Scolarly-Trite
Scolarly: Yes so it is a blunder how some students just sit, and take up so much information. They are only in 7th grade, and can name syntax, imagery, language, and detail. I one tell me what pedantic meant.
Sensuous: This bat is amazing. It is so beautiful and I bet it hits so smooth.
Simple: The bat does look good. I like it.
Slang: That's sweet man. I'm digging that bat dog.
Symbolic: The American flag is a great symbol of the US.
Trite: O my goodness, like that makes me so mad. He shouldn't be acting like that. Becky you need to do something about his actions, like he is mean.

Plain - Provincial
Plain: Today was just an ok day. I played baseball.
Poetic: I was thinking to myself today, about going and eating some hay. I don't know why i was feeling this way.
Precise: The quarterback stepped back over the 50 yard line, through a pass to the receiver over the middle in the inzone. The Panthers won the football game by 7.
Pretentious: So I think it is no big deal to graduate highschool. I mean who needs to anyways?
Provincial: Hey looky there. That my wife Charlene. Ittent she perty. I met her yesterday at the store.

Idiomatic - Literal
Idiomatic: Today I went outside, and it was raining so hard, I thought it was raining cats and dogs. I then thought to go get a jacket because that was the smart thing to do.
Insipid: Today was boring. All day i just sat around and watched tv. I was even thinking about just laying in bed the whole day but i thought it would be best to just go watch tv.
Jargon: It seemed like nothing worked today. I went to work on this woman's microwave, but I couldn't figure out what was wrong. I knew i had to connect the magnitron tube to get the radiation heat to work, but i couln't get it right.
Learned: I have had a swell day. The specific specifications of the process have gone over farely well.
Literal: Today my mom was straight forward with me. It made me sort of upset. She told me to take out the trash and put it in the bin and then clean up my room.

Exact: Yesterday I played twister with a group of friends. Jesse started, and spun the spinner clockwise past red, yellow, and blue, until it landed on green. I was told to put my right hand over Alicia's back on to the red circle behind her head. My finger accedently poked him in his left eye in the process.
Figurative: Yesterday my dad told me something that his dad always told him he said, "Life was like a game of baseball. You are always going to fail 7 out of 10 times, but its when you succeed you should capitalize on your success."
Formal: Today, many civilians had a grasp on the king's orders. It was able to be viewed from afar that the peasants were working specifically on the task at hand, but were assembling vehicles for transportation in an intermittent manner.
Grotesque: Today I had the opportunity to intern a teacher at a local elementary school. The children in the class were making horrific shrills that sounded like the beheading of a pig. There shreaks and shrills drove me away from teaching, like a madman that has gone insane and drove a bus off a cliff.
Homespun: Well today folks, I had a chance to ride that there horse around. It was so much fun I wouldn't leave. People would ask me for a chance to ride, and I told them folks they could eat my dust because I ain't gettin off this here horse.

Cultured-Euphemistic
The baseball field questions:
Cultured: Last year i hit an average of .330, with three triples and ten doubles. I usually hit more than that the pitchers must have got really good.
Detached: (Dr. Kendrick's little yankee voice. This is a small nerd)Ok, i don't really have time for this. I'm in a hurry the season is coming and i have to train to make the team. Sorry, bye.
Emotional: (aka Amy Benfield) I don't like to talk about baseball. I'm very emotional. Last year i got cut and didn't make the team. I tried to justify myself but coach is such a meany. How could he cut me i did my best. (starts to cry) I hate baseball!!!
Esoteric: Baseball is an amazing game. It is far more complex then just hitting a ball with a bat. Baseball is a game where proper angles of the ball are thrown to put a weird propelling spin to strike out the batter on any count rather it is a full count or 0-2.
Euphemistic: Well i can throw a mid 80's fastball, but im sure there are others that throw so much harder. My breaking ball is not too good either but its not the worst on the team.

Artificial-Connotative
Artificial day: So today i saw this add saying that a bamboo bat is ensured to never break. It uses the strongest grain of bamboo ever cut.
Bombastic day: I have found out that i am the best baseball player to ever live. When you hit a hundred homeruns in one season no one can be beter.
Colloquial day: I was sitting in a room, and a boy said,"What's up dude?" I then answered, "Not too much bro." His best friend was relaxing in the chair beside the window and told us to,"be quiet" because he was trying to sleep. That wasn't too nice of him.
Concrete day: Today was just the same old day, except i shattered a glass cup into a million pieces. Someone shouldn't have put it on the side of the the maple wood table in the first place.
Connotative day: The family road in the car for ten hours. They were on vacation to the mountains. The little kids were chilling in the back watching a movie.
