Mharco asked:

The simple answer is, business English is formal. In other words, proper grammar and excellent spelling are essential in these communiques. Literary English is written for the audience (the readers) and can include the use of slang etc. In other words, literary English is written the way people (the characters or audience) talk in normal day to day conversation.

    My lecturer warned me about my ‘flowery english’ in my Strategic Management term paper. I used big words like ‘treacherous’ instead of ‘false’ and thought that my paper might be inspiring. I then learn that business english – simply put is to express, not impress. =) Mad Cow
