The book explores the most crucial concepts of text types in English, termed as registers, genres, and styles. Presenting a comprehensive framework, it discusses the distinct linguistic features and social functions associated with different text categories. It highlights the ways in which register variation is linked to social context and the variety of communicative effects produced by texts with diverse purposes. By integrating extensive empirical research, the book aims to provide insights into effective communication strategies and the interplay of language and its functions.
