formal
Formal is like wearing your best clothes for a special event. Formal means following certain rules, like saying ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ when you talk to someone, especially if you don’t know them well. It’s like when you play a game and follow the rules so everyone has fun. When you’re formal, you are being extra polite and careful, like when you write a card to your grandma and use your best handwriting.
Think of formal like building a tall tower with blocks. You have to place each block carefully and in the right order so it stands tall and doesn’t fall. Being formal is like making sure you use the right words and actions so everything goes smoothly and everyone understands each other.
Imagine a tea party with fancy cups and saucers. You hold your pinky out while sipping tea because it’s the polite way to do it. Being formal is like knowing when to do things in a special way, like using a napkin instead of your sleeve. It’s about making people feel respected and important by doing things in a neat and proper way.
