I have written a letter yesterday. vs I written a letter yesterday.

The correct phrase is "I wrote a letter yesterday." The verb "write" in the past tense should be conjugated as "wrote." The phrase "I have written a letter yesterday" is incorrect because the present perfect tense (have written) is used to indicate an action that happened at an unspecified time before now, not a specific time like yesterday.
