    • It was great/nice to receive it.
    • It was great to receive it.your letter.¶

      NOTE: While the word "great" is okay, it is very much overused. It's actual meaning is equivalent to "великий" or even (depending on context) "огромный" -- so you can see how its application in this sentence is somewhat an aggrandizement. My opinion is you will be better served w/ a word (as others have suggested) like "nice" or "lovely" or even "pleasing"... i.e., expressions of sincere gratitude and pleasure/happiness. Меня понимаете то?¶

    • In your letter you asked me about communication .how we might communicate. ¶

      NOTE: I am guessing that this letter to "Lisa" is in reference to a proposed language exchange, and that by "communicate" you mean, in this instance, how to go about having conversation(s) with Lisa?

    • Well, usually II prefer to use Skype to communicate with my friends when they're not round

      NOTE: Ah yes, I was correct in my previous assertion (see comment @ previous sentence). Ok, it is this simple: you tell a person which communication applications you have, do not have, and of those you do not have, which you are willing to DL and istall (e.g., Viber) and which you refuse to use (e.g., WhatsApp)

      NOTE: In America we call these "special birds" by a special name, i.e., "Carrier Pigeon." We used them extensively in World War II, the Korean War, some (but not a lot) in Vietnam, and finally in the First Afghan War (ie, 1980-1990)

    • What is the term of your driving license?

      NOTE: I understand that you are alluding to the period during which Lisa's license (licence) remains valid, ie, how long before it expires and she must renew the license (licence). Maybe a better way to write this question is:¶

      How long is your license (licence) valid, Lisa? ¶

      NOTE: As with the words "driving" and "drivers", Brits and Americans have two different ways of spelling (but pronouncing exactly the same) the words "Licence" (British) and "License" (American). As I was raised in America but my mother and grandparents were fully English, I write this word "both ways", depending on my mood and whichever spelling happens to fall from my fingers, though for the most part I spell it "licence" as I learned this spelling first and have used it the longest.¶

      NOTE: This is also true of the word "Defence" (British) and "Defense" (American).

      COMMENT: I think we can all agree that "Yours" is sufficient for such a communique. Using such parting words as "hugs" and/or "kisses" is usually reserved for more intimate friendships and The French (I know, I live in France and even my MALE friends @ the gym sign off text messages to me w/ "hugs". Really? And EVERY French woman I know signs off with "Kisses". Oh well, I'm used to it by now. -exRanger
