David Beckham er meget glad for deres henvendelse.

Jeg har fundet ord som contact,enquiry og lignende, men jeg synes ikke at nogle af dem passer ind.
Remarks about the translation
helt normal engelsk.

Title
David Beckham is very pleased to receive your letter.
Translation
English

Translated by casper tavernello
Target language: English

David Beckham is very pleased to receive your letter.

I found words like "contact", "enquiry" and so on, but I don't think that any of them fit.
Remarks about the translation
I think the second part is just a comment about the first one, which might be the real request.

Sorry.. I pushed the wrong button

I think it is more correct to say "your inquiry" as the Danish text says "henvendelse" not "henvendelser"

"their inquiry"
By the way, minimig says that "inquiry" doesn't fit.

The whole thing is:

Tak for Deres brev af 15 juli 2004. David beckham er meget glad for deres henvendelse. han har tidligere reklameret for sportstøj, men han vil meget gerne se kollektionen, før han binder sig.

as found on the Internet.
I think that "contact" would be fine, but she also says that it's not and I can't think of other possiblities. =/

I also think that it's like the word "inlägg" in Swedish. The meaning is not quite close, so I won't give it a shot.

Hi guys. Sorry to pop in but what about

approach


instead of inquiry.
and I Agree with Ernst the word is in singular.

My preferred version is quite simple, actually:

David Beckham is very pleased to receive your letter.


"deres" = "your" in formal Danish (it should have been with a capital D, though, to be totally correct)

Hi Anita. As you say your proposal is very simple.
Just one thing I have to ask you about. Is there anything wrong with

approach

..? You know I always ask you when there's something I'm not quite sure about and it's the case here. Of cause I suppose that D.Beckham was approached by letter, but...
Du har lært mig at være lidt pernittengryn så det er jeg altså her.
Jeg skulle nok have heddet "spørgejørgen".

Gamine, I'm no English expert, but I don't think "approach" can be used in this context.


Just one more (little) detail:

but I don't think that some of them fit --> but I don't think ANY of them fit
