Worksheet for sorting formal and informal vocabulary words.

To solve this, we need to match each informal word with its formal equivalent from the word cloud. The example given is:

Informal: begin → Formal: commence

Now let’s go through the rest of the words in the cloud and pair them up.

Words in the cloud:
- discover
- correct
- request
- accept
- find out
- wrong
- reject
- say no
- begin (already used)
- ask for
- commence (already used as formal for “begin”)
- incorrect
- say yes
- right

We’ll group them by meaning:

1. say yes ↔ accept
(When you say yes to something, you’re accepting it.)

2. say no ↔ reject
(Saying no means you’re rejecting something.)

3. find out ↔ discover
(Finding out information is the same as discovering it.)

4. ask for ↔ request
(Asking for something formally is making a request.)

5. wrong ↔ incorrect
(Wrong and incorrect mean the same thing — not correct.)

6. right ↔ correct
(Right and correct are synonyms — both mean accurate or true.)

Let’s double-check that every word is used exactly once:

Used so far:
- Informal: begin, say yes, say no, find out, ask for, wrong, right → 7 total
- Formal: commence, accept, reject, discover, request, incorrect, correct → 7 total

All 14 words are paired. Perfect.

Now fill the table:

| Informal | Formal |
|--------------|-------------|
| begin | commence |
| say yes | accept |
| say no | reject |
| find out | discover |
| ask for | request |
| wrong | incorrect |
| right | correct |

Final Answer:
Informal: begin, say yes, say no, find out, ask for, wrong, right
Formal: commence, accept, reject, discover, request, incorrect, correct
