"Register" in linguistics is a term for a variety of speech which is used on specialised occasions. For example, a dentist will use a professional register at work (with dentists jargon, being polite to her patients, etc); at home she will use her wife/mother register (which would be more informal and relaxed, and may involve swearing and uttering endearments to her husband). When she goes shopping, she will probably use an intermediate register.

[Dr. Jamshid Ibrahim]

We can say that register refers to:
1. varying degrees of formality and informality (social register: sex, age, social class...).
2. Special language (jargon) which varies from discipline to discipline (discipline oriented register: the language of law/medicine...)
