Writing skills practice: cómo escribir una postal: How to write a postcard

A postcard from England

A continuación os vamos a mostrar cómo escribir postales en inglés.

Se supone que una postal es enviada a un amigo o familiar por lo que ésta es informal.

Recomendaciones a seguir:
  • Usa contracciones (We're, It's)
  • Comienza la postal a un amigo con "Dear..." o "Hi" y acaba con "See you soon, Love, Write soon, Best wishes"
  • Utiliza varios adjetivos, como por ejemplo "beautiful, amazing,awful, famous"
  • Cuidado tu "Spelling" y gramática.
  • Usa mayúsculas para comenzar la frase después de un punto.
  • Usa "exclamation marks" (!) para dar más énfasis a la frase. Recuerda que en inglés SÓLO se usa al final de la frase, al igual que las interrogativas.
  • Está bien que uses el verbo "have got" para hablar sobre las cosas que puede tener un lugar.
  • Además puedes incluir "There is/are" y preposiciones para describir el lugar.


Writing plan:

  • Write a greeting and start your postcard:
                   Where are you writing from?
  • Write about the town or city
                  What special places has the city got?
                  What can you see? what can you do? (Use have got and there is/there are)
  • Finish your card and check your punctuation, spelling and grammar.
