About Fill in the Blank questions

A Fill in the Blank question consists of a phrase, sentence, or paragraph with a blank space where a student provides the missing word or words. You can also create a question with multiple blanks .

[Patriarchy] translates to "rule by the father."

This is how a student views a fill in the blank question.

Fill in the Blank questions are graded automatically. Answers are scored based on if student answers match the correct answers you provide. You choose the evaluation method for answers:

  • Exact match
  • Contains part of the correct answer
  • Matches a pattern that you specify

You choose whether or not the answers are case-sensitive.

Answers need to be accurate (exact match) or chosen to match a pattern and be defined accordingly.

Create a Fill in the Blank question

When you create a new test , select the plus sign to open the menu. In an existing test, select the plus sign wherever you want to add a question. Select Add Fill in the Blank question .

You'll use the same process when you create questions in tests and assignments.

This is how test in edit view with add question menu expanded looks like.

Type your question and add brackets around the answer. You can use the options in the editor to format the text and add formulas, files, images, and links.

Separate multiple correct answers with a semicolon.

Example : One of the primary colors is [red;blue;yellow].

You may also use a regular expression. Only one expression per blank will be recognized. Note that you add brackets around the regular expression and around the answer.

Example : [[a-zA-Z]] is a letter in the alphabet.

Questions have a default value of 10 points. Select the Points box to type a new value.

Note that Save is disabled because you need to make settings in the next step. Select Next Step to continue.

This is the edit view of a fill in the blank question.

In the Response type menu, choose how the answer is evaluated against a student's answer:

  • Contain match

Match a pattern

Select the Case sensitive check box if you want to take capitalization into account.

Select Previous Step if you need to make edits. Select Save when you're finished.

This is the edit view of a fill in the blank question with the buttons previous step and save highlighted.

The question displays which response type you chose, such as Responses must match exactly .

About creating answers

Keep answers for the blanks simple and brief. To avoid difficulties with auto-grading, you can limit answers to one word. One-word answers prevent issues such as extra spaces or word order causing a correct answer to be scored as incorrect.

  • Select Contain match from the Response type menu to allow for abbreviations or partial answers. This option counts a student's answer as correct if it includes the word or words you specify. For example, set up a single answer that contains Franklin so that Benjamin Franklin, Franklin, B Franklin, B. Franklin, and Ben Franklin are all counted as correct answers. Then, you don't have to list all the acceptable possibilities for the answer Benjamin Franklin.
  • Select Match a pattern from the Response type menu and create a regular expression that allows for spelling, spacing, or capitalization variations.

When you choose to match a pattern for an answer, you can test the pattern and a new window opens. A check mark appears for a pattern that works. You can also type an expected correct answer and test your pattern.

You'll receive an error message if your pattern can't be evaluated so you can make changes.

Example of an error message if a pattern can't be evaluated.

Regular Expressions for Matching

You can create a regular expression that allows for spelling, spacing, or capitalization variations in an answer.

A regular expression is a search pattern used for matching one or more characters within a string. With regular expressions, you can count certain patterns as correct, rather than an exact text match. For example, regular expressions enable grading of the wide range of possible answers that are typical of scientific data.

In a regular expression, most characters in the string match only themselves and are called literals . Some characters have special meaning and are called metacharacters . 

For a comprehensive list, see  Pattern (Java SE 11 & JDK 11 ) (oracle.com) .  

Character examples:

  • A dot (.) matches any single character except newline characters.
  • Brackets [ ] match anything inside the square brackets for one character.
  • A dash (-) inside square brackets allows you to define a range. For example, [0123456789] can be rewritten as [0-9].
  • A question mark (?) makes the preceding item in the regular expression optional. For example, Dec(ember)? will match Dec and December.

Simple string examples:

  • b.t - matches with bat, bet, but, bit, b9t because any character can take the place of the dot (.).
  • b[aeui]t matches bat, bet, but, bit.
  • b[a-z]t will accept any three-letter combination that begins with b and ends with t. A number won't be accepted as the second character.
  • [A-Z] matches any uppercase letter.
  • [12] matches the target character to 1 or 2.
  • [0-9] matches the target character to any number in the range 0 to 9.

When you choose to match a pattern for an answer, you can test the pattern and a new window opens.

After submissions exist

You can edit the text of most questions and answers, even after students have made submissions. For example, you may have chosen the wrong answer, found a typo, or want to adjust points or scoring options. You can make a change for all students to see and automatically update all grades.

After students open the test, you can't add new questions and blanks, delete a question or blank, or move the content.

200 Catchy Email Subject Lines (And How to Make Them!)

Create email subject lines where people WANT to open your emails! Learn about the key do’s and don’t’s and pick one of these 200 fantastic options.

Subscribe to our weekly newsletter

Your email subject line is the most important part of your email. In fact, Hubspot 1 https://blog.hubspot.com/sales/subject-line-stats-open-rates-slideshare reports that 35% of email recipients open an email based on the subject line alone.

This article will help you learn what goes into creating an email subject line that people want to click. Plus, you’ll get 200 actual email subject line examples you can use.

Let’s dive in.

What is An Email Subject Line? (Definition)

An email subject line or headline is the first line of text someone reads when they receive your email. This is the line of text you’ll usually type to grab the attention of your email recipient.

A graphic image from Science of People showing a new email being drafted with the subject line: "subject lines are important!"

Email subject lines are crucial—they are the first impression. You might write the best email in the world, but if your subject line stinks, then nobody will read it. 

A fair bit of psychology goes into writing a captivating email subject line. Let’s go into the key do’s and don’t’s. 

Email Subject Line Do’s and Don’t’s

Do make sure to follow these best practices!

  • Do Be Clear and Concise: Make the subject line clear, brief, and relevant.
  • Do Use an Emoji: Emojis create a personalized flair. But if you use too many, it’ll be in the spam folder.
  • Do Personalize: Write the recipient’s first name to boost the open rate 2 https://mailchimp.com/resources/catchy-email-subject-lines/ . 
  • Do Use Emotion-Driven Words. Evocative words will create feelings. Feelings will make clicks.
  • Do Leverage Curiosity: Hint at something intriguing without giving it away. Curiosity is a powerful force.
  • Do Test and Optimize: Try A/B testing for different subject lines to determine which tactic resonates best with your audience.
  • Send at the Right Time: 11:00 am EST has the highest open rate 3 https://blog.hubspot.com/sales/best-time-send-email-report-2015?=&_ga=2.141218610.1693432634.1531769354-1791073514.1499368195 for email sends (and Tuesday is the best day to send).
  • Do Emphasize Timing. Subject lines that include dates or a sense of urgency tend to perform better. In a study by Return Path 4 https://returnpath.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/RP-Subject-Line-Report-FINAL.pdf , 9 million subject lines were sent out and analyzed. It turns out that certain urgent phrases and words work better than others:
Still time33.73%
Limited time14.93%
Expiring16.60%
Last chance16.71%
Now15.75%
Expire16.69%
Hurry19.01%
Extended9.20%
Running out9.92%

But don’t abuse their fear of missing out, or you’ll come off as spammy and stressful.

Also, be careful of these “don’t’s:”

  • Don’t Write Misleading Content: If you make a clickbait subject that doesn’t match the email content, your trust will go down the toilet.
  • Don’t Use Spammy Language: Avoid overused sales language and excessive punctuation or all caps, which can trigger spam filters. You probably wouldn’t open an email with the subject: “🔥🎉🚀 HURRY!!! Your EXCLUSIVE Deal Awaits! 🌟💰💸 Open NOW for FREE MONEY! 🎁🎁🎁”
  • Don’t Write Overly Long Subject Lines: Long subject lines often get cut off, especially on mobile devices.
  • Don’t Ask For Things: Mailchimp 2 https://mailchimp.com/resources/catchy-email-subject-lines/ analyzed thousands of words related to donations and found that words such as “helping,” “fundraising,” “charity,” and “donate” all lead to negative effects on open rates. Instead, you might want to save the asking (if any) for later.
  • Don’t Include Typos: A typo in the subject line screams unprofessional and unprepared.

A graphic image made by Science of People of a quote by Leo Burnett. It says "Make it simple. make it memorable. Make it inviting to look at. Make it fun to read." This relates to the article on email subject lines.

Now, let’s get into some sample subject lines that you can use for your emails!

Catchy Email Subject Lines

Here are some really good subject lines that work for almost all occasions–just make sure they are true! Don’t use that subject line if you do not have an important announcement.

  • “I have an important announcement.” Mailchimp 2 https://mailchimp.com/resources/catchy-email-subject-lines/ found that “announcement” (and similar words) caused a higher open rate. People want to be in the know!
  • “Question for you” This email subject line invites the receiver to open your email and help you. It also works because of the Benjamin Franklin Effect —when someone does a favor for you, they end up liking you more!
  • “Hey there, [name], check this out.”
  • “Your Sneak Peek Inside the Future of [ whatever your industry is] “
  • “🌟 Exclusive Offer Just for You – Ends Tonight!”
  • “Can You Believe This Happened?”
  • “Unlock the Secrets to Effortless Productivity”
  • “You’ve Never Seen Deals Like These 🚀”
  • “🎉 Surprise Inside: A Gift Just for You!”
  • “This One Mistake Could Cost You (And How to Avoid It)”
  • “Flash Sale Alert: 50% Off Your Favorites!”
  • “This Week’s Top 10 Must-Reads for You”

If you’d like to boost the content of your email as well, check out our video below for 7 tips to improve your emails.

Best Email Subject Lines for Sales

Sales are tricky because you want to balance relatability and selling perfectly. You also don’t want to mislead, which is EXTREMELY easy in sales emails.

An email subject line from GovX that hints toward a "free" knife, even though it's just a discount.

GovX uses an email subject line that hints toward a “free” knife… but it’s just a discount. Bummer!

Many people who report emails as spam send those reports based on the subject line alone. Here are great examples to nail your sales subject line for your email campaign:

  • “You Have Two Choices.” Everyone loves to play games, and everyone likes to have options. This is a great subject line for sales, as choices influence people to take action.
  • “Why You Can’t [insert problem here]” Why you can’t lose weight. Why you can’t sleep at night? Why you can’t feel happy at work? Find a common problem and offer reasons (hopefully your solution!).
  • “Psst… Here’s a freebie.” People love the word “free,” but did you know the word “freebie” works even better 2 https://mailchimp.com/resources/catchy-email-subject-lines/ ? Add this to your email, but please make sure to make the freebie worth it (or risk getting unsubs!).
  • “So. Many. Deals… Find Something AMAZING Now 💸”  
  • “You’re a Perfect Fit For [insert opportunity here].”  
  • “Save up to $10/month for life”  
  • “Hey, you forgot this—here’s your 20% off!” 
  • “Get a [adjective] $20 off your next order.”  
  • “Ready for a Game-Changer?”
  • “Limited Time Offer: 30% Off Your Next Purchase!”
  • “Solve [Problem] with This One Simple Tool”
  • “Last Chance: Don’t Miss Out on This Deal!”
  • “How to Achieve [Desired Outcome]”
  • “Exclusive Offer: Buy One, Get One Free Today Only!”
  • “Join the Revolution: Be the First to Experience [Product/Service]”
  • “Flash Sale: Prices Slashed for 24 Hours Only!”
  • “See Why [Product/Service] is a Customer Favorite”
  • “Don’t just take our word for it.” 

Newsletter Subject Lines

Are you sending out a weekly/biweekly newsletter to your subscribers? Here are some great email subject lines to share in a blog post or an email marketing campaign.

  •  “Fake Friends” Vanessa Van Edwards, the founder of Science of People, used this subject line in one of their newsletters, and it was a HIT! It’s short and gets the reader wondering, What are you talking about? Try combining a short subject line with an interesting/lesser-known topic.
  • “One simple way to make yourself happier.” Ramit Sethi uses this fabulous newsletter subject line, which works because it provides value! Find a problem and offer a solution.

  • “3 crazy theories that [interesting thing here] .” Mark Manson grabs the reader’s attention in this email’s subject line by being super intriguing. Who doesn’t want to read up on something almost too crazy to believe?

  • “You’re Invited!”  
  • “Learn how to [skill here].”  
  • “Studies show only 10% of people can…”

  • “This ‘secret’ could [results reader wants].”
  • “[Recipient’s Name], Open This Email ASAP”
  • “[Recipient’s Name], I just noticed…”
  • “My biggest regret?”
  • “Here’s the hard truth…”
  • “The secret that [successful people in this industry] won’t tell you…but we will!”
  • “No one will teach you this…”

Are you going on a job hunt? Once you’ve prepared your resume , decked out your LinkedIn , and perfected your elevator pitch , it’s time to move on to the email.

Sending out emails to companies you’re looking to get hired at can be daunting, but it doesn’t have to be! Here are my favorite lines that work more often than not:

  • “CV for [job position] — available immediately.” Try being direct and putting as much info as possible upfront. This one shows you’re ready and organized.
  • “[Job Position] — [Name]” This is a variation of the above. Use this one if you don’t have a specific time you’ll be available or a CV ready yet.
  • “Looking to help.” 
  • “Following up on…” 
  • “Referred by [friend] — [name]”  
  • “[Your credentials] with over X years of experience.”  
  • “Thank you — [job position].”  
  • “URGENT: Need by EOD” 
  • “Eager to Bring [Unique Skill] to [Company’s Name] Team!”
  • “Aspiring [Job Title] Passionate About [Company’s Industry/Value]”
  • “Excited About the Opportunity to Join [Company’s Name]!”
  • “Driven [Your Profession] Ready to Make an Impact at [Company’s Name]”
  • “Enthusiastic [Your Role] Excited About [Company’s Name] ‘s Vision”

Holiday Email Subject Lines

Holidays are a great time, especially if you’re in sales. Check these out if you’re a marketer or want to build up your customer base:

  • “💥 Holiday Special” According to Omnisend 7 https://www.omnisend.com/blog/holiday-email-subject-lines/ , this was the #1 email subject line that got the most opens. It’s simple and effective.
  • “5 Thanksgiving Facts to Know” There are a lot of interesting facts about Thanksgiving, Black Friday , and other holidays.
  • “Happy Birthday [name here]—Here’s a Gift!” Combine a birthday and a gift, and you’ve got a one-two combo for an excellent email. Don’t forget to include a decent gift, though, or the receiver might feel like they’ve wasted their time.
  • “Happy Holidays from [company/individual name]”  
  • “HO HO NO!!! Last Day For [Benefit Here]!” 
  • “[Holiday] Guide: Everything You Need to Know”  
  • “Happy Holidays From [name]!”  
  • “The FIRST Thing to Do After [holiday].”  
  • “🎄 Unwrap Your Early Holiday Surprise Inside!”
  • “Guess What’s Coming This Holiday Season… 🌟”
  • “🎁 Secret Holiday Deals Just for You!”
  • “Sneak Peek: Our Magical Holiday Collection!”
  • “🎅 Shh… Santa’s Got a Special Message for You!”
  • “Your Guide to a Stress-Free Holiday is Here”
  • “The Holiday Gift You Didn’t Know You Needed”
  • “🌟 Holiday Wishes and Dreamy Deals Inside”

Whatever line you choose, keep it positive and uplifting to stay in good holiday spirits.

Funny Subject Lines

Science shows that humor is one of the best ways to connect with people. If you’re looking to add humor to your emails, try one of these funny lines:

  • “Since we can’t all win the lottery…” Include something in the body email: “We might not all be lucky, but at least we can [achievable goal here].”
  • “It’s time to unleash your inner [noun].” This is a fun one if you want to show a little personality. Great to use for holidays (replace a noun with “Santa”), business meetings (replace with “Mark Cuban”), or even friendly get-togethers (replace with “Unicorn”).

An email subject line that says “It’s time to unleash your inner Deadpool.”

  • “Shh… This is for you only.”  
  • “Why did the chicken cross the road?”  
  • “May the Fourth be with you” 
  • “Re:re:re: let’s chat?” 
  • “Ugh, not another email!”  
  • “Subject Line”  
  • “How Many [Your Brand] Employees Does It Take to Write an Email?”
  • “👽 Spoiler Alert: We Come in Peace and Bring Discounts!”
  • “This Email is Gluten-Free, Vegan, and Surprisingly Funny!”
  • “Warning: This Email Will Make You Laugh Out Loud 🤣”
  • “🎉 Party in Your Inbox: No RSVP Needed!”

FAQs About Email Subject Lines

The ‘subject’ in an email is a summary of the email’s content, serving as a headline for the recipient to quickly understand the email’s purpose.

The ideal length of an email subject line is typically between 30 and 50 characters, ensuring it is concise yet informative enough to capture the essence of the email. This will give you better open rates and engagement.
