SPEECH CONTEXT

 Speech Context is the way people use to

communicate and transmit Message orally or
verbally. It can be Interpersonal where you
can talk wit other people or intrapersonal
where you can talk to yourself especially
when thinking and making decisions.
1. Intrapersonal
 a type of communication between and among
people and establishes personal relationship.
According to Solomon and Theiss, 2013: “Inter”
– highlights how interpersonal communication
connects people. “Personal” – unique qualities as
a person matter during interpersonal
communication.

 Intrapersonal Communication may be seen in

situations involving talking to or writing to
oneself, even thinking to oneself.
Example of intrapersonal Communication

 Self talk, either aloud or via thought. We often

do this without being aware of it. Such as
when one may ask oneself.
“ Where did I leave my keys?”
2. Interpersonal
 a type of communication that centers on one
person where the speakers acts both as the
Sender and the Receiver. The message is
made up of your own thoughts and your own
feelings. The channel is your brain which
processes what you are thinking and feeling.
There is feedback in the sense that as you
talk to yourself, you discard certain ideas and
replace them with something else.
 Interpersonal Communication is
between people. Intrapersonal
communication is a conversation
which you have with yourself or which
a person has inside with Self.
Example of Interpersonal Communication

 Speaking on the phone: whether we call a

friend or a taxi, we are engaging in
interpersonal communication. Tone of voice
is as important as words when we are talking
to someone verbally.
 Dyadic communication occurs when two
people are conversing directly to one
another. It is a form of interpersonal
communication that refers to the
quantitative quality of a communicative
relationship between two people.
 Dyadic is also interchangeably referred to as
interpersonal communication. There are also
many other types of communication
corresponding to quantitative and qualitative
definitions.

 Dyadic communication can be further defined by

its qualitative characterizations, namely how
interpersonal it is. Because of this, some dyadic
communications can be personal or intimate in
their nature while other forms of dyadic
communication can actually be impersonal.
Examples:
• You provided comfort to a friend who was
feeling down.
• You offered you own feedback on someone
who was performing.
• You were confessing your feelings for
someone.
 Involves at least three but not more than
twelve people engaging in a face to face
interaction to achieve desired goal. All
participants can freely share their ideas in a
loose and open discussion. There are
different definitions as to how many make up
a small group.
Examples:
• You are in a organizational meeting which
aims to address the concerns of people in
your community.
• You are having a discussion with you group
mates on how to finish the assigned tasks.
• You and your friends are planning on where
to spend you vacation.
 Public communication happens when
individuals and groups engage in dialogue in
the public sphere in order to deliver a
message to a specific audience. Public
speaking events, newspaper editorials and
billboard advertisements are a few forms of
public communication.

 Requires you to deliver the message in front

of people.
 Example:

• You deliver a graduation speech in front of

your fellow graduates.
• You participate in a declamation, oratorical
contest or debate watched by many people.
 Communication that takes place through
television, radio, newspaper, magazines,
books, billboards, internet and other types of
media.

 Mass communication differs from other forms

of communication, such as interpersonal
communication or organizational
communication, because it focuses on
particular resources transmitting information
to numerous receivers.
Examples:
• You are a student Journalist articulating your
stand on current issues through the school
newspaper.
• You are a radio jock reporting the facts about
your community.
 Refers to the interaction of members along
the links is an Organizational structure.

 Is the study of communication within

organizations. The flow of communication
could be either formal or informal.
Formal Organization
 uses the proper channels graphically
illustrated by an organizational chart. Memos,
announcements, and reports are passed
along to the members of the organization
following the chain of command. An example
is a memo on salary increase, which is issued
by the company president, sent along to the
vice president, then is passed on to the
managers, and, finally, handed on the
supervisors before reaching the employees.
Informal Organization
 bypasses the links, skips forward or backwards,
or even goes sideways just to achieve the same
goal: for example, to pass on a memo,
announcement, or a report. The memo on salary
increase will probably reach the employees faster
than the formal announcement because the
secretary who typed the memo told another
secretary who told the advisor who share it with
co-workers. This is not to say that one is more
important than the other, or the one is bad, the
other not. Both of Organizational Communication
are necessary for the organization to survive.
 Is the exchange of concepts, traditions,
values, and practices between and among
people of different nationalities and ways of
life. It goes beyond showcasing folk dances,
local songs, and native delicacies.
 Intercultural communication is the study and
application of knowledge on “cultural
perceptions and symbol systems” of people
belonging to different cultures.
 It is the study and application of knowledge
on “cultural perceptions and symbol systems”
of people belonging to different cultures.
 The intended meaning of any message differs
when encoded by a person of a certain
culture and decoded by someone of the
other. The different meanings of symbols in
different culture also vary making the
interpretation difficult.
 While applying inter-cultural communication,
it refers to making people aware and able to
adopt others’ cultures when they
communicate with them and thus have a
meaningful communication.

Examples of intercultural communication can

consist of many factors:
 Body Language: in the United States, families
normally wave hello to greet each other and
that’s all. In Hispanic culture, families they
are more inclined to hug and give a kiss on
the cheek when they interact- or greeting in
some Asian cultures may consist of a bow.
 Language Barrier & culture education: this is an issue
that is most conflicted when two cultures or groups
try to communicate. They may not speak the same
language so they will try their best to point out or use
hand signals that get their point across. Lacking
education in how different cultures communicate or
differentiate their social norms, they will not be able
to succeed in communicating with the other persons.
It helps to be educated in other cultures traditions,
social norms, etc because this is what intercultural
communication is all about. Knowing what to say or
how to act and knowing it’s appropriate meanings
will make one most successful in this type of
communication.
