I already figured this out, so now I focus on cutting it short for the busy teachers. Tldr first and then whatever details are necessary.

Yeah these kids deal with email like once a month and I get 300 a day, 100 need replies you're damn right it's gonna be one word if possible

Really it should be considered a success, if your email can get a single word reply you gave all the necessary information in an intelligible format.

I really had this couple of days ago. A politely email, good grammer and all in my native language to the professor.

And the professor emailed back with “that’s a dick move of your dog. Here’s word document is in the attachment, now your dog can’t eat it anymore”.

I laughed but was caught off guard lol.
