1. Locutionary Speech Act • This act happens

with the utterance of a sound, a word, or
even a phrase as a natural unit of speech.

something itself, but the act of saying
something with the intention of • stating an
opinion, confirming, or denying something •
making a prediction, a promise, a request •
issuing an order or a decision • giving a
piece of advice or permission •

presented by the different cast?

The communicative strategies that are presented by

casts are nominative, turn-taking, topic-shifting, and
repair.
Good. In watching the video, how does the
nomination strategy acted by cast?
The nomination strategy is acted by casts like

In the video sir, topic-shifting is like changing the
topic or jumping into another topic.
Very good. And lastly, the repair strategy, how does it

Sir, the repair strategy from the name itself is to fix
the conversation using the hearing sense and
comprehension of both speakers.

the speech acts they represent.
However, a conversation may be complex at times;
that is why some people get lost along the way and
misunderstand each other.
Do you agree class?

Cohen (1990) states that strategies must be used to

start and maintain a conversation. Knowing and
applying grammar appropriately is one of the most
basic strategies to maintain a conversation.
The following are some strategies that people use
when communicating.

Nomination
Please read. - A speaker carried out a nomination to
collaboratively and productively establish a
topic. When you employ this strategy, you
try to open a topic with the people you are
talking to.

Turn-taking

which people decide who takes the
conversational floor.

Sometimes people are given unequal opportunities to

talk because others take much time during the
conversation. But the primary idea is to give all
communicators a chance to speak.

Topic Shifting
Please read - Topic shifting, as the name suggests,
involves moving from one topic to another.

In other words, it is where one part of a conversation

ends and where another begins.
Make sure that the previous topic was nurtured
enough to generate adequate views.
Repair

problems in speaking, listening, and

to talk at the same time, give way, and appreciate
others’ initiative to set the conversation back to its
topic.

linked to a particular concern, occurrence,
circumstances, and audience. There 4 types of
communicative strategies namely; nomination, turn-
taking, topic-shifting, and repair. Nomination is a type
of strategy where the speaker carried out a nomination
to collaboratively and productively establish a topic.
When you employ this strategy, you try to open a
topic with the people you are talking to. Turn-taking
pertains to the process by which people decide who
takes the conversational floor. Topic shifting, as the
name suggests, involves moving from one topic to
another. Repair refers to how speakers address the
problems in speaking, listening, and comprehending
that they may encounter in a conversation.
