Karnataka 1st PUC English Workbook Answers Articulation Language Functions<\/h2>\n

We use language for a variety of formal and informal purposes, and specific grammatical structures and vocabulary are often used with each language function. Language functions refer to the purposes in which we use language to communicate. A language function can be defined as “the use to which language is put. the purpose of an utterance rather than the particular grammatical form an utterance takes” There are hundreds of language functions. Let us get familiar with some of them.<\/p>\n

\"1st<\/p>\n

When we meet people we begin the communication process by greeting each other. Sometimes we may have to introduce a friend or a colleague who is with us. At the end we take leave or bid farewell. We use formal language when we meet someone in authority, business associates, strangers and people in official positions. Informal language is used when we meet close friends, relatives and members of the family.<\/p>\n
