I mean which sounds more appropriate and more benefits?
okay first what situations do you think you would want to use formal language for when writing? What are your thoughts?
well you have to be careful about if you use formal or informal language to a specific audience, usually you would use informal language while texting your friends or someone your own age, so what choice(s) do you think can be eliminated here?
Alright, since none of you are really doing much, I'm just gonna do this. For A, it's email from a journalist to a college professor. For B, it's text messages to a friend with THOUGHTS ABOUT A CLASS PROJECT. For C, It's postcard to a parent from a student on a class trip[/] For D, A note for a teenager[/] with instructions on how to prepare dinner. Just look at each one very closely
._. Ignore the fact that I messed up the italics.
well look at the people in each option answer choice and find out if you would speak formally or informally to them
:?
so let's look at choices we know aren't right so we can eliminate them. Which one do you think we could eliminate first?
To clear things up a bit for you Tet... What KingPizza said here:
friend or parent
No. xD They really would have no care about if you talk formally.
Who sounds more important to speak to formally
well honestly if I direct message you on here and we talk as friends we could talk informally because that's what friends like to do, so now you know that it is not important to talk to friends formally, you can talk to them informally.
journalist would be informal i think
Why do you think this?
and if you talk to a friend informally about a project, they don't care as long as they can understand you so choice B is eliminated
i think because its there job and they have to
You would he half right. You can talk to a journalist informally and formally, but in A, what other person is in the sentence?
professional
**Professor But yeah, you're close. smh. It's a college professor, so you want IMPRESSION on them. So would you talk formally or informally?
also, you're asking the professor for an interview so keep in mind that extra information when you decide if they would want you to talk informally or formally.
