In conversation, 乌龟 (wū guī) is used to refer to the animal, the tortoise. It can be used in a variety of contexts, such as when talking about a pet, a zoo animal, or a character in a story. For example, one might say:
"我家有一只乌龟 (wǒ jiā yǒu yī zhī wū guī) - I have a tortoise at home."
It can also be used in a metaphorical sense, to refer to someone who is slow or cautious. For example, one might say:
"他是个乌龟 (tā shì gè wū guī) - He is a tortoise (i.e. he is slow and cautious)."

The word 乌龟 (wū guī) is used in both formal and informal contexts. It is a commonly used term for "tortoise" in Chinese, and its pronunciation is the same in both formal and informal situations.
