Аннотация:
This article explores how readers can learn both formal and casual English through characters in stories. Language in literature often mirrors real social communication, offering examples of how people speak in different contexts. The study focuses on how fictional dialogue helps learners recognize distinctions between formal and informal English, such as vocabulary, tone, grammar, and context. This article uses a qualitative approach to examine how learners can effectively use character dialogue as a natural and motivational tool for studying the nuances of English
