简短的英语道歉信经典20篇

Dear Prof. Patent,

I am very sorry to inform you that I did not manage to complete the book report you assigned last week, due to a sudden illness falling upon me a few days ago. For the past few days I have been in hospital with a continuous fever, which has thus prevented me from any academic activity. I hereby submit the doctor’s note.

I would be very much obliged if you could grant me another week for the task, as my health is turning better.

Hope you can understand my situation and accept my apology.

Yours faithfully,

Li Ming

As you are reading this letter, I bet that you have seen/heard about what happened earlier in our country.

Tourists were hostages of a policeman here, Rolando Mendoza. After a few hours of the horrible crime, some of the victims were dead including the hostage-taker.

I wrote this letter not just to apologize but also to let everyone know that we Filipinos are not all like Mendoza. We are loving and good-hearted people.

For so many years, our country has been standing tall and surpassing every dilemma; be it small or big. Years ago (back when I wasn’t born yet), you have watched us fight for what we think is right. We fought for the democracy of our nation.. The EDSA revolution. But that’s just one out of many.

Second. We Filipinos have been serving other countries for our families and we treat you as our own as well. With all due respect, I thank you all for giving us the trust through the years. For helping us to become what we are now.

The Philippines is more than just a group of islands. We are a nation of strong and remarkable people. A country of beauty and love known to be hospitable and well-valued. I humbly apologize for what happened tonight. No one in this world would want something like that to happen for life should be valued.

I politely ask the attention of the world. Please do not judge and mistreat us just because of what happened tonight. I have been searching the net and found terrible things. Hong Kong advices to avoid travels here, China and HK bans Filipinos and that Philippines is the worst place to go.

I can’t blame you for what you have decided but I hope that you could understand. Our country is now in a sea of problems. And I know for sure that we helped you in a way or another. Let peace and understanding reign this time.

I know that this letter will just be trash but I wish that you would understand. On behalf of the Philippine population.. WE ARE SORRY.

As a song puts it…

And I believe that in my life I will see an end to hopelessness, giving-up and suffering. And we all stand together this one time then no one will get left behind. Stand up for life. STAND UP FOR LOVE

Sincerely yours,

Reigno Jose Dilao

Dear Anne,

Thank you for your invitation to dinner at your home tomorrow evening. Unfortunately, it is much to my regret that I cannot join you and your family, because I will be fully occupied then for an important exam coming the day after tomorrow. I feel terribly sorry for missing the chance of such a happy get-together, and I hope that all of you enjoy a good time. Is it possible for you and me to have a private meeting afterward? If so, please dont hesitate to drop me a line about your preferable date. I do long for a pleasant chat with you.

Please allow me to say sorry again.

Regards,

Li Ming

Dear John ：

John Please allow me to apologize for what I said on last Friday’s meeting. My behavior was extremely inappropriate, immature, and lacked the respect you and your team deserved. It was embarrassing, but I learned that nobody appreciated my poor behavior. In the future, I have every intention of curbing my thoughtless actions and learn to adjust my behavior befitting the environment and situation.

Again, I am sorry for my actions and I hope that we can put this matter behind us. I look forward to working with you soon. If you have any thoughts in this, please feel free to share. You may contact me at your convenience at email or phone.

Sincerely,

dear kate:

excuse me for my long delaying in returning to you your “robinson crusoe” which i read through with great interest. i had finished reading the book and was about to return it when my cousin came to see me. never having seen the book, she was so interested in it that i had to retain it longer. however, i hope that in view of the additional delight thus afforded by your book, you will overlook my negligence in not returning it sooner.

thanking you again for the loan.

sincerely yours,

tom

Dear David: I am afraid that you will think me unpardonably negligent in not having answered your letter dated 7, December sooner, but when I have told you the reason, I trust you will be convinced that the neglect was excusable. When your letter arrived, I was just in Hong Kong. As my family could not forward it to me during my absence, it has been, therefore, lying on my desk until the moment when I took it up. Now the first thing I have to hasten to do is to write to you these few lines to express my deep regret.

I enjoyed many pleasant sights during my trip. I shall be pleased to give you an account to of them when I see you next.

I apologize for the behavior of our second-grade classes at the dress rehearsal of your excellent show. They were certainly disruptive, and I was only amazed at how well your actors managed to keep going, in spite of the noise.

Their teachers have spoken to them, and the children have prepared cards and pictures for the cast, to express their own apologies. Will you please pass these on to Mrs. Doe and the cast?

In the meantime, I think we have learned from this experience that our second-grade students are too young to sit through a full-length show.

We will exclude them in the future, if you open dress rehearsals to us again. Our older students and staff certainly appreciate your kindness in this area very much.

Yours sincerely,

Dear my husband,

While youre reading this letter, maybe Im doing my math or English homework--- if not, chemistry.

Im very sorry for what I had done if I really hurt your feelings. I sincerely beg for your forgiveness.

I remember when I met you for the first time, I lost my heart to you. I knew that you are the right person that I would get married to. And I could tell that you knew it too when you looked at me--- It was like the wind in the spring flowing across my face. It felt so good.

I remember when we got married, I drew our marriage certificate. Although the certificate was simple and, maybe a little ugly, it contains all my love for you and it weighs one thousand pounds. Ill remember it all my life.

I remember when I put my arms around your waist for the first time, it was all as if we were the only human-beings in the world, no one else--- just NO ONE ELSE.

I remember that we shared our sweets, we sat together to discuss how to solve a math problem, we talked and laughed. We loved each other so much.

I remember. There are so many things for us to remember and value, my dear. You are the best ong that Ive decided to devote all my love and life to. The doves flying in the sky, the fish playing in the water, the leaves singing on the top of yhe oak can all help prove my strong love for you! Winter having gone so far, I still miss the snow which was like our beautiful love. Oh. I can never forget the days we have spent together. And there is also the most wonderful future for us to look forward to.

SO, PLEASE, my dear. I dont know why you have suggested that we get divorced, but I know that I must have done something really wrong and that I must apologize. Im so sorry. Please forgive me, and GIVE ME ANOTHER CHANCE!!!

Yours,

Olivia

Dear Ms Winston,

亲爱的温斯顿女士：

The purpose of this is to convey to you my sincere apologies for any inconvenience you may have experience last month with respect to the installation of your Internet high speed service.

我的目的是向您表示诚挚的歉意，对于您在上个月安装互联网高速服务时可能遇到的任何不便。

I just returned from vacation this week and found your file in my in-basket. As soon as I reviewed your case it was clear that somehow your Jau. 20th request for a change in service had somehow slipped through the cracks. The only possible explanation I can give is that we have recently had a number of key staff changes, which might have resulted in your letter being overlooked.

我刚从这个假期回来，发现你的文件在我的篮子里。我一看你的案子，就知道你的JAU了。第二十要求改变服务的方式不知怎么地从裂缝中溜走了。我能给出的唯一可能的解释是，我们最近发生了一些关键的员工变动，这可能导致您的信被忽略。

Consequently, I have directed our installation group to contact you by the end of this week to set up a time convenient to you when they could go to your house and install your new router and make the necessary adjustments to your software.

因此，我已指示我们的安装小组在本周末之前与您联系，以便为您安排一个方便的时间，以便他们能够去您家安装您的新路由器，并对您的软件进行必要的调整。

Because of this serious oversight, and as a testament to our appreciation of you as out customer , we are going to provide you with your first three months of high speed service for free charge. There fore, your account will not be billed until June of this year.

由于这次的严重疏忽，作为我们对您作为我们的客户的感谢的证明，我们将免费为您提供头三个月的高速服务。因此，您的帐户将不会计费到今年六月。

Ms. Winston, let me assure you that what happened in your case is not typical of CableNets level of customer service. We continue to be committed to providing you and all of our customers with the highest standards of service in the industry.

温斯顿女士，让我向你保证，在你的情况下发生的事情不典型的CableNet的客户服务水平。我们将继续致力于为您和我们所有的客户提供最高的服务标准。

If you have any questions please dont hesitate to call me.

如果你有任何问题，请不要犹豫，123456点钟打电话给我。

Yours in service

您的服务

Dear Tom,

I feel terribly sorry to tell you that our trip to Beijing next weekend will be rearranged due to my personal reason. I was informed just now that I entered the final of the CCTV English Speech Competition. And the final is to be held next week. The winner of this competition will get an opportunity to study in Harvard University. Sounds fantastic, doesn’t it?

For years, I have been dreaming about studying abroad as an exchange student to learn/experience different cultures. Now the chanceis coming. I think that if you were me, you would grasp it as I do.

Is it possible for us to make another time to visit Beijing? I sincerely hope you can accept my apologies and understand me. Once again, I’m sorry for any inconvenience caused.

incerely yours,

Li Hua

Dear Mary,

I am very much looking forward to your visit to my city. Just think: after all these years of writing to each other, we will finally have the chance to meet! However, I regret to inform you that I will not be able to meet you at the airport as soon as you arrive.

The reason is that your flight will arrive early in the morning, and the quickest I can get to the airport will be about an hour after you land. Please wait for me in the arrival lounge. You should be able to have breakfast there while you wait.

By the way, as we have never met I must tell you how to recognize me: I am medium height and have a small mustache. In addition, I will be carrying a copy of the morning newspaper tucked under my left arm.

Looking forward to out first meeting.

Yours sincerely,
