level and register of language Explanation: .. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-03-16 03:21:57 (GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- I beg to differ with Allan\'s statement. While these two terms are close and/or related, they refer to different concepts. Language level: when you speak to an uneducated person, you very unlikly will use high-brow language. You will choose simple terms to get the message across. Language register: depends on the situation, i.e. colloquial, formal, youth speak etc. |
