Dear Shalini,

Hope you’re doing splendidly! I’m writing to share the inconvenience caused by your dog on the regular basis. Well, it always come to my home during afternoon, and stroll in my every room. Yesterday, it did a poop in my kitchen, which literally made my day worst.

Although your pet dog is quite adoring, I’m not a pet lover, and I’ve allergy from dogs. As your dog is always come to home, it causes me allergic reactions. This hypersenstivity condition is extemely severe, and it is a daunting task for me to overcome from this condition. On top of that it also damages my kitchen equipments. Yesterday, your dog have destroyed by microwave, which is quite expensive.

To rectify this predicament, I’d like to suggest you to keep your dog indoor, so that it don’t create a formidable situation for others. I hope you will comprehend my problem and will take suitable action to resolve this conundrum.

Waiting for your prompt action!

Yours lovingly,

Komal

Task Response

The letter appropriately addresses all requirements of the task, clearly describing the disturbances, their effects, and suggesting a solution. The tone is generally polite and the language is sufficiently formal. To improve, consider providing more specific details about the disturbances and their impact, and ensure consistent tone throughout the letter.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter is generally coherent, but the organization could be improved. Consider dedicating a separate paragraph to each of the points mentioned in the task (describing disturbances, explaining the effect on you, and suggesting a solution). The transitions between ideas could also be smoother. For example, the shift from describing the dog's actions to your allergy feels a bit abrupt. Using more cohesive devices like 'Furthermore' or 'In addition to this' could help.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise and natural. While words like 'splendidly,' 'adoring,' 'daunting,' 'formidable,' and 'conundrum' are ambitious, they sometimes feel forced or slightly out of place in this context. For example, 'rectify this predicament' is a bit formal for a letter to a neighbor. Aim for more natural and common vocabulary relevant to the situation. Instead of 'stroll in my every room,' you could say 'wander around my house.' Instead of 'made my day worst,' you could say 'ruined my day.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The letter contains several grammatical errors that affect clarity. Some examples include: 'it always come to my home' (should be 'comes'), 'I've allergy from dogs' (should be 'I have an allergy to dogs'), 'your dog is always come to home' (should be 'coming'), 'Yesterday, your dog have destroyed by microwave' (should be 'destroyed my microwave'). Pay close attention to subject-verb agreement, preposition usage, and verb tenses. Proofreading carefully before submitting would help catch these errors.
