DIFFERENT BETWEEN JARGONS AND REGISTER

-

 



Jargons and Registers are two different concepts in linguistics.

 Jargons are specialized words or expressions that are used by a particular profession or group and are difficult for others to understand. Registers are varieties of language that are appropriate for different situations, contexts, or audiences. Registers can vary in vocabulary, grammar, phonology, and semantics, depending on the level of formality, purpose, and tone of the communication.


Some examples of jargons are:

  • Amicus curiae brief: a legal term for a document that provides information or arguments to a court by someone who is not directly involved in the case

  • Hyperbole: a literary term for a figure of speech that exaggerates something for emphasis or effect.

  • Photosynthesis: a scientific term for the process by which plants use light energy to make their own food.


Some examples of registers are:


  1. Formal register: a style of language that is polite, respectful, and follows the rules of grammar and punctuation. It is often used in academic, professional, or legal settings. For example:


    Dear Sir/Madam

     I am writing to express my interest in the position of Marketing Manager at your company. I have over five years of experience in the field and a master's degree in Business Administration. I believe I have the skills and qualifications to contribute to your success.

    Sincerely,

 John Smith

2. Informal register: a style of language that is casual, relaxed, and uses slang, abbreviations, or colloquialisms. It is often used in everyday conversations, social media, or personal letters. For example:

 Hi there,

     How's it going? I'm so excited for the weekend. Do you want to hang out at the mall? Maybe we can catch a movie or grab some pizza. Let me know what you think.

    Cheers,

Jane Doe
