In the DELE B2, C1 and C2 Written Test you must write a Letter of Request, a Letter of Request or a Letter of Application, which are very similar to each other, and what they will ask you is to ask or request information from another person, an organization or an organization.

My first tip for this task is not to limit yourself to asking direct questions, that is, those that have question marks at the beginning and end.

These types of questions are very natural for holding a conversation, but for these DELE exams I recommend that you ask more indirect questions, that is, that you ask for information without abusing question marks.

So, to ask these questions, you can start by using a conditional, such as “If was/were possible... “, “If possible...” or another type of structure such as “If it's not is/outside/it would be inconvenient...”.

However, you must complete these structures by including an infinitive, for example, “If possible I would like to know/know/ask you... “, or a subjunctive present, that is, “If it's not inconvenient, I would appreciate it if you send me...”.

You can also use the imperfect subjunctive to give more formality to the text, for example, “If possible, I would appreciate it if you send/send... more information”.

“I would appreciate it”, by the way, is a very good verb to use in these letters, since it's a formal and polite way of expressing yourself.

For DELE C1 and even more so for C2, with these request verbs you can use the subjunctive directly without using the “what”. For example, “I would appreciate it if you take an interest (in such a matter)...”, which is useful when we want to influence someone by asking for something.

I'll tell you everything you need to consider to improve your letter of application, request or request in Spanish to pass this step of the Written Test in the DELE exam B2, C1 and C2.

Within these formal letters, there is also a tendency to use many nouns, but I recommend that you sometimes include a noun that corresponds to a verb. For example, instead of “I appreciate your interest...”, you can say “I appreciate your interest...”.

Finally, two other very useful and practical structures for these letters are: “I was wondering if...”, “I am/would be interested in...”.

I hope to have helped you with these guidelines and structures to enrich your tools for writing the letter of the Written Test. If you want to know more information, you can sign up for my specific courses for the DELE exam: https://aporeldele.com/cursos
