Let's take a quick look.

Introduction to writing

Formal Language

Why? To prepare for essay writing (+ academic/business writing)

What do you think of when you hear 'formal language'?

Formal writing in a nutshell

- Formal language = more 'expensive' wording

- No contractions = can't = cannot / won't = will not 

- Do not use questions

- In an essay = do not use 'I'

- Use linking words (First, second)

- Focus on lay-out: Empty line between each paragraph
