For an informal letter, you can begin with

Dear (name of person)/ Hi (name of person)/ Hello (name of person)

Leave a line, then write the contents of your letter. It's typical to ask how the person you're writing to is doing in the first paragraph, but there are no real rules to this.

When you're done, you sign off on the left. A few common ways to do this are:

Best wishes

(your name)

 

Sincerely

(your name)

 

Love

(your name)

 

For a formal letter, people tend to only use 'Dear', from my experience.

In the first paragraph, you should state the purpose of your letter. For example, if you are writing an application, you could say: 'I am writing to apply for X.'

After that, you continue with the rest of your content. 

At the end, we typically thank the person for their time with a phrase like: 'Thank you for your kind attention. I hope you will consider my proposal/ application/etc. and I eagerly await your reply.'

In formal letters, you usually sign off with:

 

Yours faithfully

(Your name)

 

Hope this helps!

When writing letters, I often adhere to a few rules. Here they are. You can read it. At one time they helped me a lot!

Rules for writing unofficial letters:
Please write your full name and address, even if it is an unofficial letter.
Divide your letter into small paragraphs.
Please keep it simple.
Choose your words correctly, especially if you are writing a letter of apology or a condolence letter in case of death.
Most people close the letter with phrases like "Love / Love / Best wishes / Take care" etc.

Rules for writing official letters:
Let's take a look at a few basic rules for writing formal letters:

Before starting the letter, you need to write your full name, address, and date.
Contact the person you are writing to with the correct name and designation.
It is always recommended to start the letter with the words “Dear Sir / Madam” or “Dear Sir / Madam,” and then mention the name and address.
Before you start writing the letter, you must specify the letter's purpose on one line with the heading "Subject."
Your letter should be self-explanatory and contain only the information you need.
