II. INTRODUCTORY CONCEPT

You know how important communication is to our lives. Through television,

radio, internet, and other forms of media; information can be transferred from one
source to multiple receivers, but it can also be just for the people around you, your
friends, and your family and even to yourself
With the varied destination and purpose of communication, it is important to
know what speech styles and contexts you can use to deliver your message
successfully.
In this lesson, you will learn some tips on how to use different speech styles
to effectively communicate with others and to yourself.

READ AND LEARN: Types of Speech Style

1. Intimate – This style is private, which occurs between or among close family
members or individuals. The language used in this style may not be shared in
public.

2. Casual – This style is common among peers and friends. Jargon, slang, or the
vernacular language are used.

3. Consultative – This style is the standard one. Professional or mutually
acceptable
language is a must in this style. Examples of situations are communication
between
teachers and students, employers and employees, doctor and patient, judge and
lawyer, or President and his/her constituents.

4. Formal – This style is used in formal settings. Unlike the consultative style, this
is
one-way. Examples are sermons by priests and ministers, State of the Nation
Address of the President, formal speeches, or pronouncements by judges.

5. Frozen – This style is “frozen” in time and remains unchanged. It mostly occurs
in ceremonies. Common examples are the Preamble to the Constitution, Lord’s
Prayer, and Allegiance to country or flag.

Type of Speech According to Purpose:

Informative speech varies depending on the topic. These are speeches about
objects or people, processes, events, concepts. The primary purpose of this type
of
speech is to inform and provide knowledge to the listeners. The lectures of your
teachers are the best examples of this type.

Entertainment speech aims to share goodwill, joy, and pleasure to the audience.
The primary goal is to make the audience relax, enjoy, and even laugh. This
means
that you, the speaker, are expected to be friendly and relaxed, but still courteous
during the speech delivery. Moreover, you should know your audience well in order
to entertain them effectively. The humorous speeches of comedians and
performers
are the best example of this type.

Persuasive speech is the form of communication that people of diverse

backgrounds mostly engage in. This kind of speech can center on any arguably
interesting topic under the sun. When you deliver your persuasive speech, your
primary goal is to influence the thoughts, feelings, actions, and behaviors or
attitudes
of your listeners (Gamble & Gamble, 2012). Likewise, you also aim to change their
perception and convince them that your argument is more important, practical,
attainable, or feasible. In essence, you—as a persuasive speaker—advocate for
whatever your message is. The campaign speeches of the running candidates for
government posts are the best examples of this type.

Types of Speech According to Delivery:

Manuscript speech is writing and delivering a speech word for word. You read or
glance upon your manuscript or a copy of your speech while delivering it.

This method is most advantageous to Public figures. Since public figures are
always constrained by a hectic schedule, they need ghost writers. The President’s
State of the Nation Address (SONA) is a concrete example of this situation. Media
personalities and speakers on radio and television always battle with time limits.

ADORA A. LLENARESAS, T-III, Salvacion NHS

 For example, a televised panel discussion about a social issue may require radio
and TV anchors to critically choose and refine the words of their speech in
advance. Moreover, spokespersons for government and private organizations also
use this type of speech since this public speaking role requires a great deal of
contemplation and preparation.

Memorized speech requires you to commit the speech to memory so that you do
not bring your notes when delivering it. As with the manuscript speech, you also
run
the risk of sounding mechanical during a memorized delivery. For this reason,
keep
your memorized speech short and work harder on your facial expressions and the
tone of your voice.
Memorizing a speech can help you achieve a smooth and effortless delivery. You
do not need to focus on notes or a manuscript. You can concentrate on
maintaining eye contact with your audience, establishing rapport, and interacting
with your audience.

Impromptu speech is delivered with little or no time for preparation. In most

instances, you are called to speak at the spur of the moment because you are
expected to be knowledgeable about the subject.

Example: Your teacher assigned you to read an article before the class starts.
Then, during the class you were asked to deliver an impromptu speech about what
you have learned from the article.

Extemporaneous speech is a planned and prepared speech. Unlike memorized

or
manuscript speeches which are delivered word-for-word, an extemporaneous
speech is delivered with the help of short notes and a clear outline. Most people
who
speak in public often prefer the extemporaneous method of delivery. Although it
might look more challenging than the manuscript or memorized speeches, it is
more
spontaneous and personal.
