You will learn to

Write a request that names you, your reader, the exact task and the language you want the answer in.

Why this matters

A two-word request comes back as a blank format that still has to be filled in by hand. The words you add at the start are the ones you do not have to fix at the end.

Three things to remember

  • Name yourself, your reader and the exact task in the first line.
  • Name the language you want the answer written in.
  • Name the shape and the limit: a message, a list, four lines.

A useful starting pointFive things: you, the reader, the task, the language, the length.
