When would you address a person in an email as, ‘Dear’? Or do you just write, Hi falaana dhamkana,
I NEVER use Dear for work related emails. However, anything else, I tend to… is there a rule of thumb or pinky on usage of the word dear in emails?
Re: Dear When!
oh my god you know someone called "falaana dhamkana" too?..small world.
I only write "dear" in letters, never emails...emails always begin with a greeting

Re: Dear When!
I can't remember the last time I used 'Dear' on any mail or email. I don't use it at all. If its my family .. its 'Dearest'... everyone else just gets a polite greeting.
Re: Dear When!
Madhanee, I wana climb anything but the corporate ladder.

Re: Dear When!
It's gay to start an e-mail with Dear. That's for formal letters only :p
Just say: 'Hi Falaanay' or 'Hello Dhimkaanay' or something like that. :)
Re: Dear When!
I wouldnt use Dear, I always just say Hey or Hi...........
Re: Dear When!
I use dear in formal letters, and if I have to email them and I dont know the person I write 'dear', especially potential employers. To my Prof I write "Hi Garth!".
Re: Dear When!
So using dear for a girl would be considered a step up?
Re: Dear When!
