What Have I Learned So Far?

1. In your own words, explain the five speech styles commonly used in various communication
situations.
- INTIMATE speech style is a style that is commonly used in conversation between two
communicators that are much closed to each other like your Grandparents, Parents and cousins
because they have the same amount of information to be shared with each other.
- CASUAL speech style is a style that is used by your friends or other people to share information’s
to each other but they don’t have close relations to each other. For example is, an old woman asking
for directions.
- CONSULTATIVE speech style, this kind of style is usually used by professionals. It is commonly
short but unconstrained. For example is, a Dentist talking to her patient.
- FORMAL speech style is used by a person who wants to say something straight to the point. The
speaker is prepared on what he/she would say to the audience. Example; The President delivering
his SONA.
- FROZEN speech style, this kind of style is used in respectful occasions or ceremonies. The
audience is not allowed to give their feedback nor to ask questions. Example; The Senator pledging
in front of the President.

3. Your Classmates

Hey? I just want to share the article that I’ve red online about this preamble of 1987
Philippine Constitution. I’m amazed by the fact that even that we are a free nation we still need a
reliable leader who will lead us into the right path and a government who can develop and make
our country a better place to live in. For this to happen each one of us must be disciplined.
