APPROPRIATE ENGLISH
Most people believe that there is a very definite set of
English rules which, when followed, will produce correct
English. In reality, this is not true. A better question to ask
is, \"What is appropriate English?\" The answer to that
question depends on many things:
• The relationship of the spsakers (e.g., good friends
speak to each other different than an employer
speaks to employees).
• The situation in which the communication takes
place (e.g., people have to provide different kinds
of information when talking over the telephone
than when talking face-to-face).
• The topic of the communication (e.g., you may
speak differently in telling a joke than you would
in discussing a math principle), etc.
You should aim at teaching students language that will
help them achieve their goals appropriately. For example,
they may want to be able to request help in a store. You
would teach them to do it in such a way that they would
get the help and that the people helping them would not
think that they were rude, stupid, nor snobbish. Overall,
teachers have a tendency to try to teach styles of English
that are too formal for most of the situations their students
will encounter...................................................
