Question 3

Is "log on" formal or informal?

Accepted Answer

"log on" is register-neutral — appropriate in both casual and formal contexts. Common in both British and American English. Slightly more associated with connecting to a network or system as a whole (rather than a specific account). Interchangeable with 'log in' in most everyday contexts. May sound slightly dated to younger users who prefer 'log in' or 'sign in'.
