letter

(1) A singular character from the Latin alphabet used to represent one sound used in speech.
If you're literate, this should be common knowledge.

(2) An envelope containing a written message in it, which is usually delivered to friends and family.
But hardly anyone does that anymore in the 2020s. 🤷

--- example ---

𝗦𝗮𝗺𝘂𝗲𝗹 : "Hey, Frederick! I sent you a letter last Friday. Did you read it?"
𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗸 : "That's incredibly ironic coming from a 16 year-old like you."
𝗦𝗮𝗺𝘂𝗲𝗹 : "It is?"

Soviet letter opener machinery

a humorous way of referring to the Berlin Wall.

It effectively acted as a "letter opener," preventing communication and movement between the two sides.

We were expecting letters from our family in the USSR, but never heard from them, due to the "Soviet letter opener machinery" keeping people from emigrating and preventing brain drain.
