Do you have a regular sign off (either formal or jovial) when you send correspondence to someone? OR....... Do you remember receiving one you rather liked? |

I think these days a sign off seems to have been replaced with 'sent from my iPhone'........ Very odd behaviour...

Not a sign off but my mate always starts his text messages to me with ''Yupterowt'' meaning what are you upto? Are you free?

Just the usual Kind Regards when sending work emails, unless the person I am talking to sends a thanks first then I do the same. No point having some kind of sign off in casual communication. Newt |

Really depends on the situ. I don't do all the hi/bye shyte, waste of time, and if you know who you're talking to then why would i even give my name..? I just answered a message on ebay tho. He was definitely a he, so i responded 'Hello fella' as ya do, and he got a 'Cheers, Mikey' because my username on there isn't my name. Not quite the case at work. There, my emails just have my name, nothing else. It's just like a sign-out. A type-written signature, if you will... ''...and this is the end of the email. Mikey ***** |

Usually best regards or kind regards. If it's formal it will often end yours faithfully. |

I don't know really, usually something like 'talk again soon'. And by that I mean 'please let me go now, I don't want to talk anymore. I don't want to offend you, and it's not you, I just need to stop talking now.'

It depends entirely on who I am communicating with ... there used to be etiquette rules about sign offs ...when you should use 'faithfully' 'sincerely ' etc But people used pens then ...

@ notsabad - 13.10.19 - 03:52pm I like how you let them know exactly where the email ends... I was inspired by my school books, they all said 'The End' at the end. Then we did the whole 'Over' thing on the CB radio. It seems fitting to sign out of every email. That's what they do in chat. End of message, talk later B - Mikey |

I generally use the formal writing rules for signing off letters, I don't actually remember the last time I wrote a letter that wasn't formal in nature. If you start your letter with the recipient's name, i.e 'Dear Joe Bloggs', then you should always sign off with 'Your's Sincerely' before your signature. If you don't know the recipient's name and started with 'Dear Sir/Madam', then you sign off with 'Your's Faithfully'.
