SUPPORTING FEATURES
 E-mails and letters
An e-mail is occasionally shorter than a letter and more practical. For example, im a letter there should be the addres of the letter's sender(on the top right), but in an e-email, we only need to mention the recipient's e-mail addres. Besides, we do not need to mention the date in an e-mail, because it is automstically programmed. Additionally, latter takes a few days to reach the recipient, while an e-mail is immediately received by the recipent.
There are similarities between e-mails and letters. In composing either, we use:
•Salutation, such as:dear fitria, dear madam, dear sir, dear uncle guntur.
•The boddy of an e-mail/letter.
•Signature/closing, such as:kond regards,.best regards, love, lots of love, yours sincerely, yours faithfully.

GRAMMAR
Possessive pronouns
Pay attention to the words in bold in the sentence"i know, yours are much better than outs". The words in bold are possessive pronouns. A possessive pronoun shows ownership. Unlike possessive adjectives(my, your, his, her, its, our, their)which are followed by nouns, possessive pronouns stand on their own, without any nouns.
