A telegram is a message that is transmitted by a telegraph.
- In writing a telegram, every word costs money. There is a standing charge for the 1st 10
words. If you want to save money, say precisely what you want in a few words.
Leave out:
- Determiners : a, an, the, some, any e.g. The parcel arrived this morning.
PARCEL ARRIVED MORNING
- Pronouns: I, he, them, she, they, e.g.
She was admitted yesterday
ADMITTED YESTERDAY
- Words like possessive nouns and adjectives. E.g. his/ our/ their/her
WE SOLD OUR CAR YESTERDAY
- Prepositions: e.g. on, in, at e.g I saw JOSEPH at the market
SAW JOSEPH MARKET
- A full stop is indicated by the word 'STOP' in a telegram. Numerals can be used instead
of words. E.g. forty two – 42.
- The sender's name is also counted as a word and should be written after the message.
E.g.
WIFE DELIVERED BABY GIRL STOP DISCHARGED STOP JOHN
