常見錯誤

❌Please find the encl file.
✅Please find the encl: invoice and receipt.
💡'encl' is not an adjective that modifies a noun; it marks a list of attachments.
❌I will encl the documents.
✅I will enclose the documents.
💡'encl' is a written abbreviation, not a verb; use the full verb 'enclose' in sentences.
