When will we use notes? • In the workplace or in our daily life, we may find that the person we’re looking for isn’t available so it is always necessary to leave a message. Notes are used for this purpose.
Points for attention • A note is like a short letter with only one or two lines. • It is usually hand written. • Its tone may be either formal or informal depending upon the people and the situation. • It is be used to express apology, thanks, invitation or to ask for leave.
