --> 02:07.260
And we're going to get started with doing an outline outline I need to address these three parts what

02:07.260 --> 02:13.330
the equipment is how it can be useful and describe the procedure for buying.

02:14.970 --> 02:19.560
So we have an outline.

02:19.710 --> 02:20.220
One

02:24.070 --> 02:28.120
we're going to buy an all inclusive

02:31.000 --> 02:31.900
recording.

02:31.900 --> 02:34.450
How about that.

02:34.480 --> 02:38.270
One thing that I recommend you do write about what you know.

02:38.650 --> 02:38.950
Right.

02:38.950 --> 02:48.430
If you're a software engineer by software equipment if you are a nurse by some nursing equipment if

02:48.430 --> 02:50.490
you're a dentist by dental equipment.

02:50.560 --> 02:50.940
Right.

02:50.950 --> 02:58.150
So if you're a social worker buys some pens and pencils I guess I don't know but buy buy buy equipment

02:58.150 --> 02:59.040
that you know.

02:59.160 --> 03:00.520
OK.

03:01.060 --> 03:02.080
Right about what you know

03:04.700 --> 03:11.140
part to you should be up there.

03:11.450 --> 03:14.710
How can that be useful.

03:14.740 --> 03:23.330
Look for lessons on line courses.

03:24.130 --> 03:30.130
Remember a lot of the ideas I'm thinking about may not actually use all those ideas but I'm just trying

03:30.130 --> 03:37.630
to get things out of my head so I can focus on how I want to write.

03:38.370 --> 03:40.360
If I use online order form

03:43.620 --> 03:49.980
provide dimensions Spillman will really help out outline it doesn't really matter.

03:49.980 --> 03:57.320
But to use color that's built right.

03:57.690 --> 03:58.690
Yeah right.

03:58.720 --> 04:05.130
So I've done an outline of doing an outline is really really helpful.

04:05.820 --> 04:06.620
Okay.

04:07.020 --> 04:18.230
And when I write this to our manager Mr. Campbell and the main here and.

04:19.060 --> 04:19.340
All right.

04:19.400 --> 04:25.790
So dear Mr. Campbell it's ok since as a manager as a manager it's OK to use their last name.

04:25.790 --> 04:35.360
You didn't say Dear Sir Madam Bray is semi-formal so be dear Mr. Campbell dear Mrs. Williams dear dear

04:35.480 --> 04:38.380
whatever you want to put it that's OK.

04:38.820 --> 04:41.410
And then I start out with arke introduction.

04:41.930 --> 04:42.270
OK

05:40.530 --> 05:45.900
when you quit we should consider.

05:46.040 --> 05:49.820
Right now we have a very very good compound complex sentence.

05:49.820 --> 05:59.090
We have a very good sentence there that is going to really impress the greater right.

05:59.090 --> 06:06.350
Really impress the greater a lot.

06:07.270 --> 06:11.350
As the manager of our department you previously request we bring to your attention any good ideas to

06:11.350 --> 06:12.920
improve our capabilities.

06:13.150 --> 06:17.040
And I've come across some equipment we should consider.

06:17.560 --> 06:19.930
Next up the talk about what the equipment is

06:37.940 --> 06:39.380
and B you discuss.

06:39.410 --> 06:40.400
We discussed

07:11.460 --> 07:12.020
right now.

07:12.040 --> 07:16.400
You know as I said this equipment fits the bill that's more colloquial language.

07:16.400 --> 07:23.030
Well it's OK here and I want to do it too much but it's ok here because this is a semi-formal letter.

07:23.270 --> 07:56.170
If this were a formal really formal letter I wouldn't put something like fits the bill.

07:56.170 --> 08:01.330
You know I want to say it is I don't mean to say it's

08:11.680 --> 08:12.000
write

08:20.350 --> 08:21.220
in addition

08:33.980 --> 08:36.080
to built in the telescreens for

08:38.810 --> 08:43.310
microphone sound buffer

08:45.800 --> 08:50.770
and document holder right.

08:50.810 --> 08:54.500
So they are kind describe the equipment what the equipment is

08:59.620 --> 09:04.760
and then we have to move onto the next part about how it can be useful for the company.

09:18.260 --> 09:20.330
The usefulness for our company is undeniable.

09:20.340 --> 09:27.000
He now gets the controlling idea of what this next paragraph is going to be about and going to discuss

09:46.590 --> 09:47.840
we will be able to

09:51.550 --> 09:52.310
properly

10:16.940 --> 10:18.120
equally important

10:32.440 --> 10:50.200
enable us into the online course market sense we can do all of our recordings in that house.

10:52.870 --> 10:58.330
The wired standard production

11:02.320 --> 11:09.520
what do you think so far do you think I'm convincing my manager right is the semi-formal letter right.

11:13.010 --> 11:16.200
Should be to our right.

11:16.610 --> 11:27.200
And then we have to write about the next par which is described the procedure described your procedure

11:27.200 --> 11:29.170
for buying the equipment

11:42.530 --> 11:45.190
right.

11:45.660 --> 11:53.960
Again you're seeing a short topic sentence here to kind of introduce where we're moving onto.

11:54.110 --> 11:59.530
Or you have to take somebody's hand and you have to walk through where you're going.

11:59.720 --> 12:03.740
You have to take them in the direction that you want them to go.

12:27.530 --> 12:30.260
You have to fill out a piece of wood in order for.

12:30.340 --> 12:36.650
Now the good thing is that I already have my outline so I don't have to think about what I need to do.

12:55.430 --> 13:00.930
When you go by the booth dimensions needed

13:05.180 --> 13:10.670
and the color palette for the whole site

13:14.540 --> 13:17.090
right there is our next letter.

13:17.090 --> 13:17.500
Right.

13:17.550 --> 13:22.660
And then we're missing what guys we just need our conclusion.

13:22.820 --> 13:26.530
I really hope we can

13:29.400 --> 13:32.840
quickly and this is a semi informal.

13:33.150 --> 13:40.730
If this were if this were a formal letter I would probably say we should write we should so semi-formal.

13:40.740 --> 13:43.250
I hope you're getting the idea of the tone

14:07.730 --> 14:09.700
you feel a little

14:13.820 --> 14:19.550
in the next quarter.

14:20.180 --> 14:20.560
Right.

14:20.630 --> 14:23.120
And there we have it.

14:23.260 --> 14:26.040
We going to give them a whole Best regards

14:31.480 --> 14:38.710
from good ole.

14:38.930 --> 14:43.880
Best regards from Kevin Smith.

14:45.050 --> 14:45.520
Right.

14:45.600 --> 14:49.430
And we're going to give Kevin actually a title is not necessary.

14:49.440 --> 14:49.970
I hate.

14:50.010 --> 14:52.080
Yes.

14:55.220 --> 14:57.950
I guess that's what happens.

14:57.970 --> 14:59.650
That's what happens when you're writing live.

14:59.650 --> 15:01.270
You make mistakes.

15:01.270 --> 15:05.060
All right so there we have our letter everybody.

15:06.190 --> 15:06.790
All right.

15:06.880 --> 15:09.140
And a word Cal

15:12.530 --> 15:17.730
is just a little over to 13.

15:18.520 --> 15:24.700
We have a scarlet letter in and what really helped me to be able to write it so quickly and write it

15:24.850 --> 15:32.260
right so quickly is that I add an outline in front of me and then outline enable me to just write and

15:32.260 --> 15:37.060
keep going and know what the idea is and focus on how I want to say it.

15:37.240 --> 15:37.870
OK.

15:38.260 --> 15:39.470
So I hope you enjoy that.

15:39.520 --> 15:48.740
And we have one more live writing for a formal letter formal letter that will kind of go live through

15:48.740 --> 15:50.710
we'll show you how to do so.

15:50.740 --> 15:53.380
I hope this is working out well for you.

15:53.380 --> 15:59.250
I want you to really study hard work hard do your best work on your application of theory.

15:59.320 --> 16:01.840
OK I'll talk to you soon in the next lecture.
