Do you know the difference
between
formal and informal writing?

When do you
use formal English?

Formal English

Use:

In situations that are serious or that involve people we don’t know well.

Informal English

Use:

More commonly used in situations that are more relaxed and involve people we know well.

Formal 

Vocabulary does not resemble spoken English.

Contractions less used.

Less personal language (I less used more in passive forms).

Fewer phrasal verbs used

Ideas expressed more indirectly

Informal

More like spoken English.

Using contractions give it a more relaxed tone.

Use of I, we, you are common.

Use of phrasal verbs.

Direct language.

What is a phrasal verb?

A verb (e.g., “It goes”) becomes a phrasal verb with the addition of one preposition (e.g., “The light goes out”) or more (e.g., “She goes out with him”). Each additional preposition completely changes the meaning of the verb.

They called off the meeting.

 > The meeting was called off.

Formal

that is 

Can I assume

Informal

I'm sorry for

I'm happy

that's

Will you give me
