Explanation

The letter is a means of communication through which one person or institution communicates with another. Letters are a means of sending or receiving a message. For a long time, letters written on paper were used and over time, they were transformed to become a digital medium. Like any other writing, letters must have a specific objective, for example, to inform, explain, describe, among others.
