Mostly all opening ceremony addresses are meticulously organized. The president's official
inauguration was the inaugural address, and its purpose was to declare political values and
encourage the public to adopt and support them. Effective speech construction and the use of
rhetorical techniques are required to make the speech engaging, persuasive, and appealing to the
audience. In order to increase the impact of his inaugural speech, John F. Kennedy used techniques
such as lexical cohesions.

In his speech, he employs three main rhetorical strategies: parallelism, repetition, and pathos, which
he used to persuade the audience. Using these three techniques, Kennedy was able to construct a
powerful exposition that persuaded the majority of Americans to regard him as the new president.
Analyzing revealed that certain words were repeated, such as' man' and 'human,' in which he clearly
directs his speech to the people and the audience. Also, the words 'globe and world' were used as
synonyms in his speech, which added much more depth to his speech about who his audience is and
the target audience, which is all over the world.

Numerous texts are also utilized multiple times in this text. Words such as forms, which appear twice
in the text, man, which appears three times, human, which appears four times, belief, forefathers,
weakness, and so on are examples. The speaker successfully delivered or conveyed his message to
the audience by using repetitions. According to the text, his speech encourages everyone,
particularly citizens, to participate by contributing their talents to the common good, and that
politicians should encourage them.

Thus, John F. Kennedy's inauguration address is a well-written and skillfully executed work of
oratory. Only a few of the stylistic tools used in the text to hold the reader's attention and clearly
and succinctly explain the concepts under discussion are repetition, parallelism, rhetorical questions,
and anaphora. The use of lexical cohesion techniques such as repetition, synonymy, antonym,
hyponymy, and collocation also contributes to the text's sense of coherence and unity. The essay as
a whole employs persuasive and eloquent language that effectively communicates the main point of
the speech.
