Detailed explanation-1: -Gifts are irrevocable; promises to make gifts are unenforceable. Gifts are part of property law; promises to make gifts are part of contract law.
Detailed explanation-2: -Oral contracts are generally considered as valid as written contracts, although this depends on the jurisdiction and, often, the type of contract. In some jurisdictions, some types of contracts must be written to be considered legally binding.
