Be well

Some people find this grating. Not appropriate for a business email.
有些人認(rèn)為不太好聽，在商業(yè)郵件中不合適。

Peace

Retro, this sign-off wears its politics on its sleeve. It doesn't bother me but others might recoil.
很復(fù)古，這個(gè)結(jié)尾具有政治色彩。有人可能不太適應(yīng)，但我OK。

Yours Truly

I don't like this. It makes me feel like I'm ten years old and getting a note from a pen pal in Sweden.
我不喜歡這個(gè)。它讓我有種我十歲從瑞典筆友那里收到一封信的感覺。

Yours

Same problem as above.
和上面那個(gè)問題一樣。

Very Truly Yours

Lett likes this for business emails but I find it stilted and it has the pen pal problem.
萊特喜歡在商業(yè)郵件中用這個(gè)，但我認(rèn)為不自然，還是像筆友信件。

Sincerely

Lett also likes this but to me, it signals that the writer is stuck in the past. Maybe OK for some formal business correspondence, like from the lawyer handling your dead mother's estate.
萊特也喜歡這個(gè)，但是對(duì)于我來說，這表明作者停留在過去。也許對(duì)于某些正式的商業(yè)通信是OK的，例如來自處理你去世母親遺產(chǎn)的律師信函。

Sincerely Yours

Same problem as "Sincerely," but hokier.
跟“Sincerely”問題一樣，但是有些做作。

Cheers!

I wonder how prevalent this is in the UK. I've only seen it from Americans who are trying for a British affectation. I know it shouldn't grate on me but it does. I also don't like people telling me to cheer up.
我好奇這個(gè)在英國(guó)怎么這么流行。我只在試圖模仿英國(guó)人的美國(guó)人的郵件中看到過這個(gè)。我知道這個(gè)不該激怒我，但是它確實(shí)會(huì)。我也不喜歡別人告訴我cheer up。

Ciao （意大利語(yǔ)的“你好；再見”）

Pretentious for an English-speaker, though I can see using it in a personal, playful email.
母語(yǔ)是英語(yǔ)的人用這個(gè)詞顯得很裝，雖然在一些玩笑化的個(gè)人郵件中使用它我能理解。

Your name

Terse but just fine in many circumstances. Probably not a good idea for an initial email.
雖然簡(jiǎn)潔，但是在很多情況下都適用?？赡苡迷谧铋_始的郵件中用不是很好。

Initial

Good if you know the recipient and even fine in a business context if it's someone with whom you correspond frequently.
如果你認(rèn)識(shí)收件人，這樣用很好；如果你經(jīng)常和他通信，那么這個(gè)在商業(yè)郵件中也很適用。

Love

This seems too informal, like over-sharing in the business context.
這個(gè)看起來太不正式，在商業(yè)郵件中就像過度分享。

XOXO

I've heard of this being used in business emails but I don't think it's a good idea.
我聽說過在商業(yè)郵件中使用這個(gè)，但是我認(rèn)為這不是個(gè)好主意。

Lots of love

I would only use this in a personal email. The "lots of" makes it even more inappropriately effusive than the simple, clean “Love.”
我只會(huì)在私人郵件中使用這個(gè)?！癓ots of”比簡(jiǎn)潔的“Love”更顯得過度熱情。

Hugs

It's hard to imagine this in a business email but it's great when you're writing to your granny.
很難想象在商務(wù)郵件中用這個(gè)，但是如果你是在跟你的奶奶寫信，這個(gè)就非常好。

Smiley face

Emoticons are increasingly accepted, though some people find them grating. I wouldn't sign off this way unless I were writing to my kid.
盡管有些人為之惱火，但是表情符號(hào)越來越被廣為接受。但除非我跟我的孩子寫信，否則我不會(huì)用這個(gè)結(jié)尾。

;-)

I've gotten emails from colleagues with these symbols and I find they brighten my day.
我收到過同事發(fā)的郵件中使用這個(gè)符號(hào)，我覺得它們很陽(yáng)光。

[:-)

I'm a sucker for variations on the smiley face made with punctuation marks, though I suspect most people don't like them.
盡管我懷疑大多數(shù)人都不喜歡，但是我看到用標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號(hào)構(gòu)成的笑臉還挺高興的。

High five from down low

A colleague shared this awful sign-off which is regularly used by a publicist who handles tech clients. An attempt to sound cool, which fails.
一個(gè)同事分享了這個(gè)糟糕的結(jié)尾，這個(gè)結(jié)尾被處理技術(shù)客戶的公關(guān)頻繁使用。這個(gè)嘗試聽起來很酷，但是未能湊效。

Take it easy bro

Though it might turn some people off, I would be fine receiving an email with this sign-off, knowing the sender lives in an informal milieu.
盡管它可能使一些人反感，但是我收到用它結(jié)尾的郵件時(shí)感覺挺好，因?yàn)槲抑肋@個(gè)發(fā)件人在非正式的環(huán)境下生活。

See you around

Lett would cringe but this seems fine to me.
萊特可能不喜歡，但是對(duì)我來說似乎挺好。

Have a wonderful bountiful lustful day

It's weird and off-putting.
這種表達(dá)很奇怪而且會(huì)令人不快。

Sent from my iPhone

This may be the most ubiquitous sign-off. It used to bother me but I realize that it explains brevity and typos.
這可能是你常?？吹降慕Y(jié)尾。以前這個(gè)簽名總是困擾我，但后來我明白了它只是為了解釋信件簡(jiǎn)潔和出現(xiàn)錯(cuò)別字的原因。

Typos courtesy of my iPhone

Slightly clever but it's gotten old. Better to use the automated message.
稍顯聰明，但很老舊了。用自動(dòng)消息會(huì)更好。

Sent from a prehistoric stone tablet

I laughed the first time I read it but then the joke wore thin.
當(dāng)我第一次讀到時(shí)，我笑了，但是過后這個(gè)笑話就不好笑了。

Pardon my monkey thumbs

Same problem here.
跟上面的問題一樣。

Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail.

A preachy relic of the past. Who doesn't know that printing uses paper?
證明發(fā)件人過去愛說教。誰(shuí)不知道用紙打印對(duì)環(huán)境的影響？

vCards

I think these are a great idea. At least they work well on my Dell desktop when I want to load a contact into Outlook.
我認(rèn)為這個(gè)是個(gè)好主意。當(dāng)我想要加載一個(gè)聯(lián)系方式到Outlook上時(shí)，至少這個(gè)在我的戴爾桌面上很好用。

This email is off the record unless otherwise indicated.

I'm wondering what kind of paranoid people put this in their signatures.
我很好奇多么偏執(zhí)的人才會(huì)在他的簽名中用這個(gè)。

Lengthy disclaimers

We've all seen these and ignored them, though I understand that many companies require them. Forbes' in-house legal counsel, Kai Falkenberg, says she knows of no cases that have relied on legal disclaimers, though she says they might serve as persuasive evidence in a trade secrets case where a party was attempting to keep information confidential.
我們都看到過這些，但是忽略了他們，盡管我知道很多公司需要它們。福布斯的咨詢律師卡伊·法爾肯貝里說她還沒聽說過法律免責(zé)聲明派上用場(chǎng)的時(shí)候，盡管它們可能在一方試圖保持信息機(jī)密的商業(yè)機(jī)密案中被當(dāng)作是具有說服力的證據(jù)。

附英文郵件結(jié)尾四規(guī)則

1.Don't include quotes.
不要包含引言。

2. Avoid oversized corporate logos. Sometimes we have no choice about this, because our companies insist we include these things, but if they are too big, they draw the eye away from the message.
避免過大的公司標(biāo)識(shí)。有時(shí)候我們別無選擇，因?yàn)楣緢?jiān)持讓我們使用這些東西，但是如果標(biāo)識(shí)太大了，它會(huì)分散注意力。

3. Include your title and contact info, but keep it short. In most business emails, you're doing the person a favor by sharing your vital information. But make it minimal. E.g., "Susan Adams, Senior Editor, Forbes 212-206-5571."
包含你的職位和聯(lián)系信息，但是保持簡(jiǎn)潔。如：“Susan Adams，福布斯雜志高級(jí)編輯，212-206-5571?！?/p>

4. Do include some kind of sign-off.
務(wù)必包含結(jié)尾。
