Effects

when a speaker refers to “people,” he/she denotes more than one person without a particular identity.

Language form

Language form

-deals with the internal grammatical structure of words and phrases, including vocabulary.

“Filipinos”

the speaker is referring to the people who live in the Philippines.

Bark

a tree's outer layer / the sound a dog makes

Examples

match

to pair like items / a stick for making a flame

duration of interaction

duration of interaction

-defined as the length of time that communication lasts.

relationship of the speaker

relationship of the speaker

When there is a particular connection between the speaker and the listener, for example, family members, it will be easier for them to change from one speech context, speech style, speech act, and communicative strategy to another. However, if you are talking to a stranger or a person with higher authority, you become mindful of the communicative style and strategy that you use because you consider the context where you are in. This is an important thing that you have to consider as a speaker.

role and responsibilities as a speaker

-change depending on your listener and the context. If you are a child to your parents, you are a student to your teachers.

role and responsibilities as a speaker

message and the delivery of communication

Example:

If the president talks to the DepEd secretary formally, then one of his family members suddenly calls through phone, the president will change his style of communication to that family member since their relationship is considered intimate.

The president can only discuss topics on education to Sec. Briones, our DepEd secretary, while he can freely talk about all things to his family members as long as he decides to do so.

message and the delivery of communication

Activity:

Scenario (Taken from Example A in Exercise A): The mother knew that her daughter went outside and asked her to change her clothes right away. Her daughter was accompanied by her friend Sheena. Since the mother is concerned about their health, she seriously told Sheena “Go home immediately because you might bring some virus.” This scenario clearly shows that the mother, as the speaker, thinks of her words carefully to not hurt Sheena’s feelings.

Activity

Exercise B

Instructions: Refer to Activity A. Choose five items in which answers are false. Using at least three sentences, explain why those are considered false. Consider the shift in speech context, speech style, speech act, and communicative strategy. Determine also if the

language form, duration of interaction, relationship of speaker-audience, role and responsibilities of the speaker, message, or delivery was affected. Every item corresponds to three points (15 points in total).

Explanation:

The answer to this is False. The mother did not carefully think of her words. The phrase “you might bring some virus” makes the entire message offending to the listener who is Sheena. Because of the shift in speech style, from intimate (mother to daughter) to casual (mother to Sheena), and the communicative strategy used (restriction), the mother did not become mindful of the delivery of her words, message, and her roles and responsibilities as the speaker. This can also affect the relationship of the speaker (mother) to the listener (Sheena). If Sheena got really offended, she would not visit the house of her friend anymore and would not have good communication with her mother’s friend and friend anymore.
