Different language functions on this site : http://philosophy.lander.edu/logic/form_lang.html
1. Informative language function: essentially, the communication of information.
2. Expressive language function: reports feelings or attitudes of the writer (or speaker), or of the subject, or evokes feelings in the reader (or listener).
3. Directive language function: language used for the purpose of causing (or preventing) overt actions.
Several different examples on at the source.
