The correct answer is "in regard to". Even better, "this is regarding ..."

Don't forget that "regards" usually means an expression of sentiment something like "best wishes", as in, "Please pass along my regards to your father." or, as in the old musical number, "Give my regards to old Broadway!"

According to the Dr. Grammar site:

In regard(s) to?
"The use of the plural regards in the phrases in regards to and with regards to is incorrect. Since each phrase shows its speaker regarding just one issue, the regard is singular: in regard to and with regard to.
[Examples:] I am calling in regard to your memo.
With regard to our meeting, I cannot attend." (Strumpf and Douglas, The Grammar Bible 220).

The antonym for regard is a) if you regarded someone that means you acknowledged them, so it is disregard, to ignore. b) if you say 'with regards to' it means you have given a reference to it, for example, 'with regards to your statement given on the 25th May', so the antonym is neglect, to leave it alone and don't do anything for it.

Is it correct to say 'in regards to'?

It never sounds quite right to me. I think "in regard to" sounds much better. It is very much like "in consideration of". It sounds bad to say "in considerations of". Maybe the simpler "regarding" would work as well as "in regard to".


Can you use Regards in Letter Writing If so in what cases?

The term 'regards' is frequently used in letter-writing. 'Regards' usually forms part of the signature to a letter and is generally preceeded by an adjective, as in 'warm regards', 'fond regards', 'best regards', and so on. You are telling the person you're writing to that you hold them in good esteem, that you like and respect them. You might also use the term 'regards', 'regard' or 'regarding' in the body of your letter. You might say, 'I'm writing regarding your comments ...', or 'In regard to your question ...' In this instance you're simply telling someone what you're writing about. You could as easily say, 'I'm writing 'about' your letter ...' and so on.

Darn, the more often I read this the more confused I get.I started this answer intending to say that the correct phrase would be with regard to rain and snow - ie 'with' not 'in' and 'regard' not 'regards' but now I'm hopelessly confused.Sorry to all who read this, probably a complete waste of time, but I'll leave it as I'd be interested to know what others say.
