怎样用英语写订单？

　　1. 文体介绍
　　订货(order)是买方为要求供应具体数量的货物而提出的一种要求。此时，交易双方之间的陌生感已消除，可以说已经度过了接触障碍和难关。写定货信时应注意以下几点：(1)开头就直接说明订购的意图。 (2)订货信一般应包括：商品的名称、品质、数量、包装、价格条件、支付条件以及需要对方提供的单据等。(3)内容必须准确、清楚。不论是商品的价格还是商品的规格都应做到准确无误，否则会带来不必要的损失与麻烦。

　　卖方收到订货电子邮件后必须进行确认。如果卖方无法提供买方所需要的货物，则最好介绍一些合适的替代品;如果买方所需货物的价格和规格发生了变化，卖方则提出还价并劝买方接受，但要注意：写拒绝接受订货的信时，必须非常谨慎，应为日后有可能的交易留下余地。

　　1. 文体介绍 在对外贸易中， 询盘 ，也叫询价(inquiry或enquiry)是买方或买方对于所要购买或出售的商品向另一方作出的询问。 询盘 是交易的起点，可以分为：

　　普通询盘 (a general inquiry):索取普通资料， 诸如：目录(a catalogue)、价目表或报价单(a price-list or quotation sheets)、样品(a sample)、图片(illustrated photo prints)等。

　　具体询盘(a specific inquiry): 具体询问商品名称(the name of the commodity)、规格(the specifications)、数量(the quantity)、单价(the unit price FOB … CIF …),装船期(the time of shipment)、付款方式(the terms of payment)等。

　　询盘一般多为买方向卖方发出，买方通过询盘信，简明扼要的向卖方了解一般的商品信息。利用E-mail 写询盘信，无须写的过分客气，只需具体、简洁、措词得体。有的询盘信开门见山，直截了当说明订购打算，希望对方给予一定优惠条件;有的询盘信则以征询信息的方式，不许下订货诺言，以避免结果未订购可能形成的日后交易中的障碍 。
