secured an appointment.. Explanation: This is typically redundant in English. Here, it is designed to emphasize the link between 'matter' and 'Termin'. In English, it would sound stilted to insert a qualifier before appointment but that link can still be strengthened by selecting an appropriate verb that expresses a sense of urgency or importance. Regarding the matter above, we would like to inform you that our clients have secured an appointment.. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2018-02-02 20:26:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- As this sentence has been presented in a vacuum and xxx apparently denotes different things, it's hard to put it all together. But something along these lines might work: Regarding the matter above, we would like to inform you that our clients have secured an appointment on XXX pertaining to the absorption of round trip costs to and from XXX, making it possible for a trip to XXX to be scheduled from xxx through xxx. |
