E. Lesson Proper

Types of Speech Style

The context dictates and affects the way people communicate, which results in various speech
styles. According to Joos (1968), there are five speech styles. These are (1) intimate, (2) casual,
(3) consultative, (4) formal, and (5) frozen. Each style dictates what appropriate language or
vocabulary should be used or observed.

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.
