Which best identifies the way this conversation is different from more formal, written standard english? dan: "grace, i don't care if you can't get here until monday, as long as you're planning on staying at least a week." grace: " you dan, i'll be there as soon as possible. it'll probably be monday evening." a. the conversation uses slang twice. b. the conversation uses contractions five times. c. the words in the conversation rely on humor to be understood. d. the words in the conversation are too formal for spoken english.

b. The conversation uses contractions five times.

Formal language is typically reserved for professional and academic settings such as business meetings, business emails, job applications, resumes, school essays, school discussions, etc.  Informal language can appear in conversations with friends and family, texts, blogs, social media, etc.  Informal language is characterized by use of slang, idioms, contractions, humor.  That said, the only informal characteristic present within the conversation is the use of contractions (such as don't for do not or I'll for I will).
