Conclusion
As a result, we should emphasize that the category of formality of the English language does exist. It is extremely significant to distinguish various registers and be able to find out the best communicative strategy according to every particular communicative situation. There are five intonational styles in the English language: Informational style, Conversational style or Familiar, Publicistic style, Academic style or Scientific, Declamatory style or Artistic. This particular division is supported by different degrees of formality or rather familiarity among the speaker and the listener.
Additionally, neutral, formal and informal English have their own features resulted both in phonetics and grammar which should be studied with special attention.
