What are they mean?
I found this sentence from a post here and want to ask you what the word means. I hope I got it word for word.
Kind of and sort of are expressions from a very relaxed and informal register of English.
I frequently see the word "registry," can you tell me what it is in terms of how it can be used in the English language.

You can have a formal register (could you, would, if you please, dear sir....), informal register (please, can you, call me...), professional register e.g for a doctor (stetoscope, patient's notes, prescription)...
For example, if I go to the doctor and tell hi

Take writing for example. A report is written in a formal register whereas a le
