“No one let us know” more elegant alternative to “No one let us know”
I am writing an email and I want to say that some information was not mentioned to us but I want it sound a bit more official and I can’t get my head around how to build such phrase/sentence correctly. We haven’t been made aware of
something… Which does not sound right. We
haven’t been made aware of something… Which I would disagree. What suggestions/alternatives would you give my students?
Is there anything new to do with statistics?
What are you saying about things that you haven’t been made aware of? Doesn’t’ sound overbearing, but it is easily understood. The present perfect tense in the negative(haven’t been made aware ) makes it long(and a little odd, if you see it that way).
On the subject
of this matter, we received no information about the matter.
We didn’t receive any information
on… We did not receive any information
on… We weren’t in our sense… we
were innocently unaware of the fact…
What alternatives are there while the issue
is still pending today?
This one implies that the fault was on their side for failing to tell you.
Since there seemed no clear communiquu00e9 on the matter, it may be to clarify the facts rather than to talk about facts.
Less passive-aggressive, but also deflects blame from your self, as it does not mention your failure in receiving anything. (Substitute any article of correspondence you wish for “communiquu00e9”.)
