Register and Style

As we saw last year, register and style are 2 facts that determines or make the difference between my way of speaking with the way that a Mexican speaks.

REGISTER: Language choices based on the situation, the information being communicated and the target audience. Depends on the context. For example i

n front of the teacher we have to use a formal register, but with our friends we use a informal register.

STYLE: Individual linguistic choices that make a communicative act distinctive. All people have a different style.

Also we have the TONE, that is the attitude that the author takes to express by his writting. (Serious, Optimistic, Humorous, etc). Note: We can find more than 1 tone in a text.
