15 Contoh Surat Pribadi dalam Bahasa Inggris untuk Teman dan Keluarga

Berdasarkan isi dan fungsinya, surat dapat dibedakan menjadi beberapa macam, salah satunya surat pribadi. Surat pribadi adalah surat yang ditulis atas nama pribadi.

Mengutip buku Mahir Menulis Surat Resmi dan Surat Pribadi untuk SMP/MTS oleh Nadya Safira, dkk., surat pribadi lebih banyak ditujukan kepada sahabat atau kerabat terdekat. Isi suratnya menyangkut urusan pribadi dan pembahasan yang lebih personal.

Misalnya, menanyakan kabar orangtua, menceritakan kegiatan sehari-hari kepada sahabat yang tinggal berjauhan, atau mengungkapkan perasaan rindu kepada kekasih yang terpisah oleh jarak.

Surat pribadi juga bisa bersifat resmi. Biasanya, jenis surat pribadi seperti ini berisi permohonan atau permintaan tertentu. Sebagai contoh, surat lamaran kerja, surat pernyataan, surat kuasa, surat permohonan cuti, surat pemberitahuan kepada guru, dan sebagainya.

Karena isinya bersifat privat, cara penulisan surat pribadi tidak terikat pada aturan tertentu. Bahasa yang digunakan pun fleksibel, boleh santai maupun resmi, tergantung siapa penerimanya dan apa tujuan surat itu ditulis.

Selain dari bahasanya, surat pribadi juga dapat dikenali dengan ciri-ciri berikut:

Tidak memakai nomor.

Surat pribadi keluarga tidak memakai lampiran dan perihal, sedangkan surat pribadi yang bersifat resmi menyertakan perihal dan lampiran.

Tidak memakai kepala atau kop surat.

Surat pribadi yang sifatnya lebih santai tidak ada tembusan, sedangkan surat pribadi resmi bisa memakai tembusan.

Surat pribadi dapat ditulis menggunakan bahasa Indonesia maupun Inggris, yang penting isinya tersampaikan dengan baik dan dapat dipahami oleh penerima surat.

Dear Jane,

It’s a great pleasure to recieve a letter from you. I’m sorry I haven’t written for a long time, I was busy with preparation for exams.

You know, I can’t say that I have some definite duties but I try to help my parents as much as possible. As for me, I hate doing the dishes but unfortunately do it from time to time. However, I like to do my room, it makes me feel cheerful. I’m sure that we should help parents. They support us whatever we start doing and helping is the least we can do for them.

9. Surat Pribadi dalam Bahasa Inggris untuk Bertukar Kabar

Hello Patrick,

I want to tell you about my best friend.

I have several friends at school. But the best among them is Anton, who is my class fellow.

He is of my age. But he is much taller than I in size. Anton has a very cheerful nature. I've known him for two years but have never seen him angry. His face is always smiling. Even if any boy abuses him, Anton never loses his temper.

At school he sits on the same bench with me. We are together for the greater part of the day. Together we learn and play together. Other boys envy our friendship. But we do not mind it.

Anton is very good at his lessons. He never neglects his studies. He never gives the teacher a chance to complaint. Mathematics is his weak subject. But Anton is doing his best to make up his weakness.

My friend is active and smart. He is good at both studies and games. Anton never tells a lie. He helps his parents in the house He loves hard work and honest labor.

All his qualities have attracted me. I cannot find a more ideal friend than Anton.

Best wishes,

Alex

Dear John,

It’s a great pleasure to receive a letter from you. Sorry I haven’t written for a long time, but I was busy with preparation for exams.

As for me, I must clean my room regulary and also help parents when they’re tired. If I need to cook something, I’d like to make scrambled eggs or some salad. You know, I do. I’m absolutely sure that every boy should be able to take care of himself, therefore he must be able to do housework.

That’s great! What place have you chosen? Is your teacher going to accompany you? Do you have all necessary things for a hike?

Well, I’d better go. I promised my sister to help with her homework.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Love,

Natasha

13. Surat Pribadi dalam Bahasa Inggris untuk Teman Laki-laki

Dear Benjamin,

Thanks for your letter. You know I live in a big family, so I have to share a room with a brother or stay with a sister in the evening when our parents have a chance to go to the theatre or any other place. I should say it's very cool to have somebody you can take care of or share your interests. My brother Tom and me have the same hobby of collecting small chocolates. When we have more than thirty we make a kind of party and eat them all. We sometimes give one or two to my sister. She always looks forward to such occasions.

Now tell me about that sports club. How can you train there?   What workings hours does it have? Can you have a personal tutor there?

Hope to hear from you soon!

Best wishes,

Victor

15. Surat Pribadi dalam Bahasa Inggris tentang Liburan

Dear Silvia,

Hope you find this letter in good health. First of all, I’d like to know how are you? I am great here, doing great in academics as well as in life.

I am writing this letter because I want to tell you something that recently happened. I spent a wonderful time in these holidays which I had gone after a long time. You already are aware, that I have a tight and strenuous schedule managing everything at the college. It becomes, even more, tiring with part-time jobs. But I decided to take a break from everything.

So we all went to Bali and the journey was covered with an airplane  I would like to tell you, it was very beautiful and worth taking a shot. We all were with a bunch of other friends who are with me in the college. The beaches looked gorgeous and relieved all the stress from work. 

We had some rides too, and they were interesting and adventurous. The overall cost, which we had to pay, was under a million rupiahs, so yes it was planned and well-executed trip. Somehow, if you want to go and visit Bali for a vacation it is pretty affordable and good.

We got accommodation easily, and the food over there was really good. I hope you’d come over here soon so that we can go out and spend some really good time together.

Waiting for your response,

Till then, take care,

Your bestfriend, Amel
