(TOD) Functional Tenor and Degrees of Formality(personal tenor) in advertising
TOD reflects the personal relationships between speaker/writer and hearer/reader-called personal tenor, and reflects what the ur is trying to do with language to his addres-called functional tenor.
Functional tenor tells us the addresr's intention of using the language: for teaching? Persuading? Amusing? Explaining? Controlling? Insulting? Arguing? Satirizing?
Functional tenor is not difficult to discern. Different situational types of language are endowed with different predominant functions, as advertising with persuasion, a lecture w
ith exposition, a political speech with agitation, and the rmon with exhortation and teaching.
For example, we talk of the language of advertising, not becau of there is a particular subject matter associated with advertising but becau there is a consistent function _ to persuade us to buy products or rvice.
Certain functional tenors can hit any point on the personal tenor formality continuum. An expository speech can be formal, with many passive constructions and a technical vocabulary. It can also be informal, in an ad-lib manner, with personal anecdotes, reference to the audience. An insult may also be formal or informal. A formal insulting depends on formal structure and vocabulary as well as calm or deliberate delivery. Thus I shall allow b, to tamper with my affairs!
reputation意思Would be more formal than Keep out of my affairs, b.!
And Sir, you are a swine! Here is a Mark Twain informal insult:
Why, you turnip, if you had laid low and kept dark, there's chances to buy an American hor for mighty little more than you paid for that bloody old foreign relic. In official’s, formal language can be overud and become what is called 'gobbledygook' -- meaningless but important-sounding official language. Such language is verbo and long-winded, full of multi-syllabic words and empty or vague phras, as are often en in official business reports. For instance, instead of making a clear statement that Some were killed. The official spokesman would say something like Although there have been clashes, only in a few cas were the injuries fatal. And instead of saying One should have no racial prejudice. Tho who prefer gobbledygook would say It necessitates a projection of the human mind over the barrier of race.The idea behind this is either to conceal the harsh truth of a matter or to affect a kind of profoundness for a statement. Naturally such practice has been much ridiculed and criticized.
