Same message, different clothes
Register is how formal or casual your language is. You write to a teacher differently than to a friend.

Signals of formality
- Contractions: “I’ll” (informal) vs “I will” (formal).
- Vocabulary: “buy” / “purchase”; “ask about” / “enquire”.
- Openings/closings: “Hey!” vs “Dear Ms. Ruiz,” / “Kind regards”.
Which is the most appropriate CLOSING for a formal email to a teacher?
Using contractions like “don’t” and “I’m” makes an essay more formal.
