How do you sign the AP Spanish email response?

<p>Should one sign their name or a random name? Also, what are some good salutations and endings?</p>

<p>Either/or is fine. Salutations: Querido <em>__, Hola, Estimado </em>. Endings: Sinceramente, tu amigo, besos.</p>

<p>respetuosamente is the best imo</p>

<ol>
<li>Either your name or a random name (be sure gender agreement is there).</li>
<li>Salutations: I would caution against using “querido/querida” because it denotes familiarity and the email is formal. I recommend “Muy Estimada Sr/Sra ____:”, and always remember to use the colon instead of the comma after the salutation because that’s just how they do it in Spanish speaking countries.</li>
<li>Ending: Okay, I’m guessing the other poster doesn’t know it’s formal. Anything like “cordialmente,” or something in that vein is good.</li>
</ol>

<p>Obviously take your cue from the prompt, but at least for the last two years, formal address would have been inappropriate.</p>
