Angel Of Love:
I know this is a bit not too thing to debate on but i was wondering that what if that now all big big people also uses jargons(okay=k, going to=gonna) then why not use then in formal letter too why only in informal when everyone understands it...

astarmathsandphysics:
By jargon I understand pointless high blown prose

Angel Of Love:
no Mr.Paul jargons are the short forms we use while chatting like i said we say i am going for a film people write it as i am going for  a film but am gonna go 4 a film this is jargons..

$tyli$h Executive:
Jargon means writing in a formal way I think.

Of course formality is important in corporate and business documents. Having a formal style and theme in all your documents will ensure your customers, suppliers and other stakeholders get a good image of the business concerned. If you write 'I'm gonna go to your office' it represents a casual image of your business.

Sorry, have little time to explain. Just read...  ;)
