I am writing to apologise for the delivery time and for sending you the cracked figure. I think it had cracked by the time of delivery. I absolutely understand that when the figure arrived three weeks from ordering, was too late for You and I sincerely apologise for that. Our company must also apologise for the misunderstanding about the message You had chosen to be engraved on the gold plaque. By accident we sent You a wrong figure, but You can be sure that it will never happen again. I hope that this incident will not deter You from using our mail order company in the future. To make up the inconvenience caused, we are sending You a new china figure and giving you a full refund. Yours faithfully, John Jones John Jones Director of the China Figures Company

· We have probably all been in a situation when we know have behaved badly towards someone, but pride has made us slow to apologise. As the British pop singer Elton John put it on one of his songs, it is often the case that ,,sorry seems to be the hardest word." Of course when we do manage to make a sincere apology-it can quickly reduce the hurt or resestment felt by the person we have behaved badly towards. In the words of the Canadian cartoonist Lynn Johnston "An apology is the superglue of life-it can repair just about anything". However a recent survey suggests that in Britain the word ,,sorry" is being used in various situations where it doesn't have the traditional purpose of expressing regret for something a person has said or done. Arguably, the word is now being overused and might even be in danger of losing its meaning. Based on a sample of 1,100 people, the survey produced the statistic that the average

that, I could not hand it to my friend in time. Furthermore, there was a crack on one side of the figure; so as a consequence, it also did not look the same anymore because of it. And the gold plaque, where you engraved my message was completely wrong. That is why I could not gift it to my friend after all. As you can imagine already, I am quite disappointed about your company. I also feel that I have certain rights to receive a refund in addition to an apology from your company manager. I look forward to recieiving a quick reply. Yours faithfully, Rainar Kaegas
annoying. It surprised me because your advertisement said that you have private bathrooms. Furthermore, the food in the restaurant was horrible. It was cold and tasted awfully. I had to wait for two hours for the waitress to bring me my meal. It was really unpleasant and unlike the "5 star restaurant" you advertised. I am very disappointed indeed. I would like a full refund for the cost of my cruise as well as an apology for the appalling conditions. I hope to hear to hear from you regarding this matter as soon as possible. Yours faithfully, John Smith
stand and I noticed some trace of glue, this seemed quite careless. Furthermore, it was wrapped up very carelessly and there were many little pieces in the box. They were very dangerous for children. The beautiful China Figure turned out to be an awful cracked figure. As you can imagine, I am very disappointed. I didn't expect to be betrayed by your company and now I feel I am entitled to a refund in addition to an apology for the inconvenience caused. I look forward to receiving a prompt reply. Yours faithfully, Kätlin P.
it, a receptionist treated me very rudely. Secondly, the choice of food served at the hotel restaurant was very limited. There were hardly any traditional Spanish dishes, although your travel agent said that holidays at Oceanic Hotel is a perfect opportunity to try delicious Spanish cuisine. I am also extremely disappointed with the coach tour that you advertised in your leaflet. The tour was organized, however, no guide was provided. I expect a full refund of my holidays and an apology for your not fulfilling the promises given by your tourist office. I hope you will consider my complaints as soon as possible. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully xxx

,, I can't understand, if children doesn't have anything else but burn thing to do anymore!" said literature teatcher Kirsi Rannaste. Her statement was justified because few weeks later another incident took place. This time they were burning potato chips. In Viimsi Secondary School middle school students does not have any respect towards their theachers nor anybody else. When someone accidentaly runs into you, then you shouldn't wait for apology. More likely you get to hear some insulting words. When canadian Jody Mann, a Practical English teacher in Viimsi School, first started to work in Viimsi, he had a unpleasant incident with three 7th grade student. ,,I came out from class and started to walk along the hallway to teachers room when I saw three boys playing footbag. Just when was I passing them, footbag flew towards me. So I tried not to let it fall but eventually it happened." said Mann. ,,Those boys got so angry at me. They
He was able to freely roam the network, and stole several files, including the source code of the International Space Station. According to NASA, the value of the documents stolen by James was estimated at around $1.7 million. James explained that he downloaded the code to supplement his studies on C programming, but contended, "The code itself was crappy. James was sentenced to six months house arrest and probation until the age of eighteen, and was required to write letters of apology to NASA and the Department of Defense. He was also banned from using computers for recreational purposes. On May 18, 2008, James was found dead in his shower with a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head because Secret Service agents accused him of being part of the conspiracy responsible for the largest identity theft in U.S. history. In a five page suicide note, James wrote that he was innocent, but was certain federal officials would make him a scapegoat.

This was quite dangerous and could have caused an accident. In addition, it overlooked an unattractive car park in contrast to the `great view' you advertised. Finally, the kitchen was poorly equipped and a lot of essential items were missing, such as plates and saucepans. Consequently, I felt I could not stay any longer and returned home after three days. As you can imagine, I am quite disappointed. I feel I am entitled to a partial refund in addition to an apology for the inconvenience caused. I look forward to receiving a prompt reply.

Catherine Morland My name is Catherine Morland. I would like to tell you a bit about myself. To begin with, I am seventeen years old and grew up in a countryside in a small town named Fullerton with my parents and nine siblings. As a child I was interested in many things like drawing, sports and music. I was very lively and cheerful, enjoyed cricket, horse riding and just hated cleanliness and restriction. As I grew up, I chose reading over sports and all of the wild games I used to like. Undoubtedly, I would now describe myself with the word naivety. I am very naïve and do not notice the most obvious things happening around me. I really hope that it is caused by the lack of experience and will eventually pass. In addition, I find myself a kind and caring person because I always want and agree to help people when needed. Furthermore, I really like reading. Sometimes I think that I read too much because I often mix fiction up with reali...

Everything nourishes what is strong already. But if it be only a slight, thin sort of inclination, I am convinced that one good sonnet will starve it entirely away." Darcy only smiled; and the general pause which ensued made Elizabeth tremble lest her mother should be exposing herself again. She longed to speak, but could think of nothing to say; and after a short silence Mrs. Bennet began repeating her thanks to Mr. Bingley for his kindness to Jane, with an apology for troubling him also with Lizzy. Mr. Bingley was unaffectedly civil in his answer, and forced his younger sister to be civil also, and say what the occasion required. She performed her part indeed without much graciousness, but Mrs. Bennet was satisfied, and soon afterwards ordered her carriage. Upon this signal, the youngest of her daughters put herself forward. The two girls had been whispering to each other during the whole visit, and the result of it was, that the youngest should tax Mr.
Promising is a closely related example: If I utter (1) insincerely, having no intention of paying you your money, it is an infelicitous promise. For that matter, if I shout (1) to you across a crowded room, and you cannot hear me, that is an infelicity of a different sort. There are borderline cases as between strongly constitutive and regulative rules. What if I utter (4), but in a flauntedly unrepentant, jeering, sneering tone? Is that a grievously infelicitous apology, or no apology at all? Austin (1962) was greatly concerned to emphasize the multifariousness of infelicity. An utterance can go wrong in any one of any number of quite different ways. It can be an ill-advised move in a game, as when one utters (6) because one has miscalculated the odds. Or it may be insincere. Or one may lack the standing or authority to perform an act of the kind intended. Or it may be very rude. Or it may be made too softly and go unheard. Or it may
The bond between us was fragile just then, both of us apprehensive about the future and the wounds we could inflict with all of our jagged edges. His lips wrapped around my nipple, his cheeks hollowing slowly, his seduction subdued. The tender suckling felt so good I gasped and arched into his hand. He caressed my side from breast to hip and back again, over and over, gentling me as my heart raced wildly. He kissed across my chest to the other breast, murmuring words of apology and need in a voice broken by regret and misery. His tongue lapped at the hardened point, worrying it, before surrounding it with wet heat and suction. "Gideon." The delicate pulls expertly coaxed desire through my skittish mind. My body was already lost in him, greedily seeking the pleasure and beauty of his. "Don't be afraid of me," he whispered. "Don't pull away." He kissed my navel, and then moved lower, his hair caressing my stomach as he settled between my legs
I could feel the hurt and shock on my face. My empty hands stung. "I'm... sorry... Edward," I whispered. I knew he could hear. "Give me a moment," he called, just loud enough for my less sensitive ears. I sat very still. After ten incredibly long seconds, he walked back, slowly for him. He stopped, still several feet away, and sank gracefully to the ground, crossing his legs. His eyes never left mine. He took two deep breaths, and then smiled in apology. "I am so very sorry." He hesitated. "Would you understand what I meant if I said I was only human?" I nodded once, not quite able to smile at his joke. Adrenaline pulsed through my veins as the realization of danger slowly sank in. He could smell that from where he sat. His smile turned mocking. "I'm the world's best predator, aren't I? Everything about me invites you in -- my voice, my face, even my smell. As if I need any of that!" Unexpectedly, he was on his feet, bounding away, instantly
deal. Later, before the contract is signed, the used-car manager says that the sales- person's estimate was $400 too high and reduces the trade-in allowance to its ac- tual, blue-book level. The customer, realizing that the reduced offer is the fair one, accepts it as appropriate and sometimes feels guilty about trying to take advantage of the salesperson's high estimate. I once witnessed a woman provide an embar- rassed apology to a salesman who had used the last version of low-balling on her- this while she was signing a new-car contract giving him a huge commission. He looked hurt but managed a forgiving smile. No matter which variety of low-balling is used, the sequence is the same: An advantage is offered that induces a favorable purchase decision. Then, sometime after the decision has been made, but before the bargain is sealed, the original pur-
