III. SPEECH FUNCTIONS DEVELOPED

1. Asking for Permission (Favours).

2. Asking for Information.

Are you sure that you have "a feel" for saying the right thing at the right time? Why is it important to say the right thing at the right time and place? Because it helps people to communicate effectively. Using language appropriately helps to improve communication. But any "^appropriate using can have the opposite effect. For example you will sound quite ridiculous if you use very formal expressions in informal situations. Likewise it's not proper to use informal expressions in for­mal situations.

. The choice of neutral, informal or formal expressions depends on ^th whom, where and when we speak. You can use neutral expres­sions at any time. It doesn't matter who you are talking to or when, °-^J^here. Informal expressions are used with your friends or relatives, expressions are used with your employer, teacher and so on.


O-l. Study these formulas.
