You can use formal as well as informal sentences in order to expresshope. The normal expression is by simply using the verb ‘hope’ in thetense required by the sentence:
“I hope to see you soon.” “I hope (that) the train
arrives/will arrive
on time.”
Note that you may omit ‘that’ – the link between the two sentences.
To express various degrees of hope, you may engage the use of what we call adverbs of degrees and this will signal the
‘strength
’ of your emotions to the listener. In our sentences above it goes like:
Adverbs of degree and what we call ‘gradable words’are a complex grammatical matter, so I propose we consider them in aseparate session next time, before we continue with other emotions onecan express.
I hoped that … [this is more tentative] I was hoping that … [this as well, is more tentative] Hopefully, next time he’ll come bearing gifts.
Now, if we use verbs like ‘hope’ and ‘want’, etc. in
the progressive (continuous/-ing) form
, we’re expressing greater tentativeness and tact.
As an example, instead of saying:
“Did you want to see me?” you may say “Were you wanting to see me?”
“We hope they will come to the wedding.” you may say “We are hoping they will come to the wedding.”
By engaging these expressions, you are actually showing less directness. The result is to slightly sweeten a hidden request.
Having said that, let me leave you with a smile on your face and a more direct way of expressing hope:
Get off the highway now, should you hope to live in Hope. Let's not lose hope that Hope actually exists... :-D
"I hope your spirits are as high as your churn rates are low." "I hope everything's groovy at [company name]." "How are you holding up in the [summer heat, winter cold, this weather]?" "I request the highest of fives."
Some synonyms and near synonyms for I hope you're doing well include: I hope all is well. I hope this email finds you well. I hope you are having a good week.
You can use variations such as “I'm doing well, thank you,” “I hope you're having a great day too,” or “Wishing you a wonderful day.” The key is to express gratitude and reciprocate the well wishes in a sincere manner.
Break 'i hope this clarifies' down into sounds: [EYE HOHP DHIS KLARR] + [UH] + [FYZ] - say it out loud and exaggerate the sounds until you can consistently produce them.
However, typical things to say are: Hope everything goes okay for you. Hope everything turns out okay for you. Hope you'll be okay. Hope you'll feel better soon.
This phrase is slightly more formal and can be used with colleagues, clients, and other professional contacts via email or message. It's great for situations where you want to convey your hopes for someone's well-being or after hearing they've been through a challenging time.
Be sure to respond!: It's polite to return the good wishes to the sender. You could reply with, "I hope you are also well," or "I trust you are doing well too." Be genuine: If you're not doing well, then say so.
A general template for responding to an email professionally includes a salutation, an introductory paragraph that reacts to the initial email and acknowledges its main purpose, paragraphs addressing the issues raised, and a closing paragraph summarizing points and inviting further communication.
