2. What is Register?
 Register is how text type
accommodates the way language
generally varies as situation vary.
 The relationship between the writer’s
attitude and the variety chosen is very
important in the study of written
language.

3. Use and User Language
 In dealing with the context of situation
from a translation perspective, we
entertain the generally accepted
socio-linguistic assumption that
language use varies as its context
varies, and the different language
varieties emerge to cater for different
contexts.

4. Institutional-Communicative
Context
 Institutional-communicative context is
focused in who is communicating with
whom, what is being communicated,
and how this is communicated.
 Together with intentionality and
intertextuality, register mediates
between language and situation.

6. Functional Tenor
 Tenor is level of formality.
 Tenor has to do with the level of
formality of the relationship between
the participants in the linguistic event.
 Functional tenor is the category used
to describe what language is being
used for in the situation. (e.g to
persuade, to discipline, to inform)

7. Semiotic interaction: Ideational,
interpersonal and textual
metafunction
 Semiotic interaction is negotiation between
speaker and hearer or writer and reader forms
the basis of one fairly rudimentary level.
 Ideational is what is going on in and around
the text.
 Interpersonal is attitude and assessment by
speakers of what is happening around and
through them.
 Textual is how ideational and interpersonal
expression acquires cohesion and coherent in
a given textual environment.
