Informal, spoken-like language
So I'm sitting there, right, and just chillin' and all of a sudden there's this BANG, like, this insanely loud noise and I just freak out! I screamed and the dog started barking and I was just like, what the? I had to go and try to find out what happened but then I realised the tree in the front yard fell over because of the storm. |
More formal, written-like language
After an extreme storm, a tree in my front yard collapsed. At first there was a loud bang and the noise shocked me. My dog was also barking. When I investigated, I saw the tree in the front yard had fallen over. |
