2. style: Manner indicating prominent linguistic features, devices or patterns, most (or least) frequently occur in a particular text of a particular variety of language. 3. register语域:Registers are language variations that are associated with the different use to which they are put. Such varieties do not depend on the people who use the language, but on the occasion when it is used.
4. field of discourse: the linguistic reflection of the purposive role of the language user, --the type of social activity the language user is engaged in doing in the situation in which the text has occurred. That is to say, the language the user uses will show what his/her language is 'about', what experience he/she is verbalizing, what is 'going on' in the speech event.
5. tenor of discourse : the linguistic reflection of the personal relationships between speaker/writer and hearer/reader—called PERSONAL TENOR(个人基调), and of what the user is trying to do with language for/to his or her addressee (s) -- called FUNCTIONAL TENOR（功能基调）. 6. mode of discourse: the linguistic reflection of the relationship that the language user has to the medium of communication. 7. foregrounding Foregrounding, giving unusual prominence to one element or property of a text, relative to other less noticeable aspects. According to the theories of Russian Formalism, literary works are special by virtue of the fact that they foreground their own linguistic status, thus drawing attention to how they say something rather than to what they say: poetry „deviates‟ from everyday speech and from prose by using meter, surprising metaphors, alliteration, and other devices by which its language draws attention to itself. 8. deviation
Deviation : a variation that deviates from the standard or norm; the breaking of normal rules of linguistic structure; violation of the norms; Departure from general order 9. loose sentence松散句

As the language becomes more formal, more impersonal, more specialized in certain subject matter, it tends to become less accessible to the ordinary reader or listener. 13. impersonality
Impersonality reflects the extent to which the producer of a text avoids reference to himself/herself or to the reader. 14. degrees of formality
Formality refers to the way in which the style or tone of language will vary in appropriateness according to the social context.

(1) How languages expressed the social distance between the speakers and their different role-relationships;
(2) How face-work, that is, the attempt to establish, maintain, and save face during conversation, is carried out in a speech community. 16. iamb抑扬格

Texts requiring near-universal understanding generally need an index less than 8.
