The final remarks in a letter are called what?

• A. Closing Statement
• B. Enclosure
• C. Review
• D. Predicate

Answer: (A)

Ending a letter is about the closing remarks—the polite sign-off and signature that finish the message. This is called the closing statement because it signals that the communication is wrapping up and leaves the reader with a courteous closing. It’s separate from an enclosure, which would be anything included with the letter; from a review, which is an assessment of content; and from a predicate, which is a grammar term. So the closing statement fits best as the term for the part that ends the letter with a final, courteous tone.
