| Joos' 5 Levels of Formality | Frozen, formal, consultative, casual and intimate |
| Frozen (Joos) | Also called static register, it's printed, unchanging language and wording is exactly the same when spoken (e.g. the Pledge of Allegiance of the USA) |
| Formal (Joos) | One way participation; no interruption; technical vocab or exact definitions are important; includes presentations or intros between strangers (e.g. This assignment is not acceptable in its present format) |
| Consultative (Joos) | Two way participation; background info is provided - prior knowledge is not assumed. Backchannel behavior is common, interruptions are allowed (e.g. teacher/student "I can't accept this in its current format") |
| Casual (Joos) | In group of friends and acquaintances; no background info provided; ellipsis and slang common (e.g. This work is a no-go can't take it) |
| Intimate (Joos) | Non-public, intonation more important than working or grammar; private vocab. Also includes non verbal messages. Most common among family and close friends |
