Explain the following term/concept:

Conciseness

Short/Brief Note
Advertisements

Solution

(1) The term ‘concise’ means brief and to the point. A good business letter must be brief and to the point. It is very essential that the letter should not be lengthy. Businessmen have too many letters to read. They want to know the contents of the letter at a glance.

(2) The letter should not contain unnecessary details, long descriptions, irrelevant details, lengthy sentences, redundant words, etc. Repetition should be avoided and the words having double meanings should not be used. The letter was written should provide maximum information in minimum words. However, conciseness should not reduce clarity.
