What are three characteristics of informal language?

Here are three characteristics of informal language:

1. Contractions and Slang: Informal language often uses contractions (like "don't" instead of "do not") and slang words or phrases that are specific to a particular group or region. This can make the language more casual and conversational.

2. Simple Sentence Structure: Informal language tends to use shorter, simpler sentences with less complex grammar. This can make it easier to understand and more natural in everyday communication.

3. Personal Pronouns and Conversational Tone: Informal language often uses first and second person pronouns ("I," "you," "we") and adopts a conversational tone. This creates a sense of familiarity and closeness between the speaker and listener.
