Comentário do professor
A mensagem apresenta marcas claras de registro informal: uso de abreviações e grafias não padronizadas (tonite, tomoz, Ur, dunno), ausência de pontuação e maiúsculas regulares, e vocabulário coloquial (fancy, meet up). Esses elementos indicam economia de escrita própria de mensagens rápidas entre conhecidos.
Trata‑se de estratégias típicas da e‑communication para agilizar a interação e transmitir familiaridade: contracções, elipses e formas reduzidas tornam o texto mais imediato e menos formal.
Reescrito de forma padrão: "Hi, I did two shifts tonight and am off to bed. But I still fancy the film tomorrow. Are you still ok for this? How about meeting at, I don’t know, 6 or so outside the Chinese takeaway."
Portanto, a comunicação é bastante informal.
