holds an important role in helping the employee to maintain a positive relationship with his/ her old boss, and paves the way for him or her to move on However, this kind of letters does not receive much attention from the researchers in English and Vietnamese Therefore, so as to help people have better understanding of resignation letters and see the similarities and differences in writing style of English and Vietnamese resignation letters, this thesis studies discourse structures of 20 resignation letters (10 in English and 10 in Vietnamese); then compares and contrasts them The major methods used in this thesis are „move analysis‟ approach, comparison and contrast methods The result of the study shows that the structures of English and Vietnamese resignation letters are basically similar They only have some differences in the length of the letters and the kinds of moves From the result of the analysis, the characteristics of resignation letters both in English and Vietnamese can be clarified Then, the knowledge of discourse structure of English and Vietnamese resignation letter can be applied in writing an effective and persuasive letter of resignation TABLE OF CONTENTS

PART C – CONCLUSION Conclusions All in all, due to a limited corpus this study gives a brief description of discourse structure analysis in English and Vietnamese resignation letters; and at the same time this thesis shows the similarities and differences between these two letters From the analysis, comparison and contrast between English and Vietnamese resignation letters, we can see that the structure of English resignation letters is basically similar to that of Vietnamese ones They only have some differences in the length of the letters and the kinds of moves In the detail, the letter of resignation in English tends to be shorter than the one in Vietnamese The English letter has moves including „Opening, Addressing, Stating resignation and informing the last day of work, Giving the reason of resignation positively, Expressing the willingness to help with the trasition, Requesting interest from the old company, Showing gratitude and wishing success, Ending‟, while Vietnamese letter has 10 moves such as „Opening, Addressing, introducing oneself, Stating resignation and informing the last working date, Stating the reason of resignation, Expressing the willingness to help with the trasition, Comitting oneself to fulfil one‟s duty, Showing gratitude and wishing success, Requesting interest from the old company, Ending‟ Although selected samples for this study seem to be out-of-date since they are dated sometimes in the past Nevertheless, they will be all new to those who intend to give up their jobs without making their old boss unpleasant, and at the same time pave the way for them to move on With all the enthusiasm for the thesis, the author hope that this research to be useful to them Recommendations We should keep in mind that a successful resignation letter can help the employee leave his/ her job easily and still maintain a good relationship with his or her old company and old employer Thus, when we write this kind of letter we should be aware of the following notice: 47 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com

Firstly, we have to decide what to say before starting to write a letter so as to find a good way to complete the sentences That means a letter should be always planned ahead to avoid unnecessary reiterations which bore the readers or omissions of important information Secondly, we should base on basic moves and steps of a letter of resignation to know which content should be included in the letter and which should be not After that, all the necessary points should be arranged in a logical sequence Each idea links up with the previous and following ones in a pattern that can be easy to follow Besides, each idea should be put in a separate paragraph to make the letter coherent Moreover, we should use short, simple and easy-to-understand words but they still convey the message effectively In order to this, we should take ten key characteristics of a resignation letter into consideration They are: conciseness, clarity, consideration of the readers‟ needs, completeness, concreteness, courtesy, coherence, correctness, credibility, and consistency One more important point is that we should be aware of the similarities and differences between English and Vietnamese resignation letters so that we know how to use structures and vocabularies properly, and select the right tone which is suitable to English or Vietnamese All the points mentioned above are given in the process of doing this research with the hope that these suggestions will be useful for the people who intend to write a successful resignation letter or the people that pay attention to this kind of letter as well Limitations and Suggestions for Further Study The author hopes that this paper, to some extent, can help the readers understand more about the content and how to organize a resignation letter based on the „move analysis‟ However, within the time allowance and the writer does not have enough deep learning; therefore, the limitations in this study are unavoidable The first drawback is the limited size of the corpus, for the study of 20 resignation letters (both in English and Vietnamese) can only lead to tentative conclusions instead of applicable generalizations The second limitation is the lack of cohesive devices analysis of such genre in this study due to limited sources 48 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com

From the limitations of this thesis, the author suggests that further study should select larger samples and focus on analyzing cohesive devices in this kind of letter To conclude, this descriptive study seeks not to confirm or reject hypotheses but rather to generate hypotheses and stimulate further research for the study of the resignation letter as a genre Therefore, all the findings about English and Vietnamese resignation letters should be tested by future research and compared with the move structure in resignation letters for other graduate programs 49 TIEU LUAN MOI download :
