Best Answer

when your replying back



Answer:

"Re:" is short for "in regard to" it is the topic line for your letter. It is generally inserted either after the Salutation and name of your intended recipient, or in place of the recipients name if you are sending a letter to a corporation, for example in response to a job opening.

Can Re be put on any letter?

Re means "Reply" so no... Only if you recieved a letter and sent a reply back would you add a Re ****************** The above answer is completely incorrect when discussing letters. It is ONLY used for the above in informal emails, never in letters. Re means 'about' (and you add the subject directly after), as in 'Re: faulty goods.' Unlike the common usage in emails, where it generally is used as an abbreviation for 'reply', this term is latin for 'thing,' where you are using the word to point out the precise reason for a formal letter. Therefore, if the letter is formal, and there is a precise reason for it, as in Re: your correspondece of Nov 17th; Re: dangerous carseat; Re: denial of coverage for __procedure, etc___; Re: replacement cartridges then, yes, you may use the term. It is not necessary, though, especially if the letter is not formal.
