To help you categorize items as either formal or informal, I can provide examples of traits or characteristics for each style. Here’s a general guideline:
Formal Style:
- Uses sophisticated vocabulary and proper grammar
- Avoids contractions (e.g., "cannot" instead of "can't")
- Employs a serious tone
- Typically follows established conventions in writing (like citations)
- Commonly used in academic or professional contexts
Informal Style:
- Uses casual language and slang
- May use contractions (e.g., "can't" instead of "cannot")
- Employs a conversational tone
- More personal and subjective
- Commonly used in everyday communication, like texts or social media
If you have specific items to categorize, please provide them, and I can assist in sorting them into the correct style!
