Question

He checked his cell for any messages.
How do I make this into formal writing?
Or what can I write to make it formal?

Answer 1

Answer:

;)

Explanation:

It depends on whether ‘cell’ is used to mean a cellphone or a prison cell.

The question mark indicates that the sentence is spoken. If so, then change it to ‘Did he check his cell for my message?’ - or use cellphone or mobile instead.

Change the question mark to a period. Now it’s a formal sentence and fine for any professional situation.

(Get over the idea that you need a lot of gobbledygook to sound professional. Say what you mean, get to the point, and write clearly. That’s what true professionals do.)
