a) What is a telegram? Write any four features of a good telegram.

What is a telegram?

A telegram is a short, urgent message sent through a telegraph system or electronic means for quick communication. It is typically concise, direct, and used for important or time-sensitive information. Telegrams are charged based on the number of words, so brevity is essential.

Four features of a good telegram:

  1. Conciseness – A good telegram should be brief and to the point, avoiding unnecessary details.
  2. Clarity – The message must be clear and easy to understand without ambiguity.
  3. Correctness – Proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation should be maintained.
  4. Urgency – The message should convey a sense of importance or immediacy.

b) Write a telegram to your friend informing about your absence in an important meeting.

Explanation:

  • Conciseness: The message is short (20 words) and avoids unnecessary details.
  • Clarity: It clearly states the reason for absence (illness) and the expected follow-up.
  • Correctness: Proper grammar, punctuation, and capitalization are used.
  • Urgency: The word "URGENT" emphasizes the importance of the message.

Note: In NEB exams, telegrams are graded on brevity, clarity, correctness, and urgency. Always keep the word count minimal while ensuring the message is complete.
