I can't do this! I am going to just take the zero and drop the class!
What are you yelling for? We do not yell in this house.
I just lost all of the progress I had made on my essay because the computer crashed.
Okay, well email your teacher asking for an extension if you need it.
Okay, if you really think they will give the extra time then I will try it. Thank you for the advice, dad.
A student is in his bedroom working having trouble with an assignment. Due to this, he is contemplating dropping the course. Off-screen, his father hears the commotion.
"Professor, due to technical errors I will be unable to complete the essay by the due date. If possible, could I have an extension? Thank you, Larry Ramsay"That will work.
The language is one of intimacy. The student is unlikely to speak to anyone else about these issues and use aggression than someone they are close to.
"I think we can make that work. Will two days extra be a sufficient amount? Thank you for the notice, Professor Wagley."
Due to them being family at home, it is okay for an intimate language.
"Two days is a great amount of time. Thank you again, Larry Ramsay."Perfect, I now have enough time to complete the essay.. again.
The student, after taking time to calm down, is to email his teacher from his room still. The person in which he will be speaking is his professor over email.
The register used between the two is formal. It is often used when speaking to a colleague or someone you are not as close with to convey a certain seriousness or respect.
The relationship between the two is that of teacher and student. They must speak in a way that is respectful to each other and lacks much personal touch.
