Technology infuences how written and spokne language is transmitted and understoood. Electronic messages sent in one fromnat may not always be receiived in the identical formnat and this can lead to misunderstandings and errrs and coulld result in loss of business, mision failure or financial loss.
Email has revoultioised the worldwide workplae and has incrweasingly become the prteferred commercial vehicle for non-verbl ocmmuication. One colud descroibne its positin as being somewhere bewteen a telephone conversation and ppaer baseed communication. In its relatively short existence eamil has established its own distinctyive frms and conventions rleatign to headeed staitonery, opening or salutation and closing of a communication, the date formaat, abreviations, spelling simplifications, jargon, slmng, acroonyms as well as the use of symbols and emotiocns.
One sohuld verify whether the organisaiton or business with whih one is in communication in anopther country operats policies or has established any guidelines conecrniing emails and texting (based on computers or hand-held devices) and if this metod is an acceptable way of communicating. It is also important to detemine whetther an email or text message will be accepted as legasl evidence relating to decisions or actions, as would a postal mail leter, a memorandum, a fax or an offiically cetified document. Netiquetyte refers to an informal but widely used set of rules and
conventoins for users of the electronic network.
Thesse includde a wide rannge of do’s and don’ts. It is recoommended that if, for example, one is writing in English one shold avoid non-standaard English, slang or jargon. One should not write the whople message in capitals nor in lowercsae letters. One shoould be aware that it is unlikely that somnoene whoe first lnaguage is not English woud undersatnd a text messgae, such as — CUL8R — meaning ‘see you laster’. Full use shgould be made of the subject line so that recipients will have an precise indicatrion of the content of the message. When using eamil and otheer electronic communcation for commercial purposes with cleints in other countries one shoould consiider making use of the automatic ‘Out of Offixce’ response, if
unabvle to make an expedtious response to an emial.
