20. Developing mastery
Communicative style or language register is the level of formality with which you speak.
Frozen or Static
At this level, language is literally ―frozen‖ in time and form. It does not change. This type of language is often
learned and repeated by rote. Examples are biblical verse, prayers, the Pledge of Allegiance, and others.
Formal
This style is impersonal and often follows a prescriptive format. The speaker uses complete sentences, avoids
slang and may use technical or academic vocabulary. This is the register used for most academic and scientific
publishing. This is the standard for work, school, and business.
Consultative
This is the register used when consulting an expert such as a doctor. The language used is more precise. The
speaker is likely to address the expert by a title such as Doctor, Mr. or Mrs.
Casual
This register is conversational in tone. It is the language used among and between friends. Words are general,
rather than technical. This register may include more slang and colloquialisms.
Intimate
The language used by lovers. It is also the language used in sexual harassment. This is the most intimate form of
language. It is best avoided in public and professional situations.

concepts and skills in daily living.

register the student will work on.

your teacher during the individual activity, pair share activity and group
