The tone is the writer's attitude toward the subject, expressed through word choice, sentence structure, and punctuation. Students can identify it by analyzing these elements and understanding the emotion or intent behind them.
A formal tone is polite, professional, and objective, often used in academic or business writing. An informal tone is casual, conversational, and may include slang or colloquial expressions, suitable for personal communication.
Adjusting the tone helps match the intended audience, purpose, and context, ensuring the message is conveyed appropriately and making the writing more engaging and appropriate for its purpose.
