question

Let us verify the adjective's reading in the manuscript before calling it a transferred epithet, especially when one uncertain letter changes a description of a person's state into an ordinary property of the object.

In this letter, a declaration of selflessness precedes a request for a favour, which invites a more cautious reading of the writer's assurances.

A courteous closing does not cancel a sharp remark in the middle of a letter, just as that remark does not make every courtesy hypocritical; let us preserve both tones instead of smoothing the correspondence into a single mood.

If the editor shortens the letter, please retain the sentence explaining what my objection concerns.

The letter should complement the CV rather than repeat it sentence by sentence.

I will not sign an assessment whose certainty comes solely from the letter's expected tone rather than my knowledge of the person's work.
